[H] Iccup people ban me

I've recently been accepted to med school starting in August. Until then, I'm planning on playing starcraft 50 hours a week grinding on Iccup and get my protoss up to at least B/C level. (right now I'm D)

A really annoying issue I'm noticing is that 80% of the time, as soon as I enter a game, I get banned. Our ratings are pretty close, everyone is roughly a D. Why do people in games ban me as soon as I appear?

You play protoss, people fear(or should I say feared since I play SC2) them. Proxy, 2 gates, 2 base carriers, the cliche '1a2a3a'. If you weren't protoss in BW you hated Protoss, unless of course you're playing a pro level then Protoss is a joke and is unable of holding a position as the 'icon protoss player' because they lose to silly things. So yeah Protoss at low levels is highly disliked by most D players, and a lot of people are inconsiderate dweebs who only want to fight ONE matchup but don't state it in their game name. So they just boot people until they get what they want.

i can't host games myself

i use antihack. everyone on iccup needs to, obviously.

i'm on broadband pc. (don't even know why it matters if i'm on a mac or not)

anyways, shooting up the ranks =). started at 1000 yesterday. i'm up to 1440 now. Does anyone know what the cutoffs are for each level?

lol you want to get to B but you dont even know the scoring system? interesting.

its every 1k you get a new rank. 1000, 2000, 3000 = D, D+, C- etc

Can you port forward on your router? If you can host games your life will become easy. I hate to get banned and looking for games so I usually just host shit.

It matters because macs don't have AH (or at least didn't use to). No ah -> ban from a lot of games.

could be because of either AH, country, or race specific.

Well it's not the protoss since I join games all the time.
Maybe you have a really laggy connection or ugly flag.
You don't actually need to AH to get on the iccup server, but of course you should have it on if you want to get games.
No I'm never serious.

if your country flag = [PE] [CN] [KR] then the chances of you getting banned are higher.

I don't know how they manage it, but sometimes at the start it's great: low latency, smooth, etc.
Then just after 2 minutes elapses it starts getting super jittery, even at extra high and the game takes 2-3 times longer than usual because of the lag.
No I'm never serious.
