I am a chinese Server Admin, I have something to say about that DTV issue

The lag is caused by US checking we are not terrorist when we play on NA.

I don't think people should be oliged to play on the servers located closest to them. I play mainly NA but if im around during the day, the NA servers are empty or close to empty so I pop onto the EU servers. Sure my ping increases from like 35 to 135 but it's not a big deal. I would not kick someone for wanting to play on a more populated server.

Valuable server spots - lol - seriously? There are always vacant spots. I don't think you would appreciate receiving the same comment towards you.

Uhh isn't the kicking he is talking about possibly the bugged leecher kick thing? As I have never seen an admin kick someone for high ping.

The problem with 300 ping players is that the ranged aim intended for 50-80 ping players will cause projectiles to pass right through them without hitting them. The reason is that you only need to lead a normal ping player by 1/20th-1/10th of a second at most, while high ping players you have to lead by 1/4-1/2 a second, which is a distinct and noticeable adjustment that you have to make during a battle situation.
That's why you do better when you have the high ping. On your server you are getting hit by ranged as you should. On a server where you have a high ping, they are shooting where it shows you to be, but due to lag, you aren't there.

That's a sarcastic post right? If it's not, I think you might be retarded

anyone over 150 ping should be booted. 3 ping boots = temp ban, just like any other well run FPS game/mod.  This is 2011, not 1995, play in your region or get a half ass decent connection.  triple digit pings are unacceptable.

Proof NA admins are cunts, Gorath you racist cunt.

HYPOCRISY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Everyone knows Hai Ping is chinese!

Only thing I have to say about this part is that those 300+ pingers from china (or wherever, not specifically china) that come to the servers where they don't live are taking up a valuable player slot from someone that would have a lower ping and actually lives in that area.  Not to sound mean, but when you have your own server in your own area of the globe in a mod with limited space to play you really have no reason to go take up a slot anywhere else.

I understand Gorath's opinion, high pingers will result both server slot issue and server lag, normally they won't come to EU or NA server unless there are something wrong with our own server or its sleeping time in CN.
I have been knowing Gorath for a while and believe hes a responsible admin who will make the fair judgement.

Could be why we stick to playing MB and not any other well run FPS game/mod.
