Hope you guys can work things out with them.  ACI is a top notch crew.

They have a standing invitation to collaborate with us and have access to our tools, but haven’t been taken up on yet. We’re all on the same team, no sense in working against each other. 

So top notch they reported someone here for cheating without any proof, then refused to share said proof. Super top notch.

Who was it?  I've been working with ACI since the early 2000s and they've always shown the utmost integrity.

@Sovereign_Skies have you applied to be an admin there and get access to their private stuff?  I bet that would let you do the verification you need.  There's lots of nice private goodies over there that you get once accepted as a member.

The have blocked access to all of our accounts. My access was blocked about a week or 2 after BF4DB relaunched and well before I was a moderator here. I don't know why, but my guess is that I had an account with this service or that I am in a platoon with MXT who was a mod here at the time (and still is). Most of our staff cannot even look up a player on ACI to confirm if ACI has issued a ban for said player. Someone making a brand new account could get more info than we can. I've heard that the old BF4DB staff had some issues with ACI but none of that staff is with this service.

We've seen people with ACI access get that access revoked simply for sharing ban info with us. While we appreciate the communities tenacity in finding cheaters we do not want them to lose access to a resource like ACI.

I never posted in the forums except one time to try and get streaming admin access when we streamed to their service on a few servers. Never sent any DM's and never spoke out against ACI before this happened. I still don't know why it happened

Same thing happened to me about a month ago.Soldier said i was sharing info from ACI. I never have never shared anything from ACI and when I asked him about it he never got back to me, so the only thing i can see is that they saw my membership here and terminated my use  of the history tool. Seems a shame that 1 anti-cheat site is at odds with another AC site and members pay the price. As mentioned above we are all fighting the same battle ,the cheaters.

Now I'm confused.  I'd been seeing your name over there for years :-/  This is surely a shame whatever the problem is.

They kicked Torsten out of ACI because he was supposedly sharing history tool data with us as BF4DB which is utterly false.  Apart from the fact that, even if he actually did offer us to share data with us, we would've declined it anyway because we are aware of the actions ACI is taking against their own members for supporting us as a third party anti-cheat, we have a pretty huge database covering several millions of unique players including their guids, ips etc. We are literally one of the last ones who would need data support from others.

I was kicked from ACI  and receive threat from soldier and he told me that he would ban anyone sharing ACI information with me.

I would say good riddance.

Also, it takes a month waiting to use their tools anyways. Nothing lost honestly.

We reached out to ACI back when this new site was being developed and from the get-go they were unwilling to even speak to us. We know there was some bad blood between the old BF4DB and ACI, but since we are a completely different site we thought we could have an open dialogue about our common mission: anti-cheat. 

I’ve used ACI for many years and their tools are excellent (let’s be clear I’ve not used them since I took my servers down a few years ago). I’d hoped that we’d be able to work together to an extent, however we have been met with hostility. All of our staffs’ accounts have been banned, and even some of the members of our Discord server have been terminated for allegedly sharing their player history tool data (which is against their TOS). Apparently they’ve terminated a few of their own staff for the same reason. 

We have never asked people for ACI data, and we’ve always removed it if posted on our site.

We have developed our own proprietary tools and every day we become less reliant on other third party anti-cheat sites for their player data since our database is growing faster than ever. 

I am more than happy to give a representative from every other major anti-cheat site access to our tools in the name of unity. And yes, that even means ACI.
