well evenbalance completely ceased replying, and the prob is still persisting.
That is bad, but i'm thinking that the ping might be causing something that is in turn being misinterpreted in some way and so doing giving this error, that is just my guess(i've got nothing else to think of)
i was thinking, since it's only on servers that i get a high ping, could it be that whenever my ping goes up above a certain number that something is triggered and or i get kicked for taht something being triggered(almost like a "HIGH PING" kick) i know it's not the PB reason, but ping is the only difference between local and non-local servers, so what is triggered when my ping goes up?!:/
Support ticket update from evenbalance!
QUOTE:
Note #9: Please close ALL running programs on your computer and then join a Punkbuster enabled server to see if you still get kicked. If you're not kicked at this point, it means that one of the previously closed programs is causing the kick. Therefore we need to find out which program that is. This can be accomplished by starting each (previously closed) program one by one. If the kick returns we now know which program is causing it.
It is recommended to close the game first before starting individual programs. To save time you can also start several programs at once (say 2 or 3 programs) to speed up the search.
Please let me know the results, thanks

i haven't tried it yet, but will today or tomorrow!
currently no joystick, mouse=G5, keyboard=G15.
i uninstalled my keyboard software and it didnt' work, and i only get kicked from US servers but not local ones... so it should be something else?!
anyway, i checked to see what version of Restriction our server is running, and it's running "pv_sv_restrictions 1"
okay, thanks... i'll keep on waiting, as it's all i can do:/
but what could be a possible cause i mean, one sort of server kicks but the other one doesn't?
Thanks for the reply:)
this is the reply i got from the support ticket*

well i have no idea what version of pv_sv_restrictions 1 (or 2) the servers are running, but i tried a few different clan's servers and they were all US server and they all kicked me.
Evenbalance hasn't replied for 10days more than 10, so i doubt they will cause i sent them another one yesterday and nothing.
I have no idea what is wrong, but i'm sure why i only get kicked from overseas servers but i just made sure again and i'm still able to play on local ones.
