Servers unbalanced

There is a problem with people accessing servers they are not native to in order to gain an advantage in gameplay.  For instance, I’m on a US West server seeing a lot of people with Asian names (google search refers to Russian players as well).  Their bad ping ruins the gameplay for the whole server rather than ruining just their gameplay.  I have noticed a large increase in players with bad pings doing extremely well (3:1 KD ratio) and somehow messing with my gameplay.  The difference is milliseconds and enough for me to notice when I’m in a decent server versus an unbalanced server.  Out of every 10 servers I join now I might get in one server without complications.

    To my knowledge EA doesn't really care about this kind of stuff.  I think they loosely enforce using a VPN, but if you run a remote network with a static IP kind of thing then it never raises any flags with them.

    Personally I think a 100 ping max should be enforced.  Obviously not just instant ban, but if your on a server for... idk, 2 minutes... with a ping over 100 then it kicks you.  I don't think a ban is even needed, just kick people who are consistently over the limit.  If they keep getting kicked maybe stop them from queuing for 5, 10 minutes.
