How do you know...

How do you know if you've been banned?

I was playing with a squad of 2 other people today, and suspiciously 5 minutes after someone died, everyone on the server was kicked. (which was about 10 people)

When me and my squad mates try to rejoin it says "You were kicked from the server" when we enter the lobby

Is this what appears when you are banned from a server?

No, not as far as I know. An abusive admin is most likely kicking people. People do that (or restart the server) to gear themselves up if they're admins. Not all, but some.

well, him and the buddy who died both had 3000 and 950 Z-kills respectively...

and we (my squad) saw them drive a 2 vehicles past Devil's castle, (we could see the nameplates)

We considered chasing them down and taking them out (since they were the top on the server)

but decided against it...

skip ahead an hour almost;

we saw that the buddy died, we rejoiced! then we were booted... along with everyone else on the server... and the rest is history

Next time, don't post on the new player forums. Also, you can find where you should put this thread (including screenshots) here
