But my friend is still playing it. And in my local BF4 forum, some other players don’t have boosting, still get ban. ---

Yes i understand that.But i did an alias check and it says no user found.That was with MBI and MPI search. I also checked BF4DB and he was marked clean and nothing except high headshot counts on a few weapons on 24/7 fairplay. ---

This does not appear to be a punkbuster ban, unless there is a ban I don’t see, so I doubt evenbalance can do anything about it.

Has anyone made any progress in finding programs that may have triggered the 88001 ban yet? I’ve submitted the two programs I mentioned a few posts back (for configuring a PS3 controller on PC, but not used in BF4), but it may take a little time to hear back. Happily playing on a new account, but much rather have my original account back, so I still want to collect as much feedback as I can from people in a similar spot as myself.
