VAC ban warnings?

[UltranovaArceus]

Let's say somone hacked and cheated in a VAC secured server. I know that VAC bans have days to weeks of delay, so is there any warning in advance after you cheat that you are going to get VAC banned in few days, a week... etc?

Your warning is when you get banned

My advice

DON'T CHEAT

It's amazing how much people will do to try and get over on the system.

Why should we give a warning to cheaters to let them know they're gonna get banned? They hardly deserve it.

I see. Thanks. I will will never cheat, and I never have. One more question: I was in a special server where all of weapon effects awere multiplied by 10 (2fort). Anyways, while I was playing, the game closed into a tab and a weird blank, black tab apperaerd, twice. What does this mean? The black tab was small, and it looked like the tab you get when you open Blender, the 3D program. PLEASE TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED!

First, not hijack other people's Threads.
Second, take a read:
Valve Anti Cheat System.
I've Been Banned.

When you join VAC secured server you been already warned. You got message like "THIS SERVER IS VAC SECURED CHEATING WILL RESULT IN PERMANENT BANN" depends which game you play. Why you need warning if you are clear?

LOL. What do you suggest the warnings say "You have been banned for a cheating infraction. This ban will take place in the future. Please feel free to hack the ♥♥♥♥ out of the game until that time." or perhaps "Dear Mr Hack Author. This hack is detectable. This account will be banned in the near future. In the meantime, please feel free to adjust your hack until you do not see this message."

Technically your first of several potential warning, is when you agree to the SSA, which outlines their cheating policy.

I cant tell you what that was, but, you wont get banned for playing on a modded/hacked server, only the one running it might get (in some games, dont know about tf)

It is funny to see that many people who have gotten banned have always had FPS games on their profiles, and few other game types listed. Yours is CS, of course, falls on that category.

You can do nothing. VAC bans are permanent.

Sv_cheats=1 is a ban? What game was this in?

[Ragecrab]

How can Sv_cheats 1 result a ban. it makes no sense.
