Every major developer already does this kind of thing anyway. Valve letting them use their own systems isn't that much of a surprise.
Thank you! I've been trying to make this point in other forums and all the other users are paranoid that the devs are going to start doling out targeted bans for bashing them in forums, making complaints, etc.
Who the has time to monitor that garbage? If it is like one or two devs that created a game and there is a user base of like 200 then maybe. Even then, that sort of behavior would only make the other 199 users all butt-hurt and leave too.
IMO, this is just a move by Steam to ship the burden of handling ban complaints from their support to the devs. As I have said elsewhere; your greatest concern should be increased game costs as these companies begin to handle a mass of support issues they have never had to deal with. I mean, I have to image that there are bans given out where people contest and probably go to great lengths to do so.

This one is easy, Don't use CH cheats online. They aren't made for that. All the developers HERE have stated their trainers are NOT for Online play repeatedly. If you want to cheat on your own game that is fine. You aren't affecting anyone but yourself. If you are using the cheats online you are not only affecting the play experience of those around you but are breaking the rules of the place where you got the trainer. You deserve to be banned.
