In all cases, please provide as much information as possible when making reports. EA's support staff will be the final decision makers regarding investigations. Intentional submissions of misinformation or false abuse reports can be considered a violation of the T&Cs.

Ranked Server Administrators:

If you are an administrator of a ranked Battlefield 3 server (referred to below as a "Server Administrator"), you must also comply with the T&Cs.

Please note that server administrators also should not boot other players just because they are ahead, killed you, etc. The player must be violating the T&Cs (which may include violating the rules of the server, as long as those rules are in accordance with the T&Cs, as mentioned above).

Server Administrators may implement and enforce rules that result in minor changes to gameplay behavior or styles as long as these are clearly stated before a player starts playing on a server. These rules typically introduce minor or limited restrictions on how a certain aspect of the game can be used, but do not create or promote an environment that would allow abuse of the scoring/award system. Examples of such rules that are acceptable are:
Disallowing repeated main base camping/attacking of bases that cannot be captured.
Limiting the use of mortars to a particular region of the map.
Server Administrators will also violate the T&Cs if they (i) use offensive server names, server art or clan tags; or (ii) encourage other players to violate the T&Cs while in game.

The following are examples of conduct that is not permitted by the T&Cs:
You are not permitted to use offensive soldier names or clan tags. Also, you may not actively encourage other players to violate the T&Cs while in-game.
You may not organize any Clans or groups that are based on, or espouse, any racist, sexist, anti-religious, anti-ethnic, anti-gay, or other hate-mongering philosophy.
You may not attempt to interfere with, hack into, or decipher any data streams or transmissions to or from EA services, or use any application or software while using the Battlefield 3 services which are not approved by EA.
You may not exploit any bug or abuse any game system (such as the scoring or award systems) in an EA product or service. You may not intentionally use or share any bug found within any Battlefield 3 games, real or fictitious, regardless of whether or not it grants an unfair advantage. You will not directly or indirectly communicate the existence of any such bug to any other user of EA's games or services.
Examples of abuse include, but are not limited to:
Taking turns killing, reviving, receiving ammo, etc.
Abusing world geometry to your advantage without risk
Exploiting vehicle damage to repair indefinitely
Creating a play environment which, by definition or action, creates an inflated scoring scenario
