    Hi guys
    Today i found a way to avoid getting kicked by pb when playing cod4 ( i think this way also can apply for other pb games like battlefield 2...) (only for Restriction: multipled direct3d loaded )
    First, we need to know exactly how long we can stay in the game before being kicked out by pb ( my case is 2min 15s )
    Now, the trick is we have to stay in the same game until it ended exactly 2 or 3 second before the time we were kicked by pb
    For example: my playable time is 2min 15s , i play team death-match (waiting time before ending this map is 30min) --> i have to join the game when time left is around 1min 40s ~ 1min 45s and stay until the game ended.
    so before u getting kicked, the game has ended, and load the new map.
    --> in the next game, u can play normally without being kicked by pb :cool: :
    i know it's hard , but when u getting used how to control the time correctly, it would be easy :D
    Have fun !!!!!

    2' 15"

    so 2 feet and 15 inches is your playable time

    This "guide" didnt even tell you what to do. Does not make any sense to me.

    I got kickt by PB a few times aswell. Not sure why since I installed Punkbuster so everything shoul be fine. Also, getting kickt only happened to me when I was still low ranked (Just formated my pc, played cod4 and got kickt again: Partizan PunkBuster kickt Partizan).
    Maybe its because of a few professional headshots, but I think its just random...no?
