Admin of server killed me on sight and to prevent me or friends from getting my gear back, admin restarted the server. This happened about 5 times in 20 minutes.
Admin abuse is out of control on this server.
66.55.158.186 {F32583} {F32584} {F32585} {F32586}
This is the admin causing the problems.

Also, myself and others were kicked from the server.
After my friend shot and killed the admin, the server was reset and the admin messaged us. The server was reset 5 times or so when we talked back to the admin. He proceeded to kick me 3 or 4 times from the sever after restarting it. The servers IP is 66.55.158.186. There was really no reason for any of this.... One of my friends got on to their TS and explained to them the server rules, they didnt like that. They changed the name of their server and that's when the kicking started to happen. I took 2 screen shots of being kicked after I thought about it: http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/429321685581702051/FF9D7616EA00269AEB3E43188B4F19CD95D7BF05/
I was also present from this, the admin of the server called Cruzman's (changed to game servers NY after he kicked us) killed my friend in vyborg, I then killed the admin and his friend and proceeded to round up the gear at which point the server was reset, upon rejoin all of the bodies were gone and the admin said over global voice chat "I wasn't fucking joking when I said I was the admin, enjoy your lost loot" at which point we joined his TS and informed him that this was against the rules, we were promptly banned. We tried once more to rejoin the server only to be kicked and then they changed the name.
About 20 minutes prior to this the server owner reset the server about 5 times for reason unknown, perhaps to make everyone leave the server but we had a truck and wanted to stay.

better report it to the hoster:

gameservers.com should be to one in charge for thet server
(https://whois.arin.net/rest/net/NET-66-55-158-0-1/pft?s=66.55.158.186)
dev team has enough things to do, so better only report it here if the hoster doesn't react
also a good thing to gather evidence is, to record you game sessions (and clear the records, if you don't need them)
screenshots of "You have been kicked" unfortunately don't proove anything, but that you have been kicked from any server (not showing which server or what you might have done)
a record of you game session, showing the timing of events, ingame chat ect. can help proving events to the hosting company, so that they can take actions
i doubt they take serious actions without any solid evidence
the server was already reported to gameservers. better to report to as much as possible to get it shut down.
well if bohemia doesn't care about server integrity, well then the game is a lost cause. it's a minor thing considering they're working on new bugs to introduce to the game.
as a client, there are no other ways to report other than anecdotal and screenshot evidence. there is no information that we can get prior to being kicked, so that is silly.
-"i doubt they take serious actions without any solid evidence "
server logs.
you said that you have already reported this to the GSP, then what did they say?
if they can confirm your point of view, they will usually warn the server admin, to stop that behaviour before they take more drastic actions (worked fine for me in the past)
in case they can't (or don't want to) confirm your story gather more evidence for a new report
and if that report still gets rejected, contact the devs (either here, or a safer way would be sending a message to a forum admin) and provide all information ticket # etc.
pointing onto the server logs is quite easy, but im unsure on how long they go back into the past (was admin for a mod server, and some logfiles there were only a few hours), so it's better to assume that logs don't exist, and gather evidence for yourself
the point i annoy you with things like that, is that if everyone that has a problem with a server admin always reports those things here, even though the GSP can solve it themselfs, then this place gets even more messy than it already is, and the chance that reports get overseen increases. i doubt this would be a thing any of us would want to happen
Hi RaymondFish,
Thanks for putting this to our attention. We've notified the GSP so that they can provide the admin(s) with a strike. In case this happens again, please submit a new ticket.
Thanks,
