oh joy! more looking forward to turds who just page-down before you get a chance to radio 'sorry'.

do something about statpadders/cheats/macro-boys instead of forcing silly rules on us.
Get some detection skills.

wow, i must be obsessed... i just spent the last 2 hours reading through the first 7 pages straight O.o
anyways, some personal comments about the forum itself :
-i dont like long forums becuz u generally have to read through the whole god damn thing to understand it all
-too many people who can't keep it civil and have to for some reason (maybe they're not intelligent enough to do so appropriately) through in a whole arsenal of obcene language to be (in their point of view) understood, which they are certainly not helping by bad spelling.

about the ROE :
well, i havn't actually read it and don't really plan to do so but from what i'm reading here (and by god I read a lot, although not as much as some people here, mainly the mods) it seems EA is taking a perfectionist approach to the game. in all my fifteen and a half years of life (yes, yes I am young compared to more than a handful of gamers here) perfectionism and fun never go hand in hand; ever.
to do so strips everyone of their freedom and thus their ways to have fun. certainly lots of people would be more than happy to oblige the ROE but a lot of people would also be happy to burn it.
as many people have stated before me, banning hacking and stat padding are all good rules but going to the trouble of trying to control the very way people play is unreasonable.
also, i also found it odd that infantry only and no artillery maps are considered stat padding. i've played a lot of infantry only and no artillery maps and i have not seen, heard or experienced in any way, an air of artificially (more like with ease) bolstering your scores.

i think EA should leave the rules at this :

-no actions purposefully committed that degrade your team's chances of winning
-commander's not fulfilling the following (unless of course they can't (i.e. asset destroyed, asset recharge)
-giving artillery strikes where needed or asked for
-giving supply crates where needed or asked for
-giving orders when asked for
-providing UAV support when needed or asked for
-providing vehicle transport when asked for
-teamkilling excessively (more than three-five times i say)
-using a vehicle repeatedly when not adequately skilled to provide any support (if you can't drive practice
in single player please) or using a vehicle repeatedly with the intention of doing absolutely nothing
-no using abusive language with the intent of antagonizing somebody, no racism, etc.
-no hacking
-no statpadding (all the norms with that word except i believe infantry only and no artillery maps are perfectly
reasonable)
-anything else may be added by the server. if not everything excluding all of the above is legitimate.

i probably missed some stuff here, feel free to add on or dismiss this or add this (or portions) to the rest of the big pile. i'm done with this thread either way.

cheers,
a noob near you,
KORdaemon

edit : my guiding principle with the rules i have here VS. the ROE is this :

K.I.S.S

aka, Keep It Simple Stupid

edit 2 : not that i kept my post simple but the rules >.>

is it just me or does it seem like people get whiner and whiner about rules everyday? i mean come on. i came up with the c4 jeep thing back in Vietnam! (the game not the actual war) its fun and isn't that what the point of the GAME is? to have fun? but if you want a real explanation other than "its fun!!!" then try this - in a real war you do the best with what you've been given and you modify tactics accordingly. if the other team gets the idea to put c4 on their jeeps and drive at you then you learn to shoot them faster and not let them get close. if you decide to throw c4 out of a helo while your buddy resupplies you then the other guys better come up with something to counter it. you constantly adapt to new tactics in real life and the same is true in the game. i don't think rules of engagement have any place at all in BF2.

All you people whining... who actually cares about these bullshit rules like "No more Jihad-jeeping!" anyways? At any given time on any given server you have at least 5-10 people breaking some kind of a Rules of Engagement rule. This shit is more like a guideline, so take it as such.

A ROE is a good idea

Yes, I know of the one pure BF2 server left without any artificial rules added, no leftovers from past FPS games just pure BF2 - just "don't be a porwigle and hack the game or spew a flood of nonsense in the game voip/chat, you know, good table manners." The art of jihad jeeping is practiced, teamwork, and oh the minor stuff like strategy and tactics abound. You must attack and defend because the admins will not kill clever enemies for you, if you don't like being raped or camped then you need to get a squad together and go kill them rapers. It's total war, no where to run, no place to hide.

Yes i know where that single server is.

Code it don't ROE it.

Its mine. I have 5 like that. Heres what we have as our ROE:

Team America ( *TA* ) has servers for the people that want no rules.

Home of the FF OFF Madness Servers!

Meaning you CAN:
1) Spawncamp,
2) Own us or anyone,
3) T-Bag us, your friends or yourself,
4) Snipe On Carrier,
5) Arty on Carrier,
6) Uncap Rape
7) FF OFF; fly on buildings.
8) Ping Timeout at 350 (250 on Wake) -Euros are invited also
9) Idle
10) Do what you want (except being a Tard = Glitching, Hax, TK's.. the obvious)
11) Cuss up a storm! Be competitive! ( No 'N' word)
12) Have FUN!
13) Just dont be a Tard!

