-23 in less than 23 seconds...
So I joined a server and Camp Gib was playing. The enemy walker was harassing our team and I noticed we didn't have a single Engineer. So I started a squad, took the kit, and saw the walker run towards us. I dropped 2 MMs and hit the walker with the engineer's rockets....
Next thing I know, I'm getting PBed for having a negative score, I quickly check the team list, and I have -23 points.... I lost more points than there were seconds of playing time... There weren't even 23 people around me!
Anyone have any idea what in the hell happened? On my screen the walker didn't blow up, so I'm clueless....

Re: -23 in less than 23 seconds...
A long time ago, I joined a server and got head shot repeatedly for 10 minutes. Frankly, other servers scare me.
That being said, it was probably the game's fault in this case. A bug.
The other alternative is that you teamkilled alot of people at once (with MMs, perhaps?). I don't know the exact negative score per teamkill, maybe Reaper does. I thought he told me the number a while back, but I've forgotten.Put yourself out there and you'll be feeling the TG love quicker than you can say "can I come in sniper"! - Jazy

Re: -23 in less than 23 seconds...
you get -3 per teamkill, so you got 8 teamkills (and a +1 from the kill on the walker) off those two mines which according to the count I made of the after math was correct
as soon as I saw someone putting mines down around a crowded walker I knew to run away, especially since the emp lock wasn't that strongReapator, overlord of ponies

Re: -23 in less than 23 seconds...
Ok, that makes alot more sense, I thought it was just -1 per teamkill. 8 people around the walker seems about right. My apologies for those that got TKed, especially those whose corpse got sent flying to kingdom come :P.
I figured if the walker did get out of the emp lock the motion mines would surely kill him since there was so many around it, I had no idea it would cause an explosion of epic proportions =D.

Re: -23 in less than 23 seconds...
I'm impressed. 8 TK's is more than LordKelvin manages in 1 go. Normally that takes our guys a whole round to achieve..

colliding with a full friendly transport usually does it.

Or when your APM triggers 2 friendlies thanks to the one hostile passing by, you think your RDX blew up and you click the blow button...
I got kicked for -30... >.<

Also if you get punished for those teamkills you get an additional -3 score in addition to the default -3 when you TK someone.

Re: -23 in less than 23 seconds...
So what determines the kick? The amount of negative teamwork points stemming from just TK'ing? meaning the punished TKs dont count?

Re: -23 in less than 23 seconds...
I think it is actually determined by the time between teamkills that determines the kick. One time I got quite a few with an APC (maybe 6 or something) because of a squad that thought it would be cool to run in during mid morter and which provided to quick teamkills for me. I was kicked on the spot. Another time I racked up around 10 team kills during a titan round with some pretty lousy grenade tossing when attacking inside the enemy titan. This was over an extended period of time though, so I wasn't kicked.

There's either a TK/min ratio, or more likely it's just total negative score. The message said something like "PUNKBUSTER You are being kicked for excessive negative score. Admin Decision."

There is a limit until you get kicked for from the server which can be adjusted by admins! I don't know what it is in TG but most likely somewhat around 10. Also certain amount of punishes will get you kicked, but they won't affect you in any other way ( I think it is possible that they cause additional minus points on some servers ).
