Occasionally, I would be playing counter strike and ping would jump into the 400's and I'd be kicked from whatever server I was on.

A lot of Quake/CS servers have something called a ping cap; these monitor your ping, and if it goes above x (set by the server administrator), it kicks you to make room for lower-pinged players.

Usually, it's 450.

I remember seeing an Australian server with a cap of 50.
That was funny because it was hosted on a suburban connection, so even his neighbours could jump to about 80 regularly. :D
