    Hello again. I would like to ask a couple questions if that is ok. Recently I appealed my ban and it got updated to a Legacy one. I was previously banned on MCT and posted on this thread before.
    1. Do I have to appeal on every trading server forum and outpost etc to get my ban removed from there?
    2. Currently I have a former MCT admin who is willing to testify my situation and clear things up. Is there any steamrep admin or a person in charge who can talk to me and I will directly guide him to the person?

    Thank you very much.

    Hypothetically, could I get a Legacy ban If i got banned by Lethal Zone Trade (they have nothing to do with SteamRep anymore to my knowledge) or even have the ban removed?
    My appeal is posted off course.

    As stated in multiple recent general discussion threads, Lethal Zone tags have some details being worked out. You'll have to wait before you can appeal them.

    Can't go into detail, but you had a lot of offenses on your account, and it was placed on hold for extra care and research. An admin claiming to have more details hasn't followed up, so we'll probably try to proceed without, but with the number of offenses/tags on your account, and notes that at least 1 appeal was denied, it's not a simple as "you're off the hook now". At least one of your tags were already handled.

    The BBG community shut down late last year, after some final followup we need to do, SR will be doing an audit of the tags and the rest will be going defunct within the next months time. For now, we will not be accepting any appeals for BBG tags.

    Yeah i know that one was removed but why would one be removed and the other not if they're both discontinued sites, also it's been YEARS since those bans were put on my account. Also the appeal that was denied was when I was 12 and I didn't know how to appeal. I realized now that it really doesn't matter cause I don't trade and I'm basically banned from all trade servers. Just the fact that I'm marked as a scammer when it was a family member bothers me. I know people say make a new account but I have too much money on this account also I don't want to lose my steam rank. One last thing is I know who ever was looking at my appeal forgot about the UTC ban completely because it's been a year since I posted a valid appeal lol. Just fill me in on anything else; anything will be appreciated. :)

    Different offenses, different cases, and different tags, so handled separately.
    Generally speaking, if you were marked by SteamRep itself as opposed to UTC for multiple scams, appealed, and were denied several years ago, you would have zero chance of removing the tag even today. Policy is one appeal per person.

    By policy, we do not discuss specific cases or details in the General Discussion forum. Sorry.

    Can you provide me with a link that says one appeal per person; it just doesn't make sense that if I appealed for both defunct communities in the same appeal but theirs only one appeal per person?

    So uh... What if I shouldn't have gotten banned in the first place, to be exact, what if I was banned with no evidence of reason behind it?

    Because last time I checked, I don't have an alternate account.

    Alright so I applied for one of these and failed but my orignal appeal was never really awnsered I just got declined for the legacy ban, on both my appeals on this account and my original account I was just sent here so I was never able to repay my victim or given a clear yes or no could I please get a reply because I haven't been able to trade for years because of this tag.

    This tag doesn't stop you from trading - Only Valve can do that.

    Sorry it makes it harder to trade, so is there no other way for me to appeal this tag?

    If there is some way I can reappeal I would really like to know because I fell like my thread was never really finished and I know that this thing was put in place but It just rejected me instead of me having a real appeal
