Somehow I'm always first at this, but I don't think this is the right place to post this.

You have to go to Punkbuster if you want to get unbanned. Also this ban affects your BF2 serial key. This means on every BF2 server (mod or vanilla) which has punkbuster enable you are banned.
The PR DEVs can't do anything about this. Search for MBI or Master Ban Index.
If you griefed/hacked once you remeber it. No need to cover it under the "I do not remember"-term.

you can buy bf2 for like 5-10 bucks on amazon and other online stores. Not that much of an investment.

Nobody really cares if you download a BF2 iso - the fact is you have used a shared key. If you owned the game you should have used your own serial....
Here's a tip for free.
When you do buy the game use a different gaming name which might limit the exposure to being forever linked to the 557 other aliases who have used that key... It's not a good look when you go to join a clan or are appealing a ban on a server - some admins wouldn't bother taking the time to ensure that there was no link between your alias and a hacker.. Depending on why you were banned - it's sometime not worth the effort.....

Right, its the serial key that matters, so install it with your own key, if you even own a legitimate copy.Kavaloosh wrote:welp, its a pirated copy, i own a copy of the game, but its all scratched

I'm not sure but you could go "buy" a copy for less than 10 bucks american and install it with a new name and serial number.
I mean for 10 bucks if you wanted to play that bad. I will advise you though, hacking, griefing again and you'll end up in the same boat.
if you were banned by PB, it was not for griefing, that's certain!

Actually, he don't need to buy an original copy, he can use the pirated copy and an original serial that he can buy in the internet.
So you can buy an original copy and install, or buy an original serial to use in your BF2.

It doesn't matter if you have downloaded the game illegally, what matters is you need the correct serial key for it that isn't a pirated key. use the original key to install BF2 again on your PC, make a new account, enjoy games.

Pirated copy? Oh man, you should buy a CDK via Steam or EADM(or origin?)instead of using a shared key.
The only way you can join in EU and US is buy such a key...(No more than 5 bucks?)
