All BF3 servers as someone else has mentioned has to be hosted by a reputable hosting company. Speak to their customer service people and point out that the servers they host are being used for racist abuse. </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=7050#post-40495 Sat, 15 Dec 2012 20:40:23 +0000 Giskard 40495@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>DSB, all weapons are perfectly balanced. Some are better in certain situations, but that's expected. There isn't a gun in BF3 I haven't played with, or a gun that is bad. They're all good on some maps, and bad on others. </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=7050#post-40492 Sat, 15 Dec 2012 19:48:09 +0000 DSB 40492@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>My definition of balance refers to an even playing field in which all spawns, all weapons and all vehicles are viable.</p> <p>Under that definition, BF3 still feels like a new release. Although the superior weapon sometimes changes from patch to patch, so I guess that's some sort of improvement from BC2. </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=7050#post-40489 Sat, 15 Dec 2012 18:24:44 +0000 Hcw87 40489@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>Not balanced? Are you serious? There isn't many other games out there more balanced. </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=7050#post-40484 Sat, 15 Dec 2012 15:38:49 +0000 DSB 40484@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>If they won't bother to balance the game, it stands to reason that they don't give half a fuck about who plays it.</p> <p>Don't expect that much from EA.</p> <p>I've been kicked from servers for not being Norwegian and not being Thai in BC2, even though my ping was fine. Shit happens.</p> <p>The worst I've seen was openly neo nazi servers in World At War though, obviously Activision doesn't give a fuck either. </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=7050#post-40483 Sat, 15 Dec 2012 15:02:08 +0000 freedoms_stain 40483@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>He reported the incident to EA and they took no action. </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=7050#post-40454 Sat, 15 Dec 2012 02:38:47 +0000 Clupula 40454@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>Still, nothing here has anything to do with EA, so the headline is misleading. </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=7050#post-40451 Sat, 15 Dec 2012 01:16:50 +0000 freedoms_stain 40451@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>How "personal" BF3 servers are is up for debate imo.</p> <p>BF3 servers are rented from 3rd party service providers who in turn pay EA fees for the rights to rent out BF3 servers.</p> <p>EA provide zero "official" servers on PC, you play on someone else server or you don't play. In light of that fact I think it's reasonable for there to be certain standards in the running of a Ranked BF3 server and that admins who habitually breach those standards have their servers made Unranked - anything goes in an Unranked server. </p> <p>I don't know the whole story with OP, but I think kicking players with a hostile offensive message definitely breaches some standards. Even if OP was being just as nasty in the chat box or cheating or whatever the reason was he got kicked/banned, I think as an admin you have to have a bit of maturity behind your decisions. </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=7050#post-40443 Fri, 14 Dec 2012 23:43:42 +0000 Se_7_eN 40443@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>Racism*</p> <p>Personal server = Personal opinions. </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=7050#post-40440 Fri, 14 Dec 2012 23:06:35 +0000 Giskard 40440@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>There's a lesson to be learned here:</p> <p>Don't play on Russian servers.

Not sure what you expect EA to do about it. </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=7050#post-40429 Fri, 14 Dec 2012 18:44:28 +0000 Phoenixblight 40429@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>Players police their own servers as well so if you were on a player's server and not EA they can do what ever they like. </p> <p>EA is not going to do anything about this, its not their place. </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=7050#post-40428 Fri, 14 Dec 2012 18:37:40 +0000 migors 40428@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>Hi today i was banned from BF 3 Russian server with stated reason: fuck you niga!</p> <p>I contacted EA and they refused to take action.
