PB issue. Can we please make players aware by disable rating of that server like SL did while back for servers not running PB as it should or running with totally modified files?

\pb_plist
\pb_alist
\pb_kick

None of the client PB commands work on that server. I asked admin on that server and he said PB is not up to date. Even with PB not up to date pb_plist should work unless you patch the PB. I camped server for 45 mins under different names and no single PB kick was issued.

Then people complain PB doesn't do anything while admins are running fake or modified PB.

Thanks

Same feeling for me: all my team is now playing on this server, because there is no lag !
So I did try /pb_sv_writecfg, it works, and copy all their variables in server PB cfg, but lag is still present on mine.
Maybe they have found a way to have PB and no lag (or maybe you are right, it is a false PB)

Their PB variables :

Hey $mart, I have an advice for you - you can test with pb_sv_sleep 100 and pb_sv_pktSendMode 1 on your server if you want to decrease PB lag a lil'.
