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, i've know i asked this before.
    About SteamRep bans. I am currently banned for "Alternate account" ive already made an appeal but its kinda bad. I have 2 questions about it

    1. Is it possible for me to edit my appeal and make it clearer and better (+ will it affect my chances of an unban)

    2. How do i prove that the account that is banned isnt a account associated to me?

    1. No. Reply with any clarifications or corrections, and the admin will take them into consideration.
    2. Explain any connection you have with the alt. How do you know that person? What might have led them to wrongfully get associated with you? See appeal tips, #7: What are Alts?

    Hello, can I expect getting an unban if I appeal one more time? I know I can't due to current existing rules.
    However, what I am asking is an exception. My profile got marked as a scammer due to a some kind of a mistake. Don't you think these bans shall expire or at least change their status to "Caution" or "Legacy"? It's been over 2653 days ago, which is already over 7 years. I can't provide any extra additional evidence of my innocence, I couldn't 7 years ago, I can't now too.

    I am feeling unfair that I can't play in some of community servers due to a mistake that happened 7 years ago in your side. Looking for a justice.

    Thanks for your time.

    Sorry you are only allowed one appeal - you've exhausted that one appeal allowed and therefore can not re-appeal.

    So once one appeal is made, that's it? No more? What about appeals for Spycrab/Gambling reports since SteamRep no longer accepts them and considers them "an itemless loss"? What if you felt your appeal was judged unfairly? Seems kind of ridiculous that it's one appeal or bust.

    Hello, can I make a report for a banned guy who has created a new account?.
    He has 1 account banned on steamrep due to paypal scam, he is redirecting all the people to his new account so i'm thinking if this is reportable or I need to have new proofs that he is still scaming. Ty

    No you can't make reports accusing others of being alternate accounts. If that account is trying to scam you or did scam you and you can prove it with proper evidence then you can report that report. Just make sure you don't report the account for redirecting you to another account or assuming they are trying to scam you since you can't submit reports based on assumptions like that.

    A long while back I got banned as an alternate account of my scammer friend (he's someone I am related to I cant really just unfriend him or family issues) When I tried submitting an appeal they asked me to submit it from his account which was still and is to this day inactive, when I tried explaining myself I just got the same automated reply, im not an alternate account and theres plenty of proof I can use how do I get myself unbanned I cant submit a appeal from the account so what do I do.

    You have a pending appeal - be patient and your turn in the line for someone to review it. Posting here will not expedite it.
    https://forums.steamrep.com/threads/appeal-76561198150907478-waengie-banned-by-sr.178123/

    Also your "friend" has been active as in the last 48hours according to steam so apparently you are incorrect with the account being "inactive".

    I amended my reply to include more - perhaps you should get your inactive/active friend or relative to assist you since they are in fact active.
    They can submit their own appeal to also help maybe get yours reviewed...no promises on that just saying.

    Hello, i was falsely banned on SteamRep 2020 days ago, and have yet to recieve the needed help regarding my case, is there any admins or moderators that can take the time to review case? It was originally declined based on me not appealing from my original account, even though this is my original account, and the account that was banned , which you deemed me to be an alt of, isn't my account.

    Your appeal was rejected and denied - Please do not submit future appeals and do not post here inquiring about its outcome or requesting the entire case be re-reviewed.
    This is not the place for such activity.
    #3 This guide applies here as well.

    Sounds like a scam - delete the user/report them to Valve and ignore it.

    Like I said it is fake - if you don't know who they are anymore I wouldn't concern yourself with it.
