Streaming Server Enforcement - Effective Immediately

Historical capture recovered from the Wayback Machine · captured 2012-05-11 · 9 posts
All,

Effective Immediately if you post a server into match comms to be used for competition play that is NOT streaming to PB Bans you will be suspended from competition. The captain that posts the server information is responsible for knowing if their server is streaming or not.

Streaming to PB Bans has been mandatory since day 1 of BF3 competition, this is not something new. In an effort to deter cheating and keep a clean gaming environment we will be enforcing suspensions to team captains that disregard the rules at TeamWarfare.

Directions on server streaming can be found here: How To: Streaming your BF3 Server to PBBans

TWL Offers Streaming Servers, information can be found here on requesting to borrow one: TWL Official BF3 Servers

our server has been streaming,
but can some one tell me what the "TWL Flag" is for?
i checked it, but what is it's purpose?

if this is also required, then shouldn't it be mentioned somewhere in here?

This is EXTREMELY confusing for me. I used their automatic streaming tool which seemed to work fine. But do I actually need to have an account? I'm sure this question has been asked already but I couldn't find a clear answer. The requirements they have to get an approved account (website, active forums, wtf???). My team does not need and does not want to create a website or forums because we will NEVER use it.

This is from the consolidated stickies. At one time pbbans had said that if you put all your team on your gamersportal roster and put some stuff in the little team forum it would count. Talk to SFR-Agent, AC admin for help...
Who is SFR-Agent?
An_agent

He is an AC admin here at twl. Talk to any of the AC staff.
Just curious, are matches to be postponed until PBBans gets the hub back up, or do we play them anyway?

As long as the server posted in comms WAS streaming (if PBBans is still down) then it can be used.

If you look up a server on PBBans that is a valid streaming server, it still shows it as such, just not streaming.

PBBans is back online. Posting a server that is not streaming will get you suspended.
