And remember to report any issues you have to the official counter-strike channel on GamesNET and Quakenet (#counter-strike). This is how we relay information to Valve to give you all less hassles.



Oooh, that sounded so professional. *giggles*

*giggles at DrMagus*

Let me also remind you not to PM me on this issue. I alone do not have direct access to Valve and their coders. If you state that you're having issues in the channel, we (as ops) will relay it as a whole.

We are aware that some people are having issues with the new VAC, but it's nothing that hasn't happened before. We have people in continual contact with Valve to get the latest updates on what's happening.

And as rizzuh probably already said (I know he did VERY CLEARLY in a meeting we had), admins, restart your server. That should clear it up.



Thank you.

Wow, I think Magus used all the big words in his personal dictionary on that one. :)

[DrMagus]

Why the hate, people? WHY WHY WHY? D:~

yeah have you figured out the problem why i got kicked from a secure server and i don't cheat? wtf



i was pissed.

hirc, my friend used "hirc" ( irc plugin ) and he got banned.

[Lethal]

hmm. What exactly in hlirc would get someone banned. It doesn't exactly hook any dlls....

[DrMagus]

It's not. It's a freaky concidence.

There is no link between banning and HIRC (at this time). We'll keep you posted on any new developments if we hear of them.

[CARTMAN]

I was using HLiRC but, i dont think thats what got me banned

Nobody is talking about turning off foosteps.

They are talking about turning off footstep sounds, which many hacks use to pinpoint other players.

[DrMagus]

I would like to clarify an earlier statement I said.



UNCONFIRMED reports are trickling in that HLIrc is giving out false positives. I was informed by e7-Dock- that if you uninstall HLIrc, you will not be kicked by the new VAC module.



Please bear in mind that these reports are UNCONFIRMED, and until VALVe gives CSNation an official notice that indeed this is an issue, please take this report with a grain of salt.



Thank you.
