I've been asked this before but the MPi can not and will not be queried from a source other then our website. Too much resources involved to allow external querying. The MPi is the only place we store long term info on players.

you can not mix bf2cc ban lists with PB ban lists. GUIDs / CD HASHs are totally different.

Only the bans issued by the hub itself have announcements. Shows players that a cheater has been caught in real time mainly.

Go right ahead, call it "cracked bans R us" Hmm http://www.enom.com/domains/register.asp?s...-us&tld=com Guess having the most streaming servers and a good quality service liked by a vast number of admins is a failure :P

NoBS does not met them. Case closed.

As I said we do not support the streaming of cracked servers or from teams that suggest ways to bypass PB Server Bans. Being a member of PBBans is about trust and frankly I don' trust anyone from NoBS. No point in making continuous posts about it. NoBS will not be allowed to stream here. Topic Closed

May not be added for a while. Lot of recoding to add that right now.

I sent a mass unban command for the mask today (pb_sv_unbanguid MASK190. for those who want to know how)

We added a subnet mask on a spoofing player late last night while I coded the changes to suspend ET banning. I have removed the ban masks and you should be able to play again.

Effective immediately, we are no longer banning ET guids. The reason being innocent players are falling victim to GUID spoofing and being falsely banned by other players. We have seen many spoofed GUIDs over the last few days which will be removed shortly. All prior bans will remain on the MBi. However this does not mean streaming servers will be unprotected. All of the Hub scanning features are still active for ET. The only difference is when violations are found the player is kicked but not added to the MBi. Update EvenBalance has updated the PB client and server to prevent GUID spoofing however it only works if pb_sv_guidrelax is set to 0 and pb_sv_guidauth is set to 1. Therefore we can not resume banning as spoofing is still possible. Update 2 We have coded the Hub to check if a GUID is verified and if so it will be banned when bannable violations are raised. If not, it will be added to the unofficial banlist.

Because it's a method of detecting private hacks that is very effective. Cheat sites are always advancing and we must do the same. The ban was lifted because it was part of a test to validate an appeal claim. The admin tried various scenario's with the binds until the system recognized it as a bannable offence. This is part of our quality control. We rarely conduct such tests on the live Hub but they are sometimes necessary since our test Hub isn't always online. We do not conduct any tests that involve using actual cheats on any public or streaming servers. I will assume this is about =XE=Bodies ban found at http://www.pbbans.com/mbi-viewban-b464093f-vb123707.html and http://www.pbbans.com/mbi-viewban-a84f5151-vb124225.html

Yes it is possible if a server is setup to scan BINDs and you bind a known cheat cvar / bind but if anyone puts for example a bind _toggle_hack in their binds I don't think they are very aware of anti-cheat imo. Bottom line is 1. don't blindly type in commands that people tell you to. If you are unsure post it at an anti-cheat site to verify if it's valid. 2. never use 3rd party configs. Keep those two in mind and you should never have a problem.

May add it when I redo the batch ban search layout

Well it's a little more then 5 years, started in Oct 2003.

Also if you have windows vista try the following: http://www.pbbans.com/info-center-pbsetup....troubleshooting

There is :P ex http://www.pbbans.com/mbi-ranks-cod4.html In the MBi home page click Overview for a game and that gives all kinds of options :)

That's why. Online cd key stores often resell the same key to multi people (often hackers) and therefore the guid gets banned. Always buy games from retail outlets or approved online distribution systems such as steam.
