For the past few weeks, every time I join the server and and make a clean kill I get a "disconnected from server". Is there a specific reason why I get kicked from the server. I've gone over the rules and from my perspective am not breaking any of the rules. BTW, Hello everyone. I just joined, but have been playing on the server for a while now!

We will take a look into it. Can you specify in detail (!) in what situations exactly those disconnections happen to you? On which of our servers does it happen? Don't forget to tell us what your nickname is, please.

Thank you for the quick response. I've only played on the Dragon Valley server. This last time, which was on Friday, I killed someone while in an APC. The other player was on foot. They lobbed a few grenades at me, and I was finally able to get a shot and took it. As soon as the player died, I was booted from the server with a Connection Lost message. I ranked up to Lance Corporal with that kill. The other times it happened it was the same. I got the connection lost right after a kill. I don't think it really a connection loss, because it only happens after a kill and never just randomly. My player name in game is the same as my user name here, Alpha_Charlie_SQ3.

Hello Alpha_Charie_SQ3, your in-game username is "Alpha_Charie_SQ3", without the L. It appears that you have applied a license code that you have found on the Internet, and just like you hundreds of others did.

So what is likely happening is that you are getting disconnected when anybody else with the same license connects to any other game server (even not LS, it can be any bf2hub ranked server).

When you try to reconnect, you will disconnect this other player instead, who will also wonder what the heck is going on. He'll try to reconnect and he will disconnect you back, and the loop goes on.

To fix this problem you need to have your own license code applied, so you can do one of three things. Either click on my profile and reinstall the full game with our instructions, or if you don't have the Special Forces expansion pack already we can also give a standalone installation which will also address the licensing problem.

Finally the third option is I can send you a message with just instructions to apply your own code for the game, to avoid collisions with other players who made the same mistake.

First option is 3,2GB download, second option (in case you don have SF and you'd like to have it) is 1GB, third option is a few Megabytes. Let me know which of these you want to try out first and we'll go from there.

Yea, I just noticed the error with the name. Thank you for looking into the connection problem. I will take option 2. Please let me know how much it will cost and I can send it in as a donation through Paypal.

It won't cost you anything, there is no way we charge for these things

If you enjoy our services and you want to make a donation, the button is on our homepage as you noticed, but what you may have not noticed is that we have Donator Awards for those who support our game servers and many other services that we run together with bf2.
