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.

    Hello! ;D

    I want to ask; is it possible to get Trade ban for fake reports. If you got a lot reports, will you get Trade Ban?
    And how many reports need? Thanks! ;P

    Answer is same as before. SteamRep is not Steam. Steam issues Trade Bans, not SteamRep. I hope this helps.

    Just wondering if something like on the screenshots below is worth reporting or just decline, block and move on? Thanks in advance.

    Thanks. In the future, just create an "Impersonation with Intent to Defraud" report.

    I've also archived his profile in case he sees this and tries to change anything.

    SR doesn't archive the entire profile. It's better to have the full profile stating they're a middleman, to establish the "intent to scam" should they appeal. Harder to explain posting on your profile you're a tagged middleman than just copying a name without doing anything wrong.

    Unfortunately that doesnt help much. Personally my reports are clear , short and with good evidence but unfortunately they're lost in the hundreds pending ones. Unfortunately there are not many of you and i really cant imagine the number of new ones incoming. A question by the way: Why dont you get more staff to your team ? You dont have enough applications or the ones that apply are not meeting the criteria needed?

    Well you answered that last question.... not enough apps of those meeting criteria. One bad apple gets in and its as if you pulled the wrong jenga block out.

    What if you opened some new staff positions with no the same power as a mod-admin can have, for example a janitor like position which will help you by checking and forwarding you the requests that have solid evidence . Wouldn't that help ?

    Thats what a mod is? Also we cannot address every report, this has been explicitly said by SR, they are prioritized based on various factors.

    so how can the community help to decrease all that pending requests? For example i would personally love to help in any way possible since i have plenty of time available for extended time periods during the year. On the other hand i cant even think of applying as a mod cause of the previous time problem as well as other factors. And i believe there are plenty people out there in the same position as me. Want to help but dont know how.
