Steam ID Blacklist?

Is there a blacklist site for known cheaters with steam ID's?

I'd like to make a quick script to download this list on a regular basis and prevent these players from joining my server.

thanks,

    I don't know about any blacklist but you can check players Steam ID's out here and see if they have any previous VAC bans or Trade Bans. Won't stop inject hacks though.

    By inject do you mean hacks that hook into a client DLL / Library after the player joins and starts playing?

    I dunno if the server / VAC just does a quick MD5 or similar checksum against client files to verify integrity...

    But if so, that's not a very good check and is easily subverted.

    Here's a listing for those vac banned across different games. They may not have NS2, but it wouldn't hurt to pre-emptively ban such scum.

    Better NS2 can check for VAC bans of players caught in any game on player connect. You really shouldn't crawl that site for a list of players. It's never final as bans are not only added, they're continuously removed as well in cases of accidental bans, which do happen and are not extremely rare.

    I'm surprised that UWE doesn't just revoke their NS2 licenses and be done with it.

    Edit:
    Once a cheater, always a cheater.

    After re-thinking, I suppose it is possible to have false positives and not-so obvious stuff triggering a vac ban (such as a graphics inject to make some game prettier, or a cheat to a single-player game that requires internet access for dubious reasons). That said, you can definitely see certain people with multiple bans across several games so it's a good starting point for some server admins I guess.

    As someone who plays without crutches (not weak), totally for blacklisting of known losers.

    I've heard of vac bans for people simply dropping memory hacks into tower defense type games, not exactly something I'd call a major cheat or game ruining lol

    I haven't hacked in years... not that I wouldn't do it again.

    if you're retarded enough to try and edit read only memory, may or may not deserve it bruh.

    also i can personally say that VAC didn't do shit about memory editing in Brink, Killing Floor, Natural Selection 1, Zombie Panic, probably others I can't be bothered to think of now.
