Reporting Cheater

[乂q.p乂]

...does it really help, if cheaters are reported? There are too many of them... espacially WH.
How do you handle Cheaters in your game? Report them? Vote them out (every round) or leave you the game and join the next one?

if cheaters have multiple accounts dose this mean we legit players are gonna need them too when we get a cool down from leaving a bad game due to any cheater only to be able to avoid any holdup, cool down or ban? Valve needs to stop the cheaters first by hardware banning them?

What happen's when we stop reporting the cheaters? will we be used for making reports or will it free us for a little for not reporting, same ♥♥♥♥ no? well the report option is there to be used by admins not only players who have no options nor say so on who's cheating. there are so many cheaters still around that it makes everyone thing that everyone is cheating the sad fact is that it's pointless to not do anything vise versa so likewise let's just hope that the legit players are not getting mistreated from simply wanting better days to come. i think trust factor is removed and should be since it could also be misused/admin abuse we just want some peace & escape this unfair disadvantage lame times of ignorance from petty gown ups allowing little kids to cheat as if it's okay without a thing to worry about.

All the report button does is put some green text in your chat - it has no function.

Sometimes im wondering why Valve letting this happening like why they can’t focus only to anti cheat. All i see is more updates more stuff to the game but nothing to anti cheat.

Permanent Bans are being Delayed

but the Valve Anti Cheat System is working as intended

shown on the Steam VAC Discussion Forum here

https://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/9/

every single day 24/7 got people complaining about False VAC Bans on the forum which the link i provide.

majority of them who complain comes from CS 2.

i don't think reporting for cheating does anything, i don't think those buttons even work, other than displaying a message that report was sent.
MAYBE if they get MASS reports every match, it might decrease their trust factor.
somewhere i read that reporting for cheats triggers VAC live scan. it means it scans their game's memory and files and running processes, but i don't see how that's helpful, since VAC does those scans every 5 mins or so anyways.

it won't hurt to report them anyways. personally i report player every time i think they cheat. if i spectate a teammate and see teammate or enemy pull some suspicious stuff, then i report.

because they don't want to. about 20 years ago i spoke to 2 valve devs about VAC, they specifically said that they are not aiming to eliminate all cheats, instead they only aim to ban known public cheats and tools (such as cheat engine).
they also said they don't want to do hardware or IP bans as this will result in lot of friendly fire where legit players get banned only cuz they use shared PC.
nowdays we have cloud gaming, gaming cafes and also shared computers within family. you can't hardware ban someone only cuz they use shared PC, that's common sense.

rockstar games is doing IP bans and it's as dumb as it can get. most ISPs nowdays have dynamic IP, including me. my IP changes every day, i was once playing gta 5 when IP changed and i got banned only cuz i got somebody's previously banned IP.
my account wasn't effected, but i couldn't play until next day when IP changed again.
this is how dumb IP and hardware bans are. i even made a video on it and it got lot of views and lot of people said same stuff has happened to them.

however steam does track emails and phones. if cheater uses same email and/or phone on multiple accounts and one account gets banned, then so will all others.

If I suspect someone is cheating on my games, I use the in game report function, let the system do it's job.

Reports don't really do anything. Valve doesn't really care to fix the cheating issue at all. They already make millions everyday from their casino or case openings. They really could careless about cheaters and the community. This is obvious as any other MULTI BILLION DOLLAR company would add a working anti cheat to their game. Valve runs a casino now sadly, they game and community don't matter.

I was playing CS since 2000....now is the worst! hacker and cheater are everywhere. ruining the gaming experience. but yes! Valve don't care anymore. they already rich making money. no more soul of the game. being rich is the key!!
