So I have been VAC banned...

[TheSniper_CODHUN]

...on my f2p account in just 83 minutes of gameplay. It was my first time having a VAC ban, and I wonder will this get my Main (legit) account banned? I mean, does Steam recognize that it was me and bans that acc when I log in? Sorry if it's the wrong section to post this, tell me if it is.

If you are VAC banned on one game, I don't think Steam would ban your whole main account ..
I've seen others having a VAC ban on one game (or more) and their "Main (legit) account" wasn't banned

I could be wrong though ..

No, it won't. Your main will stay safe.
But, if you get banned on some of Valve's games, you won't be able to play any other(or most of) Valve's game(only on one account).

Okay, thanks

If you get Vac'ed on CSS then you will still be able to play CS:GO, TF2 e.t.c.

No. You can only play CS:GO(which runs on a "different engine"). Any other games which are running the source engine will be banned too. So if you have been vac'ed on CSS you cannot play TF2,HL2M,DoD:S online.

The only one of Valve's games that isn't secured by VAC as far as I'm concerned would be CS;GO, as this is protected by Overwatch, so you still would be banned on TF2, which is protected by VAC.

Some time ago I got Vac'd on Css, while I still could play Vac Servers on TF2. Later I got Vac'ed on TF2 too and gained 2 Vac Bans.
WAT. different engine? WAT. So you're saying, CS:GO is made in Source 2? *^*! That's amazing man. KAcer works for VALVe.

CS:GO is protected by vac but also overwatch.

No, thats why I quoted the "different engine". The engine name is the same, but it's an advanced, improved one. Jeez talk about overreacting.
As for the ban, I just lol'd cause Team Fotress 2 was a bundled software, later on they made it standalone.

No, I dont think that you'll get banned. Since Valve never ban using IP?
