We keep the MD5/cvar scans etc bang up to date for ET. The PBBans Hub still kicks for detected bannable violations but does not add the player caught to the MBI. We do, however, have an unofficial banlist that admins that use our services can download and use. The one thing that we can not do is compromise the integrity of our banlist's. As long as ET server admins have control of the pb_sv_guidrelax setting and the pb_sv_guidauth setting, we can not, in all good conscience, place potentially innocent players on our official banlist. We had proof of concept sent to us showing how easy the spoofing was to apply. The ones that stood out all had a columbian IP, the others had IP's from all over europe and the USA. That, in a nutshell, is why PBBans decided to suspend banning re ET. It's worth noting that ET is the only PB enabled game that has this issue.

Maybe after a high school education that will teach him to string a coherent sentence together, without profanity or racist content. :P

Reactivate team account
fozzer replied to SneakyBaron's topic in Streaming Questions and Troubleshooting
/me sighs Not a good idea to stream other peoples servers via an existing team account, in fact its something we will discourage at every opportunity, and once flagged up will normally end up with the team account master user being given a warning re such practises. Looks like Buff beat me to the delete server button. -
Reactivate team account
fozzer replied to SneakyBaron's topic in Streaming Questions and Troubleshooting
Its ok Buff, earlier the server was in the queue along with 3 others and I added the 4 in one go. I guess the auto updater kicked in a short time later :P -
If you lived in the UK I could point you in the right direction :P As long as your prepared to sit on your hands and put up with a rubbish ISP, the problems you are getting re lag will persist @ iChaos If you have some specific cfg changes that will help aleviate but not eradicate 1Flash's lag issues, feel free to share :)

Done :)

It never ceases to amaze me, the lengths some people will go to making themselves look ridiculous. From the well thought out forum topic, to the leet content of the initial post, all contribute to what the casual reader of our forums will assume re character / integrity / intelligence quotient etc etc of the initial poster. From the moment he pressed the "post this topic" button he gave everyone an insight into what levels of the above traits he has reached. God knows what he will post when he reaches the "terrible teens" phase of his life :P

Best of luck Dean, keep up the fight Bro.

Theres nothing to talk about. The only person responsible for securing your pc is you, nobody else, and given the information I am about to list below, I would suggest that you run a complete malware scan on your pc because the cd key you use is "out in the wild". http://www.pbbans.com/mbi-viewban-c3df674d-vb147001.html The pbguid is a unique 32 digit hexadecimal hash (digital fingerprint) of the game cd key. What is undisputable is that a player with a pbguid of e1561b6190f7d5ebdb5c9dd3c3df674d was caught cheating on a PBBans streaming server. The players IP points to the U.S.A. The same cd key has been used by players based in the U.S.A. / Germany / Netherlands / France. We know that your not the player who raised the ban (we have a policy of moving players with a cheating history to a special forum section) The options available to you (after you have secured your pc) are; 1. Play on servers that do not use the PBBans banlist. 2. Buy a new game cd and move on. There is no way we are going to remove a perfectly valid ban from our systems. No one is saying you cant play cod4 mp ever again, what we are saying is that you will not be able to play on a server that uses the PBBans banlist with the banned pbguid. Not every server streams to PBBans or uses our banlist, but a lot do. The choice is yours what you do next.

Any bannable violation that is raised directly by PB software is placed on the MBI (master ban index) automatically by our systems. The alias / IP is incremental information and bears no relation what so ever to the issued ban. The only thing that concerns us is the pbguid of the player that raised the violation. The pbguid is a 32 digit hexadecimal hash of the game cd key (digital fingerprint) The facts we have at our disposal is that a player with a pbguid of 6fd73e7df1c1b0d6ac8daff26923a5f1 joined a PBBans streaming server and was detected directly by PB software for running a multihack. The player appealed the ban and admitted to running a rank hack EvenBalance have ruled that the multihack violation was not raised in error. The incremental info that accompanies this pbguid, is that the cd key has never been used anywhere else other than Italy, and thats were your from :) The options open to you at this time are; 1. buy a game cd from a genuine retail outlet and move on. 2. play on servers that do not use the PBBans banlist.

If your confident that you now meet the streaming requirements, I have cleared the path for you to make another application. I know it seems like we are just being a pain in the butt with all these requirements etc, but every one was introduced to combat security issues etc and to protect the admins that use our services and the players that play on PBBans streamed servers, borne out of past experience. Its a hard "club" to gain entry to, we make it deliberately so :) but the advantages are pretty apparent once you gain full access. Best of luck.

Try posting over on GGC forums; http://www.ggc-stream.com/index.php?area=guid_search&guid=645db8015000b0a4dd16090e9f2b8895&action=do_search&do=guid_search

The server address exists on the MPI. As per our streaming requirements post; Source: http://www.pbbans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=82423 Ask your host for a new IP.

The one thing you can never accuse PBBans of is being stuck in a rut making do with the same old :P Lost count of the amount of Hub features / upgrades / forum upgrades etc etc that have abounded over the last few years. Excellent job MaydaX :)

Sorted :)

You do not have a fixed IP. For example, the IP you have posted with on these forums has changed since you opened this topic. If this is your ban; http://www.pbbans.com/mbi-viewban-da442475-vb145399.html click the "appeal this ban" tab and follow the instructions.

All done. DiabloGreg is now set as the team account master user. I also changed the contact e-mail address using the mail addy DiabloGreg used to register a forum account with PBBans.

Sure this isn't you ? http://www.pbbans.com/mbi-viewban-da442475-vb145399.html When you check your pbguid, you need to do so on a PB enabled server and not a LAN server of your own making.
-
No one needs to check anything unless the streaming requirements are met in full as outlined here; http://www.pbbans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=82423 The choices open to you are ; 1. Make an effort and meet the streaming requirements. 2. Stream elsewhere. It is really that simple.
