Does PunkBuster ban your IP, HWID, or anything like that?
Say the BF3 cheat gets detected, could I just get another account?

Ok. Because I was planning on getting a second account, then hacking on that one. I just want to make sure that my main account doesn't suffer the consequences if my secondary gets banned.

U will be banned on one account only. Make sure that u dont have other games on that account wich is punkBuster protected.

hi MOOcow102,
punkbuster bans your GUID, which is a combination of your origin account data and the game key from the product you add to the account. best if you go for each game one single account.

have a nice day!

Ok. I just wanted to make sure that my computer didn't get banned from PunkBuster servers.
