[Discussion] Bans and what we know

Thanks, as I'm sure that initial warning wave that went out with the first hud did quite a lot of ggpk modification amongst other thigns

No, that initial warning wave was likely a direct detection by their anti-cheat. It hasn't been activated since then as far a we can tell... plus we're all using the limited user method anyways. There are probably detection vectors that it won't prevent against, but windows itself is a great line of defense.

Oh that's interesting, as I recall there was the warning wave, and then maybe like 5 months later I knew someone who was still using it got banned, but maybe he was botting or rmting as well

Does anyone know if they ban in waves or soon after detected ? I dropped a hh in ssf and kind of thinking stopping to use third party. Is it useless as if they flagged they will ban some time later anyway ?

Or other way of asking. Does anyone know of a case where someone was banned weeks after he stopped using third party

I think significantly delayed bans are usually due to RMT and not third party applications. Detection is a game of cat and mouse though, so there is nothing saying this won't change or hell... even already changed. Using ANY third party program can result in a ban and each have their own level of risk. If you are scared of losing your account, the safest bet is to always play vanilla.
