Kill = Ban  
Grenade/Explosives = Ban

Hi, a SEA player here.

If you are wondering where most of these Chinese-speaking servers are from, I guess they are based in Taiwan, Hong Kong or somewhere around there, hence the use of Chinese.

Just FYI, all that I’m detailing below is plugin-based, legitimate and entirely at the server operator’s control. These “settings” are quite popular around here, so I understand your frustration.

I am not sure what you are mentioning by “whitelist”. However, most of these servers have your usual VIP plugin, such that when the server is full and a “donator” comes in, a random player will be kicked to give them a slot. Quite a number here also have in-game K/D autokick, usually declared on the server name. Such servers are new player oriented, but considering that you are fairly new you should have no problem.

As for Grenade/Explosive bans, they’re usually exclusive to the Metro/Locker only servers (and some Domination servers). This would also be a good time to mention sniper/DMR limits (common) and shotgun limits (rare). Make it a habit to type **!rules** in chat when entering unfamiliar servers in case there are house rules you have to follow, as well as !sniper or !sniperx to check the sniper/DMR limit if you wish to snipe.

Moving on to those servers that kicked/banned you simply for getting a kill. These are probably “刷分” (“Shua Fen”) servers, which means “farm points"-self explanatory. Some are marked “kill=ban”, but just look for “Shua Fen” to identify them.

Hope that clears things up for you.

Don’t worry, you’ll get there soon. Unfortunately, BF4 has (IMO) the worst “noob grind” of all the newer Battlefield games:

- You unlock nothing through ranks
- All-kit weapons need 18k score (in BF3 your first rank-up got you an 870 MCS)
- Very late medic and ammo bag unlocks
- Weapons need weapon score instead of class score, so no “heal for unlock”
- All this with the usual challenging Battlefield environment

From what I see of your progression, here are my suggestions for each kit:  
Assault: I’d ditch the AN-94 (subpar). Slap the M26 on your SCAR-H underslung and rush for the M416. Once you get the M416, use it and unlock its attachments - it is excellent at mid-range. Later, the AEK is a good all-rounder, but it doesn’t really control well.

Engineer: Grind this kit hard, it’s fun not to helpless when you see enemy armour and be able to disengage and repair yourself. For the PDWs, get the PP-2000 fast; it’s great for hip-fire and has ammo to last engagements. Unlocking carbines will also come in handy when you want to be an aggressive Recon.

Support: Think of the U-100 as a glorified AR that is -really- accurate. If you spot enemy EOD bots and have time, pop them - iirc they count towards 3 vehicle kill requirement to unlock the AWS - it’s one of the best LMGs at close range.

Recon: You’re making good progress.
