If people want to test these kinds of exploits, you can do so on a server that is not VAC-secured. That won't risk your account being VAC banned. (Of course, if you really want to be sure, use a secondary account and a server that's not VAC-secured)

in this case id also recommend goldsrc games.

a) more info is readily available b) dedicated server u can run locally even on a potato

no need to test against online folks, there's fine bots available.
