You forgot apostrophes around the kick reason.

Also, your event handler is incorrectly written. It takes in three arguments (event name, event source and handler function).

You also have to loop through all players in order to check pings like that. You also forgot the second argument from the outputChatBox function (the target element(s), which is root for now).

function checkPing( ) 
    for _,player in ipairs( getElementsByType( "player" ) ) do 
        local ping = getPlayerPing( player ) 
        if ( ping > 200 ) then 
            kickPlayer( player, "High ping (" .. ping .. ">200)" ) 
            outputChatBox( getPlayerName( player ) .. " was kicked for high ping (" .. ping .. ">200)", root, 255, 255, 0 ) 
        end 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler( "onResourceStart", resourceRoot, checkPing )

checking if the player has a ping higher than 200 on resourcestart isn't efficient.

You should use a timer.

And why is that? Any errors? I don't see why it wouldn't work. Make sure you use the code server-side.
