1. There is no such thing as a "pending" ban or Steam admin. Anyone threatening your account is a scammer trying to scare you. Read more.

    Appeal description:
    Hello admins of SteamRep,

    my name is Bear Thrills and I would like to appeal a judgement.
    I have posted here before, but that was over 2 years ago.. A couple months ago I bumped my thread (I know that that was not helpful, neither for you nor for myself) and I was told by another user, to maybe try and post again with the new format. So this is what this post is about.
    I do not exactly know as to why I recieved this ban nor can I find any information regarding it. I can only restate what I wrote in my first post. The text reads as follows with a few adjustments:

    "I got the tag around the time where people started "to give away" Dota 2 Invites about a year ago (by now more than 3 years ago), when they were still very valuable. People were giving them either away for games, for actuall money, some for free and others wanted you to play in their "Dota Lottery" or write on their wall "rep+". That is what happened to me.
    I had been trying to get an invite around that time and one guy posted in the forum of playdota.com, that he would randomly select someone of those people that were to write on his wall "rep+" or "+rep" (don't remember which way it was).
    I have never tried to scam someone. I only wanted to play a game and tried any way possible to do so."

    Back then and even now I still try to find the post which stated to post in the Wall of that particular Steam User. I went back to playdota.com and couldn't find anything. I then tried to look via Steam to see on which profile I posted my message, but it seems that the owner of said profile has deleted either the comment or his account.

    I am deeply sorry if someone was hurt through my actions.

    My regards,
    Bear Thrills​

    If possible, please delete my old post since this one negates it's use other than seeing that I have posted here before, 2 years ago.

    Hello @Bear Thrills,

    You filed a appeal. This appeal thread was Invalidated & Archived for one or more of the following reasons:

    You already have an open appeal, or already have appealed:
    Only 1 appeal is allowed on SteamRep. The one appeal you have is the only chance you get. We don't have the resources to indulge appeal upon appeal of the same person.
    • There is no point in creating a new appeal when the one you already have is still open. Please wait for your turn.
    • If your previous appeal was Rejected, there is nothing more that you can do. At least 2 different admins have already looked at your case and felt the ban was justified.
    You have an open report, but are not yet banned by SteamRep:
    As long as you have not been banned you will have to reply to the open report and resolve issues from there. Only once you are actually banned with a red or orange tag by us, can you appeal here.

    You have a red tag on SteamRep, but the listed ban is not handled on SteamRep forums:
    SteamRep currently ONLY handles the following tags for appeals:
    • BANNED BY SR
    • SR CAUTION
    • BANNED BY SOP
    • SOP CAUTION
    • BANNED BY AF2
    • AF2 CAUTION
    • BANNED BY ASBO
    • ASBO CAUTION
    • BANNED BY RAWR
    • RAWR CAUTION
    SR = SteamRep
    SOP = SourceOP
    AF2 = Ace Fortress 2 (Defunct Community)
    ASBO = ASBO Gaming (Defunct Community)

    Any red or orange markings on our site not listed above are handled by the respective community they were issued by, NOT HERE. If you have a tag that is not listed above, you can find where to appeal here:
    http://forums.steamrep.com/threads/howto-appeal-banned-and-caution-reputation-tags.58/

    You have bans recorded on your SteamRep profile that are not handled by SteamRep:
    If you have bans or cautions of multiple communities other than, or in addition to, a SteamRep ban, you will need to address those FIRST before applying for an appeal for the STEAMREP ban. This includes the Valve Trade Ban / Valve Trade Probation. You can find where to appeal here:
    http://forums.steamrep.com/threads/howto-appeal-banned-and-caution-reputation-tags.58/

    Only once you have addressed the other bans, you can appeal on SteamRep.

    You aren't Banned or Cautioned on SteamRep:
    There is nothing to appeal here. Wherever you are banned or whatever your issue is, it has nothing to do with us. Any community may ban for whatever reason they see fit. Most common issues:
    We cannot possibly list all possibilities. The above are the most common, if you are banned somewhere, you have to appeal THERE. You have no ban here, hence we cannot help you.

    In all above cases:
    There is NO point to appeal to us, do not make a new appeal. Look at the information above and find out what applies to your situation.
