Title: [UNBANNED] [CS]Unban Request - Cepheus (Public) [Judge: Konvict]
Post by: Cepheus on March 29, 2015, 10:21:10 pm
Name: Cepheus
SteamID: STEAM_0:0:1058634612
Reason: Have just been playing in Public for an hour. And I seemed suspicious to Max breaker so he decided to ban me without spectating me. Just because I thought that he might be at a place and I was aiming at 'that' place, he thought that I was cheating. Mate it was just pure logic that you are going to be camping there..
Date & Time: 29/03/15 - 22:20 (UK Time)
Server: Public
Have you been banned before: No
Screenshot URL (Use tinypic.com): (http://i59.tinypic.com/2hdqwi0.jpg)
Other: Thanks

Please remember that Admins are only required to keep the demo for a duration of 7 days. After that they are not obliged to keep it any longer. You will also need to upload the automatic screenshot made just before the ban was enforced. You can find this screenshot in your cstrike folder, under the format '[mapname]00*'. Example: de_dust2001. You should attach this immediately in your unban request as it will help you and ourselves in determining the case more effectively.

If you have used cheats, you should admit it in your first post. If you admit you have used any program or setting in order to gain advantage over others, your ban length might be softened and your request will be reviewed faster.[/roundframe]

1. Your IP is clearly shown in the image.
2.Not that SS , the SS taken automatically when banned , should be located in Cstrike folder named after the map you had been banned in.

Leave the IP now. For some reason, the automated screenshot in the cstrike folder is plain black. But this still does the job.
Thanks.

How does this do the job?
It's just a SS of your banned info , we can just check that in the banlist.
Oh and SS bugged , what a coincidence ;).

I thought that the automated SS shows what I showed above. Anyway, I don't have any other screenshot to provide you with. As you said, the SS might of glitched.

I said it to quickly explain the situation that was going on. But the demo will explain much thoroughly. I gave him, and his teammate a few wall-bangs with an M4 but apparently that's cheating. Let's see his point of view.

If your ban is relating to cheating, you must upload the automatic screenshot made by the ban system within 24h. You can find this in your cstrike folder, under the format '[mapname]00*'. For example 'de_dust2001'. We will not accept any form of excuse should you not provide it. (CS Only).

Rules are rules though. :)

Let's not kid ourselves, Nikolai/Nikolay was a former HAA and my clan member that was a decent player. Doubt he's cheating therefore Max, you better deliver good evidence 8) 8) 8)

Well to be fair, you have to upload the screenshot as well. Black screen would be a cause of stuff that happens like vsync causing a difference between output of monitor and cs.
It is highly, highly unlikely for cs to have a black screenshot output. Just like it is highly unlikely for DNA tests to fail, however the chances that it fails are so small that even while it is not 100% accurate, it is still used in court. For the same reason we use the screenshot method provided by counter-strike.
Therefore emperors have to agree that we ignore protocol for this unban request if the demo is not sufficient, because you are a known player here.

I haven't had a single intention or thought going through my mind to cheat in here or anywhere. Plus if that screenshot didn't turn black for some reason, I wouldn't had a problem uploading it. It is the only screenshot in my cstrike folder and YES it was the map 'de_train'. You can see that the date/time created and date/time modified of the image are the same. They would be different if I tried to edit it with 'Paint' for example to make it plain black.

Nah mate, it wasn't paint, its Snipping Tool. I just quickly scribbled around the demos from other servers. It had the names of their servers so I didn't want to publicize them  :P It's much better now haha.

am not accusing you ,but if am not wrong the file is JPEG not a bitmap, and you were banned at 21:13
Title: Re: [CS 1.6] Unban Request - Public server
Post by: BuddyTrollsten on March 30, 2015, 03:32:17 pm
Screenshot was taken 60 minutes after the ban , it's enough time to cover things up.
Also , why did you not upload the screenshot of the folder before? The one you have in your actual topic is completely pointless , we can check what time you were banned and all that using banlist , but we can't see what happened to the image unless you upload it.
I feel like you're covering things up , date modified - 22:13
According to the banlist your ban time was at  : Invoked on - 29.03.2015 - 21:13:07
Date Modified : 22:13.
Could have been timezones but seems like both are UK.

