If you stream to PBBans and enable the Enforce Ban Level 1 flag, the hub will kick anyone who is found on the ggc banlist stored in our EBL from your server. Our ban list is the same when using the Enforce Bans flag. http://www.pbbans.com/info-center-beginnersguide.html

We import GGC bans daily into a secondary banlist called External Ban List (http://www.pbbans.com/mbi-ebl-details.html). Our MBi only includes bans made by us and no others.

Our GGC feeds do not include any 3rd party bans including GV. They are for GGC banned players only which is why the numbers are much lower than what is shown on the GGC website. Hijack the server and create fake data. Not that hard honestly. That's why we have strict requirements for using our services. People can use multiple streaming sites at once so for us to enforce everyones banlist is redundant. Plus it got us blocked when we started enforcing psb bans which we have now removed completely to avoid legal drama.

Simply put, it's done for security reasons to help prevent a repeat of this http://vimeo.com/1720594

As another year comes to an end we would like to take this time to thank all of our streamers, donors and supporters for making PBBans what it is today. Without you there would be no PBBans. It has been another great year for PBBans. While we had a few ups and downs, overall it's been very positive. From new site features and new games to a new working relationship with DICE. It was very refreshing to have a member of a development studio contact us about supporting Bad Company 2 which continued into newer games such as Medal of Honor. Mikael Kalms of DICE was willing to listen to our suggestions and does his best to provide solutions so we extend our thanks for the work he does. So with that we wish everyone Happy Holidays from all of us at PBBans. Have a safe and cheat free holiday season.

When adding a BC2 Vietnam server please add it under Battlefield Bad Company 2 and not Battlefield Vietnam.

On December 20, 2010 PBBans will be offline to perform maintenance on all of our servers, backups, software upgrades, etc. There is no ETA on how long this maintenance window will last but hopefully it will only last a few short hours. Updates will be posted on our twitter page located at http://twitter.com/pbbans

With the release of server R9, the streaming bug seems to be solved and we have resumed support for Medal of Honor. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by suspending Medal of Honor but after Crysis and Crysis Wars (Both never got fixed), we felt we had to make a stand against games with improper PB integration that interferes with streaming functionality.

Tests so far show the patch solved it. Going to give it another day or so then we will resume support.

Most of the studdering is gone with shader warming however fps drops are 10X worse in intense firefights. Can't even aim. So 5 weeks waiting for nothing.

We've re-enabled moh so admins can add them again for testing. We ask they update to R9 and report any streaming issues.

Bad Company 2 had a different GUID with every persona at first like heroes. I convinced DICE to use the master account (after dancing with EA legal) to generate the PB GUID so that it remained the same no matter what persona was used. I've made the same request to Easy so hopefully they will do it too. No bf heroes and bfp4f is done by EASY, MOH is done by DICE.

Our Beginners Guide (Starters Guide) has been updated with more detailed information about our service and hub features. http://www.pbbans.com/info-center-beginnersguide.html Also our English Hub Guide has been slightly updated to add a few links and corrections. http://www.pbbans.com/info-center-hubguide.html

http://www.pbbans.com/info-center-starterguide.html#hubfeatures Don't think that was listed in the feature list before but works well in Enemy Territory.

Even Balance has dropped support for Frontlines FOW. The Frontlines FOW section on the EB website has been removed. Streaming support will continue for the time being. Last version of the PB files can be found at http://www.pbbans.com/forums/files/frontlines-fuel-at-war-windows-file59.html

I'd switch to another game tbh. Player count is dropping by the day and I doubt the game will last much longer. The game had a good chance to take on CoD if done right but they dropped the ball and the ball rolled off a cliff never to be seen again. I can barely find a populated server anymore. http://img444.imageshack.us/img444/7220/mohdead.jpg Even the console versions are not looking so good: http://majornelson.com/archive/2010/11/30/live-activity-for-week-of-nov-15.aspx "I never played it but Medal of Honer must have been very bad. Not even in the top 20 less then two months after release."
