OMG, SAD…

I invited my friend to my house…and we were just playing Call Of Duty 4…He was telling me about this cool aimbot, and i was like dude, no i dont want any aimbot, ill be banned! Then we were kinda hungry, so i just went to Mcdonalds to buy 2 burgers for us, and he stayed and played Call Of Duty 4…As soon as i came back home with the 2 burgers, he had tried out the aimbot and he had this screen open saying, you have been banned from this server by the admin…And banned by punkbuster…He said that he would buy me a new copy…
Im just wondering if punkbuster bans people by their ip address or cdkey?
if its ip address then there is no point for him to buy me a new copy of CoD4…
so…my question is…Will i still be banned if my friend buys me a new cdkey for CoD4?
Answer #1
CD key. Too many dynamic IPs in the world to make IP banning possible. Don’t forget to punch your friend a few times for fun after he gets the new copy.
Answer #2
try installing the game on other computer and you will have the answer: if it still says that your banned then its cd-key and if it doesnt than its IP
Answer #3

Omg, what an *a s s*.
Too bad for you m8.
Answer #5
I think punkbuster bans your hardware? In bf2, pb doesn’t only ban your cdkey, but also the serial of the harddrive it was installed on. Buy a new one, or search for some guides, there are some :/
Answer #6
Something called a PB GUID Ban.
You might be able to try appealing it.. but to be honest i have no idea what the outcome will be
Omg, what an *a s s*.
