Not everyone lives near a crpg server

As long as they try to help the Team, means no peasant armor and no wild running around without any sense, they should be allowed to take part.

I saw alot high ping chinese players always trying their best and standing in shield wall on DTV for example, so no, no autokick.

I don't mean shielders in shieldwall. I mean leechers like EstocXN (I don't remember the name exactly), who always tries to hit some bots, dies and teamhits a lot. That is probably why did I put the "Just let people pollkicking them" choice".

Wow. This is the same as saying hey we need people for a war but you two look like you dont have ripped abs and fucking guns as arms so I'm afraid you'll have to embark on that train to Auschwitz just over there so you get a free shower afterwards when you arrive.

what happens if your playing with good ping then you get a lag spike? people will be dropping like flies..

Uh, you sir are a douche. There happen to be a ton of regions where 250 ping may be the best that they can achieve. They can still be effective albeit to a reduced level. They can be as effective as anyone else as siege/engineer teams in strategus and therefore deserve the same rights to level up in the battle servers as everyone else. I happen to know for a fact that several high ping players can get 2:1 kdr's in strat battles in melee. Not to mention they can also play ranged and rain death on their enemies nearly as effectively as low ping players.

So I must say, hell no to that suggestion.

If you cant stand simple analogies you obviously dwell in the past. At this stage.

Oh silly me, I forgot how being prevented from playing an internet game is in any way comparable to a stain on this world's history which affected millions.  Do you want to compare this triviality to some other major catastrophe as well?  I'm sure Stalin and Pol Pot want some use.

90% of the time i see a 400 ping leecher they are at the bottom with either 0 or - score, and more often than not they just suicide. I dunno, having people with such high ping even if they try they still really cant do much.. But i guess its still considered as just being a peasant, but suicide charging etc is kickable right? Maybe its just admins who need to be active in this.. and on the other hand i would rather have them die early than trying to help me fight.

There is no need to get all cocky. I just mentioned that because the idea seems pretty fascist to me - cleansing the servers of those who can't play as well as the others, isn't that what the National Socialists did in Germany to those who were disabled? I'm not making yet another "Na-zi" addendum, I just find the OP to have a series of suggestions I seem to relate to the other pretty easily.

We all use analogies to explain our reasoning better, they are a way of constructing arguments. I'm glad my message was received though, as if it weren't this conversation wouldn't be happening.
