So, I am one of those people who have fallen victim to false VAC Live cooldowns in the past 2 months. I am not referring to the broken update Valve released a couple of weeks ago where people got a permanent VAC ban on their profile (which Valve then unbanned with a subsequent update). I am referring to a wave of false VAC Live cooldowns a chunk of players got shortly before the broken update. If you have no idea what I am referring to, here's an example of an obviously innocent player being banned: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25SPKRtAcNc (there are plenty more of you search online).

I am an innocent player who has never cheated yet I got VAC Live'd 3 times in the span of a month. Completely unbelievable, right? I understand if people are skeptical, but that is literally what happened. I will link my Steam and Leetify profile below so you can check any stats or demos and judge for yourselves.

Anyway, my third cooldown was a 30-day cooldown that is about to expire in 2 days and I just wanted to ask anyone who has also been false VAC Live'd if Valve has finally fixed their VAC Live system or if it's still going wild, banning innocent players left and right?

I am afraid to start playing again and getting a 4th false cooldown. As far as I understand the 4th cooldown is 6 months long. I don't want to risk that, but I want to play again. I have no idea what even comes after that. Permanent ban? Is that even possible with VAC Live?

Thanks for reading!
