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.

    I'd guess the non-D2T MM's do TF2 items.

    as far as I'm concered, middlemen with D2T only do Dota 2 Items, while the rest will most likely do TF2/CS:GO

    We rather have a report, for then we have all the relevant information available in the correct format etc, and are the screenshots also uploaded to SR's forum. (most sites have a limited availability of files, and often when appeals occur are those pictures gone)

    Wondering if I could get this report another look. http://forums.steamrep.com/threads/...7-drflopster-tf2-team-fortress-2-items.54354/
    Provided new evidence of his admission to running and he has yet to do anything to rectify the problem.
    If ya'll could, I don't know, give him a time limit for him to pay up before ya'll mark him as a scammer or anything to help, that would be great.
    (it's been >3 months since the incident occured/the report was written...)
    Thanks

    This report has been made almost a year ago. To make it really easy on the admins, we(the reporter & I), got lots of evidence.
    We even got Valve to mark him as a scammer.
    I figured some reports would be harder to determine if they're guilty or not, so I did everything I could to lighten the load.

    The common answer is to just wait, but, I'm getting the feeling that steamrep can not mark this guy for some unknown reason, and just leave it at the back of the pile.
    Maybe it's not true, but that's how I feel.

    Reports are mostly done newest first, to keep the active ones at bay till we figured a way to get our backlog done.
    I've done the report.

    What is the position on alt account if the account show no attempts or action of scamming and if the main account only had 1 infraction?

    We apologize for the delay.

    SteamRep is not affiliated with Valve in any way. The issue is between you and Steam Support.

    We are not able to help you.
  16. Hi, SteamRep mods; SR newbie here. Got a question I'd like to ask.

    I realize this is quite a massive stretch so I won't be surprised if the answer is a negative, but here goes anyway.

    I found a couple of users who are very clearly using pirated copies of Resident Evil 6, using cracked binaries that somehow bypass VAC. (As a side note, I also found a Steam group that blatantly parades using a pirated copy of the game as well as ways to circumvent VAC and legitimacy checks, but that's beside the point. I've already reported it.)

    Can these two users, on the grounds of evading VAC, be charged here in SR with ANYTHING at all, or am I limited to strictly reporting them via Steam Support? (Because the Report option on user pages doesn't even have the option to report for factually provable piracy.)

    Just curious. Thanks in advance!

  18. Alright, I figured that'd be the answer.

    Thanks for taking the time to reply anyway. Cheers!
