Wow, multiple Vac bans and still cheating?
Just this statement from TM's first post "it was only in the last 2 weeks that the person who gave to me told how to use without getting vacced i tried it in 2 pugs and a pub and didnt think it was that great in the end i got vacced"
Sorry, cant see any truth in that post, except that you got vac banned!
Edit: Forgot to add one more thing... LET THE WITCH HUNT BEGIN!
We don't know the extent of Trademark's use of cheat programs and whether they were regulated to pugs, scrims, and pubs or if they were used in actual matches. Neither is ok.
What we do know is Trademark has multiple VAC bans across multiple steam accounts (at least 2 that I'm aware of).
We also know that one of his teammates sent me a screenshot of a player using chams (Trademark's admitted cheat) over a month ago. While admittedly the screenshot was a stock photo from a defunct hack, it points to an awareness that this sort of behavior was happening either within the team or at least within the community. That or it's just HIGHLY coincidental that he shows me that screenshot and a month later a teammate gets VAC banned and admits to using that very cheat or one similar to it.
Although Trademark and I have butted heads in the past, I still want to treat him fairly and consistently with what has been done in the past and with personal feelings aside. This situation warrants the same sanctions levied against Evilbot when he was found cheating. Trademark will be banned from participation in the next season of the NSL and allowed to return under the stipulation that he streams all his matches.
The NSL values and desires fair play. We will do everything possible to protect that so that everyone who participates can enjoy the game. If you're someone who cheats or are helping others to cheat, you're not a "good guy". You're a scumbag and you weaken our community.
