EvenBalance has requested us to lift all Violation GAMEHOOK #125144 bans for CoDWaW. 56 Call of Duty World at War Bans have been removed from the MBi and unban commands sent out for hub streaming servers on Feb 4, 2010.

EvenBalance has dropped support for Battlefield 1942. The BF1942 section on the EB website has been removed. Streaming support will continue for the time being. http://www.pbbans.com/forums/files/battlefield-1942-windows-file47.html http://www.pbbans.com/forums/files/battlefield-1942-linux-file48.html

He is the lead programmer for the PC version of BFBC2. We had a chat today but still haven't found a solution that works for both parties but we are one step closer. The evil EA lawyers are the main issue with server files it seems. I wouldn't get your hopes up but who knows miracles do happen :)

I predicted before the beta came out that it would be released on Thursday and hacks would be released by the weekend. http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/7928/bfbc2radar10.jpg http://img29.imageshack.us/img29/5244/bfbc2radar9.jpg http://img39.imageshack.us/img39/2076/bfbc2radar7.jpg http://img39.imageshack.us/img39/9977/bfbc2radar6.jpg Another one has these notes: http://i45.tinypic.com/2evxj7d.jpg http://i45.tinypic.com/2h5oe8l.jpg Had to bring it up for the people who think keeping all the server files private would stop the hacks.

And no streaming support from PBBans :)

From a hack site :P Guess that explains the BF2 like movement. Frostbite is based off the BF2 engine.

Found these on the neowin forums http://img59.imageshack.us/img59/8167/bfbc22.jpg http://img251.imageshack.us/img251/8051/bfbc2ss.jpg Interestingly enough

I had a good laugh at these http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-c5h4FvX1dI http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=spZlOTHy5Pw

There's the "balance" word again. Seems game devs are not building games we want but the ones they want and you will play on their terms. With the way PC gaming is going, you may as well buy an Xbox cause games now a days are just ports anyway. Man if you walked into a retail store and they told you what you want and didn't listen to you, how long would they be in business.

And here comes the "balance" reasons like IW did with MW2 http://twitter.com/Demize99/status/7990083689

On January 28th 2010, between 7:30AM and 8:00AM Eastern Standard time all of PBBans services will be offline due to new power infrastructure upgrades at the datacenter. Downtime is expected to be minimal and we will work to get service restored as quickly as possible.

Not sure where it was said but there is a post in EA UK about it. http://forums.electronicarts.co.uk/battlefield-bad-company-2-pc/866456-put-battlerecorder.html Also

Most likely PB will be used to kick it.

We the anti cheat and gaming community think it's time for help. The Haitians need donations to survive and build up their country. If you are a clan, another community, or just a single gamer think about giving some money away to help them. $5 or $10 or whatever you can afford. Every buck counts! We have chosen the Red Cross as a good spot to send your money to. They exist in almost every country and will use the money well. Below you will find donation sites of the Red Cross in some countries. American Red Cross | http://www.redcross.org/en/donatemoney (Paypal Accepted) British Red Cross | http://www.redcross.org.uk/80643 German Red Cross | https://www.drk.de/spenden/online-spenden.html Clinton Bush Haiti Fund | http://www.clintonbushhaitifund.org/ Paypal users can also use the charity donation site provided by eBay and select "American Red Cross" http://donations.ebay.com/charity/event.jsp?NP_ID=-52#donatenow Thank you!

Not our problem, we ban GUID's not people. Blame IW / Activision for the crappy security.

So just because yours was denied means appeals are ignored. I think someone is a little If you appealed PowerBot.exe and it was denied then it must have matched a cheat file we have on file. No reason that should be in your game directory.

All bans can be appealed. Not sure how hard the appeal button is to see. Oh so it went from your "friend" to you being banned. If you don't want to give a link to your ban then we can't even attempt to help you. IWnet is nothing like PB and our service so they can't be compared.

So you got banned for an INI. Care to share the ban link?

Have you really played MW2? It's a total hack fest. Count the number of "hackers" posts on steam and IW forums. MW2 is becoming the most hacked game ever. If PB is so bad why is the rest of the cod series still supported. PB costs money and IW wanted to make the cheapest game they could. And I banned the temp email addy service you used :P
