-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Screenshots would be very useful for identifying people who are using texture/material hacks such as neon skins or partially transparent walls. Most of the time, people use just material hacks because VAC will never ban them for using such things. If a hack was designed to report back false screenshots, eventually VAC would detect such a thing and ban people for it. If the previously "legal cheat" using people don't want to get VAC banned, they would not use those fake screenshot tools, which would make it easier for server administrators to identify people using such cheats.
