whoawhoawhoa. you can't just kick people because they spike, or lag, or whatever. if anything, it helps you frag. if someone spikes, it doesn't mean that they are in another place on your screen, it means that they are somewhere else on their own. i spike occasionally, which is due to packet loss, and indeed, it seems to slow the server the slightest bit. but you cable/dsl/broadband people need to realize that a 100 ping is still really freakin good.
and some of us are too POOR to get a decent connection. so ya can't blame that either.
i vote don't kick people with bad pings; rather, banter and offend them until they leave on their own. being an admin on the HLDM server, when people badmouth me, i retalliate. problem solved. :D
