VAC BAN VIA PARTY MEMBER, JUST STORY ABOUT MY VAC BAN DONT GET OFFENDED !
I received a VAC BAN from CSGO without using third parties programs and HERE is WHY, So please read carefully.

I have been banned in october 2022. I would like to say that I have never, ever used cheats in CSGO (either other cs games of course, because I received the ban here), and I hope valve review all my previous game matches played in my account and they will realize. I will describe why "would I have been banned".

In September 2022 one friend told me to play csgo with him. We started to play and he did not have the prime matchmaking so we played against a lot of cheaters in 2v2 wingman. We won few games and also lost a lot because we fought so many cheaters. We were playing in silver elo and I have been lem in 2013/2014, stopped playing csgo but never quit playing fps games (became top 500 in overwatch, Diamond in Valorant, etc...), so I still having skills at this kind of games.

After winning few games against cheaters, those told me that I was cheating because i was better than them, and received reports along all games I played with my friend(he is silver, we played in silver rank). After we finished our gaming session he confessed me that he was using wallhacks and I WAS NOT aware of this until the end, and I was really telling myself "omg I am going to be vac banned because you did this, why did not you tell me before" and also got really really angry with him.

I have never used third programs for cheating in my csgo games, please I really want valve to review this case, because I have more than 1k hours at csgo, and also more than 100 in other cs games, and I am really hyped for the new cs2, I am very fan of counter strike

I do not even care about csgo skins or whatever I just want to keep enjoying valve games like counter strike saga, or garrys mod.

Also I did not try to open the game until today and when I logged in, It appeared one message saying "one or more members of your recent competitive games were convicted of cheating and permanently banned from officials CSGO servers. All their associates, including you, have been penalized. Your CSGO rank, competitive wins and skill group have been adjusted and you competitive group may not display until you win a competitive match".


So remember guys, if you ever play with your silver friend ever, please make sure 100% he doesnt try to impress you using some stupid ass wallhack or you will be vac banned permanently, make sure 11 times if needed.

I wanted to share this story because theres probably more people like me out there, so dont allow any of your friends cheating.

EDIT 1: I want to share this REALLY USEFUL INFORMATION POST ABOUT HOW TO REALLY VAC SYSTEM WORKS https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=483204174

Also want to say before people start getting mad that the probably, I am 100% sure I was banned for It was for using custom skins, so take that in mind, that using custom skins may cause vac ban and all I wanted to share its just a story, Of course everyone who gets VAC ban would like to get unbanned, but its not possible, and I think EVERYONE in the steam community is aware of that, so dont get beefy, and share your thoughts.

I dont need to fake things about my gaming skills, rank experience, whatever, did not cheat in other games, either want to flex about anything, just narrative.

EDIT 2: THE FIRST BIG PARRAGRAPH WAS MY THOUGHTS ABOUT HOW I WAS LIVING THE VAC BAN EXPERIENCE UNTILL I FOUND OUT WHAT WAS REALLY HAPPENING

EDIT 3: When I speak about OVERWATCH here, I mean the videogame not the Overwatch csgo system

That's not how VAC works, good story,but a fake one.

VAC detected a computer YOUR account was signed into/using, had a program that modified game files.

VAC is an automatic system that detects known cheats on your computer. It does not care about reports, it does not care if someone else is using cheats in your match. That is an old excuse that has never worked.

All VAC bans are verified already without you having to ask, so if it was a mistake it would have been removed already.

This is not an appeal forum, nor can you appeal VAC bans.

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

https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/647C-5CC1-7EA9-3C29

Valve has detailed logs of every ban, they know what was detected and when it was. Nothing you post will get the ban removed.

THAT'S IT.

YOUR account cheated.

Read EVERYTHING....even the information contained within the links.

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

VAC bans are delayed from the time of the detection to the time that the ban is actually applied. What you were doing when the ban was applied, is irrelevant.

Why the account was banned:

all VAC bans come from the detection of a known cheat, whether it is used on the account itself or some sort of sharing has occurred (account, library, or phone number).

Users are responsible for the security of the account and all activity on the account.

Nah, like really, I know that vac bans are forever and bla bla bla, whatever, I only have the riot vanguard anticheat permanently open, nothing else.

I know I cannot prove anything. This is the message I got from the game

https://prnt.sc/CaxgfF-hnqWh

Also this dude I tell in the story knows and he is aware of everything. Of course I know If I want to enjoy any cs series game I will have to create another account, buy the prime status and start playing in ESEA, Faceit or whatever once again.

I dont get anything by just telling lies, Valve wont remove any ban, I just read all the giga post about VAC anti cheat and honestly I dont even know what the ♥♥♥♥ I had in my computer that caused this. I received the Patrol ban simultaneously with the vac one.

Also no need to lie about my ranks like, xdd whatever just leaving this there, not to flex, but Maybe because you think im just barking some random facts or whatever https://prnt.sc/jAgV_UHWA6aZ

So you got both Overwatch banned AND VAC banned. That means you got caught, twice.

VAC bans are ONLY for detected programs that mess with game files.
Yes, you shared a made up story...the only thing you are correct about in your entire wall of text.

Playing with or against cheaters doesn't cause your account to be banned. This is an old excuse that has never worked.

I never said I was banned for playing against cheaters, I know that people who reports you for good skills literally doesnt work. I am saying that my friend used wallhacks and so because of that I was also banned.

LOL


Note: Users are not VAC banned based on reports alone. Other factors are taken into account before VAC bans are issued.

https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/571A-97DA-70E9-FF74




VAC does not care about in-game performance or about any kind of demos. It does NOT use them to ban accounts, nor does it care about any demos that you may have. You can play good or bad. VAC doesn't care...cheat detected = account banned



Your account was banned because your account cheated.

As you like to read every single post about how to VAC works, maybe you can try this out.

Maybe its not about all cheating, I found probably the answer, read carefully this thread. Instead spamming the random and useless Information about how to VAC works, I would like to add this post to your link spam thing.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=483204174

Probably it was like for custom skins, then everything starts to take form.

Also I repeat i know I wont be unbanned but just wanted to share a story, really people get hurt so easy just for breathing xddd

Try again...again:

Cheats being detected is the ONLY reason for VAC bans.

Pay attention to link, it even says reason.

https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/647C-5CC1-7EA9-3C29#reason <<<---

Can you tell me what program or software caused my VAC ban?
No. We do not disclose the cheats that were detected while connected to a VAC-secured server that resulted in a VAC ban. We have detailed records for each VAC ban, however, releasing this information would only benefit cheat developers. The VAC team regularly investigates claims of false VAC bans to increase the effectiveness of Valve Anti-Cheat.
So, your ban was due to cheats being detected on YOUR account.

VAC doesn't care what other people do UNLESS the accounts are linked by a phone number or family sharing.

Your story is incorrect and you do not know how VAC works. You're not informing anyone. You're just confusing yourself.

Loool, Like you seriously acting like I did not read anything about vac ban, like. Its not about trying again, its not about getting unbanned. I am aware that I wont be unbanned thats all, Im not getting anything by this.

If you read the thread i posted in, VAC can detect any .dll file replaced as a cheat, so also replacing files for custom skins using untrusted sources can be considered cheating by the VAC system, even if it is harmless for the gameplay, its not all about HEY you open a program, you are banned, like, are you even considering more options or just tunnel vision in "Cheating, cheating, cheating", seriously, are you the Cheating patrol or what man, everything is not resumed just by clicking a third party program and getting banned.
Oh, it's a certainty that you didn't read anything or this thread wouldn't exist.
