VAC bans people in waves (months apart), and not when the cheat gets detected. That being said, the more information/happening you have on the client side, the more the anticheat system will lose against the cheaters....it's simple is that.

On top of that, I doubt many cheats have been reported and I can't picture Valve employees going out of their way to hunt for them.

That's really not convincing, the most known cheat is still working to this day and has been reported probably tens of times..

This guy seems to have a clue and says that it's up to the devs to 'actively monitor public cheating sites for cheats that they can put in their database.'

So is this all about devs not doing what needs to be done, or is it something else, I'm still wondering.

For QuakeLive its mostly the devs that either dont bother or dont have the ability to deal with the problem. But VAC in general like said above bans in waves months apart, and it seems to mostly deal with publicly available cheats. Valve also makes good money if cheaters keep buying new keys, so they dont really have any reason to try harder really.
Dont forget the cheat devs will normally always be 1 or 2 steps ahead of something like VAC. This simple anticheat stuff cant be too intrusive on someones pc due to privacy issues and all that, so its practically a lost battle.
Hence why I quit playing QL a year and a half ago or smt, its been a good decision :>

This is a very informative post, thanks for sharing.

So you think that Valve ignores any input coming from this :
https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.p...869#report

if it's not for one of their games? That's annoying, they don't mention that anywhere. But it could be true, yeah. It probably is, actually. We haven't seen too many VAC banned players for QL. Apparently the upload process for devs is horrible too.

No idea, I'm a level 0 Steam newb (can't even log in on this link). I assume he's right, yeah.

Apparently the upload process for devs is horrible too.

Interesting. Could you say more about that?

About submitting cheats :

<@sponge-> i need a burner pc, this crappy python script, and it took like 20 runs to get it to pick it up and submit, and you have to leave it on for like 20 minutes and there's no progress that its even doing anything

Alright, it sounds annoying, but well..

vac sucks

cheating easy in games

cannot stop it
