    You have played Rust on a computer with hacks on it. VAC detected in and put you in line for a ban. It doesn't ban you immediately. So now you can't fly through walls and aimbot people anymore. One more hacker down. Bye.

    (Oh and dont come back with, "I didn't hack", its like Michael Jackson saying he didn't touch the children, we all know the truth).

    If the official support can't/won't help you, how are you expecting regular users to be able to do it?

    You were obviously cheating and made up some cock and bull story.

    Stop wasting everyone's time.

    Valve does not disclose what was found in regards to a VAC Ban. This helps lessen/prevent the chance of "hackers" immediately making changes to their "hacks" in an attempt to evade/fool VAC. Not trying to say you in fact used hacks/cheats, just saying the most likely reason why you were not told.

    Facepunch has no authority with regards to VAC. They can't tell you why you were banned because VAC is out of their jurisdiction. Even if they did know they most likely would not make it public for the same reason as Valve.

    Well look what I have found:

    I couldn't find any Rust related dirt on him but it seems that "Mr.Sparkles" which is his Steam name has 373 hours in WarZ and has a hack related post on a forum about it. Naughty you. So that makes the following a lie right?

    FYI vac also bans off of reports from 3rd pary sites were butt hurt 12 year olds rant about how they got pwned, been going on for years and there not going to stop anytime soon. MW2 community started this trend. Also never make an account on any site like ownedcore or MPGH bc if your user name matches its another flag. Lets not pretend like vac actually does the detecting on its own every body in anti cheat communities knows it doesn't and theres a reason why other games make there own as well. If it detected it it would be automatic just like in WoW or any other game that uses a real anti cheat. The reason VAC takes so long is bc it matches Algorithms that match a cheating behavior, IE supersonic key presses and such or matching computing speed where a human should be the one in control, all other forms such as exploits and actual VAC bypassing injection will only be reported by other players. The reason 90% of vac bans are validated is bc of the 3rd party reporting sites, this is also why they don't want to tell you how, bc they don't know, bc VAC is automated. And before you guys come back stating info that steam gives you ..... of course they will never tell you the truth why would they want you knowing how it It internally works? And ask yourself how it detects boosting in MW games then ? there is no modification to the .DLL or executable files to do that, yet boosters are banned daily. Same as in DOTA2, and no automated system would ever be able to figure these things out ever. Steam doesn't want you to know they employ the same tactics Blizzard has for years, which is flag you and then investigate you ( which was also a key point why Blizzard vs Bossland suit swayed and Bossland won the case). There are reasons reputable anti-cheat Devs also do offer a chance for them to look into your case further bc auto flagging is very very un-accurate at times and can throw a false positive just like an Anti Virus program can. The problem is that everyone just follows like sheep to the call of steam assuring you that it works flawlessly, even tho there the worst ranked anti cheat save a couple ( punkbuster is tied bc it uses the system). But so long as so many people are sure it works they wont fix it and do a better job which could result in faster bans and extend cheat development times so they have to charge more to discourage people from buying them in the first place. Im not on the cheaters side but I have always known that VAC needed a rework and no one looks past there nose on the subject.

    If there's really any other method besides .dll or .exe modifications to cheat, please inform me, because I'm pretty sure that you are withering in your own ignorance, creating assumptions from the back of your ass.



    Oh look a very reputable person

    Cant say it isn't yours.

    Also never make an account on any site like ownedcore or MPGH bc if your user name matches its another flag.
    I didn't even need to paste a picture, you pretty much mentioned MPGH too

    as for me:

    Your password is 1992 days old, and has therefore expired.

    mpgh.net isnt just all about hacking, I learn to mod there.. using blender and exporting and importing the mods that I made.. all visual weapon and armor mods.. replacing ingame weapons with ones I created but keep the same exact stats...

    so using MPGH.net is a bad example, Artificialaiming would of been better...

    You are massively ignorant as to how VAC works. First off, VAC doesn't ban people simply for joining booster lobbies. There are cheats specifically designed for boosting that inject code into the game that can get you banned and I'm going to go out on a limb here...do you suppose that no one boosting ever used hacks in MW2 as well? Or perhaps people who got VAC banned just claimed they got vac banned for joining a boosting lobby? Because a cheater would never lie right? Do you know from personal experience? Were you "unfairly" banned by vac?

