I still havent played RO2 since i bought it... guess i'm a sucker for the BF series :)

I bought this game last month, still havent played it past the "training" ...

I personally don't see the harm in the MBI being open.. I know of 'other' providers that backlog there Public Banlist for a Month.. as a Player and server admin I like the oppurtunity to download the Banlist and review it as I please (love doing a quick Name search within it) as for Game Admins who aren't streaming and using the banlist... well all they are doing is causing more "administration" work for themselfs... as it's simply easier to sign up and stream via PBHub and would be considered Less stressful on the server i.e. loading a banlist with 2000+ bans can cause some issues.. easier for Live Banning etc. Also on a sidenote... "No freeloaders" Why would you want to FORCE someone into streaming just for a Simple service... By them Downloading the Banlist they themselfs have Helped out the community by keeping rejects off their server. Not as well as them streaming via PBHub but whatever :D

to resolve this... I propose Everyone Needs to Send a Copy of there Drivers License / Government Issued ID so if you cheat we know where to come to Beat you... true story , just saying :).. But as a "retired staff member" here at PBBans and Mywonclan I do have to say the current Policies set on the site are NOT strict at all, 'other' providers ask for the same things as PBBans, and for those other providers that don't ask for certain criteria I would find a bit sketchy. All of these Policies are here to protect the Server Admins / Players and PBBans Reputation, the staff members are trying to do YOU a service so instead of complaining about how strict they are maybe try jumping in there shoes and understanding where their point of view is coming from. also I should state it really isn't that hard to setup a "free" website if thats your main concern.. You're lucky that PBBans isn't so anal that they require my proposed Actual Government Issued ID to stream haha ;)

the XML is not the file you need or want you want this file http://www.pbbans.com/mbi-download-bf3-dlb41.html it should download the bf3_pbbans.dat file (which contains all of the peoples GUID's that were caught cheating) i.e. Ban List. if you put that file in your pb folder and issue a pb_sv_banload bf3_pbbans.dat it will load the file (until server is restarted that is). I dont admin a BF3 server so i'm not sure if it's similar to the way BF2 was or what So maybe one of the Staff members here can tell ya exactly how to get everything going :) Maydax last i checked was the Man for the Battlefield Series :)

Yes you can download the Banlist for your game here and Import it into your game, You dont need to be streaming todo so.. however You will have to constantly update the pbbans.dat file its easier to just stream :)

please view http://www.pbbans.com/forums/index.php?sho...mp;#entry155121 and fix your servers :P

after contacting your hoster I've added your team account.

personally i hate FF, however I installed FF3 the other day and rarely use it... However after downloading some themes and addons etc for it I've made it my new Default browser.. I think i did it cuz it has a Facebook Plugin LOL :)

If your server is empty for a long time, it can be shown as non streaming. If this happens make sure you sent the pb_sv_task 0 7200 pb_sv_ver command. as noted http://www.pbbans.com/information.php?page=hubguide#bf2cc

it's a "HOME SERVER" with an ADSL Line ( not a T1 or T3 etc ) your 100mbit "dedicated line" is a joke. Even with the max package DSL Subscription with your hoster your getting 20Mbit Down, 1024Kbit Up (which it being DSL means it would be a consistant Stream/bandwitdth ) Also as per alot of the Major ISP's its quite common for DHCP to be used, even if your IP# was static theres a chance of your ISP Releaseing and renewing your ip#

a Mass "unban" is done via the HUB, however SOME Server Admins Dont use the HUB, they manually download the banlist and upload it to the game server and load it..

appeal it and i'll lift it. its the only way "I" can do it.

whats your server ip# and port?

Server Status Server is streaming Server Info Account AC #2215 Game Frontlines FOW Server IP 8.6.74.11:5476

I'm guessing you go by the ingame nickname of Thomas? GUID: 75740d26 You're not banned by PBBANS as far as i can see.

What's your GUID and whats the exact message your getting

its a known cheat file. it didn't just 'happen' to get into his game folder, he can appeal his ban however theres a better chance of him flying to the moon by flapping his arms then getting it approved.
