I would like to know that too.

Do I have to buy it again or just create another BF3 account?

Thanks in advance.
If you are PB-Banned, you need to buy BF3 again on a new Origin account and then restart from the beginning.

By the wording of that ban, you're probably PB-Banned. If you were banned by a server admin, it would generally say so in the message.

If I play on PB enabled servers, and don't abuse the hacking, just looking at people with the wallhack, can PB ban me? Whats their methods? Thanks.

PB can auto-ban you for anything that visually effects your game play. That could be anything from D3D to your cross-hairs being tiny due to no-spread. Anything that can be captured in a screenshot is able to be caught by PunkBuster.

Their methods are primarily screenshots which are taken when you receive enough reports or EA finds you suspicious. Aside from these screenshots, the only thing you can get banned for is probably a thorough look at your stats and how quickly you fire at targets behind walls etc.

They like to play their own games, as well, so it's not too much of a hassle to join a game and wait for you to do something impossible to them.
Yes, they will pb ban you for anything they can think of playing on a modded server is a bannable offence.
