Hello,
I play PR with my friends on lot of different servers, but we wanna play on Virginia 24/7 Muttrah City (cool map

) but every when one of me friends join the server it shows him that he is banned for TK's. It;'s immpossible because he had never played on Virginia before. Any ideas?
PS. PR RULEZ!

If they have invisible private slots like TG, thats the message it shows, instead of the "This server is full and you aren't on the reserved slots list" message.
Though who knows.

Most probably because the server is "full" around 62 players. They keep "reserved slots", so supporting members (players who pay for the server) can join whenever they want and a non-paying member is kicked automatically.
I hope this clears up the confusion

Usually the message just says "server is full", not "banned for TKs".
At boberczus-It could be that your friends might have played there once awhile back but just dont remember and TK'd someone and got perm banned for it. You should go to server feedback part of forums and find the virginia server thread and ask them or go to their website and ask them there to lift the ban. Only they can do something.

Im still somewhat confused. If the server is full at 62, and it's out of 64, why does the server kick for s supporting member when it has 2 slots to fill? Shouldn't it just let the supporting member in without the need of kicking someone who is enjoying the game?

I dont think they kick people out of the server. The casual players cant join when its 62/64(2), only members can. Only when it is below 62, they can start joining. In some servers I saw 4 reserved slots. So for casual players its really full at 60.

Maybe only TG. But for everything else it says what it should.

If you don't remember being banned for TKs its usually just a bug

This counts for more servers, not just TG.
If the server is at 62 players and ou get the horrible "you've been banned because of excessive tk-ing" (or so) warning, it almost always is the case of the server running custom Python scripts to enable contributing members to join.
Perhaps it would be more friendly if that warningmessage would be extended a bit, to add a line explaining the "full server" thing.

It is the default BF2 kick message and as long as that is used to clear the spot (because it is reliable) the message won't be changing on those servers.

It will if we would change it in the localization files (unsure if that's what we want, though
may solve some confusion here and there).

When I auto deploy and I almost get into TG or another reserved slots server but then someone takes my spot, it will say "You have been banned from this server from excessive teamkilling or an admin...etc" So when you and your friends try to get in and the server is at 62, just auto deploy on server info at 62 and you guys will eventually get in.

Do this.
Bans and kicks are not to be discussed on these forums but instead should be taken to the relevant clan's website.
Locked.
