LoL No.

another "reason for concern" are for instance YouTube-posts linking to deadly undetectable cheats; http://is.gd/dZo8yU / http://al.ly/QDH (interesting parts are always "DNS Queries" and "Communication" paragraphs bottom of page) ... resulting in, among other things, 'cheat submissions' http://rghost.net/38281939 (just ignore rghost, its trojan-hosting); more info: http://ddg.gg/?q=ufr-stealer

imo the main benefit of BF1942 in comparison to other games of the years 200x was the player's console command / IGNORE slot#

At least we have > 200 PBSS bans for bfp4f, the last one http://www.pbbans.com/mbi-viewban-ee3b058b-vb275291.html from September 27, 2012. So submission is not impossible, despite errors. Difference to other games is, the bfp4f-guid as well the linked IP will return a Blank in MPi-searches (see Post #1: 5) Many players ... ) ... so MPi will not be flooded by invalid guid-links (practically: potentially all IPs seen in bfp4f and all bfp4f-guids would be "Linked" together). Nevertheless the IP still can be found with an MBi-Search: http://www.pbbans.com/mbi.php?action=8&searchtype=USERIP&searchdata=186.94.131.219

Face what?

sure, cause: Unidentified is Unidentified is Unidentified there is no question, just a background: cultural misunderstanding (salvation and/or damnation from above - the core of any superstition/religion) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacques_Vallée#Research_papers

nope, this:

iron is 32bit - no big deal to try it yourself using the portable No idea here, for all the EA/Origin plugin spammage (mainly just to get the bfp4f patches to update our nametag-hack detection) i use FF portable 3.6.28 :P ... currently under winxp 32bit sp3 i found FF > 12 an unusable annoyance - slooow, buggy, crashfox vs. hangfox, crappy add-on support (under winxp32 likewise w7 64) so under w7 64bit its solely Waterfox for me as of now, no more hang/crash/stall since, it even runs old plugins and themes np. Where required (lack of 64 bit support) i have iron portable and FF3.6 + FF12 portable handy.

fed up with Google Inc. spying on you? Give this a whirl http://www.srware.net/en/software_srware_iron_chrome_vs_iron.php | portable resp. http://ddg.gg/about.html

fed up with Slowfox? if you are looking for a stable 64bit release give this a whirl http://waterfoxproject.org/ (windows only)

spambot alert :P

the noted violations result from stock file checks issued by a single AA 2 server. Namely we see an unknown map- and an unknown texture- file. (unknown is all we have to say, not worth any research really) PBBans neither supports nor recommends stock file checks, as the resulting violations (kicks not bans) are arbitrary. The reasons for the resulting kicks are various, mainly Version issues (e.g. server runs an older/newer patch/mod-version than client), some server checks were unreliable, untested or even experimental ex.: "under development use at your own risk" .vs. this one is corrupt: missing/empty "" Version-Variable will raise random kicks - you note the different file signatures. PBBans MPi used to list negligible violations as well prior to 2008, as at that time admins usually knew how to rate these, typically: "not cheat related". The only problem i see here are server admins that have no idea what they are talking about. PBBans.com is a punkbuster support site, no game support site. PBBans.com does not hold or maintain players's "accounts" in any shape or form. Who sees a player, an "account" when looking at an MPI search-result and identifies linked (by IP) GUIDs as "same person" gives active proof he is an idiot. MPi database will not be touched or altered. Not even to fix stupid. Feel free to quote this topic or reply elsewhere (preferably in full incl. the deserved abuse ;P)

we are not associated with handbag Battle logs in any shape or form. http://www.pbbans.com/aboutus.php http://www.pbbans.com/information-center.html direct or indirect linking to cheat sites is not permitted here = topic lock - might ask EA for the same practice, if they give a damn about their own content, why/how should we

Now we see a clean record. GJ. as opposed to yesterday As i said i have no idea how origin sells BF2 keys, just, i can not imagine it was anything completely new that is not backward compatible to old BF2 Reg-key, most likely it is just an encrypted Reg-key - like the copies sold on Steam use. We are used to BF2 players building myths around their flimsy "accounts", as if they would mean anything :P

