Earlier in the day we found a configuration exploit in the Ranked Server code that awards players on that server several tens of thousand XP points per spawn. The exploit has now been addressed and a hotfix is being rolled out across all Ranked Servers at the moment.
We're also checking the accounts database and any account that is found to have gained XP via this exploit is being rolled back to its pre-exploit state. The ETQW Stats Site will reflect the rollback within the next 24-48 hours and you'll be able to continue fighting over the Platypus crown unimpeded.
The integrity of the statistics collection system is very important to us and we will continue to monitor our incoming data closely for exploits and the like.
We need to say sorry to the players who where kicked today, while our ranked server was full, our hosting company decided to make an unannounced update of the server to solve the XP issue.
