    Appeal description:
    I was involved in a Spycrab. I won the Spycrab, but the opponent I was up against ended up being irritated about his loss and then started calling the admins that he won the Spycrab instead of me. The admins believed the opponent and ended up banning me from their servers. I was banned by the Mann Co Trading community due to me having a UTC tag on my profile. But the website is now down and there is no way for me to get on the website and appeal my innocence.​

    On a quick audit of your case, I have removed your UTC tag. It appears that the admin who tagged you for this spycrab, before we had certain accountability mechanisms in place to prevent communities from issuing tags for eachother, issued a tag on behalf of both Unusual Trading Community (UTC) and TF2-Trader (TF2-T). Furthermore, only the TF2-T tag was removed from your appeal, leaving the UTC tag stuck in limbo. Since we starting to roll out and test a new beta appeals system for defunct community tags (which both TF2-T and UTC now are) I have simply wiped out all of your tags instead of directing you through that process.
