Players from Australia and some from USA do get kicked for high ping alot.
Lets take an example [DruG]Shane0 gets kicked every night i play and he isnt able to play 10 minutes , unless the server is really really quiet.
Look, i was thinking of these 2 possible options
1) raise ping limit to 750
and my favourite
2) Automaticly changable ping limit based on timezones. Example: GMT 08:00- 00:00 : 650 , and when it becomes after 00:00 it gets auto raised to 750/800 till 08:00 again. why? : at night, is when AUS and USA players are most active, and EU sleeps.
So if it is possible, it would only benefit the AUS players and the EU players wouldnt even notice cause it changes back to normal when its past 08:00 GMT.

+1 Wouldn't help me because my ping is either 100 or over 1000 xD but it would be very helpful for other players :D
+1 to this suggestion, also I believe the factor of where some people lag is with overloaded mods on a slow pc which doesn't help their gaming experience
How come he get kicked if hes from USA and im not getting kicked and im from South America, technically my location is more far than him and my ping is correct.

Shanes from Aus :|

If its GMT 0:00 - 8:00 aint that like 8pm to 6am converted time in USA.. Im on in the morning, afternoon and night, if this gets considered, I would like this benefit everyone not just a select few..

Its just an example, main idea was, if EU is sleeping, why would ping be set to EU standards then, would be cool if it could be set a little bit higher for AUS players that play on that moment. Shane and others get kicked at 696 6 times in a row, so i think 750 would be fine.
+1 I saw Shane many times kicked O.o
+1 for A.
I like the idea, but the disadvantage will probably be more reports for ramming, and a few more cops will be pissed off by lagramming. Meh, +1.
-1 People need better internet.
+1 :) nice idea
don't you get desyned when you got a ping of 700?

Its "different", ping from de-sync.

Nah, I've had ping spikes of 1,000 and not de-synced. 700 is ok and you shouldn't de-sync but you might lag a little

It is very hard for Shane to get good Internet, because he lives in a rural area of Australia. Perhaps if Julia Gillard got off her fat ass the NBN (Natioal Broadband Network) would get to Shane's area and he could get better Internet.
I support this 100% being a USA player i as well get some ping issues. And Shane lol Kona is right , he only gets to play 10 mins then its :
"timed out"
