To my understanding your point is that my aim contradicts with the level of my "other forms of gameplay" which you find suspicous. I am sorry if this comes out as a rant because well it honestly is one. I just don't know how to react to the absurdity of the situation. I sincerely wish to do a more polite unban appeal but I think it would be dishonest to not show that I am slightly upset over the situation. Despite the fact that I might sound bit passive aggressive in this rant I hold no hostile feelings towards any staff involved in banning me and I appreciate that you are doing the best you can to keep TF2 playable even after valve has abandoned it. I do however think that this is a rare case of mistake in judgement.
"you don't track enemies at all and yet your shots connect somehow"
Ever heard of flicking? Do you expect me to track a players head for few seconds everytime I see one instead of just clicking it immediately? What are you even getting at here, I am playing sniper not heavy and I do in fact track players when I need to charge the bullet on over healed target or
a heavy. It honestly sounds like you haven't watched more then 5 minutes of me playing.
"Your gameplay was frankly that of a fresh install yet you hit shots that looked absolutely bullshit" "What makes it hard to judge your gameplay is that you play like an absolute bot and that of a new player despite your supposed hours."
What are you proposing here? Are you suggesting I lied about my play time or are you trying to say that "since I have always cheated I never learned to play properly"? My gametime seems to have been private on my profile but I have now made it public as well as my inventory.
As for "playing like fresh install" what do you mean by this? I have only ever played pubs so I understand if my gameplay is not up to the standards of a seasoned veteran such as yourself but I don't think it is at the level of a fresh install even if its bad.
"You run in constantly with no regard for aim or tracking, and then shoot randomly, dying 80% of the time, but then suddenly you land a kill that looks illegitimate almost every time"
What are you talking about here? When I play sniper with the rifle I almost always camp in a corner like the dirtiest rat you have ever witnessed especially on defence.
I have also played backburner pyro (on 200 ping which makes airblasting kinda hard) which I assume you are talking about here as that gameplay sounds like "You run in constantly with no regard for aim or tracking, and then shoot randomly, dying 80% of the time" but I fail to see how such gameplay is indication of cheating as it is just normal pyro gameplay.
https://stats.skial.com/season/#/user/132302946 Here is my skial stat page and with KD of 2.7 I'd argue that "running in and dying 80% of time" sounds rather impossible. I honestly can't think of an example of me running in and constantly dying as a sniper unless im playing with the huntsman.
This KD is also with all my classes and not sniper specific. My sniper KD is probably a lot higher. I am assuming that my sniper gameplay is what got me banned and not my backburner pyro gameplay but for some reason you are talking about running in and dying in same sentence you talk about hitting "illegitimate" kills.
Im honestly not sure if you accidentally watched another players gameplay or I am misunderstanding what you mean here.
As for hitting supposed "illegitimate" shots only thing I can blame is the demo and my ping for messing with the recording. I am sure you are already aware of how fucked up demos can be and I as I have not seen the demos myself I cant really comment further. Here is a random video related to the topic that I found on youtube
So how do I proof my innocence? If there is NO way for me to convince you that I am as legit as restrained rat in a plastic bag I would like you to just say so and we can all move on with our lives and not waste time arguing if there is no way that I can change your mind.
However If you are willing to listen there are few thing I would propose. These are time consuming and I understand if you'd rather not. If you have better ideas they are very much welcome.
1. Screensharing my whole screen on discord and recreating some of these "bullshit shots" while stomping a random pub. I can also try to stream my keyboard and mouse with my phone if necessary however I haven't tried anything of sort before so it might take some trial and error.
2. Going over the demos together and me explaining the thought process between every frame and maybe I can convince you that I am not just some thoughtless NPC randomly running around shooting.
I don't get to write much in english so I do apologise if this comes out as hard to read and/or understand. Please ask for clarification if something is badly worded.