All Servers Have NO RULES - We believe BOTH sides should attack!

NO RULES FOR THE HONEST GAMER!

Now, honest meaning that you - dont cheat; 3 obvious rules though or it would be chaos and they are: glitching, hax or disrupting the server. Come in being a tard expect to be treated as such.

Play the game how it was meant to be played.

3 obvious rules though...

Kinda Ironic.

Thing is, REAL LIFE WAR HAS RULES. Those rules include being ethical to your enemy. You're not supposed to attack the enemy that has no strategic value to you. You need to treat the enemy with respect (prisoners), etcetera.

So why can't a game based on real war have rules too? If you do not like the rules set out by the game developers, don't play on ranked servers. You can play all the multi-player games that you feel like, but as soon as you enter that ranked server, you agree to the rules, no matter what they are.

If you are really that upset with the ROE, play unranked. It's your choice and whichever you chose you must live with the decision. There is only 2 differences:

1. ROE doesn't govern unranked servers, but they do ranked.

2. Unranked gets no points toward ranks/awards, ranked does.

So choose the path you like. When you make that choice, don't complain about it.

muzicant3 has a last order to you my dear cammarads
DEAR EA GAMES AND DEAR PLAYERS !
My name is Alin, BF2 nick muzicant3, i was Lt.general no 32 overall and no 1 commander overall on BATTLEFIELD 2 and i was reseted by EA GAMES in 15.02.2007. Im 33 years old and i was in Legion Etrangere. Now i work as a phisical training teacher in a school so you can see im a serriously man. What i want to tell you,first time to all BF2 players from all the world : DONT REPORT EACH OTHER because first YOU SIMPLIFY EA GAMES WORK and second YOU ALL WORKING HARD FOR YOUR RANKS EVEN YOU PLAY KNIFE AND PISTOL or another.Not ranks are important. Be good cammarads please, muzicant3 ORDERS YOU ! a real soldier order you, that played every day 12 hours 1 year not EA GAMES that is laughing of you because they dont have much to work if you report each other. Let them to work and find a real strategy to control this game. This game was full of errors from the beginning to the end. What EA GAMES MAKE reseting thousands of account is not a sollution and respect for you. YOU buy with money this game and you all have a dream like me in this game.When i brought this game from market NOWHERE in bf2 book write that KNIFE AND PISTOL IS NOT ALLOWED and nobody told me .! EA GAMES WAKE UP PLS . YOU MUST UNDERSTAND IS NOT FAIR WHAT YOU DO AND IN THE SKY IS A GOD FOR YOU TOO.YOU ERASE THE PLAYERS WORK< THE THOUSANDS HOURS OF PLAYING, THAT BUY WITH MONEY THIS GAME, that make your bussines to be so BIG.IF THEY WANT TO ERASE THEY SIMPLY CAN ERASE THE KNIFE AND PISTOL SERVERS WITH A SIMPLE CLICK ON THEIR PC but they dont do that because they loose money. My server was not erased because they make money with our servers, but they erased my 1 year work.They dont care about our ranks, they care to sell servers to make money, thats all. You must find any other solution not resetting you clients who make your bussiness to be big.. I RENTED A SERVER FOR YOU, I WAS A BIG CLIENT OF YOU BUT NOW YOU LOOSED ME FOREVER. ILL NEVER PLAY AN EA GAME.
Dear cammarads EA GAMES is listening to all noobs reports,maybe that players never shoot with a real gun like me,never respect thei families , friends, workmates, people in real life. they are evils on earth.I CAN ASURE THAT TEESE KINDS OF PLAYERS THAT REPORT ANOTHER PLAYERS ARE EVILS ON EARTH IN REAL LIFE AND IN BF2 NOT GOOD CAMMARADS. EA GAMES must serriously make their work, and find a solution to resolve this BIG problem.If id have money id go to trial. When i teach my childrens to school METHODICAL when a children is very bad we dont have the permission to BOX the childrens LIKE YOU BOX THE PLAYERS, EA GAMES !!!!, a teacher must find any other solution but not BOXING(RESETING)YOU DONT MERRIT YOUR SALLARIES!!! I MADE 120 000 commander poits CORRECTLY, working hard , day by day on all maps.I ASK ALL PLAYERS THAT I COMMANDED TO TELL ON FORUMS WHAT KIND OF COMMANDER I WAS. I MERIT MY FIRST POSITION EVEN AFTER 120 000 COMMANDER POITS I PLAYED KNIFE AND PISTOL RENTING A SERVER FROM YOU,A SERVER THAT YOU ALLOWE TO APPEAR IN RANK LIST DEAR EA GAMES !!! but you KILLED ME. THANK YOU.RESET YOU SERVERS NOT PLAYERS WORK.Thank you very much and i hope in a day to get back our ranks and to live in peace all.

