if they didnt mean to cheat?
no drugs thnx :P
no cheating is like #2 or maybe #3. #1 is LAG.
or maybe instead or as well as my idea... maybe not permanent ban...
maybe 1
month? then next time 6 months, then 1 year, then forever.

Umm no
WTF would you want to give little cheating pricks any leniancy
whatsoever?
What drugs are you on?
If you are not on drugs start thinking about taking some!
Cheating is the biggest #1 scourge of online gaming
Valve screw up, thats a given, but cheating and the problems they
cause are and entirely different order of magintude than any other
problem players and server adminstrators face today and in the future.

i dunno.
erm, IMO, cheaters should be given a warning, like a little popup,
client-side, that says "VAC2 caught ur cheat, do it again and ur
banned",
and maybe a temporary ban of 1 week... cos some people just do not
listen
to
warnings... this would also help if, say, a friend, relative or whoever
put
a cheat on ur CSS without you knowing... kinda unfair to
instant-perm-ban
in
my opinion... ;-)

Anyone know if server admins will know if someone was banned on their
server
or not?

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?
