I could complain about 800,000 different things in this game probably, but am just gonna focus on one for this post...  that being the behavior of server owners and/or clan members on their own servers. 

Dudes, you guys are the most visible people in the community when it comes to playing.  The way you behave influences others, period.  When you bunnyhop and abuse exploits and bugs, not to mention force teamkills intentionally or any other brand of asshattery, you reinforce to everyone that's on your server that all that shit is okay.   If you want respectful players and good team games on your server, play like you hope everyone else will. 

I have a couple specifics I want to mention in case you ever run across any of these clans and/or people. 

1. I was playing on a server the other day and had the jet more than I'm accustomed to.  The map ended, a new round started, and I went right for it again cus I doing well.  I hopped in and obviously someone had been running after it as well, cus he was sitting right in front of the jet on the runway.  I asked him what his deal was and he said I'd had the jet too long and that he wanted it, and he wasn't gonna move from his spot.  I got tired of waiting, figuring we'd both just end up being strafe fodder when another jet flew overhead, so I took off, which of course teamkilled him (and he punished for it).  While in the air I started a quick kickvote on the guy, who then piped up that he thought it was hilarious I was trying to kick him from his own server.  Dumbfounded, I told the guy I couldn't believe he's the server owner and pulled shit like he just pulled. 

Anyhow, the guy's name in-game is PC_Judge or some such.  I don't remember the name of his server, but if you run across him in-game one of these days tell him Tangy Meat Sauce sends his regards. 

2. I played quite a few rounds on the "SAS" (Stars and Stripes) server.  Was a lot of fun and we had some great games.  I'm guessing damn near the entire SAS clan was on at one point.  However, a number of the SAS dudes were bunnyhopping like it was going outta style, repeatedly, and I called 'em on it.  The reply:  "Stop bitching.  Bunnyhopping is in the game and it's not going away."  Maybe not, but for you to run a server and not only encourage that kinda behavior, but take part in it yourself, is exactly WHY it's not going to go away until/if EA/Dice patch it out.

I got banned from the SAS server for never getting hit by one of their bunnyhopping fools. He jumped, and I spat in his face. I was banned for cheating.

That has happened to me before. I killed the commander on the opposeing team and they all called foul. All i did was sneak up on him and knife him.

I play SAS once and a while, I had to leave just a few seconds ago because I was so pissed off. I had the USMC SRAW and fired it at SAS JOHN 4 times all 4 shots were close range and went right through his tank the last one hit my team mate that was on the other side of his tank. I tried to screen shot but it was to quick..
PLEASE DONT TELL ME THERES ANOTHER BUG OR HACK OUT !!!

Its bullshit how some of these ppl run their servers.
One time i was on this server, it was on map stailmate and this Blackhawk flew over stuffed with ppl in it. Useing the tank from my recently captured CP i shot the BlackHawk down. They kicked me, when my palls asked why, they accused me of spawncamping. Its lame when the server admins cant even accept that they have been decsended on by someone with more skill and experiance then they have.

Its all EAs falt

Tangy Meat Sauce and whoever else that havent relized yet . .

" Any shooter game" like BF2 .. you will find bunny hopping in it.
It is here to stay and if you did a search in this forums youll find it has been mentioned so many times over an over. My only thing i can say to you is . If you find yourself on a server with asshats push Esc then dissconnect .. and look for a new server.
  Myself Im a bunny hopper and always will be . I didn't start until after the first 2 months of playing this game.
If you can't beat them join them .

Next time just roll backwards and as soon as you start going down that cliff behind the runway full afterburners. This way you´ll make an F35 like rocket start.

Unfortunately, this was one of those hangars that's very small and only has one way out...  not on an airstrip.

I have run into few servers with numbnuts as owners/admins. They have clear server rules, which even roll in the window. Then, quess what are the admins and other clan members doing? Yep, doing the exact thing rules state you are not allowed to. I polity ask should not rules be the same for all. They start calling me all sort of names, say they will kick/ban me etc. I will no let them bother me and I take the gold metal home. Next round I do not hear a word of an insult.

First I try to beat them in the game, if I can not and they are still being idiots I leave.

About bunnyhopping... earlier I did hate those hoppers, but now I have a often working cure for it. I do not try to fire when they are in the air. I fire short burst when they land and only move my gun on horizontal level. Quite often after few hops they end up dead. Seem to work for me.

...or I run the other directiong like a "blind dude on valium" (experssion someone used it in here which I found more than hilarious).

edit: oh and I bunnyhop (if you can not beat them, join them)

I've started to do similar stuff, i.e. waiting until they land before firing, etc.  Some situations, though, that just doesn't work, specifically when they're using grenade launchers.  I've seen a TON of people who leap through the air and fire a grenade right at the peak of the jump in order to guarantee they get the grenade off and survive.  What this means is that it's even harder to deal with people who depend on the "n00b-toob" - especially in close quarters, you have to be either really lucky or really good to take the guy out before you eat a grenade. 

Overall, it's just lame.  Occasionally out of frustration I'll hop around and/or crouch and prone jump when I'm being shot at just to make the shooter realize how stupid it looks, but for the most part, even if it means losing, I won't regularly play that way.  It destroys what little immersion this game can conjure up and if I can't feel immersed or able to suspend disbelief, I'm just gonna find another game to play.

Talk about P.O.S servers. I found a server called   EA WSS RANKED ( www.thewssclan.com ) server tonight
the first 2 minutes were ok but after I killed WSS (pdr3000) or something close to that  a few times it as if I was being hunted by both sides ( wss were on both teams ) the next thing I know I get blown away by this wss pmj300 dude then a medic on my team revives me then wss pdr3000 blows me away again this went on for like 4 kill revives then i got the hell off that server. watch out for this server they seem to be a bunch of assholes running a ranked server.

Add LRRP to that list of lame servers. If you fly for more than 5 minutes there without dying or just own in any way, they kick you. Ok whatever you losers. Get a life. I basically take a one chance impression with clan servers. I give them a chance to see if they aren't whiny bitch ass losers, and if they are I don't come back. That is all.

There's nothing wrong with bombing the carrier if they have at least one point on land in my opinion.  You're trying to deny them the ability to get airborne and cause YOU problems, which is fair (though frustrating, I've been there) play IMO.
