Im not really sure as to why I was banned?

Woke up this morning to log in only to find that I was banned? I don't what the reason is as I logged off last night without getting banned or anything of that sort. A couple of rounds prior though I was kicked for supposedly attacking a last flag with the blackhawk but I don't remember attacking a last flag with it (unless I did then I probably wasn't aware that it was last), all I did was hover overhead while spinning.

I was banned from the account *[nM]* NoM3RcY[+1]

Ok, upon looking at the BR. The kick was justified since I did kill one person with the z-10 when I hopped on and I'm sorry for that, I wasnt really paying attention.

As far the ban goes though, I'm still not sure what happened there

Too many complaints about you from many people who are long-time members and friends, and your dominance of the game in our server seem very suspicious to the point they leave when you are playing and that is opposite to our goal.

Ahhh alright, that's understandable especially with the lack of decently populated servers nowadays.

I just don't see the cause for a ban though. How is any different from players like brushhogg or yourself in the air or grandpaT and Wes on the ground. I usually try to balance out games and go on sides that are getting dominated and usually follow the rules to the best of my understanding as well as try to stay on the ground or on foot especially when there are too few players and only get on the air when there's other pilots around since I don't even camp jet spawns and actually let them take off.

But either way, excuse my ranting. If the ban sticks then it's all good, I understand it was fun being around. All I wanted to know was the reasoning

Me in the air ? Well, being the clan founder I think they cant ban me. , I know I am a pain in the ass when flying but because I play only a few hours in a week, usually only at weekends I think they tolerate me.
I am not aware of Wes complaints.
Brushhog, I dont recall too many complaints... maybe because he does not play often in this server.
grandpat, he is being discussed.
You forgot to mention bayblaze2 in the air.... He is the #1 pilot, at least in stats, so, he has a good excuse to do what he does in the air, but at ground he is not that good, we just need to keep him at ground.
And a big difference between you and other players is that you look suspicious because you are good with all weapons, all vehicles and always.
If you are that good, congrats, but I think you should play vs players of your same level.

Well this is alarming.
Could you tell me what aspects of my gameplay are being discussed and why so I can provide a statement.

Thank you

I'm guessing it has something to do with the skill difference. In my opinion though its just a matter of low ping with better hit reg on top of using te g36e. If anything, GrandpaT is in the same level as Wes if you ask me so there shouldn't be any problem with him with both usually able to kill me with no issue unless I can snipe long range or just DAO them. Plus you gotta remember that a good majority don't use cover and just charge in recklessly.

As far as air goes Blanco, BrushhogG, plb and sniper are the only decent challenges around when it comes to dogfighting. I left bayblaze out on purpose. As much as I'd like to criticize said opinion on bayblaze I'm gonna respect your views on him even though his stats does not reflect his skill as a pilot. If you ever get in a dogfight with him, he's very predictable: dive bomb, pull up, strato stall, just follow him and spam your missiles after he releases flares . If he's at least several meters away from the flares. They'll lock on the flares but deflect back into him

It also has a lot to do with the age.  You guys have grown up using computers and you've got the quick reflexes and good eyesight that work so well with the game.

Hahah that's true. Albeit I'm 26, with eye allergies and a girlfriend that distracts me while Im playing, meanwhile using a 10 year old laptop and a wireless mouse for everything including flying. In my opinion ping is the highest factor. Good ping = better hit reg. That plus experience too. I know I used to do 32vs32 and 6v6 tourneys along with 1v1 jet and chopper matches, as well as practice sessions with bullet drop and leading ahead at 400m and 500m average with a sniper rifle and CQC with an anti tank rocket or non guided RPGs from the SF expansion

Hi Josh thanks for the compliment on dog fighting, but probably an exaggeration that I am a challenge in the jet. I might as well be in a sesna when blanco is flying but I can hold my own in the chopper...unless blanco is flying lol.  Your situation was not knee jerk reaction in fact was discussed at length. I enjoy playing with you because you are good and I like that and I don't find you unkillable in any facet of the game. However I must admit there has been a time or two where I was just literally shocked at something you did and couldn't figure how you pulled it off. Others on the server had these experiences as well, hence the suspicion. You are either one of the best players I have ever come across in BF2 or a hacker, which one cant be confirmed although you think it could some how with the technology today. If you are the former all apologies from me I would never want some one banned for being really good, that sucks. If you are the latter than shame on you for having no skill and ruining peoples fun, that sucks. Just kind of sucky.

Good luck...or...I hate you

In his defence, both his accounts on the tfc server registered a score/min less than 3.00
There are 6-7 players of the top 100 who are above that

Somewhat off topic, but is there a link or post with instructions on how to access the battlerecorder?

Thanks

I take no offense whatsoever in the outcome. I knew that the skill difference was bound to iffuriate people eventually. Hackers are quite rampant in most servers and people see lots of them around which is why people are disillusioned into associating the impossible for average or casual gamers with the usage of hacks. As previously stated, I'm not trying to defend myself because I know that there's nothing I can say that can change the thoughts of people and I don't blame the ones that is/are suspicious. I know I was when I first started doing the 6v6 tourneys and found myself getting 1-2 shot with stock/default weapons. It wasn't till after I did practices and got advice from some of the other members of *[nM]* as well as sponsored players or teams. Just simple things like hip firing and less usage of scopes/iron sights improves accuracy, tapping on full weapons instead of holding down the fire button also increases accuracy, using single shot mode instead of clicking one at a time seems to increase the bullet damage of any gun for long range purposes ( I'm sure some have seen these 1 bullet 1 kill shots that happens sometimes ). As far as clicking goes, I can usually click on the mouse quite fast due to "practices" on my girlfriend ( Surely the kids won't understand this ). It comes in very handy with the DAO and the pistol hahaha

When it comes to air, unpredictability is far more dangerous than the predictable. I was actually having more trouble following sniper I think over the weekend than I was against blanco since I don't see him fly as often. Each pilot has their "usual" moves, I usually try to change it up when I notice that I'm doing the same pattern. As far as tv guiding jets and choppers, what you should know is that the hit box lags behind all the time, the higher the ping difference of that player you're trying to hit compared to yourself te further behind the hit box is, this applies to both jets and choppers which is why I don't have much problems tv guiding choppers that barrel roll as well as ATing jets

I actual have an xfire with videos on how to do things like solo Blackhawk and chain gunning as well as other things like the hip firing that I mentioned

In regards to GrandpaT, you can access BR on the game, just go to community and download whichever one you want to, it should give you a list of the servers that you've played in and the recent games you've done
