Unknown reason for ban

Post by burner06 »

I was just banned on a scout knives server, I have no Idea why, the only reason I can think of is because I was having minimize problems with pokerstars open in the background, and maybe that was detected as some type of cheat.

any explanations?

2466286 is my steam id

2466286
That is not a valid Steam ID.

Steam ID,
but it's in this format.
STEAM_0:0:12345
STEAM_0:0:123456
STEAM_0:0:1234567
STEAM_0:0:12345678

If for some reason you were KAC banned and feel it was unwarranted,
Or if you just have questions regarding a KAC ban

Please provide your Steam ID #
Without this information it is impossible to proceed.
Your Steam account, your responsibility... no excuses!

Once you have your Steam ID number
you can check the ban status here
http://kigenac.com/bancheck.php



How to get your Steam ID:

in Counter-Strike Source (CSS)
go to Options/Keyboard/Advanced
Click the box to Enable Developer Console ~

return out of CSS menu system.

in game, while you are in a server.
type the ~ key, this will invoke the console.
type status and then your enter key.
you will see a list of all players in game.

find your player name in the list.
you will see you STEAM ID listed.

Or:

Locate your steam directory on your hard drive.
usually C:\Program Files\Steam or C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam
find steam.log file
open steam.log with notepad.

Look for lines such as:
CsComm ConnectionPool Nov-30-2007 00:43:19.632 [3136] Did not find an existing connection, attempting new connection 1,69.28.153.90:27030 for 0:0:1234567
The last few numbers is your steam id, ie: 0:0:1234567

what's the reason for ban and can I be unbanned?

0:0:2466286 is my steam id

The only thing I have that I am aware of is custom skins for some guns but I was not aware that was bannable.

Checking 'STEAM_0:0:2466286'...
Steam ID is on the banlist.

I don't have any specific information on the reason that you are banned.
I only have access to check if you are banned or not.

You will need to wait until Kigan replies.

How would I go about getting unbanned, I have no scripts that am aware of, its possible some model scripts came with custom weapons I downloaded, I'm going to delete all the custom skins, where would I request an unban?

oh ok when should I expect a reply from them?

I just remembered that my friend removed the muzzle flashes for me from when I shoot when he was optimizing my game for performance he did other performance adjustments with console commands, I'm not sure if that's allowed or not, but I also don't know how to remove what he did short of reinstall, let me know if that's not allowed and I can fresh reinstall CS:S.

Also for further information, i retried 2 times on the server I was banned from because poker stars was causing graphic issues, and I was seeing purple models etc. so i retried, had the problem again, then minimized closed pokerstars, reopened and retried again.

That was a bug with a check for a disconnect exploit.

You have been unbanned, sorry about it.

Sorry,
