How about reporting it to BV, with times and logs, rather than whining on the forums? (of course, you may have already done this in which case the whining is superfluous).

Not accepting anyone for 20 mins is bull and server hostaging .

Boot for a better allegiance is when they have done something wrong, not when they are trying to play.

I love how everyone accepts the claimed timespan without any proof whatsoever.

If it really was 10 mins fo requesting, I agree that's kind of ridiculous. But to someone waiting to get on a team, 60 seconds often feels like 10 minutes.

You noes what if the commanders agreed before the game to not accept over a certain number of people? Say 15 a side. Or not to accept anyone other as replacements to stop after launch stacking? Or they were looking for a higher, lower, or different player?

Condemning them before we get all the facts seems a mite quick to judge, "server hostaging" seems a pretty strong claim since at the end of the day couldn't someone make a second game?


I get it, since I get annoyed just like you when the commanders aren't accepting, and I can't remember the last time I actually started a side game but one could do it.


Just Saying

I'm sorry I don't remember any of it. For you the day spideycw graced your squad with utter destruction was the most important day of your life. But for me, it was Sunday

So next time I should let the miners die to accommodate some douche bag with no patience? And my team should have to suffer because comm got dropped on a clueless (3) when you booted me?

How about give a brotha a minute to do his business before you kick him out of the stall

both comm are lucky that i wasnt on at the time.... IF the comms will not accept or respond to my pm's within 1 or 2 minutes I would consider it hostaging and would remove the offending comms. it really takes about 4 seconds to hit enter, tab a few times and type the words "hold on" or 'wait", ok MAYBE 7 seconds, at most.

as said, IF the timeframes were correct...
