Banned For A 'cheating Infraction'

Recommended Posts

After much googling, apparently Mana's Super Awesome Trade Server is a lotus server so, as requested by your sticky, a screenshot of my console after ban:

And my steamid:

STEAM_0:1:37743619

Unless using the new heavy weapon is cheating, I haven't done anything wrong.

I can't find this ban on the ban system. I'm not sure about the trade server though. There might be a different system for that.

This is usually affiliated with SourceMod Anti-Cheat, so I think the system may have done it automatically. Do you have any altered ConVars or unusual settings enabled?

Also, just a weird guess, I'm probably 100% wrong, but whatever you're using for MicSpam (obviously displayed in your console screenshot) may have had something to do with it. I know on most Lotus servers things like that are outright prevented, not sure about Mana's Trade Server Though, it might be handled differently.

Sorry for the RANDOM GUESS post but I figure I'd chime in with some theories until someone who knows the answers / Mana takes a look.

That is a SMAC disconnect message. Simple answer: don't cheat. Especially not with cheats bad enough to get caught by SMAC.

I have not, nor have I ever used any cheats in TF2. I don't micspam either. I don't even use the mic normally. I do get a lot of sound errors when playing TF2 though...

As for weird convars, probably, I disabled pretty much every graphics option ever because my computer sucks.

Edit: Theory: I played for hours without a ban or anythin', until I pulled out the Huo Long Heatmaker and repeatedly dropped in and killed a group of people; so maybe the new Heavy minigun confuses the fuck out of the anticheat, since TF2 doesn't make any distinction between kills with it's fire and with it's bullets, it thinks I'm magically turning around all the time and killing everyone.

If that were the case, these bans would be more widespread.

Yeah, I doubt the minigun is the problem.

If it's SMAC then you will have a log of why .I have two servers that use SMAC and if it sees something it will log it .Even if it dont kick then it will still show what it thought might be some one cheating.It would look like this in the log "08/08/2012 - 16:57:40: [smac_commands.smx] littlehelper43 (ID: STEAM_0:1:47524858 | IP: 184.6.184.73) was kicked for command spamming: spec_mode "
