Counter-Strike: Ladderstop
From the current point onwards we see ourselves being forced to stop the Counter-Strike Ladders completely. At the moment there is a program in circulation that completely stops the detections of Cheating-Death and makes all known cheats unrecognizable by the program.
Because of this cracked version of Cheating-Death making it possible for all unidentified Cheats, we have been forced to close all Counter-Strike Ladders until further notice and upon clarifying the state of affairs they will not reopen. By this, all possibilities to create a match are affected like the manual challenge, Instant Challenger and the Auto challenger.

We regret having to go to this final bitter step, however, we want to guarantee that the league can continue untroubled. The change of the Anti-Cheat recommendation to VAC, first implied by us alone cannot achieve the guaranteed affectiveness we want from our ladders.

Any matches that were arranged before the ladder stop may still be played, however any teams that do not wish to play their matches can delete the match at their own will.

 Well Done! ...but i think some problems that occurs from version C-D 4.26.0 was resolved in next update.
From other site, i think it was better to cancel all scores that was made between clans played at server secured by C-D only!

 C-D is the best anti cheat tool to date, if you go onto any VAC protected server you will more than likely run into 10 people cheating in space of 2h, where as on C-D protected servers I hardly see anyone using cheats. Once 5x comes out it will kick the ass of any anti cheat tool to date… And so you know the last time I saw some get a VAC ban was well over 2 years ago what does that say to you about VAC : /

 CD isn't good enough..
1. it makes a lot of problems even if you don't have cheats, but f.e. old graphic card drivers
2. cheaters don't get banned... CD just kicks them out of the server and noone knows whether they cheated and were kicked or left normally
3. hacks for CD go out right after new versions of CD are made, so it's justo no use...

So the only hope is to wait for VAC2...

 #6 VAC is no use nowadays im afraid.

And we cant force every single match to be played on a server that has a SS Client installed on it as we dont run the servers.

#7 Dont swear its not nice, we feel the same way aswell :/

 CD sucked all the time, we never liked it!
It is not intresting either way wich proögrem is the better against anti cheat...
If u cheat on a CD server, u get kicked or banned from the server... (no big deal)
But if u cheat on a VAC server u will get a VAC-ban, and thats not worth it. So i would force ESL gamers to pülay on VAC+SC!

However, if someone wants to cheat, he will find they way to do that, so... it doesn't matter what normal players or admins want :(

Happy new year to all of u guys, and less cheaters and bugs and so on gaming related things for the upcoming year!

 I think ESL is wrong with this LadderStop.Cheating on C-D server or VAC was possible since years ago, not only today with that cracked program.ESL should only start Ladder with no prizes like 4 fun, maybe only with simple Premium account.Because real player skill comes on only at Lan Partys.There are too many difference between LAN and On-Line.There is Ping, PC performance, Cheating programs, all of these can make difference in a player skill.Cheating will never die, "Made a Law,Found an escape".C-D like VAC have been hacked already years ago.I found cheaters in both anti-cheat servers when i play public.So just get it on and don't think that United Admins or ValvE will bring up an effective and long time solution.It's a utopia, an illusion...

 #21 : CD 5.0 will have the ability to ban the cheater from every server that has CD 5.0 installed.

#24 : As soon as there is a suitable Anti-Cheat
