i found this at the |CAFN| forums.

it was originally posted by Warrior From =AcE=. im quoting his original post.

Quote
BTW, I contacted all my members and instructed them on how to protect themselves from and misguided individuals that may try to do harm to them. I suggest that everyone do the same... I agree that games can be ruied by some bad peeps and we must do everything we can to protect ourselves.

This is a partial letter written to AcE members:

There is a way to protect yourself from this crap. Below are listed the commands that you must place into the SOF2 console. What they do is every time a pb server takes a screenshot of you, rather it be automatic or manual, it will place that identical screenshot into your pb folder. With this evidence you can prove that you did not cheat. You must do this in order to protect yourself and AcE from any jerks that may try to harm you or the AcE name.

Put these commands into you SOF2 console immediately after reading this:

pb_ssoptions 960 720 100 100 1

pb_sslog 1

pb_sssave 1

pb_writecfg

I do not want any confusion nor would I want anyone that has done no harm to be accused. Do this for your own good... for your own protection.



ok after talking to frick the only commands you have to put in are..

Quote
pb_sssave 1
pb_writecfg


all the other commands are already in place and will work fine.

so if you bothered to read that what it does is put an exact duplicate of the PBSS that was taken of you into your PB/screenshot folder. by exact i mean exact, it contains all the information PBSS's do, guid, ip and all that jazz, exact duplicate!! If anyone tried to edit a  picture of you have an  original un-edited image to hopefully clear yourself.

Very good information and i give mad props to AcE for posting this and making more of the community aware and helping us to protect ourselves. as with AcE i recommend all of you use these settings.

its a pitty it has to come to this, i think it is outrageous that we have to protect ourselves from immature childish behaviour...sorry i cant spell that well

although i am a child and i run a server (when this comp is not at school)

we even have to take screenshots in the 1st place to see if they are cheating...now thats just sad...

common, if your not good at ta game y resort to cheating...y not just get better, its not really worth the risk to be honest well i am off home now :p

EDIT: well by the way not all children are childish...i hope you understand that, i am getting peeved when peeps say everything is children, i agree that there are many out there and most of the behaviour is children
