Counter Strike 2 VAC Party Ban Wrongly Applied, Losing Rank and Points on Steam

September 19, 2025 9:02 AM27

I play Counter Strike 2 on Steam, and my username is ka*k**. Over the past two weeks, I have been banned twice without any warning or justification. The error message states: “You played in a party with someone irregularly flagged by VAC.”

The first ban lasted 20 hours, and the second lasted 7 days. As a result, my Elite points dropped from about 13,000 to 9,000, and my level fell from 25 to 18. I am now concerned that if this continues, I will lose even more rank and progress.

I have never used cheats or third-party programs. Since it is impossible for me to know who is cheating, I removed nearly 80 people from my friend list last week. However, I still encountered the same problem afterward. I cannot determine in which match or with which players this occurred.

I reported the issue to Steam Support, but I only received an automated response and no actual solution. These bans are completely beyond my control, and I believe I am not at fault.

I request that my ban be lifted and that my lost points and levels be restored. I kindly ask that my grievance be resolved urgently.
