I think I know at least one reason for server connection loss.

I have played quite a few games today and during some of those game when a cheater becomes obvious that's when I seem to get "connection to the server has been lost". Not all the games, but at least 5.

Is it possible that the server admin can disconnect a game in progress when a hacker/cheater is obvious?

As a way to eject the hacker/cheater?

It's a pattern I saw happening.

dumb nonsense

thats possible

before i had rcon tools i always restarted the game, the way to test if that is the case, try to reconnect right away back in, if you keep getting connection failed a few times and then after a few you can get back in he resetted the server.

but more things can cause this changeing settings trough the rcon tool can crash a server also.

but what you stated can be one of them

Oh so, clever way to "get rid of" a cheater - bring the whole server down - just to piss normal players and cheater reconnects.. Applause to admins which can't use their powers in proper way..
