How does that work? Do they lose access to all their games or are the banned for CS multiplayer? I hate cheaters, but that would suck to lose all your games!
They lose access to games they cheat in, other games can still be accessed. I'm pretty sure the ban is tied to steam id and not the game because back when I still played CS and CS:S, I used to see a lot of new accounts after sales, basically throw away accounts to check exploits on VAC without risking the "primary" steam account or just kids blatantly trolling through servers knowing ban is coming.
If they did it from their main steam accounts on which they cared about their badges, that's just poetic justice if you ask me. It begs the question, how many of CS sales are actually rebuys? I think there are temp bans but if they last longer than a week,some won't wait for it to expire and buy again under new steam account(s).
Sometimes I get the itch to play but hasn't happened in a while, I don't even
have CS installed now, haven't tried GO yet. One of the reasons I pretty much stopped playing CS and other shooters is cheaters became sophisticated, not always transparent, basically playing normal until they are in a pinch, killing the guy then going low profile again, rinse and repeat.
Slightly OT but I salute the guy for doing this, wish it would happen in other games too.