Nonsense. To put it straight, you are up a wrong road with that assumption. As long as you have a clean key in your windows registry you are good to go. Regardless of any EA/origin mumbo-jumbo. Now you have a dirty key in your windows registry, that was already banned by Punkbuster before you "logged in" the first time after 3-5 years and nothing (no useless login or name) will change that fact. With a clean key/guid in your windows registry you can use any "name", incl. all that were seen with -- Note the phrasing, Not: are banned; PB ignores names, that is arbitrary information -- past cheat-bans. The leaked key you used (and still use) is globally banned by Evenbalance.com (out of business on all pb-enabled servers, forever, period). Punkbuster genarates a GUID from the said registry key. Names, soliders or so called ea/origin accounts will not change a key=guid / are entirely meaningless, misleading, a customer wash off. Bottomline you need a new clean key (= copy of the game). You have none. What you have is a banned key (in action) and a refunded one (inactive, and never was active, see:) Regarding game: BF2 we have no records of you but with the leaked key, that is the only key you were seen with on streaming BF2 servers. So this thread is pointless until you had a clean key, bottomline. If you doubt that, export the registry key (1) 1. before you uninstall 2. after uninstall (emtpy?) 3. after a clean install (new value?) - quit and check the key before you login ofc ... just to make sure 4. after login (any changes?) 5. change login (any changes?) You can setup punkbuster client logging http://www.pbbans.com/info-center-clientlog.html#setuplogging to cross check that the pb-guid corresponds with the Reg-key in action. ____ (1) - Run Regedit.exe - locate HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Electronic Arts\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2 - right click - Export (NT4.reg / *.txt is readable with notepad, otherwise try wordpad.exe or any free (hex-) editor) ---> Keep the clean BF2key.reg as a Backup

i dunno how Origin generates 'CD'-keys. Likely you had to do a clean install incl. uninstalling the old version. The key for online MP servers (==> punkbuster GUID) is stored here HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Electronic Arts\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\ergc . BF2 ingame logins are a wash off, i can login with an empty key (renamed registry key) and can run local servers back and forth, as soon as pb kicks in online its crash to desktop. and i have a Steam copy.

ignore user names. the game installation uses the old banned key. http://forum.ea.com/eaforum/posts/list/246664.page

this http://www.pbbans.com/forums/announcement-global-pb-hardware-and-guid-bans-a2-in-forum427.html that key is definitely dead, irreversibly. nobody cares about nicknames or ea accounts, new game is sufficient. You are still playing with the old game installation, and the globally banned key here: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Electronic Arts\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\ergc

Though i don't do steaming requirements support *, i see no objections. All other streaming requirements left aside (e.g.: no duplicate forum-User-accounts ;P), the answer is: YES. You used a leaked GUID (Oct 16, 2008 - Feb 03, 2009) cod4 b570b929 that was already banned (2007), and was used to cheat again (Mar 31, 2009) after you quit using it - your legit GUID b86fe45e was logged from Feb 17, 2009 onwards. So all i can see so far is a typical 'leaked key / keygen' issue, no proven cheating history. Two out of 124 User IPs that used this leaked key cheated, MPi's Guid- and IP- History functions show you were none of them. * some quotes from those who do: [...] My new one is: b86fe45e I got the old GUID like a few years ago through a key generator, I never should have done that as someone got it banned The ban was triggered from a UK based IP, you're not in the UK so there shouldn't be an issue there. Are you planning to stream many servers? If so will you have a number of admins or just yourself? his GUID: http://www.pbbans.com/mpi/results.php?srchtype=GUID&srchdata=b86fe45e&game_id=27&showAT=yes&safeview=yes used leaked&banned key: http://www.pbbans.com/mbi-viewban-b570b929-vb50380.html and another one initiated by yourself: http://www.pbbans.com/forums/should-i-be-worried-t95976.html/page__view__getlastpost

According to PBBans Master Player index (MPi), collected from all streamed punkbuster-server log data, the leaked GUID http://www.pbbans.com/mbi-viewban-b570b929-vb50380.html , cod4 b570b929 I. was used from your current IP, Host: ip51cff8ae.direct-adsl.nl , ISP: KPN/Planet-Technologies; Geo-Loc.: Utrecht/Amsterdam (NL) on: =TWF=Mark - Feb 03, 2009 =TWF=Mark - Jan 23, 2009 =TWF=Mark - Oct 16, 2008 source: PBBans MPi GUID-History & PBBans MPi IP-History - No name searches ============================== II. Now the cheat related violations (2) raised for this GUID, cod4 b570b929 , were seen from IPs: 1. Mar 31, 2009: Violation MultiHack #79495: Eias 79.183.229.104 Host: bzq-79-183-229-104.red.bezeqint.net , ISP: Bezeq International-Ltd; Geo-Loc.: spamlem (IL) 2.

So did the proficient league admins, don't they: http://www.eurodomination.net/user.php?userID=20478
