There are 2 possible scenario's here m8 :) 1. EvenBalance have been running "silent detections" and when the silent detections tail off a mass violation is issued for all those detected. 2. It's a false positive. Either way it's only EvenBalance that can provide an answer, if EB staff tell us that a false positive has been raised on #130440 all bans resulting from that violation will be removed from our system.

I did not post anything about asking EvenBalance to lift the ban - what I posted was to ask 1 question - "Is this a valid violation?" Even though those violations I listed are all attributable to PunkBuster™ software, the actual ban is made by the server admin/anti cheat site. PB only issues a 2 minute kick for any of the above violations. The only bans issued by EvenBalance are global guid/hardware bans. So in theory a player can get kicked from a server for an AIMBOT violation, remove the cheat, and 2 mins later rejoin that server and play on. Thats were proactive admins come in :) , and when they group together at sites like PBBans its not just 1 server that adds the ban to the server pbbans.dat, but the ban is added to every servers pbbans.dat thus narrowing the playing field of any cheater. (the PBBans Master Ban Index is also available for public download) oops, I nearly forgot :) PsB appeal a ban link

Ignoring MD5 queries was not the original posted message. This is normally associated with network issues/bad connection which creates packet loss. The client is kicked for not responding in time. Whats your pb_sv_md5toolfreq set to ?

Cheaters actively search for servers with no PB enabled or not streaming to an anti cheat site. The first step is to get your server streaming, this can be achieved with a few rcon commands found here click me Then make a post here click me this will open up a lot more forum sections and give you access to easy to follow tutorials etc that will protect your server from the llama's that infest it at the moment. PB is the best anti cheat software available, it just needs that little help that PBBans will provide, to turn it from competent to leet. :)

Before we progress :) There are 2 types of streaming available @ PBBans. 1. The bog standard Rep. method used by every Anti Cheat site including PBBans. 2. The PBBans Hub method which is the PBBans recommended method of streaming. The PBBans Hub has a lot of advantages over the old Rep. method; Ease of use. "live" banning "live" banlist updates "live" ban removals and other enhanced features not available to Rep. streamers. Theres a lot more planned for the future too. Please take a moment to read this - http://www.pbbans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=19661 - then this http://www.pbbans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=19266 and post up what method you want to use. The PBBans Hub is the primary method of our streaming game admins by choice :)

Any ban with a number equal to, or greater than #5000 is generated by PunkBuster™ software as per this list; The only way to get a removal from PBBans MBI for any of the above violation # is to open a TroubleTicket and ask 1 question; "Is this a valid violation ?" I should imagine other Anti Cheat sites operate much the same policy, and any reputable league/ladder will adhere to the same policy too. TroubleTicket link Just as a point of interest, based from what I have come across in the past, installing third party software to "enhance" gameplay or "improve" net connection speed etc etc runs the risk of incurring a speedhack or gamehack violations across all PB™ supported games and should be avoided at all cost's.

Enter via HLSW on the streaming server pb_sv_homepath - server will respond with the exact location of the PB directory. Then do the same with the second server. Compare the results.

http://www.evenbalance.com/index.php?page=entry click your game and select an online manual

Direct from the manual: PB_SV_BindSrch [search_text] [player_name_or_slot#] {rcon limited} Sends a request to all applicable connected players asking for a report on which local player key bindings contain the specified [search_text]; to specify a player name or substring (as opposed to slot #), surround the text with double-quote marks

Are both servers using the same PB directory ?
