VAC DOES NOT 'detect behaviour' it only goes on known modules that have been
added by valve (according to SW)

That's a cool mechanism, I didn't know it worked that way, but since I
want to switch between two so
Since SigScanning was mentioned, I am VERY very scared.
On a listen server, both the Server AND client dll are loaded into the
same process. VAC would be scanning that process, and may not be
limiting itself to the client.dll boundaries, and indeed, if VAC detects
Signature Scanning behaviour,
I know that no one here knows me, nor does anyone here have any reason to
trust what I am saying is accurate. I can only give my word. Unfortunately,
this is the internet, and words as well as character lack the power they
have in person.
I can honestly say that I am fully unaware as to why my ban
Seeing as all of the player locations are stored on the server anyway,
altering them would have no effect on the client (apart from being in a
different place obviously...)
I have used SigScanning MULTIPLE times and its never been a problem.
Just because someone 'seems' to not be like the cheating
A listenserver still uses the server.dll to provide the server portion of
the game. It's hard to imagine how VAC could pick it up unless you were
also doing something with the client.dll.

What I was saying, not knowing how the VAC system works, could hooking and

Either this is just another excuse to try and get unbanned, or you have

way, there is no use posting here
This is strange, I can't see how it could possible trip VAC.

Yes, you can't get banned for custom Skins, and that's why theres the server
