I still have not bought Battlefield 3 on PC yet (I have to buy one adapter to play on full settings)
but how bad is the custom servers thats been populating the game right now. from what I read in other forums a nightmare (mostly from the console version) where people are being booted from the game just for killing the admin (sore loser much) but is it the same issue with the PC version or it's actually less problematic on the PC version

I'd say it really depends on what server you join, I haven't experienced any scumbag admins on PC, but I don't play often so that could be it.
I have heard / seen admins banning / kicking people for reasons that are just ridiculous.
My suggestion is that you keep away from servers that are privately owned and stick with company servers or try to find a server with friendly admins.

There are some stupid admins around, but you'll also find good servers.

In any case, it's not the admins that will piss you off, it's the aimbotting (most of the clever ones don't abuse it but when you see someone turning 180 degrees, shooting your head while you're ducking behind the wall, and then turning 180 degrees again and moving on, all of this in less than 2 seconds, yeha...), the spawnkilling and baseraping and the exploitation of the game by people who just suck(there are people with thousands of M26 Dart kills already).

Generally speaking, the servers I've played on haven't been bad at all. It's like any other MP shooter...if you find a server you like playing on, add it as a Favorite and stick to those.

another question: (it's still a rumor but it could happen) there is going to be a call of duty elite like service called battlefield 3 premium. I never used COD Elite but to people who did, would you catagorize the to services as P2W that makes the game unbalanced or not?

Yep, exactly. Might not be a bad idea to jump in to some of the higher ticket count servers, if you don't mind longer games. They'll give you a better chance to build up and unlock some more toys.
