Random banning

I have been banned from two servers now and i have no idea why, it says for team killing. I was banned from tactical gamer ages ago could be more than a year ago (so i can't remember the sequence of events which led to the banning but i do know it wasn't my fault anyway as i am usually well behaved! :roll

... So i just lived with the ban since there are plenty of other good servers. But a few nights ago i joined thors server and at the beginning it automatically switched me to the other team, but i then had a spawn time of 5000 odd seconds. So i quit and tried to rejoin, when i rejoin it came back with the banned for team killing message.
Just thought i'd let you know, seems like a bug. But also could someone post the site for 'Thors' server so i can explain the situation and get the ban lifted.
Thanks

Was the server full? As in, 62 or 63 players? Some servers have a script that allows clanmembers to join, without the need of making room for them manually. The message you get is something like "you've been kicked from the server because of excessive teamkilling".
Perhaps that's it?

- Team switch - most likely auto/smart balance, or an admin moving you to keep balance.
- Large spawn delay - change kit and try again.
- Banned for TK - almost certainly server full message. Misleading, but nothing can be done about it. Try to rejoin when the server is at 61 or less.

It's advisable to be ALWAYS well behaved. Only takes one minute of madness to get perma banned, and excessively bad behaviour will most likely see you banned from most of the popular servers all at once.

Are you absolutely sure it was a ban, and permanent? Try joining any of the servers you mentioned. It may have been temporary, just to make room for someone due to an autoscript.

The 5000 second spawn is most likely trying to spawn with Officer kit when not Commander or SL of a squad with 2+ others in.

That sounds like that could be it but i haven't been able to join tactical game for over a year... i have tried several times and still get that message.

Pretty sure as I said above, i haven't been able to join tactical gamer for over a year... Just out of curiosity, if you are banned from tactical gamers server are u automatically banned from all there servers. I regularly played on their ARMA server...
Thanks for the replies
