may i also expand bulls comment to explain y we do not us pbbans.
the reason we don't is because we have no proof that player has cheated, punkbuster picks certain programs such as ventrilo, and teamspeak overlay programs as cheats and kick ect. also it detects steams ingame overlay and friend notification as a hack

I am sorry to hear this as a reply. This player came in and even asked if you guys were streaming probably wondering if he was going to get kicked. He then proceeded to have some really good scores, but keeping them to the point of believable. I looked up a few different forums looking to see if BC2 had these problems and from what I could find nobody had reported anything. These are still your severs, you pay for them, monitor them, and spend countless hours keeping them up and running.
This Gentleman was not the first hacker I have went on TS to report and of course got the same reply.
So in saying all this I thank you guys for your time, but I think I will continue my time on servers where the playing field is of the same level and where hackers are not only determined by a score.

We do not use PBbans because it lags the server slightly. We have players from Poland to Australia and everything in between. Adding PBbans noticeably increased the ping for these players.
We do our best to keep the servers running light to give great performance and offer as close to 24/7 admins as we can. With out being able to see the chat on our servers we some times miss people saying things in the server due to being dead. We do our best to control the server and keep it fun for all players.

PS good luck with your servers.
