nearly every server protected by renguard, i'm kicked out of. I just started playing renguard again because i got seriously bored, and since i'm on someone elses comeputer I had to reinstall it.
Nonetheless, I'm good at it, beat the game on commando god knows how many times and when i was younger i spent HOURS training on my aim skill. Now that I'm good at it, i tried to redownload renguard again and it gave me some error (which is in the process of being resolved right now) so i couldn't use it. It would install, just not run, but i could still play the game without it.
Either way, since i was good, and they figured out i wasn't using renguard, all the pre-puberty host decided since there might eb a girl in the room, that i was a threat to their reputation so I was labled a cheater?
Personally, in a way, i dont give a shit. but on the other hand the most popular servers and rooms are the renguard protected ones and I dont really enjoy kicking ass in the backwater rooms, which may i add i've been kicked from a few while being accused of cheating....
Seriously? if you ask me, i say you need to take these host and knock them down a peg or two, because this superiority issue they seem to have is really irritating. I'd like to enjoy an online game and not be criticed everytime someone feels offended, or not able to play because i'm not using some aftermarket protection crap. Dont get me wrong, the creators of "Renguard" are absolute genious, to prevent hackers and cheaters is a step westwood should have taken themselves, so congrats on kicking cheating ass... but maybe you should be a bit more careful while choosing who monitors your rooms.
Also, favortisim? I can recall in MULTIPLE cases being kicked from a room because some idiot will make a comment in regards to me killing him over and over again because hes a moron that goes out to the same area time and time again when he KNOWS theres a sniper just waiting. But I've been kicked (not banned at first) from so many rooms because he/she just happens to be in good relations with the host... how is that fair? I'm well aware that life isn't fair, but this is just insane.
I'd liked to be re-admitted to the renguard servers as soon as i figure out what the hell is going on with renguard and my computer... anytime before than? no thank you, i'm not going to risk being banned again just because i cant get an f-ing programing to work on my computer.

Server hosts spend a LOT of money running their servers. If they think you are cheating they are well within their rights to kick you. If you hosted a server and I joined and killed 10 people in a minute, you would probably be inclined to think I was cheating, and if you then checked and saw I was not running an easily available anti-cheat program, what course of action would YOU take?
Yes, not being able to run RG can be a nuicense, but coming here saying all server hosts should be publically flogged won't get you anywhere.
You would do better to visit the forums of the server in question and protest your ban. Most server owners operate a ban first talk later policy, in the opinion that anyone banned for cheating who is not cheating will come and try and resolve it on their forum.
Also, most likely you were !forcerg 'ed, meaning as soon as you have RG running you will be able to join the servers that used !forcerg on you.

Unfortunately you'll probably have to go to the forums of all the servers you were banned from as I doubt very many visit here.
This part of the forum is for people who have been banned from Renguard itself. The team has no control over how the server owners/moderators act as each server is controlled individually. The Renguard program is simply an optional attachment that any server can choose to run, or not, and all the team does is administer the program, and the network itself, not the servers that run it.
