Excessive ban CSS issue Solved

Question

Here, this message is addressed to Counter-Strike players (experienced?). Almost all good players have already been accused of being a "cheater" or even insulted for no reason -_-
But what to do when you get banned (permanently) from the server by an admin, for having been accused (a taunt!) of cheating when that is not the case??
I specify that I am accused of using a "wallhack", so they say since I always watch the walls! (it's pure paranoia!), it's true that I was beating the opponent in question only 20 to 12! but he said that I always knew where he was?! It is true that my experience in the game, and the fact that this map is very well known (de_dust2) helps me to guess the position of my opponent but it's nothing more than luck!
I tried to explain calmly with them on their team’s site but I only received insults.
I specify that of course no cheat was launched on my computer or on my account. I particularly appreciate this server so for those who would tell me to "change servers" I will answer that if I wanted to, I would not have bothered to do all this! ^^
Can we consider filing a complaint with Steam?
Thanks in advance!

A complaint about that?? it’s not a big deal, huh, you’ll see more later ;) As for the gratuitous insults, unfortunately that’s not what’s missing on the servers :(

Don’t worry, there are so many servers, you’ll find others (sorry, I understand that’s not what you want to hear).

Not long ago I almost got banned from my favorite server because a player took the same nickname as me. I asked him why but no answer, and there he goes, racking up frags, he was cheating. Everyone started banning me even though I clearly stated “Careful, there are two players with the same name there.” I left when there was only one vote to eject me, then I came back 20 minutes later and there everyone was saying “oh no, that cheating PiXi again...”. I kindly explained the situation to them, but none of them believed me. Even if they had banned me, what would you do about it? and it wasn’t even that serious anyway.

There are so many assholes playing CS (and not just CS...), you have to rise above it.

hmm it's true that abusive bans can sometimes be heavy-handed: however if you are really acting in good faith (which I don't deny, but there are so many cheaters that it's hard to sort out) a complaint to Steam won't have much chance of resolving your problem...  if it were possible to explain directly with the admin from the site (to explain that if they have an anti-cheat system on their servers they can verify that you weren't cheating... but again your chances are slim (they can't verify everyone)  the simplest solution would be to switch servers (but I guess you would want to resolve the problem differently) there are, however, lots of FR servers with a very good atmosphere !!!!

Pi_Xi · Answer

There are hundreds, even thousands of quarrels like this every day, you know, since they can’t check everything, you’ve got to deal with it.

ZArGon · Answer

OK thanks to everyone for being so quick to respond to me, one last question (this could be useful for other things): can we obtain from Steam a "certificate" proving that no cheat has been launched from your account? A simple and irrefutable way to show goodwill. Thanks again to everyone!

Perdrix · Answer

Hi!  I was banned from Steam for cheating supposedly, even though I did not cheat! I landed on a shitty server with admins who did cheat, it was obvious, and when I pointed out that it was way too obvious they laughed, but didn’t give a damn... I told them what I thought of them and their noob server, and when I tried to reconnect to Steam today... I’M BANNED FOR LIFE APPARENTLY! (permanent ban...) I then wanted to see what was going on and on Steam's site they say zero tolerance for cheaters, so permanent ban!  It’s really disgusting that Steam gives the power to exclude its customers to little shits, filthy morons of clowns with no morals and with 2 IQ... Believe me they would remember it for a while if I could have them in front of me!  Is there a way to make Steam understand this or is it hopeless?  Thanks in advance.

ZArGon · Answer

Hello to you, simple admins do not have the power to ban your Steam. They can only do it on their own server but in no case to deny you access to all game servers! What message did Steam send you exactly? VAC off?

Perdrix · Answer

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to respond, it’s very kind of you!

Sorry, the other day I was really upset, my message is a bit toxic... lol

Well, actually I can’t access VAC servers anymore! A small window opens when I try and tells me that "my Steam account ****(mine) is banned from VAC servers for cheating issues..." and I have the impression it’s admins because one day I was banned as I explained in the first message... I was super heated as it happens and without bragging I was really hurting them.. So they started cheating, these nazis, and now it’s impossible.. I told them what I thought of them.. they "kicked and banned" me. I closed the game at that moment and the next day Steam opened and a message told me I’ve been VAC banned plus the little message when I try to log in...

So today I only have unsecured servers with cheaters everywhere and since I don’t have any hacks on my computer it gets very tiring.. There are servers where supposedly cheating isn’t tolerated but where there are at least two or three who cheat and try to pass themselves off as "high" while you quickly realize they’re aiming aside, draw and shoot two times faster than you or get a clip to the head but don’t die...

Since I don’t have all that, often the game gets on my nerves especially since I feel I don’t deserve what’s happening to me...

But I think there’s nothing to do... right?

I sent an email to Steam but they replied with their slogan "zero tolerance for cheaters" without trying to help me...

