No one here can tell you for 100% certainty what 3rd party tools will/will not get you banned. You download, install, and use these programs at your own discretion.

No that tool won't get you vac banned, and besides you can run it when cs go is not running anyways. It only edits your windows firewall blocklist. Make sure you only get it from gamebanana though, other websites have viruses in it.

The pure fact that it's called "[Official]" while it is not rings my alarm bells.

I use it to block the brazil server.... 6 months, not banned... But anyways, you can run the program with cs go closed, so no, you won't get vac banned. If your paranoid then close cs go before using it.

For those who don't trust the program, here is the text document that the blocklist uses on that program, just manually add them to your firewall if you desire. http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=be4eZRKr
ofc you get banned

"[Official]" only means that is the real MM Server Picker because there is a fake one included with a Virus/Malware to scam/hijack People.

But as mentioned already, if you know the IP's from the Matchmaking Servers, you can add them manually into the "hosts" File located in "Windows\System32\drivers\etc"/in your Firewall instead of using a Tool to block them.

That mod tool should be 99.9% safe to use as long you download it from that site
over 70000 people has already downloaded it
(so if this gives you vac ban many would had complained by now)

Or maybe this is the fake one. Because "[Official]" are just a couple of letters everyone can slap in front of the description.

There are not fake mod's or any virusses on gamebanana (they get deleted before you realize)
if something on GB can give you a ban then it will be noted with big red text

Then they can just as well scrap the "[Official]" string. It is still misleading.

If before you do something you ask yourself, "can I get banned for this?" Odds are you shouldn't do it.
Dexs Apr 7, 2015 @ 10:54am 
i think its not cheat so you shouldn't get banned
F2k Apr 7, 2015 @ 11:02am
