Welcome

Welcome to PBBans, the PunkBuster multi-stream and live banning pioneers. We offer server admins the ability to stream to multiple anti-cheat sites by using the revolutionary PBBans Hub, which features live banning, live banlist updates, live ban removals and much more.

Setting up your server(s) to stream to PBBans is extremely easy and usually only takes 15 minutes or less from the time you apply until your server is streaming! We highly encourage you to start streaming today as the more servers that stream, the harder it will be for cheaters to find servers they can join. To get started streaming to PBBans simply follow our Beginners Guide. We also offer some other additional guides in our Information Center. Let us know if you can't find what you are looking for as we at PBBans are always looking for ways to improve our services.

PBBans also partners up with competitive leagues to fulfill their anti-cheat needs. For these, PBBans has developed a whole set of dedicated tools, enabling league administrators to unify the server configurations for their players, keep their own league-specific banlist up to date and more, with the least invasive set up for contesting clans. If your league is interested in a partnership with PBBans, contact one of our Staff and we will be glad to assist you.

If you need assistance in streaming or just want to chat with us, join our IRC channel (irc.quakenet.org #pbbans or irc.us.gamesurge.net #pbbans) Click Here or post your questions/concerns in our forums.

For more information on what we do read the About Us page.

News

RodeoBob has passed away

Today, RodeoBob one of the co-founders of PBBans lost his battle with cancer after 4 years. Robert served his country in the United States Air Force for 23 years as an information manager and continued serving as a Government Financial Analyst for 13 years.

 

In his spare time he enjoyed playing video games and from that found a desire to do something about cheaters in video games that use Punk Buster. He co-foundered PBBans as part of that goal.

 

Bob hasn't been involved as much in the last 5 years but I'm sure many of our long time members know of him and likely delt with him directly at some point.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

holidays_2015.png

As 2023 comes to an end, we wish to extend our best wishes to our community members this holiday season.

This year marked our 20th anniversary of fighting cheaters. Hard to believe it's been 20 years and so much as changed from anti-cheat software to the games themselves.

To our donors, streaming admins and other supporters, we wish to thank you for all your support to keep PBBans alive throughout this past year. A big thank you to RedKilla, CU – DizzyKipper and }TG{TommyGun for going above and beyond to help keep our community online this year. We hope others will consider donating in 2024 if they are in a position to do so.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from all of us at PBBans.

Ban Appeals For Evenbalance Violations

We are currently forwarding the open appeals to Evenbalance for them to check. There has been an accumulation of appeals since Evenbalance ceased its trouble-ticket support for unknown reasons a considerable time ago.

 

If you have a ban appeal

We can only forward the appeal once, and if Evenbalance reports a valid ban, there is nothing further we can do to help. Your appeal will be denied, and it's up to you where you go from there. At this time, there is no front end support from Evenbalance due to the aforementioned ceasing of Evenbalance answering trouble-tickets.

 

Please note: Global bans are issued and maintained by Evenbalance themselves. We have no control over global bans. Some of you may also have global bans attached to the violation.

 

If you have a Punkbuster ban and are considering appealing

We will still need you to open an Evenbalance trouble-ticket even though it won't get answered. This is because the ban appeal system still requires you to submit one. All you have to do is paste the ban information in the ticket so we can corroborate the appeal with the violation and GUID.

 

Completion of existing ban appeals

This is likely to be finished after several weeks. A reply will be posted upon completion.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2021

holidays_2015.png

 

It’s the end of another year and hopefully 2021 has been better than 2020 for our community members. There is not much to post about this year again unfortunately as more games have moved onto other anti-cheat solutions.

To our donors, streaming admins and other supporters, we wish to thank you for all your support to keep PBBans alive. It’s getting increasingly harder with the continued decline of game servers that use Punk Buster and with new games being released.

A big thank you to CU – DizzyKipper again this year for going above and beyond every month to keep our community online. We hope others will consider donating in the new year if they are in a position to do so.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from all of us at PBBans.