Thanks in advance

ZArGon · Answer

Hello. One thing is for sure, it’s not the admins’ “kiked and banned” that could have caused this. There are several people who have seen Steam ban them from VAC without ever cheating (so they say...). Either all these people are lying, or it’s a Steam bug, but I don’t know anyone (in my gaming circle) who has been VAC-banned without ever cheating. So I’m sorry for you, but there is no solution...

booba27100 · Answer

Hello,  Here is my situation: my account was banned while I was on vacation, I suspect my brother cheated during my absence. (Do you believe me or not ...)  I had to spend another 35 euros for Counter-Strike: Source but I don’t dare to install it because I don’t know if Steam bans the account or if they ban the IP of my PC.  (A friend supposedly got banned with his account 2 even though he cheated with account 1) Is it related to the internet connection, his account, or the IP of his machine ???   Could you enlighten me on this point, thank you in advance.

burn70 · Answer

I find it disgusting that simply because I’m a very good player I don’t want to boast about it, no I’m not here for that; let someone ban me for two of my friends because I’m better than him in every game, I used to kill him, I felt like it, and it seems to me that’s the point of the game. And this son of a b***h banned me from my favorite server, and that makes me furious because I knew that guy.

Also, I have a request: If one of you knows a public deathmatch server that is exclusively on surf-ski2, please give me a sign and share the IP of that server, thank you in advance.

I’m going to say something you might not like, but that’s not a big deal!!! I got my Steam account banned for alleged cheating, even though I never cheated and I’m only mid-level, and when Steam bans an account it’s a permanent ban and you can’t lift the ban, that’s the problem!!! I don’t know what to do since I don’t want to buy a new account (game in-store) for something I didn’t do!! If you have any advice to give me, please give it to me, I would be grateful!! a++

Hello, you’ll see more of them, there are many servers and you’ll find one to your taste. Look, I was fed up with abusive bans or being kicked for no reason, so I decided, since I could, to make a dedicated CS server with AMX Mod X and MetaMod for several reasons. But I have almost no one joining besides my brother and a friend, so if anyone is interested because it’s a server that will stay cool, I’m giving you the IP: 78.115.141.155:27015ps: I have a very good computer and I use another computer to let it manage everything, but if there are more than 10 of us for example I don’t know how it will perform. Normally fine, but we’ll see. My in-game name is and f@ntomas. thanks and see you next time

guys I have the ultimate solution for this, I'm in Algeria here, after every reboot of the computer the IP changes, it's magical when I get banned, simple I reboot my computer and there you go, conclusion: the ban system works with the IP. solution: download software that changes the IP, that exists, there are even free ones, so you would never be banned again. but don't think I'm a cheater, I never cheated.

Mathan · Answer

Hello,

I just ran into this problem. I have never cheated in my life. This afternoon I had a war with my team [P]arqno. The war ended, I logged out of my war server, and I switched to other games such as PES 2008, etc. I didn’t leave the PC. And about 2 hours ago I tried to relaunch a game and when connecting to my FFA server I’m told I’m VAC banned for cheats. stop smoking, I’m as anti-cheater as possible. Moreover no one has access to my PC, not even my girlfriend. It’s utterly puzzling. At least could someone help me send a grievance?

Thank you

jos · Answer

No, it's a virus on servers that modifies CSS programs like a cheat, except that VAC detects it right away, so you're in trouble, but the good news is that your Steam ban won't last forever in 5 years!! They mess with our genitals to death, me and 5 friends were banned at the same time without cheating in our lives (we were on the same server).

kencef · Answer

well here, for some time now I can’t log in to my favorite server and for good reason I manage to kill an entire team often. the players started asking admins to ban me they said I was a cheater which isn’t true it’s just that I have very strong experience in cs 1.6 and a bit of training with bots at expert level and since I’m a regular on de_dust2 I knew all the hiding places, tricks and I also had reflexes for example sometimes when I start turning I jump and shoot and there are frequently deaths they tell me I use wallhacks radar… which isn’t true there aren’t only cheaters I’m just very good I play in tournaments and all this isn’t a big problem for me because I have a pirated cs from Morocco which means my IP changes all the time I have a non-steam cs if someone can suggest a good server I’m looking for one

