Thankyou. I googled the hell out of it but couldnt come up with anything

Vanilla is just normal BF2 and the IO means Infantry Only.
Stat padding
From someone who has two accounts one being a 3 star & the other being around the 40k mark & Only plays on the lower ranked account i beg to differ.
I find that people on Vanilla IO are only interested in Full on war battles & don't give two ***** about stats.
Stat whores were left back in 06 mate it's 08 now & BF2 is just full of Genuine players, damn good players as well, Nobody cares about stats any more.
One thing i do like though is when Clan players invite people on to there servers to play on there own against the inviter & his clan, Proper fair fight that a, You with clan & teamspeak & matey on his own with nowt
I **** clans & know them to be a bunch of weak players who can only play in a gang on there own server with TS as an aid.
I will admit that there will be some Highly skilled players in every clan & i will also say that most of the rest of the clan hide behind them
I've lost count of how many clan servers i have turned over & must admit to it being a past time of mine. Nothing gives me greater pleasure than going on a clan server & turning the public team into the winning team.
As soon as you do this the clan drift away leaving the server all of a sudden having other things to do
Me tea bagging multiple clan members makes the whole process hugely funny for me & my public squad.
Of course i get kicked a lot & banned as well but that is just proof that they cannot beat me & are as weak as i thought.
So in all my experience who do i think are stat padders, ***** clan members that's who as they have the mates the team speak & the server to do it on. even if not stat padding the clans organise the teams so that it is a one sided clan battle against public, In my mind Equally as bad.
Like i said Clans I ****'em.
