Uhm okay so.. i've been marked as a ASBO scammer for a long time and I know i have been. I havent really bothered to get it lifted since i pretty much only played tf2 and didnt trade very much very often. The ''OH GOD ITS A SCAMMER'' Or being banned from a ton of servers has really affected me. I've wanted to get the scammer tag taken off since i've wanted to become a mod/admin of KK(KritzKast) and they said i'd have to get my tag taken off before i'd be put into consideration. Heres the story, a year or so back i remember getting messages from a mate of ''CLICK HERE LOGIN FOR FREE STEAM GAMES'' stupidly i fell for it and clicked on it and got my account taken, i issued a plead for help to steam support on the 21st of May 2011, after three days i had got my account back to find i had been banned from some of my favourite servers and had a scammer tag on me. Heres some proof of the steamrep conv.

Hello @ZniperToast,

This is a notification that your appeal is now under investigation. Please check this topic regularly from now on, for admins may set time-limits on responses on the forum for their questions (normally 7 days) before a appeal will be closed. Hence you may find questions in subsequent posts by the admin that is investigating the appeal, please answer ALL of the questions, for a admin will only start the background investigation once those questions have been answered.

This message indicates the change to "under investigation" of your appeal. Only AFTER this will the admin start processing the appeal. Hence questions may not be asked the same day, but generally within a week (no guarantee) in this appeal topic.

You should reply on this to indicate you are checking the appeal regularly if no questions where asked by the appeal admin (yet).

The reason to close such is to keep things moving once a admin has done its due diligence to complete the required appeal information, and lessen the pile of open appeals. We cannot personally contact each appealer via steam or otherwise to ask them to respond on their appeal, due the volume of such.
The reason why the background check is only done after responding is to keep moving in appeals, and not have research work done when that had no merit (minimizing workload). There are enough other appeals that didn't lose their interest of trying to appeal, which then can be served faster this way.

Non-responsiveness by the appealer means for the admin that the appeal can be regarded as "loss of interest" and no re-appeal will be granted. This appeal will then be set Invalid, and archived.

Hello @ZniperToast,

We have some remaining questions that where not answered by your appeal post(s). This may be because your appeal pre-dates our appeal form where such questions where mandatory asked, or not (yet) added to the form.

Please provide Screenshots of the support ticket. Text paste's cannot be accepted here as being proof.
You may blot out personal info of yours in those (use paint) like real name, login name, and especially information you provided to regain your account (cd keys, payment information etc), etc, and then proceed to upload the images to this forum.
However we must still be able to link the steam support ticket to your account via the screenshots.

Timelimit for providing this information is 7 days.

Hello @ZniperToast,

Unfortunately I didn't receive any response on my above requests.

Hereby I close the appeal. I'll leave the possibility for a re-appeal open. Please provide in such occasion the requested information.
