Declined Jofre Problem?'s Ban appeal

[Jofre Problem?]

Username: Jofre Problem?

What is your type of punishment?
Ban

Where were you banned from? Servers

Who has punished you?
CONSOLE

Why were you punished?
[Anti-Cheat] Aimbot Detected (V)

Why should we revoke your punishment?
Well, I managed to trigger the anti-cheat with a game HUD exploit. Im not sure why the reason was due to "Aimbot", but I assume this is something related:

https://blackwonder.tf/threads/rafalbros-ban-appeal.22060/

TLDR; Anti-cheat banned random people by "Aimbot".
In fact, I have found this exploit around Nov 2020, I decided to try it on some servers to see the results.

=THE EXPLOIT:
The exploit consits on making a custom HUD, with changing the code of "sliders" (those things for changing for exp. volume). Seems to be, that those sliders allows having sv_cheat commands on their values. I could share the HUD code for someone else to test it, but I would like sending it to an admin via DM.

Video Proof:

For some reason, the anti-cheat allowed me this time to make the exploit.
If anyone need more info, please let me know.

I think this will be eventually brought up, so, on panda communitty, there is a ban thread against me:

Accepted - Jofre Problem? - Cheating

I've been suspicious of this guy named "Jofre Problem?" for quite some time now. He connects from South America and due to this has a high ping, but still plays on Panda VSH server frequently regardless of the ping. He always plays as a sniper and every round seems to get the most damage by a...

www.panda-community.com

Main arguments here are that:
- I could see hale through trees
- Knowing everytime his location
Thats why I uploaded this video:

In this video here, is shows that I had invisible "leaves", as well, this is a panda-vsh-server-only exploit (due to his old plugin), that shows the overheal icon everytime around hale, so I managed to make it visible everytime and everywhere with a .vmt $ignorez edit.

Did you appeal the panda ban?

Did you appeal the panda ban?

For appeal to panda, I need to resolve first my issue here, since this ban was the final argument for my ban on there. As well, the reason too why I was banned from other server.

I'd say that you would have been banned regardless, due to you aiming through trees at people lol.

 

[Jofre Problem?]

Yeah, I modded the game so I could see through the trees.

But well, I guess? Dont know, but I dont think they went far as banning someone for modding the game.
But im pretty sure that wouldnt be the first thing to come to their minds, cuz wall-hacking is a more easier thing to believe.

..what is a wallhack, but a way to see through solid obstacles to gain information other players don't have access to?

Oh yeah, you could put it like that, similar to the "exploit" term. I was meaning more on the definition of using a 3rd party software thing.

It's definitely not the worst kind of cheat you could be using, but this exploit was still giving you a significant advantage and is unfun and unfair to play against. We don't want people doing this.

Our anticheat did correctly pinpoint the exact method you used to hide those models and it definitely warranted a ban, unlike the threads you linked. Your alternate account created immediately afterwards also deserved its ban.


In the end, we have decided not to remove it even with the confidence the system would catch you if you tried to do it again.
For the sake of fairness however, I will edit the ban reason in sourcebans in case it helps you elsewhere.

Huh, alright. I have made those videos just to showcase it, there really wasnt opportunity to use it before, I guess it was unfun to play against the bot. Anyway, the exploit has been reported to Valve and hopefully will get fixed. About my alt account, I created to confirm my suspects about the exploit, the anti-cheat worked inmediatly tho. However, I understand that you to kept the ban cuz I used it on the server. Just to ask, by "hide those models", what do you mean exactly?

Your game is so bare-bones it fails to draw certain models, such as the extremely dense leaves on the trees. A normal player sees the image on the left, you see the image on the right. You have done this intentionally with your mods and/or configs that may or may not be intertwined into your HUD.

Huh, I dont really think I can achieve that on Blackwonder servers, besides the scope removal. I played mainly on the Skyhigh server, because the others one were empty due to my time zone.
