VAC Banned in private server?
About two weeks ago, I was looking at YouTube for videos about CS:GO Skins and floats, usually the results show me videos about skins that are being displayed in green screen, the way that these are displayed are via community servers, which I wasn't aware of.

I downloaded a skin changer and went on a private addon server with a green screen in order to make a video showcasing all the current CS:GO knives and the best skins for them.

I wouldn't consider making a showcase related content, and using the third party application in a non-malicious intent should be attested as genuinely cheating and justifying a VAC ban?

I know for a fact I never injected any cheats in a public matchmaking server or anything related to it, the sole purpose of me using a skin changer was merely for a video, and there wasn't any other player available at that moment.

Was my VAC ban deserved? Or would there be a possibility of getting my ban lifted? What do you think?

(I'll immediately ignore children that spew dumb comments like 'u cheated u deserved it')

You tried to steal, so you obvious deserve facing the consequences of your actions.

Being a server admin does not entitle you to use cheats that are client sided. A skin changer is no exception because you’re making the game give you a skin you don’t own.

Well you said you have money as water, so the skins would be like pocketmoney for.
But i think youre not telling the truth.

Anyway the ban is 100% permanent, if you dont know what the word ''Permanent'' means, you should google it.
