    Type of appeal
    SteamRep tag removal/downgrade
    What was your in-game name when you got banned?
    Gibbles
    When did it happen?
    August 8th at 12:30 AM PST
    What's the specified reason?
    Specified reason was because of me Middle manning specified items :

    From the trader
    History - backpack.tf

    From the Scammer
    History - backpack.tf
    History - backpack.tf
    History - backpack.tf
    Why do you think you should be unbanned?
    During the time, it was late at night and Ominous, a friend i had for a while had told me that he needed a middle man, so i did it as a nice favor, but at around the time i didn't know that he was a scammer AGAIN because of his previous tag, which i saw was appealed for until it was once the TF2 Outpost mod added me.

    The scenario was basically i was Middle-manned a 2 unusuals and a Norm. Gold Aussie Pipe launcher for a The Ooze, Polar Pullover. The moment i thought the trade was never really a bother-some issue.

    When this was over, i ended up going up with my day until i was added by a TF2 Outpost mod and i was asked if i knew that Ominous at the moment was a scammer, which i responded with no. He soon began to say that it was fine until i said that i've had ominous for around 3 months added. After a short dispute between him, me, and my community owners as we saw this as no issue since this trade was never conceived on any Steamrep covered server, i was soon TF2 Outpost banned and soon after, Steamrep banned.

    To my point, i didn't know he was a scammer at the time and this was my first case scenario of middle-manning with a scammer, and i suspected to get a warning. I am also curious, since i've been in tf2 for a few years, how our trade was tracked down a day after the trade and as we where neither party reported the trade. I am purely confused as i was reported a day after and got banned from TF2outpost, while some reports last over 4 months with 0 responses.

    Edit : The attach more thumbnails wouldnt let me attach more of the items that where traded

    Please remake them and be sure they are uncropped and unedited.
    This means that the whole window is visible including the url bar. You may blank out your loginname

    Seeing as you brokered for a scammer, even with the Trading with scammers policy being removed, your ban is still valid. However it was a one time occurence and you have no other offences. Therefore we will give you a caution that can be appealed in 3 months.
