Ok, Tell me some ways in which having VAC disabled can be beneficial to a server.

It would benefit you by allowing drunken f00l to play?

Since when can't drunken fools play on VAC secured servers? I get drunken fools all night.
They get shot they say "I'm so pissed"
They don't get shoy they say "I'm so pissed"
They vomit in their keyboards and bleed from the arse ... "I'm so pissed"

"I'm so pissed"
"I'm so pissed"
"I'm so pissed"
"I'm so pissed"
"I'm so pissed"

SM "KICK"

I know this thread's been inactive lately, but I had the same issue and couldn't find anything about it at the time.

Running the latest MM/SM for my Left 4 Dead 2 server, which is VAC secured, I found with the sm_who command that players would randomly be given root access. Even bots and special infected had it. They didn't have immunity and didn't seem to be affected by plugins that dealt with admin abilities, but they could access the admin panel. My files weren't tampered with and RCON wasn't being abused.

sm_reloadadmins resolved this and correctly identified players as actually having admin or not. So as a temporary fix, I wrote a small plugin that reloaded admins at a few hooked events like First Spawn and Round Start/End. Ever since I've never seen random players with root access. Dunno the cause, could it have been a plugin or conflicting plugins?

With SourceBans-plugin or without ? :S

*edit
Better if list all SM plugins
and show admins.cfg or that admins_simple.ini.

We are still experiencing the same problems on our servers. The servers are now VAC Secure do to a new MM Plugin but it is still continuing.

I'll try the sm_reloadadmin command thanks!
