1. Too many different rule-sets (within EU).
2. Always trouble with installing pro.
3. Pro came all too late with the correct limitations in compatition matches.
I think pro is dead, now it's just for fun. Btw saw a set of rules for a league, Im not sure if this are the exact words, but it's very close:
"You may not gather evidence in matches for cheating"
I can't wait for an update on punkbuster, I think lots of bans will come if punkbuster did work correctly, and we knew what cvars to ask for.

Rule set are FUBARand more or less controlled by the modder it self (hannes) and that is off course wrong.
To the extend they are not controlled by cvars.
The install of the mod can be problems sometimes yes, and the ETQWPro site isn't exactly the place to find or seek help, tbh the modder itself are a bit ignorant, plus the fact he surround him self with wannabes who think THEY knew how to do all this. (kids)
PRO did came late, but I don't care, we see some of the teams last year is gone, but new teams are taking their place actually, and we play matches for fun and will continue doing so until a new team based game arrives (Wolfenstein anyone?)
Well, to bad you cant get a team going, the game is kick ass, to bad all the wrong things happened with this game.
Open beta and demo on Valley, spam ftw and ppl gave up.
Bad hitreg at the start did not help either hehe
We have a pretty solid 4on4 team, but are actually trying to get 6on6 team going this year, in 6on6 we have to start at bottom again, since we haven't played that for over 7 months and only 3 of the original members are still here.
Im so close to do some admin-abuse on those inquake gamers ...
It's allways the same, 3 of them can hold back a hole team, must be borring to those running at the same team, and it certainly not fun for the opposit team. They will not even out on both teams, when asked, and if they do, 3 sec after admin has left, the 3 of them are on same team again. I will try to contact them, still do not know how, and if they do not comply, they will get a ban ...
And to the public, its very easy to who is who:
Pull down your console, and do write pb_plist
Then you get a list of players with the last part of the guid:
Knacknub: *d85e31
100DM: *424410
most of the other inquake gamers does not hide ..., well I havnt seen them

No doubt about that those players are god and overskillt in compare to many of the people that are on our server,and somtimes i got the felling that there misson are to empty the server.Because people are not having fun if the other team (and in the winning team) when it is so overskillt as it is when the inquake gamers are taking over the server (in undercover names of course ! ) If only they couldt even up and play fair.And maybe play for the team instead of spawnrape and other things.
Ore even better play on there own (inquake)server (if they have one and people will play the game like that).
The thought of a ban haved cross my mind tbh a few times !
@Old_Man
Understandable, your server, your rules.
Simple as that, then again, a good reason for a ban like this is always needed. Simple put, do a XP-whoring ban on them, and tbh right on the spot for those as well. The lulu? servers have some of them banned that way as well: Link
And i guess you know, do a PB ban, if not they just change account/ nick and they are in again (New account/ Nick = game GUID)
When it comes to the 8 char PB GUID you can retrieve the 32 chars from the logs, if you want to ban with that instead.

Well hugin, your reply has given some foundation to a debat internally in >>99<<, we have spoken about it before, and again we are talking how to make sure to have a good server, and make sure good skilled gamers feel welcome, and at the same time the gamers are respecting the rules set for the server. We have not found the finale solution yet.
When all this is said and done, our experiences are dialog is the best, trying to explain what we expect from guests on our server.
If a ban is issued, most of the players will sign up on the homepage complaining in the forum, and the time spend on explaining why the ban was issued are better used on a dialog. Better to prevent than cure.
One thing is sure though, if some hard rules are set, >>99<<-people has to follow them to the last dot. Untill today we have been patient, allways evaluation the situation. We have done nothing if the teams have been balanced, this might change in the future. The link you have set for the lulu-forum could be an inspiration for future use, at least as a reminder to the admins why the ban was issued.
I made the link for the rules in bold and yellow colour, so it's easy to see what rules to follow, if people are spending a lot of time on the server, then I expect people to have read the rules.
