VAC Bans
January 24, 2013
Following tradition established last summer, any player with a VAC ban affecting Team Fortress 2 will receive a league ban, regardless of circumstances of the VAC ban. As such, these players are now banned from all ETF2L competitions:
cho – 1 year (Alt: choey)
fragtex – 1 year
Yarzz – 1 year (Alt: Shaft)
rufy – 1 year
boomeh – 11 months*
*boomeh reported his own VAC ban to admins in December
All of these players’ Season 14 matches have been changed to a default loss. Replaying is possible only if the opponent agrees.
Any attempt to circumvent a ban will result in extended bans on all accounts associated with you. Don’t do it.
haha und ich hab dir gesagt alles aber nicht x22
pretty lame
ryb in pieces boomeh :(
not sure why it needs a message on the newsboard either, players have been banned for having vac bans on their account before
someone in the etf2l staff likes denouncing people huh?
still, i dont know what this changes. they come back after a year and are still vac banned, so it doesn’t make a change now nor in a year
We announce all league bans as newsposts, no matter the reason.
Some of these players are still active and have alternate accounts. If they continue to play on any other account after this point, that account will get banned and their bans will be extended.
The newspost also serves as a warning to anyone who knows these players to avoid enlisting them as teammates until their bans expire.
And we do, in fact, like to denounce cheaters.
JOSH!!!!
So, how many times does this make for boomeh? 4?
still pretty lame for a league with good reputation
Seems pretty fair to me. If they don’t want to be named on the front page, don’t hack in the first place.
ETF2L laying the smack down on a collection of schmucks. I approve.
gg
RUFY <3
noobs à chier
hahahhaha cho sorry all that shit you talked, and you the one hacking :D peace out brother
all these dumb kids
boomeh reporting his own vac ban, such a nice guy
fragtex? seriously?
To be honest with you if someone ever tries to cheat they should be perma banned. I don’t care about what ever you say, you cheated? Get out of online gaming forever!
It’s pretty hard for me to understand why there are such stupid short bans on the primary tf2 eu league!
i guess some people never learn
How many times has boomeh been caught cheating now?
does it never get to the point where he just gets a perma ban
Fun fact: As we know Tarkus and Matnun were caught using x22 using AnAkIn’s screenshot exploit. Less than a month later VAC manages to catch nearly every major cheat provider.
Yet Tarkus & Matnun do not have VAC bans. AnAkIn saved them :)
AnAkIn mr nice guy
Good Guy Anakin
I don’t understand how you can say anakin “saved” them from a VAC ban, the VAC system doesn’t just let you off because you’re banned from etf2l, if they’re accounts were flagged in the VAC system they would be banned just like every body else did, it was the cheat client that was undetectable, anakin didn’t save them from a vac ban, x22 did.
so maybe you should be thanking x22 for having a undetectable VAC client
