temporary suspension 20 hours 56

[SnabbSpelare]

I have been playing CSGO for the last 5 years, but not daily or too often. What is this about? Am I under suspicion for saying something or is it that I'm playing like a smooth anomaly? but seriously. I was playing on nuke and after that game I got this. I've never heard of this before, if you have any information please share. I also recorded all my gaming sessions so I am not lying or hiding any details

You have an active VAC ban. You shouldn't be able to play on official servers at all.

This was on TF2. I cheated in that game using the cheat engine on a two player Minecraft Mario cart (map) server. Tried to get heavy and sniper bow to infinite bullets, but got banned for it. I was young then. This was about 3 years ago. I also said that I recorded my whole session. I don't want to lose my 5 year coin + record. I hope you get the point. :/

Huh? I've been able to do that for years. VAC bans are sperate for csgo to tf2. I'm banned on css bc of my tf2 ban. Not csgo. I haven't cheated in csgo.

Unfortunately, we're just players and we don't make the rules. You can't play on official servers with a VAC ban regardless of which game you got it from

I don't have an explanation for that. As far as I'm aware, that isn't possible

Then how have I been in about 50+ games? It says I'm in suspscion cool down not a ban. Why would I be punished for something that isn't even connected. So I can't play CSGO bc I was banned in a tf2? Bruh!

I see. I guess no one can know what nightmare it is to be a bunch of code with unstable results. I hope I don't get accoused for something I didn't do. I want to play this game not be kicked or cool downed. I was just in a game with three guys and now I'm under a time out. I'm so confused.

I stand corrected. Valve's webpage about VAC bans have some more accurate information:

What games am I VAC banned from?
To see which games your VAC ban affects, please launch Steam and go to Steam > Settings > Account tab > select "Click here for details" under VAC Status.

What games can I play if I have been VAC banned?
VAC banned accounts can still play single-player games, local LAN games, and multiplayer on non VAC-secured game servers. To find non VAC-secured servers, from the Steam main menu click on View, select Servers, then select the Change Filters button in the bottom left and Not secure in the Anti-cheat dropdown.

Cheating in one of the following Source games or a Source mod will result in a VAC ban for all games in the list below:
Counter-Strike: Source
Half-Life 2: Deathmatch
Day of Defeat: Source
Team Fortress 2
Similarly, cheating in one of the following Gold Source games will result in a VAC ban for all games in the list below:
Counter-Strike
Counter-Strike: Condition Zero
Ricochet
Day of Defeat
Team Fortress Classic
Half-Life: Deathmatch
Deathmatch Classic

You should be able to hover over the in-game cooldown banner and get an explanation. Usually it's either for getting tons of cheating / griefing reports or because you got two competitive wins in 24 hours which affects everyone and isn't considered a punishment

The guys I was playing with invited me to their game and they got a issue. It's a green cool down. It says "skill..." and that I won two games too often or like that. How do I prevent this from happening? Is this a type of anti-smurf or what? I am not a pro but I like acting like Im better than I actually am. I should prob remove the feedback question I sent to valve. Idk. thank you for asking me further. I appericate you not being pushy.

[SnabbSpelare]

A little update the response I got from Valve is that I am competetive cooldown because I have been winning more than 2 games. So I'll be back in a day. Thank you all for being here. See you. Good day.
