Nah, the clients could rejoin straight away without needing to reboot steam or anything. VAC is enabled on our servers, so if they would be VAC banned they wouldn't be able to rejoin. And to be honest I don't think any of them would use illegal accounts.

I've seen groups of players get this at intervals, just mostly coincidence I think although I did take the time to extract and plot these from my server logs once and there was at least one time (a year ago or so) when I saw a lot of players getting it regardless of their ticket age - Valve fixed something then. I would suspect that IF there was suddenly a group of players that were getting kicked with a real piracy notice that it would indicate that VAC was doing its job. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Saint K."
