Hi all,

So I found a ban for a player on ACI for pb violation 89381. The problem is I can't find that same violation for that GUID on either GGC or pbbans. I'm confused, doesn't ACI just stream from punkbuster? I mean it says it is a pb violation. And if so, why wouldn't it also show up on GGC and pbbans? 

Thanks for all the hard work you all do in keeping the community clean. 

The player in question triggered the violation on an ACI server then, which wasn’t running any other services such as PBBans or GGC. The violation would then only appear on those other services if the player triggered the violation again on another server that was streaming to those services. Punkbuster doesn’t store their violations since they’re just kicks and not bans. Therefore if a player triggered it on a server A running ACI, it wouldn’t stream on server B running PBBans or GGC in real time, if that makes sense. The player would need to join the other server and trigger another violation.