In My opinion we must take attitude about this EA behaviour TO ERASE ACCOUNTS, at least to talk, is our single army against EA GAMES. When i buy a car or a refrigerator for example, in tehnique book is writen what is allowed and what is not allowed to do with car or refrigerator for not spoiling and loose guaranty; we all brought a CD GAME AND A TINY BOOK where EA told us we can be generals if we use planes, helicopters, how to use, how to battle, ABOUT BATLE EQUIPMENT,HOW TO RENT A SERVER HAHAHA,a lot of things, but nobody say there that we can loose our dream to be number one in a day,that we can loose all points in this game,OUR GUARANTY, if we play knife and pistols.THIS RULE SHOULD BE INCLUDED FROM BEGINNING IN TERMS AND CONDITIONS BECAUSE WE ALL PLAY ON SERVERS THAT THEY ALLOW TO BE IN LIST OF RANKED SERVERS> WE MAKE THE LITTLE MISTAKE TO PLAY THERE< A MISTAKE THAT IS NOT MISTAKE IN FACT< BECAUSE ME PERSONALLY I DIDNT KNOW THAT KNIFE AND PISTOL IS NOT ALLOWED.
EA STOP THIS ATTITUDE AND GIVE US OUR RANKS BACK OR IN A DAY ILL GO IN TRIAL WITH YOU !!! I PROMISE YOU THAT
WHERE IS OUR GUARANTY TO KEEP OUR RANKS WITHOUT RECEIVING RESET ????????????????????????????????????????????

Muzicant, you'll never win in a legal battle against EA for something like resetting your account. If you read the terms of service when you make a BF2 account, it probably says that they reserve the right to do whatever they want with the account. You never own the account, EA is basically letting you use it and can take it at any time.

As far as I know, BF2RS was made before BF2 came out. BFROE was founded later on by IndianScout after he left BF2RS. I do agree that they should tell you when you register that you must follow the ROE if you don't want to get reset.

So it's against the rules to repair a Blackhawk or use the Support Kit inside a Blackhawk?

Why aren't these things "fixed" in a patch if they are not allowed?

Edit: I don't get it... what exactly are you supposed to use the 3 rear slots in a blackhawk for, transport only? If so, why are they open so you can "chunk" C4 out or use the wrench? Is it ok to resupply people throwing grenades and mines, but not C4? Is it not ok to resupply anyone in a chopper? Under the same logic, is it then also not ok to be a medic inside a Blackhawk? And is using C4 in a Blackhawk ok so long as you don't resupply? Or perhaps, only resupply upon landing? What if you get resupplied by hovering over a supply crate instead of with the support class? Perhaps EA needs to rethink how the Support class works if it's going to even consider limiting gameplay in this fashion?

I must agree with you there...

I think these BFROE ppl and their ROE are a bunch of ppl sick of seeing people that have better scores because they are better then them. So they are trying to remove many means of getting many points in a round and are trying to stop servers from creating their own rules. This is total bs since that means that the server I pay for I cant even put rules on. I mean god dammit its like renting a house, its my property meaning i should be able to do what i want with it. Not that I will BAN every single one of you if i get the chance... But I want to be able to regulate my server from ppl who break rules or stats padders without being afraid of having BFROE coming along and resetting my stats and shutting down my server. I mean not only does this ruin people fun of having pistol/knives servers but also it almost wastes all the time ppl put into BF2 if they reset stats for their own ROE reasons.

Im sorry if this has been asked and answered in here. Its just that there's so many posts now its taking ages to read through them all to see. Plus search just finds whole reams of text that is just as time consuming to go through. My question is:

Ive read in lots of places the IO is illegal and you can have your stats wiped if your caught on one of the servers. Ive also read the ROE that state this. However, there is an option to search for servers without vehicles so surely if there is an official filter then it cant be illegal?

Sorry for the n00bish question. Apologies in advance.

Thank you.

Thank you.

IO is by no means illegal. Well, actually since it's a game, the term "illegal" doesn't apply anywhere in game. "Forbidden" might be a more correct term when speaking of "wrongdoings" in a game.

Since IO was introduced as a feature in the game, it has been allowed. Before this, I have not heard of a single case of player resets because of playing "home made IO". The server admins might have gotten negative feedback for this, but that's about it.

Before IO was introduced as a feature, "Infantry Only" was also used as a "codename" for K/P or, "boost ya stats here".

It's allowed. Don't worry.

I need around tree fiddy.

Thanks for clearing that up for me. Was a bit worried for second. As I dont stat pad and do try to gain awards the proper way eg. getting 7 knife kills in a proper server and NOT a pistols/knives server.

Blah blah, this whole repair/resupply/heal thing is in the tutorial, it clearly states in that annoying voice that you will do these things automaticly. I love the blackhawk because of the way with 2 engineers it's a flying tank (with crappy guns, but a tank none the less). Pish, I see no problem here.
