BF3 ??
I don't have the game and only played BF3 on my PS3 but why can't DICE/EA implement code so that admins can only kick before a game starts or has ended, not during it? So there might be someone just standing there for one round, the chances are this would be the minority and most are genuinely trying to play the game properly.
Fortunately admin kicking on the PS3 whilst annoying was quite rare.
Good idea. I've said it before and I'll say it again - I don't think server owners should be able to just kick and ban people freely at their hearts content. As players are playing for stats it shouldn't be allowed that an Admin can kick somebody just because that person is making their life difficult.
Surely an admin clearing out the opposition to make their lives easier amounts to stats fixing.
Tonight has been the worst night for me since the game launched. So many connection issues, crashes and unplayable lag. I didn't think it had been that bad until tonight, absolutely shocking they release a game like this. Greedy *******s.
Tonight has been a lot more stable for me (no server disconnects).
Unfortunately that's given me time on the maps i've yet to play, most of them are crap.
I used to enjoy Rush in BC2/BF3 and hardly touched conquest but rush in this is awful, played one map where the first round starts on a half broken ship, wtf were they thinking.

plenty of people crying about fairfight on the official forums, seems it can ban you for being too good !
You mean the nM guy, he has been suspected as a dodgy person (wanted to use stronger word there) for ages. He can't TV for shizzle but is laser accurate with the main gun all the way across the map, so accurate he shoots out pilot / gunner from US base to RU base most times. Most comeptitive US teams wouldn't play against them in BF3 as they all knew he was dodgy.
Didn't realise we had so many people on this forum with in depth knowledge of fairfight. It actually looks like a really great system of catching hackers. Sabz was on TS with a few of us on level when the beta came out and she indicated at the time part of the system it uses is similar to the cheat-O-meter / i-stats / cheatometer.hedix websites. As in at least part of it checks your in game stats. For those who admined BF3 server, they would know that these were by far the best tools for catching clever cheats. Pbvious cheats are never the issue, it's the little fudgers with their damage mods / no recoil / no spread hacks that are the worst.

After removing my Xonar, jesus wept this onboard sounds utter trash
Yep, unable to use my xonar DX on the board in sig, (cooler blocks the best slot). Onboard sound on this mobo is pretty poor.
Prior to PB being implemented in Quake 3 I was involved in the development of an alternative anti-cheat system that used pretty much the same algorithms as fairfight - it may even be built from an updated version of that software.
EDIT: As a tool for an admin to use its potentially useful but it needs an admin that actually know how to interpret and use the data as part of their own investigation - it should never ever be used to auto ban or as sole reason for banning.

I'm going to wake up tomorrow and find I've covered my walls in paint in the night, writing this over and over and over again in my sleep..

Manged to get in a game that works but it seems that I have lost all my unlocks and progress, and my experience back to zero hmmmmm
Perhaps it's coincidental but I read the forums regarding crashing when spawning and it seems it only occurs when you double click a spawn point or squad member. To work around it just click once where you want to spawn and once more on the deploy button. Since doing this I haven't crashed once, so fingers crossed.
