Why should you be unbanned or unblocked?:
I used the command mat_showlowresimage 1 cuz i hav huge lag. I hav a 1.60ghz, 2gb ram and gma x3100 videocard. I play tf2 on 30 fps thanks to hialgoboost program and chris's config that makes my tf2 much smoother by disabling alot of effects. I discovered that i can use this command to increase my fps and it did.
My real goal was to use mat_picmip command wich max is 2 (Low textures), -1(High Texture) . I found that i can set it to 5 or even 10 but 5 is good for me.
This command is not a hack since in 2011 mat_picmip 5 was not restricted by sv_cheats 1 but valve restricted it to 2 and now it brokes. Also about the mat_showlowresimage i will not use it since it removes transparency and brokes the game hud/menu and others.

I want to get unbanned because is the only time i use it and i only wanted to see if i can increase my fps. Also please tell me if i can use mat_picmip 5 with cheat engine if not then i will not use it and stay only on 30 fps. I really want to get unbanned since its very hard to find a server where your pc is not shutting down after 5 minutes​
 
We don't overturn bans made by SMAC.

What do you mean SMAC. I really want to get unbanned its the only time i use this command i didn't know that it will actually work since i suck at hacking but when i saw it worked i was amazed and happy about my fps. Now i regret it and i want to be unbanned. Even if you don't unban me can you tell about this SMAC and why you can't unban me i dont want to force you to unban me i only want a good answer. Also if you don't unban me, are there any skial servers besides those wich i used. I will go on anothero ne and this time i will never use other methods that implies sv_cheats 1 or any multiplayer restricted command.

Thanks for your patience and keep up the good work

SMAC is a anti-cheating plugin the server runs to detect things VAC normally wouldn't.

That convar you tried using is on the list of convars it checks and bans for. If its on SMAC's list of banned convars chances are it can be used for cheating.

Another admin is getting some clarification on this from someone who would likely know the details about this type of stuff so sit tight.

The ConVar mat_showlowresimage a write-protected (cheat) variable. The only way to change it is to turn on sv_cheats, and once sv_cheats is disabled, the convar is reverted back to its default value of 0. The only way you could have changed it on one of our servers is by using a third party tool, such as CE like you posted, which is considered hacking and thus a permanent ban across all of our game servers. I imagine you will be receiving a VAC ban soon if you used something like Cheat Engine.

WHAT. You mean i can be banned on steam. I used only one time.Is there any soultion to not get VAC banned. I actually deleted CE from my pc since i everything went in a wrong direction thanks to it. I checked on steamrep.com and steam client profile and everything seems alright. Hope i will not get VAC banned.

I have a last question: Even if i am banned permanently from skial i can get unbanned after 2, 5 or 10 years? I still hope for an unban but you decide.I will never use thirdy party tools on multiplayer games even if its for fps increase.
