Is using a macro vac bannable?

[Sandew]

I'm planning on making a simple macro for tf2 so i can use the Eureka Effect

(https://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Eureka_Effect)

without pressing two buttons. I just want to make sure I'm not doing anything wrong/against the rules. I'm using Razer Synapase's Macro feature

No, using macros that come with your mouse/keyboard software will not result in a VAC ban.

Might cause an Overwatch ban, though.

Yeah, totally forgot. They do apply matchmaking/game ban, so be careful where you use it.

He is talking about Team Fortress 2, not CSGO

If what you're DOING with this macro LOOKS like cheating, you will definitely be reported by players, and that might lead to an overwatch conviction.

Be courteous to the people you're playing with. If it looks like a cheat, even if you don't think it IS one, people will be well within their rights to report it.

As long as it's not exploiting something and causing bothers to other players, i think it's good to go.

TF2 doesn't have overwatch and also report button in this game it like do nothing when you report someone

OP owns CSGO. So is it best to cover all of the bases? Yes.
