What did your console read when you tried to connect?

Something weird like that happened to me too in January.  I was randomly banned from battlezone but not the other evil servers.  But, I had kept coming back into server after being kicked for high ping...so maybe that was it.  It was just a 20 minute ban or something.

What did your console read when you tried to connect?

it would say
Connecting to 74.201.57.37:27016...
You are banned from this server.

then it re-attempts to connect to the server 3 more times, with the same 2nd line.
