    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.

    The following will not trigger a VAC ban:

    -Using chat programs like X-Fire
    -System hardware configurations
    -Updated system drivers, such as video card drivers

    Use only trusted machines to play on VAC-Secured servers - if you are not sure whether or not the machine you are using to connect to Steam may have cheats installed, do not play on VAC-Secured servers.

    Use caution when installing any game modifications, such as scripts or custom skins. Only download custom content from trusted sources. Hackers sometimes maliciously disguise their cheats to cause others to get banned.
    What this means for everyone is that it scans your computer for cheats, illegal third-party programs, or modifications to a game (mods to a game's core, for instance), and bans players who use them permanently.

    What this means for you is that you had illegal third-party programs, cheats, or something that provides an unfair advantage over another. VAC bans are across all VAC enabled games, and VAC will ban you permanently, without compromise, and without the ability to appeal for said ban being lifted. Only MWF2 pertains only to MWF2- not Black Ops. Your VAC ban on Black Ops transfers to every game on that account.

    What that means for us is "Forgot Password" means "Yeah, that account is VAC banned and I'm trying to use lengthy posts and crappy excuses to avoid that ban transferring to other accounts."

    We've banned people before on IBIS for cheating, or utilizing hacks on past accounts. I don't see you as an exception to this precedent.

    EDIT-

    Additionally this means that no matter how many people "report" you, unless the VAC system catches you red handed, you won't be banned. It's truly as simple as that.
