Just to make things clear.
PBBans is a privately run, third party anti cheat streaming service with no affiliation to Even Balance or PunkBuster™ software.
Even Balance have banned your pbguid from every BF3 PB enabled server.
Even Balance staff do not have access to this forum section so anything you post here will not help resolve your issue in any way.
All we can offer is advice and that has already been posted up.
You are convinced Even Balance has made a mistake.
Even Balance are convinced that there is no mistake.
The only way to resolve your issue is via a troubleticket and open some sort of dialogue with Even Balance staff (preferably with some kind of proof that a mistake has occurred)

I do not see anything productive or informative coming from leaving this topic open for much longer, so do not be surprised to find it locked in the near future.
Even Balance employ numerous detection patterns to detect online cheating.
Unfortunately, with the amount of free software available for download these days (anti virus / overlays etc etc) a small amount of those detection patterns are later proven to be "false positives".
Even more unfortunate is that the small amount draw publicity and the vast majority of successful detection patterns are just taken for granted.As it stands right now #81570 is a valid cheat violation that is also accompanied by a global ban issued by Even Balance themselves.

The reply you got to your forum ticket is all you need to know.

As stated previously ;
Global GUID bans are issued and maintained, exclusively by Even Balance.
So using the PBBans guid check tool will reveal nothing.
However using a globalguid check tool reveals;
Third party anti cheat sites such as PBBans have no input nor control what so ever re global GUID bans.A troubleticket with Even Balance is the only thing that can help you.
Make sure to add any information to it that you think will help your cause (don't forget your GUID).
Also make sure that you have told Even Balance that your ban is a global GUID ban.
PBBans is a third party, privately run, anti cheat site and is not affiliated in any shape or form to Even Balance.

You need to apply for a team account before you can stream a server, extra security checks are made on all streaming applicants that are far more rigorous than the checks we employ on forum account registrants.

Nothing we can do for you here.

Yours is a globalguid ban.
Here is all we have re global bans;
Global GUID bans are issued and maintained, exclusively by Even Balance.
Third party anti cheat sites such as PBBans have no input nor control what so ever re global GUID bans, so using the PBBans appeal system to appeal a globally banned GUID is useless for all parties involved.
We (PBBans) will deny the appeal made through our systems due to the above reasons. A troubleticket with Even Balance is the only thing that can help you. Make sure to add any information to it that you think will help your cause (don't forget your GUID). Also make sure that you have told Even Balance that your ban is a global GUID ban.
Quick info:
1. Global GUID bans are issued and maintained by Even Balance themselves.
2. Third party anti cheat sites have no input what so ever re global GUID bans.
3. Global GUID bans are normally issued by Even Balance after a period of "silent logging".
4. "silent logging" is when cheat use is detected and logged by PunkBuster software but no action is taken at the time.
5. When the "silent logging" phase is over, Even Balance issue a global GUID ban on every pbguid that was detected during the "silent logging" phase.
6. The only reason your pbguid appears on the PBBans ban list is because you joined a PBBans streaming server diretGlobal GUID bans are issued and maintained, exclusively by Even Balance.

If you feel that you have recieved a global GUID or Hardware ban in error, you may submit a support ticket to Even Balancec after Even Balance activated the global GUID ban on your pbguid.

Actually you don't appear on the PBBans ban list because you have not tried to join a PBBans protected server since Even Balance slapped a global guid ban on your pbguid.
Only EB can assist you because Global GUID bans are issued and maintained, exclusively by Even Balance.
EB staff do not even have access to this forum section so no amount of posting on here is going to make one iota of difference re your issue.
Your global ban has absolutely nothing to do with PBBans (a privately run, third party, anti cheat streaming service) in any shape or form.

Hello everyone, i have a question for you. The other day i was playing with a guy in my private unranked server. this guy was using a kind of cheat (i really dont know the name of the program). After 20 minutes aproximately, the game of him closed. As i had procon opened, i read that he had received a ban, i deleted it (my mistake, i didnt copy the log), he entered to the server again with no problem. Here is my question. I've been checking for the last 3 days in anticheat.com, ggc-stream, and in pbbans, his GUID but his account is clean. how could it be?
thanks in advance.
Chris.
The default "punishment" when a player raises a cheat violation via PB software is a 2 minute kick. :o so unless you are streaming via another anti cheat site you can not have read that the player received a ban.
It's the proactive admin or 3rd party anti cheat service that apply the actual ban.
You do not stream your server via PBBans ... you do not even have a team account.
So if a player raises a cheat violation on your server, 2 minutes later he can rejoin it with no problem.
Solution to your issue;
http://www.pbbans.com/streaming-application.html
or
manually add the players pbguid to your servers pbbans.dat file

