Hi people,

I have no idea why I can't connect to the: ETc|Clan,XPSave,ETPubII 8SEC SPAWN server.

In the console I get: server disconnected for unknown reasonPunkBuster Client: Not Connected.
I have installed PunkBuster and it is enabled. I also tired to download new ET, but I get same problem...

Can someone help please?

Hi Cisek,

I saw you tried to connect several times yesterday but it was written you were banned 'by an admin' permanently. I looked into our ban list but I couldn't find you. I guess Jay could figure it out and tell you what happens.
Also, I think you have a 2.55 version of the game as you only see 'server disconnected' in the console. Try getting a 2.60b version, so you'll see more infos about disconnections/kicks/bans/problems in your console.

Have a nice day.

EDIT : I forgot... Could you also add when was the last time you were able to connect on the server ? Thank you.

Hi PI0p,
Thanks for you reply. If I remember correctly I was able to connect last Monday?
I’m surprised if I got a permanent ban :O really not sure what for... I hope we can sort this out?

Yes, you are correct I was using an old version of ET, but last night I downloaded the 2.60 version and still couldn’t connect to the server, and no reason was displayed.

That is strange, have you tried running as admin or something?
Hope we can solve the problem eventually, good luck mate.

No problem.

I've just thought about something else : we often ban cheaters from our server, so, if someone borrowed your computer and cheated with it, both him and you would be banned. Another thing could be that a cheater used your ip or has the same ET/Nitmod key as yours, so you got banned when he got banned.
OR you messed up with a leader who then has good reasons to ban you :D

Just wait for a reply from Darkness or Jay and we'll see. Until then, be sure we'll keep you informed as soon as we get news.

just to confirm, you was seen connecting 10 hours ago , are you using Protocol: ET 2.60b / ET 2.55 ?

Is your firewall accepting your ET exec

Do you run as Admin your ET ( you should)

Antivirus exceptions?

there is no ban at server under your guid. But you had same mac adress from a guy we banned 3 years ago for cheating. Your unbanned. Have fun.

Hi Jay,

Thanks for the explanation. I’m not sure how could this happen, how I could be so lucky to have someone’s MAC address?
But anyways, I’m back to the ET world now, cheers!
