Hello PBBans,
I have a bit of a question / problem which I am hoping someone can assist me with.
Myself and a friend are both members (not senior or leaders) of a clan and we both admin one of thier COD2 servers which is streaming to PB.
Now I have set up our own small public server for my friend and I (and members of the public) to play on which runs the mods, gametypes and maps we like.
It's just a place for us to play on when we fancy something diferent, or where we can run with what ever weapons, or tweaks etc.
Now I'm very fond of PunkBuster and am VERY keen to keep the cheats at bay.
We used to spend alot of time having to stop play and kick people out which ruins the fun when you have to keep spectating suspected cheats and dealing with them.
So, we would like to run PB Streaming to our server to help keep it free from "scum".
However, because I rent and maintain this server, I don't have a website, forums, clan members etc.
There is very little point in me creating a site, forums etc.. Basicly forming a clan site for no reason when the server is purely there for a group of friends to play on and also the public if they wish.
Now I could make the server private, but, we like playing with other players, it's part of the fun.
All we would like to do is run the server, play on it and have it protected to ensure fair play for us and for all who use it.
I have had an idea though which might help in our application, but I wanted to seek advice first before taking any action.
Could the clan I am in, apply / extend thier streaming account to this server if the clan admins agreed? or would that be out of the question?
All we want to do is run an honest and cheat free server but we are stuck on how to acheive this without building a website that in all fairness, wont ever be used.
Sorry to be a pain with such a difficult question, but we would really like to stream some how.
Regards, Mike.
