    Appeal description:
    The reason I got banned is because one night, about 2 years ago, a Steel HL team I was ringing for was having a scrim. We were playing Aegis's team, dK, at the time a Gold team - but we weren't aware they were Gold, we thought they were Steel like us. This made me upset, personally, because it was my friend's tryout for the team, and I figured he wouldn't make the team because we got rolled really badly. So to express my anger/get back at the other team, I changed my name to whatever Aegis's was at the time, and started making fun of his starter guides (aka impersonation.) This was immature of me, yes, but not a very serious offense, and this is the only time I have ever done anything questionable by SteamRep standards so I think I deserve to be unbanned.​

    One thing I forgot to mention is that I changed my name back to normal before the scrim ended, the impersonation only lasted for the duration of the scrim, which was less than an hour.

    Bumping this. Its been over 2 months with no response. My ban was a mere technicality - only changing my name to Aces's as a joke - I never planned on scamming anyone.

    Your appeal seems to be made on solid grounds. It may take a while for SR Admins to queue up to it, but best of luck!

    It appears that you did not fully disclose all your alternate steam accounts (and I find this action was knowingly done) lying/lying by omission are grounds for revoking the conditional downgrade (now revoked) and instantly denying an appeal.

    Amend your appeal asap, with an explanation of why you chose not to disclose the account(s) two weeks notice to do so.
