Maybe u said wrong server becouse ps1 doesn't have pb, or maybe pb did follow u to ps1 xDDD

i v seen someone having it in ps 2 too, or it was you..
ps 2 has PB , so i think u had a connect to ps 2 when ps 1 is full.

(bad information i know xD)

Are you sure it was ps1?

When PunkBuster detects a cheat or hack by repeated positive identification on a player's computer, a violation is raised. These violation numbers are 50000 and higher. Families of cheats are listed below. Resolution: Remove cheats and hacks from the computer.
#50000s - Aimbot
#60000s - Wallhack
#70000s - Multihack
#80000s - Gamehack
#90000s - 'Cheat' Video Drivers
#100000s - Speedhack
#110000s - Autofire
#120000s - Game Hook
#130000s - Attempted PunkBuster Hack

Game hook = valid PB Kick
Valid PB Kick = Cheat used now\past\whenever

It might be also a bug. I've heard much people had this kind of ban lately.
I think Rapid has more to say here, wait for his respond.

Carnage, more people were banned from PS2 yesterday with the same violation, like Samuraii said you were probably re-directed to PS2 cause PS1 was full.

Code: Select all: VIOLATION (GAME HOOK) #120120: Carnage (slot #7)

A quick look over at pbbans and punksbusted shows us that this violation was in fact a false positive.

666 Enemy Territory Bans have been removed from the MBI and unban commands was sent out on July 15, 2008 for hub streaming servers.

Please note we send one unban command every 10 seconds to reduce lag on servers.

So nothing to worry about
