Why would you throw anybody off the server whose rate is too high? It's a * limit*, not a guaranteed throughput.
If I could set my rate to 1,000,000 it's the same as having it at 50,000 if the bandwidth is 40,000. I set my rate to the highest value possible to prevent choke (and hence lag and stuttering), why would you kick people who do this? You have no proper grounds on which to do it (you can do whatever you like with your server, I'm not telling you you *can't* do this of course, just informing). This may be discouraging certain players from joining your server with such practices. Just my 2 cents.
