Being kicked for being choppy is natural, as ping rarely correlates with ping. Just like you mentioned, I've seen those with pings of 150 and they lag on an impossible scale. Discs go through them, they warp around, etc. It becomes boring and a chore to play those people. I used to have a problem with my cable, and I would be terribly choppy. I'd venture to say that most people with dialup are fine, but those who have broadband and have some trouble are the ones lagging, or those with a bad router. My router has occasionally done that to me.
