Banana Gaming Text Mod Got Me Banned!

[bignoseyking]

The story goes as followed. I was playing a 1v1 server on CSGO with a friend when i was kicked and had a message come up in front of my screen saying "You have been banned for VAC secure servers", at first i thought it was a joke as i did not use any illegal client or mod but when i found out i actually had a VAC ban pertaining to CSGO i was shocked! i did my researched and looked at all files that were downloaded in the past month and none of them where reported as cheat based clients. As i did more research i came across a comment on Banana Gamings video explaining the he got a VAC ban for using the newest version of the mod as the system thought it was a client used to alter to the game. now back to present day (today) i went on CSGO to see if my infraction was removed because they realized that it was falsely placed but what I found out was that I was not overwatched or game banned, I was banned by the system itself for a infraction of my game files, at this point i was so angry that a multi billion $ company cannot see through this obvious mistake. If anyone has any other stories like mine to share please feel free to reply to this thread with the, and if you are working for valve or know a software dev at Valve please inform them about this mistake as more and more players will use this mod and be wrongfully banned!

What dll?

I removed it now but it was something like "BananaGamingTextMod3.0.dll"

Maybe you download some random malicious mod? I downloaded it, there's no dll included, nor does it say anything about needing a dll in the installation instructions

1. Choose which version you want, then copy csgo_bananagaming.txt
2. Paste the file inside this folder:
Steam\SteamApps\Common\Counter-Strike Global Offensive\csgo\resource <--
3. Add "-language bananagaming" in launch options without quotes
4. Restart your game
