What's the Admin Decision kick box? Accidental non-payer kick?

I don't mind mistakes, I guess; but I do mind losing all my Field unlocks. Boo hoo

Also, does anyone get this weird bug where if they rejoin the server right away, the server thinks you have zero points, and have no unlocks available at all? I did 2 rounds as a newb and I didnt like it!

Sometimes even joining from a fresh boot, you'll get the zero-unlock bug. Esc the server to the multiplayer menu, hit the grey box in the upper-right corner to log out, then log back in. That has always fixed it for me before.

Your points won't be lost. It'll happen once in a while (even thoug the last 3 patches should have fixed that little bug...). Just log out and log back in a few times or restart your computer.

All reserved-slot kicks are handled automatically by the server. If you are being kicked to make room for another member, you would get a message telling you so. I would need more information to be able to answer this properly.

Ah, well I was playing about an hour ago, I guess, and it was the 3rd or 4th round I'd been online. I saw a few green msgs in the scroll telling OTHER people they were being kicked to make room for supporting members.

At that moment, a large grey box appeared in my field of view which said "PB xxxx(something I forget) Then a few blank lines and ADMIN DECISION at the bottom of the box.

I haven't been AUTO kicked in a couple months, so I thought it might have been a manual error by an Admin, meaning to kick another player.

You probably experienced the infamous squad bug. Did your squad have more than 6 members? Did all of your attempts to use VoIP fall on deaf ears? Were you locked in your squad, not able join/leave any other squad? If the answer to most of these is yes, then you probably got kicked for not being in a squad for 90 seconds. I get hit by it quite often. Disconnect from the server and reconnect, if problem persists restart BF2142 or and/or reboot.
