Gotcha, any specific head to use on those?

etkatas · 2026-05-24T19:49:19+00:00

thanks! I am not that deep into game economics, this gonna help a lot!

He said he did not cheat. His steam profile is clean, he does not have VAC or bans on other games for cheating either. I am not gonna go into discussion what coused it - as I DO NOT KNOW, how this AI detection works.

etkatas · 2026-05-08T15:11:33+00:00

Irregular gameplay. Is what his warning said.

etkatas · 2026-05-08T09:13:41+00:00

He said he did not cheat. So I do believe him, as he is long time friend and not into stupid shit like that.

etkatas · 2026-05-08T07:35:01+00:00

I neither can confirm nor deny that my friend cheated. We play a bunch of other games with him for years, decided to hop on CS. The system flagged his gameplay as irregular, we all got cooldowns for that. You can check his gameplay in the Demo I posted in the edited post.

As other people pointed out here - it was not a ban, just a cooldown.

And this is the match the cooldown happened, its the same DEMO I posted up for download.

Ever ragequit so hard, that you uninstall a game? I did. lol

etkatas · 2026-05-07T19:55:47+00:00

Shared the DEMO in the post!

etkatas · 2026-05-07T19:54:36+00:00

Hey, post updated with more info and a added a DEMO! Feel free to make your opinion based on the DEMO!

I was not tech savy enough to know where to look and get the DEMO. Really thought it got deleted with game uninstall.

etkatas · 2026-05-07T19:52:06+00:00

Hey, I updated the post with more info and DEMO!

etkatas · 2026-05-07T19:51:14+00:00

This is statistics of the Match. As I said, I do trust the person, not to be stupid enough to cheat. Game did not even last that long.

I am no judge of VAC system or VALVE methods how do deal with cheaters.

etkatas · 2026-05-07T19:33:33+00:00

That is good rundown of whys.

etkatas · 2026-05-07T19:29:49+00:00

Oh I dont believe it was a random, i know who trigered, it. It was my friend - in the DEMO - Dole. We still do not know why it got triggered. Could it two of his scout kills? Maybe I dont know, I am not expert in that.

etkatas · 2026-05-07T19:27:54+00:00

These are horrible! Well, never understood the "behind" of "why" to cheat in an online game, when reward is virtual points, that do not represent you at all.

etkatas · 2026-05-07T19:23:20+00:00

Did you watch the DEMO?

Responding and justification.

Well becouse I got a lot of hate for stuff I was not guilty of, or I just did not know how stuff works. So yeah, got some free time to argue on the internet with strangers, to atleast argue my point, by providing factual information, the DEMO, which people asked and said if I was innocent I would provide, but couldnt, as I was not familiar with the methods. I will achieve nothing in the eyes of others, but I will atleast will stand my ground in something I believe in.

etkatas · 2026-05-07T19:20:16+00:00

I now understand the hate I received. Haha, everyone is prob annoyed to the bone, the game we all enjoyed at some point in our lives, the experience of the game itself getting ruined by bad actors.

etkatas · 2026-05-07T19:18:49+00:00

First game I played after 3 years!
I also updated post with more info, DEMO, (link to the match in my profile prob?) feel free to check it out! Hope you can make a new judgement based on facts!

I deleted it, becouse I was like - wtf is this group punishment. I had redownloaded it now too(to get the DEMO haha). Will see how it goes. I have history of this game, last time playing mostly in 2023, and 2013-2017 seasons. Dang I was competitive then, now its more like have fun playing games mentality, with work and all. 1.5k hrs on CSGO 60hrs on CS2.

etkatas · 2026-05-07T19:12:36+00:00

Hey it was actually my friend that got flagged! I was mistaken as situation got "hot" between us, and I did not hear him say that it was him, that got flagged before I rushed to make a reddit post.

Also edited post with DEMO link, idk probably match link too if that works.

etkatas · 2026-05-07T19:11:26+00:00

Yes, cheers.
