People with VAC


(Remedica) #21

[quote=“Vinos;107077”]Feeling disgusted by playing with VAC-banned people? A complete exaggeration based prejudice. On top of that, you do a 180 degree spin in your rant before you ask of us to scream in an echo chamber.

As for VAC-banned people, I don’t really care. It’s hard for a player to determine cheaters. I’ll let the anti-cheat programs process potential cheaters while I have a friendly conversation with an obvious cheater in-game.[/quote]

“A complete exaggeration based prejudice?” :smiley: Okay.
Where did I do the 180 degree spin and asked people to scream in echo?

“I have a friendly conversation with an obvious cheater in-game.” How nice of you.
May I ask whats your steam name? :wink:

Yup, that’s the only reason to get VACd. The only one. And noone ever got banned for something else.

Technically it’s right what @steelMailbox said.

I remember those poor people who got VACd by the free-MW3-weekend for just playing the game. Or from MW2 and things like just random bans or bot-modus-programs.

Believe or not, not really important, but personally got VAC-banned for trying to fix CS:GO crashing all the time in loading screen with a .dll file.

A VAC doesn’t mean the guy is cheating.
But obvious cheating with multiple VACs and a low-level account is probably cheating.[/quote]

I understand your frustration since you have VAC ban too.
And I already said in the first post: “I also know there’s people with VAC who doesn’t currently cheat”

I also know you can get rid of false VAC bans if you can prove it was for wrong reasons.[/quote]

Frustration? What?

I tried to get it removed, but Valve support said they can’t do anything about the VAC system because it’s a total different team sitting on it. But, because It happened in the refund time of steam (within 2 hours after byuing I believe), I got my money back.
Edit: I don’t believe they lift VACs ever, too. Can you please show some source of what you said? Not like I on’t believe you, but I’ve never seen someone, nor heard of lifted VAC bans for the reason I wrote above.

today on competetive one player with phantom was incredibly good, most of the shots were headshots, he was incredible. So incredible so it was suspicious. So I checked this steam profile. Guess what. 3 VAC bans on the record.

So he was not that good at all but only cheater. If I may, I vote block access to the game for VAC banned.

Well I assumed it would be frustrating to get VAC if you seriously only tried to fix some crashes.

Here is one of the stories for example: https://www.reddit.com/r/GlobalOffensive/comments/2cm34j/yes_false_vac_bans_do_happen_my_ban_was_lifted/

That sucks bro. :confused:
I’ve met these multi VAC guys too…

Once a cheater - always a cheater.

Don’t know how much evidence a reddit post is to you, but here it is. There were multiple occasions where people had their bans lifted. Rare occasions but it seems to happen from time to time.

Not really. I don’t really mind it since I disliked the CS:GO gameplay and its differences from the original CS 1.6.

All I’ve got from Valve was “We can’t lift your ban since VAC and the Valve support are 2 different teams” and so on. But as I said, it happened within the refund time-range, so well, shit happens.
But to be honest, that reddit story looks fishy. He never actually shows his profile with the VAC-ban, only an ingame screenshot of CS. He could take a banned profile and rename it like his non-banned. And his proof in form of vacbanned.com also says he was never banned in form of “NOT BANNED” instead of “UNBANNED” which means “was banned and unbanned again”.

@Jostabeere Of course you need to be critical about everything that’s out there, but you asked for one example so I did deliver only 1, I also have 1 friend who was VAC’d for no reason and got it off.
There’s also unbanned list on the site to see people gotten their bans off.
