Feature addition request #36

Since I can not find a way to contact any of the devs on this project I will ask here: Can you add an option to this great project where I can toggle on/off VAC. My purpose for using this addon is for game ban checks only (more specific EAC Bans), and disabling VAC will be of great benefit to me. Thank you

Hello, it should be easy to ignore VAC bans and show Game bans only, however Steam API returns DaysSinceLastBan value only, without indication which ban it was. So it may be confusing in case checked person had a Game ban long time ago and a more recent VAC ban, it may lead you to believe that Game ban occurred recently.

Hello, thank you for getting back to me, was not expecting that. For the purpose I use the tool for is the admin work I do for the game Rust, the visual view of the overall bans and a quick mouse over to see how recent a ban was is how I use it, like if I have a suspected ban evader in the game 20 days ago and cant find his main account I will look at his friends and try find bans around that 20 day mark, and since VAC is more common to see instead of game ban I end up looking at more then needed. I try to find the quickest or simplest way to do anything since I can be searching/looking at 100-200 accounts a day when following a trail of a player. Your tool for chrome has already saved me an insane amount of time over the past 10 or so months since I started doing this. I did have a go of editing the code myself to show it showing the vac but chrome rejects it and I have to redownload it again, probably something chrome does to protect against code manipulation. Anyhow, thank you for taking the interest in replying to me.
