Today, I was playing on a squad server in Battlefield 2142, and my average ping was around 150. About a couple of minutes later, one of the players starts telling me to leave the server because I was slowing it down. Eventually, this individual started spouting insults and such, then left (or was kicked/banned since this person wouldn't stop insulting me) after seeing me not reply to anything (I usually don't say anything unless I need to, which in this case, I didn't need to). Apparently my ping wasn't too much of a problem since PunkBuster seems to kick people who have pings over 200, and mine never went that high, though I was the only one in that server who had a ping of over 100.
Anyway, is it true that a client can slow down a server with having a high ping? If so, then please explain how. I'm curious to know more about this.