America's Army Proving Grounds [95.141.40.138:8777] added my server. Approval streaming please?
First of all, you added the server to your team account with the wrong port (95.141.40.138:8777)
The correct server address is 95.141.40.138:7778 which I have added to your team account for you.
The server is not configured properly for PBBans Hub streaming.
Please make sure that your pbsv.cfg contains all 3 ucon profiles;
pb_sv_uconadd 1 69.65.22.152 pbbhub2-1 pbbanshub
pb_sv_uconadd 1 69.65.22.153 pbbhub2-2 pbbanshub
pb_sv_uconadd 1 69.65.22.154 pbbhub2-3 pbbanshub
and make sure your root pb folder contains a blank file pbucon.use

Your team account currently looks like this;
*************************************************************** Team: Thunderteam ([TT]_F.i.K) Account ID: 15770 Streaming Status: Streaming (1 / 2) *************************************************************** --------------------------------------------------------------- Server List --------------------------------------------------------------- AAPG - 176.57.184.100:7778 (Streaming) AAPG - 178.162.199.214:7778 ---------------------------------------------------------------
Make sure that you have all 3 ucon profiles in your pbsv.cfg;
pb_sv_uconadd 1 69.65.22.152 pbbhub2-1 pbbanshub
pb_sv_uconadd 1 69.65.22.153 pbbhub2-2 pbbanshub
pb_sv_uconadd 1 69.65.22.154 pbbhub2-3 pbbanshubAll 3 are added automatically when the automated Hub set up tool is used, but only the first one is present in the pbsv.cfg available for download.
The reason for the 3 ucon profiles is so we can switch IPs when an issue is prevalent, especially handy right now as we have been under constant ddos attack for the last couple of weeks (and still ongoing)
The reason we do not have all 3 ucon profiles in the manual download pbsv.cfg is to make it just a little bit harder for potential and actual attackers to access our streaming IPs.
Also please be aware that when you add a server to a team account via account manager the server then enters a queue ... the final addition is always done by a staff member in case of any obvious issues, so once added there will be a short delay between adding and streaming.

I only do English but I hope your English is better than my Spanish :P
The only thing we can offer players in your position is advice, and here is what we advise;
First and foremost you have to make sure that you have a secure Origin account.
The best way to do that is to use a fresh email address,create a new Origin account and start again from scratch.
1. Use a strong password that is unique to Origin and not used on any other forum/blog etc
2. Do not allow windows to remember your usernames and passwords.
3. Do not click links you are unsure of (especially game and/or cheat related)
4. Do a full system scan for malware.
5. If you think EA is somehow culpable for allowing someone else to access your Origin account, ask them to provide you with a new game key.
6. If you think you are somehow culpable for allowing someone other than yourself to access your Origin account, buy a new game key.
7. pbguid 3385ffe132384838fbed7241018ceeaa has been compromised and the only fix is to get a new game cd key.pbguid 3385ffe132384838fbed7241018ceeaa also appears on the anticheat.inc ban list and if you will have to use the anticheat.inc appeals protocols if you intend to contact them for any appeal.
You will probably get the same response from them as you do here so at least you know what to expect. (small comfort)
I would also like to point out that not every pb enabled server streams via a third party anti cheat site and not every pb enabled server uses the PBBans ban list, PBBans does not even force their ban list on admins that use PBBans services, it's a totally "opt in" thing that server admins make a conscious choice to be part of,so there are still pb enabled servers that you can play on. -
You have 2 servers attached to your team account.
5.101.165.207:31200 - streaming.
188.122.68.117:25500 - not streaming. -
The above guy is banned Globally by evenbalance, so will he be able to join- 1) Servers streaming to PBB 2) Servers not-streaming to PBB
Suppose I need to share somewhere the proof that a guy is banned, then I submit his MBI or uMBI link(eg- http://www.pbbans.com/mbi-viewban-010a61eb-vb366284.html)
But how to share the ban link(URL) in case of Global Bans like above image!
Where can I find the ban list of evenbalance!
That is old information you have posted ... the guy is not banned by anyone and I have removed your image containing his full pbguid.
The player did raise a cheat violation (Violation (GAMEHACK) #81567) on June 21, 2014 which was later declared a false positive by Even Balance.
http://www.pbbans.com/forums/viol-81567-bans-removed-bf3-t189828.html
Even Balance do not publish their global ban list.
Players in receipt of a global ban, issued by EB, can not join any pb enabled server regardless if it is streaming or not.

