I feel unique. My account was disabled over a trading debacle.

My old account got VAC-banned. The reason why is because someone hacked my account and then later used hacks on VAC-servers.
Valve didn't do a thing about it.

Well, account security is [I]your[/I] obligation after all. And VAC-banning is no where near as bad as actually disabling the entire damn Steam account.
[QUOTE=postmanX3;25477443]This is ridiculous. It'd be one thing to VAC ban a "scammer" (though you aren't one), and that would be stupid of Valve in and of itself. But disabling your entire Steam account? I've probably put several hundred dollars, if not more than a thousand, into my Steam account. If my account were disabled over one fucking virtual hat, I would personally disembowel as many Valve employees as possible.[/QUOTE]
Same here, I've spent a minimum of $300-400 on games on my account. I'd be absolutely livid if they decided to pull an asshole move like that.
I think i'll craft all my hats from now on.

It probably just reverses as he gets to the peak of his "GRUH".
Just to be clear, this guy [url]http://steamcommunity.com/id/JumaAm[/url] is the guy who reported you right?

Hahah. Nope, just been up for a day straight.
Steam EULA. They have the right to terminate your account at any time.
[quote]13. TERM AND TERMINATION
Either you or Valve has the right to terminate or cancel your Account or a particular Subscription at any time. You understand and agree that the cancellation of your Account or a particular Subscription is your sole right and remedy with respect to any dispute with Valve.[/quote]
Take it up with their lawyers.
[QUOTE=geel9;25474451]I made a thread about it.

"We have the right to deny you access to the games you legally payed for and played for years, and we get to keep your money and TF2 backpack, which Robin can use to buy more hats for his real-life hat stack and trade for more hats for his hundreds of hat-filled alternate accounts."
I've never traded and I probably never will now, don't want my account to be disabled. :tinfoil:

Term and Termination sounds like a Jane Austen book :buddy:

True that they have the right to do this, but they won't get many customers if they get a reputation for terminating innocent users accounts.
i read a forum thread about you earlier. it's a really bad move from valve and i hope youl get your account back and valve will stop disabling accounts and just reverse the trades that are reported as scams and shown as scams. ive had truly obsessed people wanting to trade with me. a guy offering a heavy duty rag for the mackrel since he wanted it so much so in the start of all this, i was really scared. i really hope youl get your account back. and if not, well.
[QUOTE=Xolo;25461719]Maybe they'll enable it and give me Left 4 Dead 2 for my troubles, too!

then il try to get the money to buy you l4d2
Someone link the fuckers steam page.
Wow that's horrible dude. A disabled account because a guy wanted his hat back.....THAT HE GAVE AWAY. A deal is a deal and what's done is done, he shouldn't have expected it back. What a bitch.
I was scammed recently, I'm not bothered, I only lost a few weapons, but, I felt that I should not report him, I would NEVER want to ruin somebody's week.
Valve is doing what Runescape did to trading...
Congratulations. You have joined to MMO FPS called Team Fortress 2. Where everybody can ragequit because you are serious or non-serious. Buy trade and have fun.
Geel told me about this but I didn't get to read this til now.
Really hope you get your account back, Xolo. This is bullshit on VALVe's part for sure.

"we can disable your account for any reason" doesn't hold up in court.
You agreed with the EULA when registering your account on steam. That means you have no problem with Valve disabling your account anytime for anyhing. I'd say it would hold up in the court.

That's for the judge or jury to decide. But i'm guessing valve can afford better lawyers than most people.
Fuck yea, $500 court bill for a 170$ account that you still wont get!
SUF is a community of dickweeds.
What's your steam name? We should create a group demanding the re-activation of your account.
That's why I'm trying to be extra careful with who I trade with. Steam is where most of my collection is located.
All of my games are on steam...:ohdear:

DON'T TAKE MY NEW VEGAS FROM ME
Lolz abusing the system is rather hilarious.
Just got 2 derpheaded little kids banned by giving them duplicate hats then saying they ripped me off.
Thanks valve :love:
This is what happens when you give gullible autistics a report button.