    It is confirmed that if a user generates enough cheat reports from report violation on their community profile - vac will scan them earlier and more aggressively (vac doesn't scan everyone, it scans everyone over time - hence why some people last a bit longer than others)

    I'd search you the post on SPUF by a valve employee but that'd require effort and personally I don't care about you

    just NO, and DOUBLE NO
    learn how vac works before throwing out false informations...pathetic


    Important:

    All VAC bans are permanent - Valve has a zero-tolerance policy for cheating and will not lift VAC bans under any circumstances.

    What is VAC?

    If a user connects to a VAC-Secured server from a computer with identifiable cheats installed, the VAC system will ban the user from playing on VAC-Secured servers in the future.

    While server admins may choose to ban specific players, server admins cannot VAC ban players. The VAC system is automated - contacting Steam Support to report cheaters is not necessary, nor will Steam Support act on any information provided.

    The VAC system reliably detects cheats using their cheat signatures. Any third-party modification to a game designed to give one player an advantage over another is classified as a cheat or hack and will trigger a VAC ban. This includes modifications to a game's core executable files and dynamic link libraries.

    Note:

    VAC does not ban based on reports. Such data is only used for tracking and statistics purposes.
    It is confirmed that if a user generates enough cheat reports from report violation on their community profile - vac will scan them earlier and more aggressively (vac doesn't scan everyone, it scans everyone over time - hence why some people last a bit longer than others)

    I laugh at how me wanting to suggest that vac needs improvments causes such a defense..... what is the point you don't want hackers banned faster? and yeah I do know how it works you kids, which you know who you are are just blowing out your ass with no real come back on how it really works bc you don't know and will never know. And also if they don't care about the profiles listed there then why even bring them up ? and why ignore when I asked about your profile used to check ? exactly theres no point and no boosters aren't all cheating theres even ones streaming in other games where they don't care morons, they boost bc there good and make money off of it from the people who suck. And no that's not cheating with .DLL's or modified exe's either but you still get banned for it on certain games from vac <-- fact google it. and plz do your research and read between the lines before you assume anything, for instance with out ever going to those forums or investigating yourself how would you ever know what it looks like and whats going on and how far the cheating community has come? the devs have accounts there too.... they cheating as well ? lmfao what do you think spies are on those forums? why do you think some have made it to where you cant even view there forums without buying there hack ?...... its to hide there info on how things work from prying eyes and to keep there money coming in. also MPGH???? yeah that's an open forum and almost all of them key log or get caught fast ( no surprise obviously) but they do relay info there that can help in what the next new bypass for VAC will be, tho usually old info. I would like to add hating on someone who is mentioning ways to improve the current VAC system ???? what was the point? if im on your side about cheaters ? hmm doesn't make since almost like little kids don't read so good, but then want to act like a interwebz badass who says things like "your wrong period" and that's it no real way to back it. Do yourself a favor get on the inside like the devs of numerous games see how they work then see how far off you were. Education and knowledge is the only way forward , not ignorance to follow the line bc you were told too.

    no shit kuro you forget how to read as well ?

    Edited:

    these forums and like the kids in game are a damn joke, no wonder your too busy playing a game instead of enhancing your lives you cant even read simple damn text. at what part did I suggest that they are false? the part where ( which is real) theres a site that has people manually report and that vac does nothing with it but the valve employees do ? now how in the hell do you get that im supporting anything out of even that? or how about the fact that once again you people just cant go do some research ? that's right reach out of your little world and research anti cheat detection in a whole not just steams wanky ass vac that takes to damn long, do that then come back with fact plz or just blow it out your ass kidos. also if it wasn't then why in the hell is garrys own team wanting to develop there own like every other game dev team that wanted to succeded and not be overrun by hacks?

    How come not one of you can answer any questions posted?

    Oh and Kuro why do I find your username posted on some paid sites atm ? does this mean we should flame you next ? oh wait no bc it doesn't matter bc its just a username in general .... jesus the IQ of this next gen is redundant. Im out wollow in your ignorance. ( notice I didn't say stupid or dumb but ignorance..... go look up the definition).
