[bf1942] Punkbuster (Was: How could DICE agree to this??)

[Joe]

I suggest anyone with the same findings start a ticket with Evenbalance
then. Though they get a lot of bad rep from the community at times, I've
found their support folk to actually be decent and understanding when it
comes to tracking a bug. ;)

We disabled PB last night and I must say it was the smoothest night we have
had in a while.

PB is the cuse of this mystery lag!

Well, we disabled PB on our server, and so far it's been pretty smooth,
so it seems that one of the 2 PB updates which came out in the last
month or so has messed something up. Good old PB - it's always been such
a high quality product, I'm astonished that something could possibly
have gone wrong.</Blatent sarcasm>
