The link will work once you get streaming. Your account currently looks like this; *************************************************************** Team: unfallenangels (UFA|) Account ID: 4024 Streaming Status: Not Streaming (0 / 1) ***************************************************************

Streaming to a reputable anti cheat site is always the better option. Server is not streaming to PBBans Server Info Server IP 81.92.196.72:28960 Game Call of Duty 4 Tag THC* Team account was created with the above server address and has never been logged into by the admin who applied for the account :blink:

PBBans has tightened up security recently due to events outside of our control. There are now protocols in place for checking out a new team account applicant. The very first thing thats checked is wether the server is run from someones house / rented from a GSP / co-located at a dedicated server host etc etc. When I first checked out your initial team account application, I could see straight away that your application had fallen at the first hurdle, so to speak. Just to double check, I asked for a direct link to your GSP, which was when you confirmed that your server was indeed run from your home. How many different ways can we say, home computer, home server, personal computers etc. :P As far as I am aware, there are only 2 anti cheat sites with a strict check on all applicants who apply for streaming and unfortunately they are the premiere 2 (PBBans & PsB) but you are quite welcome to try your luck streaming to another anti cheat site.

Nothing going on, except for lots of cheaters getting caught, we are doing quite well, thank you very much :) Do not confuse a privately run anti cheat site http://www.pbbans.com with http://www.evenbalance.com who are the makers of PB software. PBBans does not ban anyone without streamed evidence, its that simple.

Duplicate forum accounts are deleted or banned as a matter of course. Team account applications are dealt with as and when we receive an application. Your forum account is obviously working because you can post, I do not see a team account application from you. Have you made a team account application ? http://www.pbbans.com/account_application.php

Glad to be of service Bro :) Lets hope your financial situation improves soon eh.

ask the game dev's on their forums, or mail them. Topic gone full circle, time for closure.

nothing has changed, as a quick fix, just re-enter the streaming commands, one line at a time via rcon for each server; pb_sv_writecfg pbucon.use pb_sv_restart ... wait 20 seconds pb_sv_task 0 7200 pb_sv_ver pb_sv_usessionlimit 8 pb_sv_autoupdban 1 pb_sv_uconadd 1 64.27.21.46 pbbanshub pbbanshub pb_sv_writecfg

You only see things from a players standpoint, so any argument on PB is flawed. PB is still the best anti cheat software by far (try joining a server with no PB and make a comparison) PBBans uses the tools provided by EvenBalance, to enhance PB and turn it from proficient to leet. PBBans can also prevent previously convicted cheaters from joining a server. The one thing we can not do is to force every server to use our services, so you will probably experience cheaters on non streaming servers (including your own clan server) Cheaters actively search for servers that do not stream to an anti cheat site or have PB disabled. If you join a server and come across cheaters within it, the best thing you can do is to inform the server admin about the existence of PBBans and hopefully the admin will be proactive enough to do something.

A punkbuster troubleticket is not just for players who have incurred cheat violations. They will also troubleshoot issues such as this. It's always a good idea to list all processes that were running at the time the violation was raised (antivirus / chat programmes etc etc ) The key word with any troubleticket query is patience, EB get a hell of a lot of queries and response time is dependent on how busy they are. Normal response time is 48 - 72 hours. http://www.evenbalance.com/troubleticket/

Do you stream a server or have any type of access to a server ?

Not all MD5 violation kicks are bannable. Modded or unmodded has no effect what so ever on PBBans effictiveness. :)

The information that I see related to the above pbguid (aliases and IP) is soley related to you. The above pbguid is not on PBBans MPI or PsB MBL. You say you are getting PB banned from your server, what is the exact kick message you receive ? From were I am sitting at the moment, this looks like a local ban issue.

If you have a task running that sends regular heartbeats to the Hub pb_sv_task 0 7200 pb_sv_ver or something similar, then thats all that is required to keep servers that are empty for long periods streaming. Other admins have had this issue before and the most common root cause is a server or PB restart that execs a default cfg that does not contain the neccessary streaming commands. That would be my first thing to check ........... I'm sure others have had different reasons for the sudden none streaming issue and will post them up here (hopefully :) ) If we get a few responses with various reasons/fixes, I will collate them all and pin as a new topic.

Tomorrow is Friday Sept, 26th Bro :P Well ............... last time I looked it was.

Take a peek, at what your missing out on this season :) League Control Panel brochure

an ode to the pretenders I've seen them come and I've seen them go Supposedly better than PB, more in the know Problem was they never made a bust Now they lay in some archive gathering dust There will probaly be more Who will take to the floor Who will say we are now the best. It's a safe bet, when released on the net, they will join all the rest When all said and done There can be only one Consistent, honest and true The only problem that raises its head is convincing the doubters ... you. opinion PBBans offers gamers the information and tools, provided by PunkBuster

Familiar tale and not unexpected tbh. Crytek + EA bring to mind an old saying. 2 wrongs do not make a right

There is no one on that particular account now.

It's always best practise to run pbsetup.exe prior to any gaming session ... takes a minute to run and drastically reduces this type of kick and many others.

Hmmm, lets see. Crytek ; promised to fix the pbucon issue with a patch (never delivered) promised to release linux server binaries (never delivered) Just released a statement out of the blue saying they were not releasing any more patches for Crysis, leaving thier Crysis community high and dry. EA; Responsible for the Betafield series of games (enough said) Hardly confidence inspiring is it :P

It's always preferable to get an answer to something PB related from a reputable anti cheat site Bro. This recent forum topic will explain things in detail; http://www.pbbans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=64793
