On top of that, I’m now receiving comments on my Steam profile calling me a cheater. These are false accusations and they’re damaging my reputation and personal image. In many places, publicly accusing someone of cheating without evidence can cross into defamatory behavior / reputational harm, so this situation is affecting me beyond just the ban itself.

Just a side note:
There's only one comment where you're called a bot, but it was almost a month before your game ban.

So it has nothing to do with your ban or the vac forum.

I deleted the comment in question. I have a screenshot. They only had to see one comment and they would start commenting en masse. You know how that works.

That doesn't make sense. In other words, Steam says it can't do anything because it's a ban from the game developer. The game itself says it was banned by VAC. So you're saying it's not a VAC ban.

The details on steam say it was due to reports, and Overwatch flagged my gameplay as irregular. How is that possible? I can’t understand and believe.

Best to look at what it says on your steam profile and not what it says ingame, as Valve haven't fix what it says ingame. also you don't get banned just on reports, overwatch means your gameplay was investigated by a few people and found that you were breaking the rules.

changing or deleting comments doesn't change anything.

I get the confusion.

To put it simply, a VAC ban (on a profile) is one that was caught by the VAC system and the player automatically banned.

In the context of a "game ban" in CS2, the decision to ban you is not an automatic one by the VAC system but one decided by a group of appointed trusted players in the "overwatch" system. If they agree (based on evidence they see) that you are cheating, then the VAC system will proceed to ban you. In other words, you were deemed guilty by a jury of players and the ban was then enforced by VAC.

So there's no point appealing since a group of investigators have already seen evidence of your cheating and decided you were guilty. It wasn't an automated ban without any human oversight.

Dude, I swear on everything that's holy that I've never used cheats. I know that's not worth anything apparently, but it's how I can start.

Besides, look at my last few matches. That's 141 Faceit matches and 9 Premiere matches (to get the drop). You can see my stats on csstats or leetify (I always uploaded them from FaceIt).

How can a select group of players claim I use cheats when I didn't even play well in those Premiere matches? Furthermore, if I used cheats, I would surely have been banned beforehand on Faceit or something similar.

In other words, besides sounding very unfair, my ability to play, my investment of time and money, depends on a select group of people. This is unfair to me for two reasons:

1. I've never used cheats, macros, or programs and I got banned.

2. The gameplay, investment, and ethics of a person depend on a group of players, when supposedly the Overwatch system doesn't even officially exist.

Você pode não ter usado hack, mas seu ban pode estar relacionado a troll/anti-jogo.

Voltei a jogar recentemente e é absurdo o tanto de hack/troll que você encontra nas partidas, único jeito de jogar sem encontrar esse pessoal é em plataformas como Faceit.

Espero que, caso você seja inocente, seu ban seja revogado. Do contrário é o que o pessoal acima já falou.
