You probably did not get kicked by a BFM member. If your ping was that bad, you probably lost connection long enough that the server itself terminated the connection. Sometimes the message on the screen will indicate that you have been kicked when really you just lost connection.

If I am wrong about this and someone actually kicked you then there would have been several warnings typed to you, and then you would know who kicked you. But we don't normally kick people out for excessive lag, and since you didn't mention getting multiple warnings I really think you probably just lost connection with the server.

We normally dont kick people because of their ping. But there are times when we have no choice. When we see someones HIGH ping is causing everyone in the game to have high pings then we have no choice but to remove the player who is causing the lag. I have no idea if you were kicked. I would agree with Mr Do and say if you were then there would have been some kind of warning.

If it were me I would have asked you to try to fix your ping. If you didnt reply or what you did didnt work I would then say "Im very sorry I have to kick you but your lagging the server and I have no choice." Never should you be kicked without someone letting you know why. If this did happen I apologize to you for BFM. We really hate to kick anyone for high pings. As said its VERY rare. If you have a high ping do whatever you can to lower it. Turn off other programs while playing. If your not lagging people in the server then you dont have to worry about being kicked. But if we notice the pings going up high for the other players then you must understand we have no choice.
