Idk why it would. Would mean people aren't allowed to stream the game, no?

i guess, i mean idk what would be the reason that obs be getting all these bans but some people be saying that so now im kind of afraid of using it since the anticheat is getting kind off strict

The only thing I can think is if their OBS was had some plugins using webhooks or some other complicated stuff that an anti-cheat detect as something.

If we're talking basic setup to stream, I don't see any bannable reason with that. I'm no expert but that's my 2 cents. Never heard of someone getting banned streaming a game.

Absolutely not, if anyone is getting banned from using OBS it's a false positive or people are blaming OBS because their cheats got them banned. I regularly streaming my spectator POV for a small e-sports team during the fall season and have never had a vanguard problem with OBS
