A lot can happen in the period between being a streaming admin ... downgrading to member .... and then returning to stream servers again. The vetting procedures we have in place have stood us in good stead over the years. It takes a staff member seconds to verify if a member has been a streaming admin in the past, and the vetting procedures will still kick in regardless of title :P

No one will be issued a ban for returning black screenshots. If you have suspicions of any player on your COD4 servers .......... make a demo of the player concerned and review it at your leisure.

Your possible new recruit has a ban issued by GGC ... why are you asking questions on PBBans forums :huh: Have the player concerned, appeal his ban over at GGC, For info: The only "legitimate" bans that PBBans recognizes are bans that we have the accompanying streamed log data for ... not every server streams via PBBans, and by the same token, not every server streams via GGC.

=HOG= stream 5 BF3 servers via PBBans. All 5 have the same flags enabled. if your banned from only one server, that means that the ban is a locally applied ban, set by the server admin. This can only be sorted out on the =HOG= forums with the appropriate server admin. Your issue is nothing to do with anything PBBans related.

The requirements will always apply to any group that wishes to use the full range of what PBBans has to offer. With over 12,000 team accounts it's impractical for us to register on each and every website that applies for full streaming. Some groups have had their sites etc attacked and prefer to keep things locked down. They have created a username and password for PBBans accounts staff use and we have no problem with any group that prefers to go down that route. The username and password is added to the team account notes of groups that prefer to keep things locked down tight, so it is a one off deal. The lite streaming option has been introduced primarily because, for every group that applies successfully for a team account, on average we have to turn away 6 other groups because they fail to meet the requirements. At least with the lite streaming option, a server admin can protect his servers with the PBBans Hub while he works on whats needed for full PBBans streaming.

Good to see our automated processes keeping up :P

What is your pbguid ?

Just be aware that when you add a server to an existing team account it does not start streaming instantly. The server will enter a queue and there it will stay until a staff member approves it, the current, average, wait time is less than 5 minutes.

A sure way to get yourself banned from any website is to keep creating duplicate forum accounts. All your past forum accounts have been deactivated. scythicadu83 is your last remaining forum account, please do not create another. A french staff member will assist you as soon as one is available.

As soon as a post appears that is totally unrelated to the topic it's time to lock the thread. Just a point of information first. If a player raises a MD5 tool violation because a cheat related .dll was found in the players game directory. and it was detected by a routine PBBans issued MD5 scan ..... the full digital fingerprint of the cheat related .dll will also be streamed at the same time the detection was made. If the player thinks he can explain how a mistake was made on any of the PBBans issued MD5 tool bans .... just click the "Appeal This Ban" tab on the ban link ..... we are all ears :P @ XYPHER95 If your wondering why your forum account is now set to restricted, it's because you are deemed untrustworthy.

As long as that cash cow keeps yielding money, EA/DICE will continue to milk it. The only surprising thing I have read over the last few weeks is that EA/DICE have a QA department :P

Your request for reactivation was answered by HSMagnet. He pointed out that the website attached to your team account is all about inkjet cartridges and not gaming. He pointed out that there are mandatory streaming requirements to be met by all groups that use PBBans services. He asked if you had any updated information for us. He gave you the link to whats required from every group that streams via PBBans; http://www.pbbans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=82423 If a reactivation ticket is not responded to after 7 days, I prune them :) You can reapply for team account activation at any time, but the mandatory streaming requirements must be met. Any anti cheat service that just requires forum registration and you can stream a server minutes later, has, at the very least, a corrupt ban list.

The #71177 cheat violation and subsequent bans are globalguid bans that have been issued by Even Balance themselves. Every global ban is exclusively issued and maintained by Even Balance, and no third party anti cheat site has any input what so ever. I find it funny that a lot of the cheat community members have failed to grasp the fact that EB is not affiliated to any third party anti cheat site in any shape or form, and most probably think they are irritating EB when we get ddos'd, when in fact any attack on any third party anti cheat site has no effect what so ever on Even Balance or PunkBuster™ software. Because the #71177 violation has nothing at all to do with the original topic, or PBBans for that matter, thread closed.

Works fine for me (firefox + latest java)

Done :) *************************************************************** Team: Unitgamer (Un1t) Account ID: 11110 Streaming Status: Streaming (1 / 1) ***************************************************************

The correct server address/port when adding a server to your team account can always be found in the battlelog server browser. When I checked the battlelog server browser, the correct server address/port for your server is 203.46.105.24:21350 Both the server address/port you had added to your team account, and the server address/port that shows in gametracker have the wrong port. I have added the correct server address/port to your team account and streaming kicked in instantly. I have left the wrong server address/port in your team account so you can see were you went wrong, just delete it once you have had a peek.

That looks like a kick from one of the server admins. Why not visit their forums and ask the question. http://www.hardcoregamersuk.co.uk

Your group has 2 team accounts none of which are streaming. Our rules are that forum members have one forum account, and each group has one team account. One of your team accounts needs to be closed down. Both you and FWD_Hard_Darkraver need to get together and let us know which team account you are going to keep, and which one is going to close down. *************************************************************** Team: Fighting War Devils ADMIN (FWD) Account ID: 12574 Streaming Status: Not Streaming (0 / 1) *************************************************************** or *************************************************************** Team: Fighting War Devils ([FWD]) Account ID: 12548 Streaming Status: Not Streaming (0 / 1) ***************************************************************

Fill out an application form and put the link to this topic in the comments box. If everything else checks out I am sure a low post count on your forums will not be an issue :)

PBBans does not manage any game servers. PBBans does not hold any bans associated with your pbguid. To resolve any issue that you have re playing on a particular server, you will have to contact the server administrator and ask what ban list they are using and why you are on it.

How can you claim to be ignored when we have bent over backwards to answer all your queries and tried to explain in simple terms (because of the language barrier) that the ban issued on your pbguid was successfully appealed and your pbguid does not appear on the PBBans ban list :mellow: I was not going to post this, but seeing as your most insistent that your being ignored, lets take it from the beginning. The only reason your issued ban was successfully appealed is because Even Balance did not receive your raised cheat violation because of a technical issue (probably dropped packets) PBBans always give the benefit of the doubt to the player when issues of this type crop up (it's rare but does happen on occasion) The ban that was issued on your pbguid was lifted on January 19 2012 and a unban command was sent via the PBBans Hub. We did all that despite you visiting our irc channel on January 19 2012 and typing this; This was posted as part of a troubleticket on March 23 2012; Those 2 quotes are you admitting that your PC was compromised by a family member and a "prohibited program"was used. Consider yourself very lucky that a technical issue forced us to remove a perfectly valid ban despite the admissions subsequently made by you. If you are having problems joining a particular server it's something you will have to take up with the admin of that particular server because PBBans do not hold a ban on your pbguid. Feel free to link any server admin to this forum topic if you think it will help your case.

That is quite true :) If anyone is having problems with the site, or anything else for that matter, the first port of call should be one of our alternate media sources such as twitter http://twitter.com/#!/pbbans or one of our irc channels (quakenet network - channel #pbbans or the gamesurge network - channel #pbbans)

Streaming will be back online as soon as the kiddies have finished their playtime :P I always take this kind of attack as a massive compliment as to how effective streaming servers via PBBans really is. If we were not making an impact on the cheating scene there would be no need to go to the time, trouble and expense that this type of attack takes. So the way to look at things is to say thanks to the attackers for giving PBBans a huge endorsement of our services, and for giving PBBans staff and the admins that use our services a huge boost of determination to continue the effort to keep cheaters off our game servers :)

It's an automatic process that had already kicked in when I came across this post :P
