PB and Bad player names

[BadassJoeDK]

Some where on this fine forum I found a post about preventing people with "bad" names entering a server. I think that it was done by adding a pb cfg to a pb folder somewhere. How is this done and even though my English is pretty good, I dont know all swear words or bad names out there. So if someone has a list I would appreciate it.

Wrong forum; go here:

In the meantime, the PunkBuster cvar that does this is pb_sv_badname. It's formated as follows:

pb_sv_badname [TIME] [BAD WORD]

Example:

pb_sv_badname 60 "jerk"

In the above, someone with "jerk" in their name would have 60 seconds to remove it or be kicked from the server.

More info about PunkBuster can be found in the above forum, as well as on EvenBalance's site:

Put these lines in your pbsv.cfg file. I got it from someone on the punkbuster forums:

//Player Name settings
pb_sv_badnameempty //empties list so BadNames dont pile up, resets list.

pb_sv_badname 60 noname //60 seconds to remove this word from your name
pb_sv_badname 300 unknown //300 seconds to change unknown soldier name
pb_sv_badname 60 www.
pb_sv_badname 60 http://
pb_sv_badname 60 .com
pb_sv_badname 60 nazi


As you can see you can put many more names or part of a name in it.

You can find your pbsv.cfg in this folder:

X:/Call of Duty UO/pb/

If you dont have one, create one with notepad and put the above lines in it and rename it to pbsv.cfg

If you want to change more punkbuster settings, I use this pbsv.cfg from BosBrian and changed it a bit to my leisure.

This works for me, but some cvars are unknown to me, so it might not work for you, but on this website (click here) (http://www.iwnation.com/Forums/index.php?showtopic=6985) you might find more answers, but it requires some skills to tweak it at your own leisure.

Good luck!

Thanks a lot.

[Rammer_DD]

lol be careful it dont kick you

[OldDog]

If you want, I have a pretty extensive pb "bad names" list that I grabbed (via Major Woody) from BlackBart (developer of CI for MOH). PM me, and I'll send it to you. It's quite large, about 330+, so posting it here would be too much.

-OldDog

[Racquel]

Haha, I agree, you mean if he uses "Ass" as a badname it will kick him! :P

[OldDog]

Ha! Just got that...I actually had a problem like that with someone's name...I made "ass" a bad name and some guy (German, I think) with a name that CONTAINED "ass" kept getting kicked...it was his real name, though... :oops:

[BadassJoeDK]

Yeah kicking oneself would be bad. There was some at IWnation that had done that to himself. Ofcause everybody laughed - including himself. Hmm I dont think tha t my nick is that bad. As far as I understand the badass part, it also means something that cool.
