Link to your ban or your com block:
Why should you be unbanned or unblocked?:
I was only banned by connecting from a banned IP, I have 0 ideas as to why that IP was banned, or why I should be punished even though I never got to play.

My theory is that my IP was banned because my brother used to cheat in TF2, since back then I was still in middle school there was no other way for me to connect except for through that IP address.​

You were banned because this account (https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198335619043) was caught using LMAOBOX and was banned by Skial and banned by VAC.

Then you connected to the server using the same RESIDENTIAL IP address as the LMAOBOX hacker, so you got automatically banned.

Given that it is a residential IP address, that means someone in your house on your internet connection, hacked using LMAOBOX.

Which means all the accounts and IP address will remain banned with no chance of being unbanned ever.

Other accounts banned include:

Yes, that was my brother's old account, is there any way I can prove that wasn't me? I never used cheats, and I'd like to be able to play on your guys' server. If not that's understandable, since providing proof would be difficult for that.
The only thing I can think about right now is if you look at one of his other accounts steamcommunity.com/id/imasoupcan/ you can see that I commented on it in 2016, around the same time of the ban. If I was just making alternate accounts it wouldn't make too much sense for me to go comment on the account. In addition, all other accounts listed got vac banned since he kept cheating.

If there's any way I can prove this further, please let me know.

I really wish there was a viable method to test the "it was my brother" excuse, but in the end it comes down to the same as "my dog ate my homework".

Some communities I've seen make the brothers take a picture holding a card stating the community name, with a shoe on their head. But all that does is prove you have a brother, who may never have touched a computer in his life, and make you look retarded. There is no way to prove either way.

Good luck on other servers!
