Counter Strike 2 incorrect VAC ban

[seven]

So I got banned for “cheating” when there is literal proof that I wasn’t. I started streaming CS:GO on my YT channel recently and people were saying that I was cheating. They might’ve though that and reported me for cheating but I put this on god that I wasn’t. I watch pro CS:GO tournaments, CS:GO pro tutorials and other CS:GO videos, this was the most false ban ever given. And how come I get banned for cheating when I literally report someone fort actual wall hacking and aimbot but they don’t get banned. I spent money on this game bro, I bought prime, cases, stickers. wtf?

Reports have nothing to do with VAC! VAC works by detecting known cheats.

VAC bans come from the detection of a known cheat and nothing else, whether it is used on the account itself or some sort of sharing has occurred (account, library, or phone number). Keep in mind anything that modifies the game files is considered a cheat.

VAC bans are permanent, non-negotiable, and cannot be removed by Steam Support or by anyone on this forum.

This is NOT an appeal forum, and you cannot appeal VAC bans.

Incorrect bans are removed automatically after a period.

VAC flags an account due to an infraction in the past. Today, when the account was restricted from playing cs, this is not the day 'something was detected.' this is just when the player was stopped from playing further.

VAC is a passive system. Cheaters often think they aren't caught. Until they are.

if your ban is actually false, which is a very small chance, but not zero, as vac is likely to be getting further updates, it will be automatically removed. no player input is required for this process.

you know what actions you took personally. they know exactly what happened, server side. if there was any cheating at any point in the past, you can rely on the fact that the ban will be infinite. there is no unban from a VAC ban due to cheating, and no special concessions or amount of bribery that will change it.

spending money in the cs microtransactions does not immunize an account from a ban, and has no special consideration given to it. all players are equally subject to the rules for fair play.
