Anti-Cheat Staff Applications
With kindred stepping down, this time we are looking to trial two more individuals to join the AC staff. Users that have already attempted applying for AC staff can also re-apply.
AC members need to be trustable and have a good sense of morality, as well as being excited by the detective work & the technical aspects of the source engine that comes with demo viewing and cheats and such. It’s also important to have no bias and be respectful of the democratic process on voting.
Please don’t be intimidated to apply, it’s a position that you can really only improve on with real experience.
Check these guidelines for a more in-depth description of the application process. If you don’t fill out the application properly, we will likely deny your application. Promising candidates with an extensive application will be interviewed and welcomed to staff.

Dear diary, today I learned that etf2l admins can ban you for aimbot even if you main pyro, you don’t actually cheat, and they don’t even ask you to upload your demos <3
that’s what a hacker would say
pyro aimbot what da lol zhevor
zhevor you do know that you can get banned for cheating even if you do it outside of ETF2L officials??
It would be interesting to know what evidence is this ban based on if there aren’t demos. But I guess if people can get banned for posting such evidence we’ll never know.
it’s usually lobbies. there are stvs
stv for aimbot detection ?? ??
Wtf with zhevor….seriously.
omg etf2l are illuminati!!! he’s my friend he would never cheat!!!!!!!! post proof or it didnt happen!!!!!!!!!!
same shit everytime
neon: i dunno, a lot of banned people in the last year only played lobbies. maybe arie’s servers have special plugins
Or if someone saw them cheating and reported it to an admin. Sounds the least complicated and possible option
who?
some randoms get banned, no one bats an eye
italians get banned, everyone loses their mind
MLG Scout – Multihack – 0 games played in ETF2L – 0 demos uploaded for review
Mark – Aimbot – 0 games played in ETF2L – 0 demos uploaded for review
Fancy – Aimbot – 1 game played in ETF2L – 0 demos uploaded for review
iamzhevor – Aimbot – 65 games played in ETF2L – ? demos uploaded for review (none recently)
Fucio – Aimbot – 4 games played in ETF2L – 0 demos uploaded for review
Varrah – Multihack – 0 games played in ETF2L – 0 demos uploaded for review
Maybe some of you haven’t been around for too long.
ETF2L has banned some high profile players who got caught cheating in a DM server in the past.
Obviously there is no log or demo to be reviewed in those cases.
Ohh juicy drama
how can zevor get banned for aimbot????? wtf admins?
Zhevor getting banned for being a pyro main? Well that’s new. There must be proof of such deeds.
he could play other class on dm/tf2center/pickup/pub and cheat
Why do people treat maining pyro as a reason for not aimbotting?
if you main pyro, doesn’t mean you would never use cheats. i used cheats tho my main was medic. please, don’t try to look saint.
Not trying to sound like a dick or anything, I’ve played against zhevor more than a few times recently. I have to say, his aimbot is really top quality, it so undetectable that it even misses spun up heavies occasionally.
There must be something in the demos that he submitted that gave it away though, good thing he didn’t get away.
Give them some credit guys. I mean I know they’re filthy cheaters and all but maybe they’re not stupid enough to cheat in officials/scrims or even lobbies? Maybe they cheat on pubs and alts, still deserves a ban but ofc there is no demo…
I don’t understand why people are questioning the bans. The AC team is obviously more tech savvy than the general public, and there’s no incentive for them to ban players unnecessarily and without a solid (heh) base for it.
It’s also counter-intuitive to demand transparency in these cases, because shedding knowledge on the AC process would give the cheaters insight into how to avoid being caught.
dont bother anymore steve we said that 1000 times already
All I want to know was he as smart as Drotalion and Bat and provide adequate comic entertainment to the AC team.
I was just curious, it actually never occurred to me that you could get banned for cheating in a pub or lobby. I agree with it now that I know, but never thought of it.
get good get lmaobox !
Ban Tonmas!

What bothers me most in those situations is not the matter of knowing whether the ban was justified or not (the reason is usually very solid, so no questioning that). No, it is to see this:

All those puny little vultures on the rec post should be ashamed of themselves, even more than the person who fucked up and got banned for it.
Good job, keep it up.
Being on ban post is basically internet walk of shame. Just deal with it.
Coming from someone who only seems to respect strength and aggressivity, this answer does not surprise me.
Banter
Trying to change what cant be changed is pointless thats all im saying. Just look at comments from other ban posts, people still want evidence even though admins already said what they think about it.
FREE BEAVERN