Jordan_D · Answer

Hello, I'm posting this message to tell skeptics that abusive permanent bans from Steam are not a legend, it happened to me a while ago; indeed I saw my Steam account banned from VAC servers, even though I never cheat. I am more than an occasional player; cheating does not amuse me. I have noticed that I wasn't the only one affected by this problem, and that often the only answer you get from other players on forums is: if Valve banned you it's because you cheated. On top of that, a system bug is possible, guys (I'm a computer scientist, I know what I'm talking about). And paying a second time for a game you already bought, because of a mere bug, is simply unacceptable. If one day it happens to you, you'll understand (I don't wish it on you, that said, it's very frustrating). The number one problem is mainly the finality of the ban, and the systematic suspicion from Valve as well as from other players. It's as if being honest, in good faith, today was almost impossible. I'm sorry to disappoint your fantasies, but there are honestly people in France today. What is dishonest, however, is Steam's attitude, which doesn't even bother replying to the emails we send them. Worse, it is even clearly stated on their site that they will never give us any explanation about a ban, and they claim it is impossible to unban anyone. I quote: "Steam Support cannot remove the ban on your account Regardless of who was using your account at the time it was banned, the use and security of your Steam account is your responsibility. The details of the ban will not be provided Steam Support will not disclose the cheats that were detected running on your system or the date and time the infraction took place. Any requests for this information will be ignored. VAC may not ban you immediately - the cheating violation may have occurred days or even weeks before the ban is apparent on your account. "If that's not bad faith on Steam's part, I don't know what is. They assume their system is infallible: no technician worthy of that name can claim such a thing. And so, if you have been banned, too bad for you. I regret it, but this is unacceptable. If someone has an idea to change that, I'm all ears.

But the day before the ban, I was on a server and I saw my Steam ID displayed that day; I wasn’t cheating!! lol, okay I cheated, I’ll admit it, but just for an hour to test, you’d say that’s normal and I understand, but if it was the two guys who banned me on the other server, I’m furious!!!!!!!!

I would like to know please what is the problem.

Thanks in advance.

Arnaud3829 · Answer

Hey, did you transfer your account to someone else? And I’m really sorry to tell you this, but when you’re banned from a Steam game you’re banned permanently and there’s no possibility to unban (since 2004 they don’t unban anymore). The only way to play on protected servers is to buy a new account, because when there’s a virus on your computer, do some research to remove it. Often what viruses look for are passwords, credit card numbers, and all personal information.

DunnotHackOnDofus · Answer

Grr! So I’m not the only one! Great business of Steam the free ban!

I was banned for being a perfect Steam user. I explain, and I hope the people who mock me read this!

I log into Steam on a beautiful summer morning, and a guy invited me to be his friend. His name is: Admin

I thought, yeah cool guy, who does he think he’ll get? I accept him to mess with him, I log into a Steam server, and ONE BY ONE I get banned (right after the famous "admin" logs in) So I’m screwed! I asked him what the hell this was, he explained that he was a Steam admin with full power on all servers. Two days later he asks me to help test detection of a hack called kartefoll or something like that, I told him to go away, but he said he wouldn’t hesitate to ban me at the slightest chance if I didn’t do what he said. So I downloaded it (he gave me the link) he gave me an IP of a server and told me to go there and activate the hack, like a fool I didn’t know how to do it, so I dropped it. A week later... VAC ban!

One thing to say,

and I won’t say it, I don’t want to end up in court for shocking kids ><

DunnotHackOnDofus · Answer

Cartman, this might be useful to you:

https://www.francaisfacile.com/

And that's not all :D Yes, I do like to break people... But, Cartman, do you think installing a pendulum at the bottom of your screen Cs: source is a cheat? On that, at least, we agree. Then go read the terms when you create a Steam account and when you buy Cs: Source.

It says that you must agree not to change the game's data under penalty of a VAC ban. As I just said, you can change a game's data without it being a cheat.

That’s the case for only a few people but it exists. A little tip: If you’re VAC banned, then come here: http://toxteam.roxorgamers.com/index.php? We might find a spot for you.

Otherwise, I suggest you stop cheats for good. Sharpen your skills by playing against Wallackers, that’s how I went from LOW+.

Hello, sorry if I make mistakes but I have to respond quickly to this post.

If you play on this server often, and you are banned by voteban, then in that case, call an admin and have him verify that there are abuses.

If, on the other hand, it is an admin from the server team who banned you, you can go file a complaint with the team leader or a higher-ranking member than the person who banned you on the forum! (:

Now if it’s the team leader who bans you, he’s a good-for-nothing and you should change servers ;p

I also get banned from servers quite a bit because of my level that's said to be "cheated": don't worry about it. In general, CZ and CSS are full of kids (gamins, kids, from 13 years to... 8 years. You wonder what the parents are doing.)
Simple example: FFA server: score, 8 kills for 0 deaths. 3 of them headshots. Permanent ban from ALL servers of the team. When you hear them on the microphone, you can tell they’re KIDS.

Hi, I got banned yesterday for a second or third time on this server. I find it abusive; I certainly didn’t cheat. I play for fun and I’m far from one of the best. I’d really like to know why I’m being banned???

lol · Answer

Seriously, I got banned for cheating by VAC for cheating, but VAC doesn’t look if you cheat; they look on your computer, any plausible cheating software! So frankly, they told me that if I had a file "hack.exe" or stuff like that the ban was certain. I had one for an AoE2 game made by my brother and me when we played online in a network; I can tell you it made me lose trust in their system and to only play on servers not secured by VAC!
May they learn to use it if they want cheaters; I file 4/5 per day for them by going on very well-known servers, so frankly we need to start a petition against VAC lol!

Instead of complaining, set up your own server.
No, what an idiot.
