Having a years old steam account with a clean record then getting flagged as a cheater must suck when you weren't even trying to cheat. Even if Valve plans to reverse it your account potentially not getting reversed would be a tough pill to swallow during the wait. Shitty situation.
- Reminds me of the early days of PUBG, when they started banning people for using Reshade. Instead of, you know, fixing the blurry, desaturated graphics. They eventually added a sharpening setting but to this day the game still looks dull, which makes enemies hard to spot in a game that heavily relies on being able to see.
  
  I got an MW3 ban for just being part of a modded lobby, this was like 4 years ago and I’m still mad about it
Thank god I hadn't tried it yet for this exact reason. I'd cry if I lost my 20 year old account.
- Bans on CS2 shouldn’t result in the loss of the account
You just know that freelance news writer, Anton Shilov, is really proud of himself for that headline.