@X-KilleR
IMG is a bitmap file when taken during ban.

I dont know about the format of the image but I am most certain that I was banned at 22:13 (UK Time) (10:13) Since straight away after the ban I have completed this unban request.

I don't know how there is a time difference. But i am not covering things up. It could be a timezone difference.

I just checked the banlist and you were banned at 21:13, by looking at the screenshot date it shows 22:13, you created your own ss, provide the original ss there must be one it's always there, i think the rules are very clear, provide the screenshot otherwise you will be banned.

I don't know how to point this out more clearly.... I didn't even know that a player gets a automatic SS after being banned because I wasn't active on the forum. So how would I think of making my own SS. Now that I have read the rules, and I know what a automatic SS is meant to look like, I DO know that a screenshot is required, however, I do NOT have a screenshot that displays my gameplay. Of course if I had it I would post it directly. YES, there is a screenshot, I have showed you that it's just a plain black image for a unknown reason. I don't see what you can do with a black SS. What can I do in this case if its the plugins fault? I didn't even think of creating myself a fake SS until now. I didn't know that it takes a SS when getting banned.

So you are saying that I have done a random screenshot just one hour later of the ban and have tried to get it on the same minute of the ban but couldn't get it on the same hour? That is pointless and I don't see a logic in doing that.

stop spamming about screenshot please. thi is not the 1st time we got an issue with the damn ss

now, can we watch a demo of him cheating ¿? as we always did ¿? or are u gonna keep banned a regular steam player just coz the damn ss ¿?

Post by: Fisu on March 31, 2015, 11:04:57 am
"He's an old member" "I Played with him in clan" "I dont think he cheats"

Yea thanks, that much we all pretty freaking know. I personally would of never thought of him cheating either, but I still find this screenshot bug funny. ANYHOW Max should uploud the demo, there is a freaking reason we STILL RECORD CHEATERS. Therefore the screenshot is not that much needed if he would post the demo.

I am sure about one thing, it might not have screenshoted the gameplay, but it had to screenshot something as the command is in the bancommand, there's no way it could not have not screenshoted anything..... So it's still fishy for me. But that's nothing new im fishu.. (THAT RHYME)

+ It's unfair, if you watch all other unban request, you see a few guys here telling them "lying idiots" just because they couldent" Find the screenshot", plus cepheus can be the oldest guy here it still doesn't mean he doesnt cheat, right? Even pro players were banned....

Hopefully the demo shows what we all think we know about cep, that he's clean.

:) Good Luck boi.


BTW I've got one more question: Is it usual to have a transparent console? How can I do that? xD

Ugh.
This is clearly non sense that u guys are keeping this shit slowed down for a screenshot.
Some weird bug happened while screenshot was made and there is nothing u can do about it.
I used to have this before in my 1.6 days that my screenshots made were black. After a reinstall it was fixed.
Now to the timestamp "issue" which has no issue at all.

Proof taken from a different unban request:
http://www.ambrosia-servers.eu/community/index.php?topic=31406.0 (http://www.ambrosia-servers.eu/community/index.php?topic=31406.0)

Tinypic makes the pictures in JPEG since this is smaller in size and that means they can have more screenshots or pictures on their servers to transfer. It is less time consuming.
The picture from cep is BMP in the map but uploading it in tinypic changes the extension.

About the time stamps, amxbans is probably set on summer time 8)
Anyways, it's a known issue that the time differs an hour. Don't bother too much. Focus on demo for the 3th time

This request was done on "March 29, 2015" , which means more than 48 hours have already been passed. Admin failed to provide the demo when more than enough time was in his disposal to do so.

UNBANNED
