    Appeal for BANNED BY SR

    Steam profile: 76561198033175085 (CUBE)

    Appeal Plea: I am innocent of all listed offenses
    Appeal Reason: [Accounts] Friend/Family - My account was abused by a family member or friend
    Victim Repayment: No, I committed no fraud or had no direct victims
    Previous Appeals: No, this is my first appeal here

    Alternate Accounts:


    Appeal description:
    I got into betting at csgolounge yesterday, and ended up winning. So I decided I would bet some more tonight, but as I logged in I see my profile is banned, and so I'm here, appealing.

    Reason for ban: Fake rep
    A friend of mine posted a "+rep" on my profile, and I didn't really see the point other as a humorous act. I thought nothing of it, as I'm used to seeing my friends posting random things on each other's wall. Didn't actually think I'd get banned for something like this, and I think it's a little unfair as I was unaware of any rules or even that a site like SteamRep existed.​

    The +rep on your profile is from earlier this year (year is only shown when not the current year - no year shown = this year). Your ban is from three and a half years ago. Three and a half years can be a long time to remember, but that would be when the offense happened.

    You should read: http://forums.steamrep.com/threads/appeal-tips.66354/ especially #1, #2.

    #23 (provide inventory history) is always a good idea, whether or not it seems relevant - admins often ask for it and having it available right away helps make the process as smooth as possible.

    Best of luck.

    Really new here so I appreciate you helping me and trying to improve my appeal!
    I wasn't banned when I first betted on csgolounge, but then yesterday, suddenly, I was banned. The reason for my ban was "Fake rep", so I assumed it had to be the thing on my wall, but as you said, the ban happened three and a half years ago which didn't really make a whole lot a sense to me, as I was able to bet the day before. That's why I thought it was connected to what my friend posted. Guess it wasn't that then, good to have that out of the question. I'm honestly clueless on how I got banned.

    Attached you will find my inventory history.

    CSGL took a day or so to lock you out because SR's database and CSGL's databases are two separate systems that had to sync up once you became active on lounge. That process takes a little bit of time.

    Best of luck with your appeal.
