Yeah, its kinda lame.  but it's not so much as a punishment.  Just a requirement ya know? Getting 44 kills for SF expert badges..... but then you ahve to have 100 hours too.   It's just a sign of commitment.
If u look at my stats u will see that i have all expert badges except armour, transport and aviator.

U just need like 1250h at least to get 2 star^^ That means all 2 Star Generals have a lower SPM than me 1 Star pwns 2 Star
nope i beat you!
But ur 1 Star too


Another question: Do I get promoted once I reach the timelimit for 2 Star or do i have to wait for 200k and 3 star?

You get promoted. I did the 1star thing then got promoted once I got the hours to two star. I'm now waiting on time again for 3 star. Basically you loose nothing by having a high SPM, and you don't rank up from colonel straight to 3 star which means you get to experience each rank.

However, playing bf2 purely for hours does get boring because its a lot of fucking hours for each general rank. On the flip side, badges, kit time, whatever doesn't matter anymore, the game is basically over so feel free to fuck around with stuff you don't usually play. I am working on spec, assault and sniper now.

I got my promotion today, but i was a little disappointed because i got only 1 Star General not 2 Star. I have all the badges required, but not enough playtime. So i guess one gets punished for a decent SPM^^

You're missing the Purple Heart. Get that award and you'll rank up

Oh cool, so I'm not stuck with 1 Star, that's great

But until I hit the time limit for 2 Star I will have the points for 3 Star^^

yeah you'll get promoted, don't worry.

And you are right

2 star needs a SPM of 2.4 to get it exactly with your points
3 star needs a SPM of 2.3148

324 more hours, go some commander ^^

If you're spm is high you stay a low general rank for a while reguardless of points... My spm is decent so I'm stuck at being a 2 star general until I get the hours. It sucks :*(

Actually it's not true - example this player has got 2500 points from Feb to May and is still general:

http://bf2s.com/player/45249878/history/Score/

And he is only on 267th place.

Another sample, 5000 points from Feb to May: http://bf2s.com/player/45249878/history/Score/

Again, only 5000 points from Feb to May: http://bf2s.com/player/14649497/history/Score/

I have 50+ hours left to get veteran armour, and 15 as aviator. No way am I ever enduring that. Plus, like someone said, that eagle looks way cooler.

By looking at your stats I would say a resounding no. As those 6 maps make up a total of 18 hours out of 700.
I don't play those particular maps because I don't like them.  I used to play Karkand and Jalalabad a lot but have moved on to SF because I like those maps, particularly Ghost Town. Anyway, the point of what I said before is that people are being punished for having a high score per min...no matter how they got it.
