Hey guys.

Some of you having trouble to understand the different ban types. Here is a quick description:

VAC ban:
You have been permanently banned by Valve's Anti-Cheat software VAC. You will get a message like "You are not allowed to join this VAC secured server."

EAC ban:
This is very uncommon. The only game where you could possibly become EAC banned is rust. It bans you from all EAC secured rust servers (95% or more). You will get a message like "EAC: banned"

Developer bans:
Most common is this type of ban. Some developers integrate stat-tracking programs server-sided or spectate you after you have been reported. If you get this message the cheat isn't detected. Just play more clean.

Server admin bans:
This type of ban is limited to one server and does not affect your game account.

Additional: EAC is also tracking stats. It is possible that you get a developer ban for strange behaviour in rust EXP.
Feel free to translate this to russian language.
