    If you don't know why you were banned, you probably broke one of our server rules. Most bans are temporary except in the case of gross violations or repeated infractions.

[Open] An apology for long-standing inappropriate behavior...

About two or three years ago, while playing TF2C, I wrote some terrible nonsense in the chat. Since then, I have been banned from voice chat in the game.

In-Game name: How_Ducken
Time of Ban: i forget..
Date of Ban: I forgot too.....
Steam ID: (76561198143293615)
Reason for Ban: obscene language
Additional Comments: none

Is there a chance for me to somehow atone for my guilt?

I think I looked at it correctly.

Steam ID: STEAM_0:1:91513943

A few years ago I wrote a stupid joke in a chat. At that time I didn't know that it could offend someone and didn't take it seriously.

P.S. and where can I find the time and date of my ban?
 
You can find the info of your ban on sb.vaultf4.com
Thanks for the recommendation!

But I can't find myself there. I tried to use the search, but I left "Date" and "Reason" blank. "Server" was also left as default.

If that's why I couldn't find myself, then how can I find myself? I don't remember when, on which server, and why I was banned.

Sliding in to say I got curious, went ahead and put your name in the HLstatsX site and found your info there, but clicking "view ban info" returned nothing on the sourceban page
 
Sourcebans does a somewhat silly thing where communications bans are fully segregated from traditional bans, so there isn't a unified search interface.

If I plop your steam ID in the "comms" search box in the top right of the screen, I get this:

 
Apologies for the delay, there was a misunderstanding on who was going to close out this appeal.

On review, it would appear that the ban dates back to September 2023, and given both the age and nature of the infraction, we are willing to offer you a second chance.

However, this is not a clean slate: please note that your ban(s) _will_ remain on record with us and will likely be taken into consideration if there are any future violations of our community rules. In particular, repeats or similar behaviour to the incidents you were originally banned for may result in said permanent ban being reinstated immediately and with no further chance of appeal.

If you have any questions regarding our server rules, now would be the time to ask. Otherwise, please reply below and confirm that you have understood these conditions attached to your ban being lifted.

Once I receive confirmation, your ban will be adjusted accordingly.
