Hi
Did you get kicked?
Okay, breaaathe…
I’m Jack, A server policy decision has been made that only one admin who looks after kicks, and that’s me. I’m Jack
People who cannot help:
- Spaggie, or any of the DVS including their Discord
- BarelyInfected or his Discord
- TheRunningManZ or his Discord
- Community Mods or admins
- Any other person that’s not me, I’m Jack, I look after the things
This decision is fully subscribed to by everyone to alleviate the backend politics that sometimes break other server admin teams
Making a whining noise on a Discord or on Twitter does nothing more than make me realise I’m right, don’t talk about kicks and bans on Discords and Twitter, no one cares or can help
You can follow me on @Wayward_Jack for news about the server
We kick first and sort things out later, don’t take offence, we’re keeping people safe
We love the visitors to our servers and we act first for the good of the community
It’s likely that completely nothing even happened, but kicks can happen for the following reasons:
- You have a young VAC Ban
- You have Multiple VAC Bans
- You have a Steam Game Ban
- You have trade bans
- You’re using a VPN or Proxy route
- Your Steam account is very young
- Your Ping is higher than the servers MaxPing
- You’re using a cloud platform (we’re trying to fix, please ticket)
- Your connection is ‘stuttery’ (AKA Jitter)
- You persistently used ingame text chat (get a mic)
- Other things we check for
If you’re ingame and you get kicked please invest some time in understanding ‘jitter’, it’s probably that. Increase the QUALITY of your connection and you wont get kicked. We have reasons for this mechanism but unfortunately there’s some collateral damage into people with bad connection quality

As a gamer your life will be significantly better if you make sure your jitter is negligible
Maybe think about these things and why you might be kicked for them
Please though, take some time to skim the rules, just to make sure you didn’t do anything silly
If you think you’ve been kicked unfairly, please let us know by filling in this form
Please give us as much information as possible about you or anything that might have happened
We answer hundreds of emails a month, if you get the steamID wrong we may not answer you
Any submissions with an improper SteamID64 (a proper one starts with a number like 7656119……. ) will not be considered further, check your steamid at www.steamid.io
Thanks!