Then what should i do now?
Go back to Even Balance.
pbguid 1134468143cea870e4901beb40947176 has been globally banned by Even Balance;
ggc will / should tell you the same thing if you use / used their appeals system.
The only reason you are not on the PBBans ban list is because you have not played on a PBBans protected server.

Hello PsB,
Been a long good to see you're still taking the fight to the hackers. I was looking around and couldn't' find what I was looking for. I'm need some help with a demo review of a player. I know we can't ban off it, but I need a set of eyes that can make a call on a player. Is that something you can do here? Please let me know ty
Prime.
PsB have ceased to exist for a couple of years now, this is PBBans forums :P
You last streamed a server here May 01, 2011 so if the demo you are talking about does not come from a streamed source it's a waste of time reviewing it because there will be no streamed logs to verify authenticity of the demo.

i know that, but you may say me some ways to do it? i feel that there is
Feel away ..... there aint.

You have to remember that the default "punishment" for raising an EB cheat violation is a 2 minute kick :blink:
If that cheat violation is raised on a PBBans protected server, the pbguid that raised the kick is placed on the PBBans ban list.
EB do issue a lot more global bans than what they used to a few years ago, but the majority of pbguids that raise an EB cheat violation are still only kicked for 2 minutes.
http://www.pbbans.com/about-pbbans.html
Unfortunately we do not have unlimited resources and we rely on donations to pay our way so we have to limit access levels to our tools and services.
Show that you truly support the anti cheat ethos by actively streaming servers and you get access to all we have to offer.
Your best path would be to join a group that streams their servers and get yourself added to their team account as an extra admin :)

If a pbguid appears on the PBBans ban list, that pbguid is banned from every server that uses the PBBans ban list.
So a player whose pbguid appears on the PBBans ban list can still find PB enabled servers to play on because not every server admin uses the PBBans ban list.Any cheat related violation that is raised directly by PunkBuster™ software, as per this list;
#50000s - Aimbot #60000s - Wallhack #70000s - Multihack #80000s - Gamehack #90000s - 'Cheat' Video Drivers #100000s - Speedhack #110000s - Autofire #120000s - Game Hook #130000s - Attempted PunkBuster Hack
is added automatically to the PBBans MBI.
PBBans will also issue bans were applicable, for cheat related MD5 scans, cheat related cvars, demo's, PB screenshots and cheat file matches.
If a pbguid is globally banned by Even Balance, that pbguid is banned from every PB enabled server of that particular game genre.
Example:
if a BF4 pbguid is globally banned by EB, that particular pbguid is banned from every BF4 PB enabled server and the player will not have any PB enabled servers to play on -
1. Terms & Definitions
1.1 Game Server - A game server shall be defined as a network server running a program that acts as a hub for clients to connect to for the purpose of interaction. For the purposes of clarification, PBBans will only allow streaming from dedicated servers and not from LAN or personal computers.
Servers:Servers MUST be hosted at a data centre. This means that you can rent a server off a Game Server Provider (GSP), co-locate your server or rent space on a dedicated server in a data centre.
Any server that is situated at home or in your home office/business that you can access via your network is not acceptable. There is no reason that you should be able to play the game on the same IP as the server that you wish to stream to PBBans.

Bear in mind that it is the player who is ultimately responsible for the security of his pbguid/Origin account, the only thing we can offer to players in your situation is advice.
We never remove valid bans from our ban list and there is absolutely no doubt that pbguid 1377a9fe0a8c86512a579f4d4667fb6e was used to cheat with

I have got my main server streaming ok and so was my scrim server when set to" public " in the admin.txt.
Yet when I change the scrim server to private and password the server for events my streaming does not work.
Could you please tell me if there is another method to stream a private server...
Thanks
There is no other method, "one size fits all" so to speak :)
That's the beauty of Hub streaming, unless everyone stops streaming, the issue is always client side.

Fail ... I am sure you meant to post Lock.
With the total lack of meaningful input ... even from the topic starter and recipient of a globalguid ban, there is not much point in leaving this topic open.
If all you have given Even Balance is stats from third party anti cheat sites, and flawed stats to boot, then I can confidently predict that you have no chance of having your globalguid ban lifted.
Only a small portion of servers actually stream their logs via a third party streaming service.
