I've been playing BF2 for about 2 weeks now (actually a little less-but who's counting? lol) and I'm a little curious about gameplay.  It seems there are a LOT of glitches and cheats that people are using to keep from being killed during combat, no matter what you hit them with at what range.  In addition to that, there also seem to be a lot of ADMIN's out there who kick/boot/ban players from games with little or no reason (i.e.-a friend of mine was playing with a few of us watching on, and he killed a guy who rather suddenly appeared nowhere near any spawn points or fellow team members as he was the only enemy in the area, and my friend was promptly kicked/banned from playing at that site from the same individual-we found out via another person in the "store" who was on the enemy side at the time and said that the individual was bragging about how he just got killed and he banned the person who did it so it wouldn't happen again...(more)). I guess my question would be two-fold; firstly, what is being done to eliminate "cheats" to enable fair play, and secondly, what is being done to ensure that ADMINS don't abuse the power they have. Supplementally, I am interested to learn where I can play without running into people who teamkill just so they can revive and get points for the revivals and similar such stupidity. I am not saying that any tactics or plans that are possible within real warfare be prevented, rather just the fair play in this game be protected from hackers and the such who just want to screw around and ruin other peoples experience. I spent 13 years in the military, ten of which were in Special Operations Forces between both the United States Marine Corps and the United States Army, and I would like to be able to excel just a little more than some 16 year old hacker who's trying to show off how he can hack/ruin gameplay for everybody else just because he knows more about computers/computer programming. This may seem wacked for me to say all this, but when you have spawn-campers who kill people immediately upon respawn and nobody can go make any points because someone hacked the system to allow them to suddenly appear anywhere on the map they want, especially at the beginning of the game and they're just picking off everyone that just appears for the first time in the game, that seems a little unfair to the rest of us players. This is by no means a request for how to do that, I would rather come by my rank and awards honestly, it makes it more worthwhile, while what the hackers do makes it a waste of my time to play, because now they can make all the rank and awards they want, without having to earn them. Another annoyance is when people get in the jets and intentionally ram helicopters just for the mass kills they can get. From my point of view, that detracts from the intended use of all the equipment offered in the game, which allows them to win awards that were intended otherwise. I really hope you have the time to answer all my questions/comments, as there are a number of us who would like these problems resolved before we continue wasting time in the game. Aside from my complaints, I must say that the game is awesome and I truly enjoy when things are going interestingly, whether I'm getting killed or doing the killing. Thanks in advance for your assistance in this matter.
