C4st Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 (edited) Just a quick question: Is it some how possible to check if a player is banned by his IP address? Just like the GUID search on the main page. thanks, castiii Edited October 6, 2013 by C4st Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaos1907 Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 The bans are triggered by only the guid if the md5 or pb detects a hack, not the IP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C4st Posted October 6, 2013 Author Share Posted October 6, 2013 The reason to this was simply to find out a way to detect a returned cheater. Lets say if I could pull an IP search on a player wouldn't I be able to compare GUIDS that have been used on it? Thanks anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pipes1 Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 (edited) under the tool any player who has used the same ip should show on the list under guids as linked. however you must be careful as it could be a casual like, like player a used ip x.x.x.x. player b used z.z.z.z. ip. player a switch isp and now uses z.z.z.x ip. player b switched ip and now shows using x.x.x.x ip. since both players used x.x.x.x ip those guid would show linked. however the time diference is different. pbbans tool is a little hard to understand but wonce you get the understanding down its easier Edited October 6, 2013 by pipes1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EO2 Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Like pipes said, if you search an IP (provided you have the account to do that here) in the MPi, it will show who has used that IP and if it is associated with a ban. Now the thing you have to keep in mind, is that IPs swap around quite a bit and can go to many different players. So the key is to look at any ban in question and then get the information on the ban...like the date, time, server and so on. Now take that information and look to see if the player in question actually was using the IP at the time of the ban. Just because a player has used an IP that has a ban associated with it, does not mean they have cheated, it is just a stroke of bad luck for him.
