VAC Bans Ramp Up

OTOH, it's a very good thing VALVE is taking cheaters seriously and is apparently doing a good job hunting them down. I really like Pomme's "silent ban" idea, because I can imagine that it would really make the cheater finding process much more effective.

email them and ask for your case to be reviewed. i'm not saying you were cheating, but if you were, just give up.

lolzzzzzzzzzzz the new footprint/signature scan rage of vac and with the old spring scan vac can so easily be bypassed with hexing, unfortuataly this only add to the pool of cheats to fake skill most coders dont even play cs but just get joy of bypasssing vac...

Valve should add VAC to un-secure servers?

dumbass.

un-secure servers are normally set-up by cheaters for other cheaters to play on without the 'fear' of being caught. Just stick to secure servers (as most of them are) and u'll be fine.

I want to see VAC put up a list of all the cheaters caught (and with a search engine so you can be able to find someone quickly) It would be like a big wall of shame and that would deter cheaters even more if their friends or clanmates know about it.

You do not need to restart a server.

But I do have to restart my HLTV every time a VAC update comes out, since it won't stay connected properly to the server through the process.

Wow - a hell of a change since my 1.3 admin days where I'd stay up al night and next morning kicking cheaters. Can't believe the change - took a while though. The wait was worth it :)

Bout time guys - excellent work!



Plus, I've been wondering lately (seen other comments to this effect) why server play seems to have slowed dowm immensely. Rounds last longer, etc... It's good to see that they have found an effective way to curb the surplus of cheats that were available. That and I've been wondering why it's easier to kill a couple guys I frequently play against... I wonder if they'll be there tomorrow?
