Ant, there is no question about it that being vacced hurts your credibility even if you never hacked on our servers. If I didn't say it, someone else would have pointed it out.
We will judge whatever evidence you have based on its merits and not because you are vacced. But these issues become a matter of reputation, and for every possible cheater that we unban due to having a 1% chance of being legit, we also risk other players leaving because they felt it was clearly hacking.
I would think that the amount of hackers I've reported and demo'd would of nullified said previous VAC ban, I could of simply got a new account as it happened so long ago, however I figured that my playskill, as well as being a positive asset to whatever community I decided to play with, would again - of made my opinion worth more than a simple VAC ban but I suppose I was wrong.
I don't see how this demo proves the gentleman was hacking, I was under the impression that it was innocent until proven guilty as far as hacking goes - and these demos will put some doubt if he is or not, I was merely making the statement (as I did in the other similar incident) that I don't feel there is enough evidence to issue a permanent ban. Obviously it's up to you, and whoever else in the end, however I still don't feel the mudslinging was called for regardless. I've attempted to make posts defending or decrying people accused of hacking fluid, and logical - if someone disagrees I'd be more than happy to further elaborate how a twitch =/= hack. But, as I said - the shot at my credibility really doesn't add anything to this thread, and tbh comes off quite a bit ridiculous after all the comments/demos I've uploaded on here against hackers.
