Personally I want cheaters banned as soon as they join the server, none of
this 'checking' stuff.
I will second that no pint in giving these ppl a timaeframe to cheat, and
IMO I can't see the difference between the threat of being banned as soon as
you join to being banned a week later. The fear is there and giving them a
week gives them a chance to anoy people while your waitng for the next
update to get them banned.

Subject: [hlds] Suggestion for VAC2.
I been away from this list for a while and after seeing the last update
notice I ran back.
Can I make a suggestion for VAC2, please?
I know its only fair to warn before inserting a new system that will try
to
catch cheaters.
I also know that it's the right way to do it when you are acctually
trying
to get more players, and not less.
But, here goes.
What if you update VAC2... but only record cheats until the next update.
Then you ban the collected list and start a new recording after the new
VAC2
update.
This way you create a fear for cheating... which is one of the most
successfull ways of stopping people from trying to cheat...
They can't just have someone else check if the cheat gets detected first,
then use it until the next VAC2 update.
To me this sounds like a really good idea, but it popped up an hour ago
while reading the archive.. so maybe I missed some side affect...
If people comment on this idea, maybe valve will consider it?
