Ex HYPER Paradise
I think same as FPS - firewalls can block PB application and don't let it start in task manager. That is very possible. I just reject to believe that my good friend and old style player who proved skill many years ago need to start NOW with some stupid kidy cheats. And, what is most funny is that he entered with those "cheats" where Skull was playing on GNT NC war. Sound really crazy. He is not some newbie to don't hide cheats before enter on server protected by PB. I never tryed any cheats and I don't know how they can be puted in (you all can say I am noob because of this - but at fact I am proud on me for this). Truth is, too, that I don't have knowledge for PB and his gamehack codes. But I know that on Windows 7 my fiance has problem with blocking PB and he suspected on firewall, too. And (p.s.) he don't even play q3, so don't even try to say "he is cheater, too"...
bla bla
In this case he would be kicked with the message "loosing key packets". The other problem with windows 7 u get kicked with the message "Unknown Windows API Function".
And, does he have win7? no.
Look this is "facts" above "wildcatting".
checkin for cheatin ppl, is just a SERVICE!
and i think, we need a 2nd and impartial person,
that validates those results!!!
well, if u mean a pb-hack is a pk3 loaded like zzz-*
the reason of the pk3 being present is cl_allowDownload 1 + going to a cheater's server.
god, i am out.
It is really not like that i did not try it, it is more like you guys running blind with no idea about what you r talking.
hard to not start an insult now...
hf.
I think first time in my life i have to agree with mow. You guys are just blind and/or stupid. If you dont know that "PB HACK" message means at least google it...
one thing (since i lack time tonight) - i hate noobs because they cause me a lot of extra time reading forums explaining all shit. thats why i dont care if anybody understands what i say or not.
pbhack is not something u accidentally get from joining a server. it is not a md5 or zzz skin. it is something downloaded accompanying a cheat - as mow said. for any non-believers, i suggest u visit punksbusted.com and evenbalance.com for more infomation.

I think you're wrong, Paradise is a good, polite guy and Skull put those files on his PC to make it look like he's a cheater.
I am sure that he even went to Romania to do this.
