When you get kicked, it even suggests to go to etkey.org, go there...
dont work anyway
Since I'm stupidly banned from F/A forum, and I'm not sure if that's the link DTec posted, I posted a really good tutorial with links for the pbsetup you need to use to make it work
maybe you should link that tutorial (unless its posted on FA forums)
Parent
It is. That's the problem. I can't get to it, but if anyone goes to the F|! Forums, they can look it up in ET Tutorials

etkey.org
search google for et ultimate installer and just download et again if its that big of an issue
delete etkey from etmain folder,start et and use the commend /pb_cdkeyreg
try this key: 1 2 3 4 5. I have the same combination on my luggage.
That's the stupidest combination I've ever heard in my life.

Allow me to introduce you to my luggage combination, 0 0 0 0 0.
Parent

Parent

Parent

try reistalling pb, helped for me
i used the automatic pb installer
http://etkey.org/
You have to d/l a certain pbsetup, which will work with ET. The one on the pb website doesn't give you the option to add et. Then you need to put your etkey in /user/<user name>/app data/roaming/punbkbuster/etpro/ folder if you have Vista or win 7. I THINK Win 8 is the same, but not sure
Nope, etmain in ET installation folder.
Parent
Wrong. Sorry. I know you think you're right, but wrong. It goes in the folder I said it goes in
Parent
I have installed ET on Vista/7/8/8.1 about 50 times, and I've never put my etkey on that folder.
Parent
Why would you have to install ET 50 times. I think in 5 years I've only installed it about 5 times total on 4 different OS's
Parent
Think that's a bit beside the point here :P

Anyway, the reason you would put your etkey on the folder you said, is if you didn't have write permission to the folder you have ET installed in (eg. Program Files). This would happen if you don't run ET as administrator. Because of that, game writes user data in app data instead of the installation folder. But in ET's case, this is irrelevant because you get "Failed pure server check" error if you don't run ET as administrator.
Parent
Not only do I run it as administrator, I use the built in Administrator account, not the user account on my computer
Parent
you gotta be fucking kidding me, for how long have you been playing this game, 3 days?
Parent
You're an idiot.
Parent
appdata folder is correct otherwise but etmain isntead of etpro
Parent
it goes into installation folder-> etmain for win7, winxp, mainly for someones that won't work it goes into app folder
Parent
I have it in both and the only one that gets updated is the one in the Appdata/roaming folder.

#boomIWin
Parent
well I don't have that folders in appdata :P systems differs...
Parent
I created the folder myself, then put the etkey in there and that's the one that PB reads when I join a PB server
