Even Balance, Inc. offers a premium, optional Name Registry hosting service for Players, Clans, Guilds and other groups who wish to take advantage of our facility for online identity verification. Registered names are password protected so that only persons knowing the correct password will be designated as *Registered while playing on PunkBuster-Enabled Game Servers. Subscribers will be able to Register Names either with Partial or Full matching. Registered Names for Partial matching are designed for groups such as clans, guilds, etc. whose members wear a "tag" (usually at the beginning or end of each member's playing name). For Partial type Names, the Registered Name can appear anywhere in the player's name to attain *Registered status. Full matching Registered Names will require an exact match of the playing name to the Name Registration record in order to attain *Registered status.

Each Registered Name comes with a descriptive line of text (up to 80 characters) that is provided so that a website, email address, membership requirements, or other information describing the group or person represented by the Registered Name can be displayed to other players during gameplay. The Name Registry is not exclusive with regards to unique Registered Names. Different groups / players will be allowed to Register a Name that is already in the Registry. All Registrations of a unique Name after the first will have a serial number automatically appended to the Name Registration so that different Registrations can be easily distinguished. More information is available on our website at evenbalance.com.
