My old account got banned back in 08 when i was testing d3d hooking and making custom hud overlays for games. It had some stats that it pulled from memory like players names and their ping\steam id. I was going to use it as an administration tool! It calculated peoples kills and how fast they were getting them and alerted if a player was raping to the top of the list. I was alone on MY SERVER with sv_password set while i was developing it. I didn't know about -insecure back then....
I had lost every single one of my games that I worked hard to buy and that were gifts from people. Didn't realize that reverse engineering on your own empty server was cheating.. But i guess that is life. -E3pO On Sat, Dec 24, 2011 at 12:01 PM, ics <i...@ics-base.net> wrote: > He is banned, just his old account, not the new one. > > Quit the bickering about VAC bans, nothing will change despite what we say > here.
