Read the entirety of the context otherwise timeline/post might not make full sense.
I was permanently banned back in 2024 when the game was not known to the public and that you couldn't share any gameplay on Youtube/Twitch, and I never fully knew the reason as to why, while I suspected few things, I could never confirm the reason as to why, until now.
The reason for the ban happening in the first place is that back in 2024 there was NO Ranked Matchmaking, No Behavior Scoring and no low priority/warnings if you continue, you'll get a ban.
I was PERMANENTLY BANNED For reporting other people for not a valid reason, I did not receieve a warning and it went straight to PERMA Banned, the system that LATER came to be does tell you this and issues a warning so if you don't stop, you'll be banned, and that's fair, but I NEVER had this warning thus for I think it's unfair that I am permanently banned for OVER A YEAR.
The reason why I know this is true it's because I asked a friend of mine to contact someone from Valve to find out as to why I was permanently banned and here it is:
This response is from OCT 2025.
I understand that back in the day not many people were playing the game due to the game being in a very alpha stage and not many people having access but at the same time receiving a permanent ban without a warning because I reported one too many people is a bit harsh, I understand my mistake but at the same time understand my prespective and that I really wish to play the game as a huge Valve fan for almost 2 decades.
