When I set up a sever - I set up the rules. If I want to provide a historical war atmosphere on European battlefields, I will ban any Japanese manga girl running around. My setup, my rules.  
IMO the problem is the lack of description for those servers. If we had the possibility to actually name our server setups like:  
“historic - no odd characters plz”  
“casual old farts - no high skilled plz”

Don’t blame the admins. Blame DICE or setup and promote your own.

Generally speaking, If I can identify the player its name and shame.

That means video footage, screenshots, links, typed names, etc etc.

If I can pluck the EAID if the user out of the video or screenshots its n&s.

And yeah I watched the whole thing.

They pay for the server their rules. They keep whoever they want on their server whether you like it or not.

i don’t see anything wrong with operating a lower skill server.

the reality for the OP is the game is dead for him in the mornings in the region he resides in.

the player base got to the point where there is only 1 server in the mornings and it’s not for him. Same difference if the one server left hosted a mode he didn’t like. He’s got to accept it and move on.

I rarely play his server anymore because he kicks and bans for no reason or because you’re top of the leaderboard.  
He also jumps across servers and advertises his to the players to try and get it started. His actions have already created a lot of i suppose “veterans” to not go there and alwasy speak very poorly of him.  
So give it time his server will be not worth his time sooner or later and someone who actually cares will run one.  
But i also don’t play until after work so there is typically 6 or more servers going in the afternoons So i dont really have an issue avoiding him.

I am not sure if this server mentioned here… is the same one I had in mind… but I did heard some chatter about that guy. And he seems to want to enforce only ANZ only… and he did not know I was from Singapore until I mentioned I was happy with my ping 90++ connecting from Singapore, I been playing there for few weeks and was fine. But since when he found out, it was near the end of the game, so once the round ended.. I left and never go back.
