			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>Man, I have never been so frustrated at a game. Before I tried these tips every so often I would get kicked by punkbuster for no reason, but it was only on a few servers (very good servers...) and I could live with it. I saw these tips and tried them and now I can&#039;t join a single server without getting kicked by punkbuster<br />Does anyone have any tips before I break my copy of BF2142 in half?</p>]]></content>
