No problem Bulgy :) and thanks for your input. Just for info; I have never seen a #50104 violation declared anything else other than valid. A troubleticket was opened by the player and the response was the standard one we see in cases like this; That means that EvenBalance have checked this out and the violation raised is valid. The only thing that concerns us is the pbguid that raised a bannable violation, and as it has been declared a valid violation by EB then I'm afraid it will remain on the MBI. That would give me cause for concern Bro. Your cd key has undoubtedly been used by someone other than yourself. If your so sure that a 3rd party programme did not steal your cd key did you voluntarily pass it to a "friend". If you intend using a "friends" key that could end up "out in the wild" as well.

PBBans like every other anti cheat site bans by pbguid only, you have had an appeal denied, so I do not see the point of posting in a general discussion area but seeing as you have, I will post a reply here too. http://www.pbbans.com/mbi-viewban-a7a44334-vb86315.html Your pbguid has raised an aimbot violation. Your pbguid is globally banned by EvenBalance themselves. Your pbguid has been used in Canada and the U.S.A. Your pbguid will remain on the MBI because its a valid violation, confirmed by EvenBalance. Solution: By a new game. Advice: Before you install your new game please be advised, there are a lot of little programmes out there that once installed will immediately install a back door trojan onto your system and transmit your cd key to another location. We have come across them in - instant lvl 55 prog / fps tweakers / back up your cod4 prog etc etc. So either format your pc or make entirely sure you have no malaware installed, otherwise you will end up with another banned cd key.

I know its different from his original application Bro, but I will still need the full address of the new server so I can check it out before re-opening the original denied application. :mellow::rolleyes:

Well ... don't keep us in suspense Bro ... post up the new server address in full and we will take it froom there. :)

Your team account currently looks like this; *************************************************************** Team: League of Gentlemen fun server (-=LoG=-) Account ID: 4135 Streaming Status: Not Streaming (0 / 0) *************************************************************** --------------------------------------------------------------- Server List --------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------- User List --------------------------------------------------------------- 2WQQDY (123261) Just add a server via your account manager after you have sent these commands, one line at a time via rcon; pb_sv_writecfg pbucon.use pb_sv_restart ... wait 20 seconds pb_sv_task 0 7200 pb_sv_ver pb_sv_usessionlimit 3 pb_sv_autoupdban 1 pb_sv_uconadd 1 64.27.21.46 pbbanshub pbbanshub pb_sv_writecfg It really is that easy :P dont believe me ? .. then try it out.

http://www.pbbans.com/forums/index.php?sho...0&hl=124377 Thats the application response, PBBans does not allow home/LAN servers to stream.

If that had any ring of truth to it, most AC staff would have raised a PB hack violation by now :)

Whats the exact wording of the MD5 mismatch your receiving ?

I can only speak on behalf of PBBans. We have a set of protocols that have to be met in each instance before a team account is set up. We recently added some scripts that automatically tell us if any of those protocols are not met. The very first protocol is what you fail on. PBBans do not allow home/LAN servers to stream. It's that simple Your team account is left open so that if you decide to rent a dedicated server from a GSP you will be able to add it to your team account with no problem. If any of the above is not to your liking you are of course welcome to try/continue streaming elsewhere.

update Sorted, you should have received a forum PM with all the relevant account details. :)

Whats your new server address Bro .. I can sort this in a jiffy :)

Only admins who stream their server(s) to PBBans.com have full access to the MPI and its search results. Why not join us and take a look see :) http://www.pbbans.com/info-center-starterguide.html http://www.pbbans.com/info-center-hubguide.html

Noob hosters eh :rolleyes: 10 out of 10 for persistence Timmyyy, I'm glad this issue got resolved and I'm sure you wont regret choosing PBBans.com as your choice of streaming partner. Welcome aboard m8

Lat streamed; August 25, 2008 at 10:10:13 am COD4 servers are easier to initiate streaming on than most, there are various methods you can employ, all outlined here; http://www.pbbans.com/info-center-hubguide.html Personally I would go with this method; http://www.pbbans.com/info-center-hubguide.html#rcon *************************************************************** Team: unfallenangels (UFA|) Account ID: 4024 Streaming Status: Not Streaming (0 / 1) *************************************************************** --------------------------------------------------------------- Server List --------------------------------------------------------------- COD4 - 193.47.83.179:28936 --------------------------------------------------------------- User List --------------------------------------------------------------- drakeonfire (122861)

As already stated; It isn't a streaming problem......that error is with EvenBalance's key authorization servers.

On a PB enabled server, the command pb_sv_homepath when executed via rcon, will tell you exactly were your PB directory is located etc etc, and more importantly, exactly were all your PB cfg's / files etc should be placed.

Rainbow Six Vegas 2 - servers streaming - 0 We will obviously concentrate our efforts to support admins that stream their servers to us. :)

Simple solution is to remove the streaming advertisement and see how many of those absentee "really good" players come back and raise no violations :P Streaming a full 64 players server takes up about 4kb of bandwidth, so actual streaming is never a problem. The one thing you have to make sure of is that the server is running the correct MD5 scans; http://www.pbbans.com/info-center-cvarmd5guide.html Cheaters actively search out servers that have pb disabled or do not stream to a reputable anti cheat site, so rest assured, your doing the right thing Bro :)

The official TWL configs contain; ;// PsB/PBBans/AON Streaming Info pb_sv_USessionLimit 12 pb_sv_uconadd 1 64.27.21.46 pbbanshub pbbanshub pb_sv_uconadd 0 71.177.52.13 AONLIVE LIVEBETA ;//CoD4 PB Repository Commands pb_sv_logaddr rep.punksbusted.com // Repository IP Address pb_sv_logport 24425 // Repository Port pb_sv_loguser XXXX // Enter your PsB ClanID (e.g. 0123) pb_sv_task 0 7200 pb_sv_ver pb_sv_task 0 86400 pb_sv_update This effectively streams your server to PBBans / PsB / AON Source; TWL post

You left out an important phrase in your statement Bro :) As its you running the clan etc it's your opinion that counts here. Using IP's to link guid's is dubious at best, using aliases to link guid's is a lot more than dubious, in my opinion its downright irresponsible, when you think about how easy it is to change your ingame alias. It seems that PBBans is being inadvertently dragged into an internal clan dispute here, so this topic will now be locked. Please take it to the clan forum / forum pm or anything similar.

All sorted. All you need to do now is to get it streaming in the usual manner.

Use the server checker on the main website ; PBBans.com or the MSI link here; MSI link The main cause of this type of thing, is that the server address was used by another clan who have not removed it from their team account, as soon as you activated the server it shows as streaming to them and not you, its quite an easy fix if a fix is required..
