There I was imagining Dragon on Inferno.

That was probably my best game of Counter Strike ever. I don't know if it was luck or skill, I assume it was pure luck that day (could never do that again).

Wouldn't mind playing again, but for the next while it really is a no go, and from next year it will get crazy busy, so my days off playing is probably over for good.

Indeed. Interested in this Trust Factor. Essentially it will MM based on the player with the lowest trust factor, which means if we play with Wolf (who gets reported every match....by us :p) then we will always MM with dodgy dudes.

Prime solved nothing, this is a new mechanism to 'correct' Prime. I read the notes on Trust Factor, in time the trolls will devalue your trust by simple reporting. This may improve some things, but it hurdles MM. Valve wants people to buy more CS:GO to increase trade in the marketplace. See how many new accounts are created vs banned accounts per month. Yesterday, the Global game, one player had sure silent aim that I reviewed. These are Globals, man, not too mention that they behaved like arseholes with in-game chat. Prime, Trust Factor... these guys will stay. Then we played against a player with close to 3000hrs, walling like a champ, he is still there and will stay there. One variant to Trust Factor is game hours. Valve will never take anti-cheating too seriously, even those lackluster devs at Blue Hole is doing much better at prevention than Valve. Valve is handing out another cure to temporarily cure the dwindling interest in the game.

Valve bans, especially CSGO seems to come in huge waves. But they are indeed doing something, and we should also do our overwatch part, if everyone did one a day it would be amazing. Not perfect at all, but it would make Valves job much easier and quicker to ban players

Just remember that the Trust Factor will entrench hackers which hacked their way to the top, they are popular, have game hours, have rank, have friends and are actively trading. It may cure the influx of 'new' hackers, but like Prime it keep the favourites around. I have never hacked, but I have been reported in-game, suspected by Overwatch 3 times and my account have been reported directly on my Steam profile.

There is a good reason why some 'pro' players, local and international, never pitch up at LAN competitions, but wreck it online.

The wave is monthly, 1/3 of all monthly purchased accounts are VAC banned, you can see it on the Steamdb reports, but more accounts are bought when the game is on promotion, and many promotional purchases are traded off on G2A, Kinguin, CDKeys, etc. throughout.

Just on a side note, the pick-up organisations have better, and more accurate, anti-cheating than the MM servers.
 
This new MM system is open for exploit in my opinion. I foresee lots of abuse. At the moment I can only assume number of reports etc play a huge factor.
