Vac is an old system that never really worked at preventing cheats. I've never thought of delayed bans as a good idea, I can see the logic behind it, but it's just so outweighed by the fact that it basically lets people cheat, get caught, and continue to cheat for quite some time after being caught. Sometimes I don't think it even matters, Valve just ends up making more money off cheaters than regular players, I don't see how they'd care either.

F2P or not, the players are not even getting VAC banned for known public cheats, so it doesn't really matter.

    I'd agree that I'm a "nutter", but not on this case. the female in
    question was the spouse of one of the admins.... and we review all
    our bans anyways.

        Giving special rights to people on your server just because
        they are a
        female and can't ignore people herself? You're a bloody
        nutter! Please
        post your server name so I may add it to my blacklist and
        never have
        the misfortune of joining it.
