The game is still fairly new, so anything that could just change a single file of your game, even if it doesn't give you any advantage into the game, could get you VAC banned. So just don't download or change anything related to the game, it's risky and useless.

Most people that are getting VAC banned says they didn't hack because they automaticly regret it and then will do everything possible to get it lifted. However, if you have installed a hack, you can't get it lifted and Valve WILL NOT tell you what hack and at what time you got flagged (because VAC ban doesn't show on your account automaticly after hacking, it might take a week, if not two, so you do not know what hack got you banned.)

So good luck with getting unbanned, but have almost a 100% chance that you won't.

Best solution here is create a new account and buy the game again. (Make sure to clean your computer first).

Everyone thumbs down his positive review of Rust banning for nothing!

let me see if i get it, they dont need to prove? because i didn't cheat, and if dont like my face they just can ban me because i use fraps? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EAwSpLOWDxM my video when i was starting to record my gameplays

A video doesn't prove anything. Most hacks do not show up when recording in-game with programs like FRAPS. In fact, they're designed to...and also advertised not to show up when recording. I've seen numerous players banned after swearing up and down they weren't hacking and posting "proof" videos.

The fact that you're claiming you were banned for using fraps is laughable. A majority of players use fraps for in-game recording. If people were banned for fraps, there would be a massive uproar from the community. Sorry, not buying it.

And not to generalize but Brazil is definitely and statistically in the top 5 for hackers.

that is correct

but when you remember that you are buying a license, not the actual game, you can have that license revoked at any time

You should also remember you are also paying for a service. Should you feel that the service is inadequate or declined/revoked (what ever you call it) for an invalid reason (No matter what they put in their service agreements) you should be able to pursue legal actions.
Though in 99,99% of the cases the person in question did actually cheat and they could just decline any requests regarding "proof". Needless to say that if the cheater would decide to take legal actions there is no way he would win the case.
Legit players would stand a chance but will never ever (I assume) have any reasons to take legal actions.

Man, Garry should make a coffee-table book that includes all the stupid stuff hackers say when they get caught. These threads are hilarious.

I really like the last one.... He has no clue what he is talking about and the reasoning is flawed at best.... XD

Just for the record, no TOS is above the law.

The terms of service says that they can take away your games for whatever reason they would like to, and to buy anything on Steam you have to accept that TOS.

I banned you from the server i admin 2 weeks ago for speedhacking..

You have a fresh account with low number of friends and games that went on sale for 3$..
Get mad.

You agreed to their terms of conditions, which states that they may ban you for whatever reason. Your case would never stand up in a court of law, which would cost you more to take to court than to just get a new steam account and buy rust again.

Now for why you got banned, here is how VAC works. Your computer runs exe files which contain code that link to DLL files, this is possibly the DLL's provided by the Unity engine. Modification of DLL's is possible and this is how hacks are created. VAC scans the EXE and DLL files on your computer for any modifications. No legit program would modify a DLL or EXE so you have either installed a hack, or have a virus that installed it for you (unlikely).

Stop playing dumb and go back to using the + / - keys just for the calculator app ;)

Grow up and accept that you are not some mighty "hacker" that will escape from the VAC ban . Buy the game again and eventually if u cheat AGAIN just as I said before , buy the game again , at least the good thing from you cheaters is that you help Rust grow by buying it again after u get banned .

reading all the hacker justice is the balm that heals the tortured soul. im okay with dying in the game because of hackers getting ban-hammered.

just want to ask a question here, in a different treath someon mentioned that hacker could aktually bruteforce the doorcode, the question is if that is even possible, depending of 20sec/ech code you would need 55,5h for that but i think with keybord makro you could be faster does someone know if makros ban you as well?

you're asking if you're allowed to do this? no...you cannot brute force door codes. you will be banned. why is this a question.

VALVe don't have to give you a reason after banning you.
Been through quite a few accounts, none of the times have they given a reason.
