QWERTYAZI Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 Hi, I try to play BF2 like I used to before (didn't change any setting). So I created a new account since I forgot the details of the previous one. I get a "pubnkbuster permanent ban issued" message. Any idea why? (I am not familiar with the whole punkbuster idea...) Thanks a lot in advance PS : it says something like GUID 7c7b49f8 and my id is Aziellakos Quote

AcE Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 The GUID 8ea31e4851efc77ca2e6fc4c7c7b49f8 is not banned here or on any other AC site that I can see, nor is it globally banned by PB. As Twiebie said, cd-key you are using is a leaked one, shared by 100's of people around the world and the likelyhood of it being banned sooner or later is very high considering how many people have used it. Go to a trusted game retailer and buy a new game dvd, not 2nd hand (used) and make sure it's sealed in plastic. Quote
