how long does the global chat ban last?

[Cheezey]

long story short may main acc got a global mute and im trying to figure out how long till its gone? ive played a good amount of comps and gotten a good ammount of exp but its still there. for those curious i mostly play wingman with my friend so im not being toxic twords teamates, im assuming a bunch of people got salty after WM losses and i got a bann for it? i can kinda understand why this system has been implemented, (ppl spamming binds, music, screetching, racists etc) but even still, there was already a mute button and it takes like 2 seconds to hit. not all of my teamates i come across understand this and i cant comunicate with them...

Long story short. I hope forever. Fortunately for you, some amount of XP, maybe few levels or level 40. Who knows? certainly not the people who behave themselves.

In order to remove the mute penalty, players will need to earn a certain amount of XP, though other players will have the option of manually unmuting the auto-muted player.

a few weeks depending on how much you play

chat bans are manual, if u got banned it means someone actually think that you abused your chat, a valve employee manually reviewed your reports

yeah, idk how they could police the millions of accounts lol, however thy did say after earning a couple of ranks (exp) id be removed, and ive ranked up at least 25ish times after the ban so idk

Global ban? How many miles is the diameter of the Earth? Around 8000? That's how many days it will be until your ban wears off. <3

Wow. What a bunch of close-minded a-holes in here.
They don't even consider that the reporting system is 100% broken and can be used to grief players.
Give u guys 3 examples:

I once played on dust2 casual, and ONLY used the shotguns (as a challenge for myself, there was also an achievement for killing 200 or 800 people with them, something like that). I was killing almost everyone that dared enter A-back or B-corridor. That was they first day I started using shotguns, and I realized I was VERY good at it.
Of course, EVERYONE was angry at me. How DARED I kill everyone with only that crappy 1000usd gun? LOL are we playing a Barbie game or what?
Anyways... Even members on my own team told me to stop killing everyone. This lasted ~5 rounds and then they all, both teams, reported and kicked me.
I don't have a mic and couldn't write text fast enough while playing of course (I don't have 2 fingers on my left hand, so yeah), so all I did was laugh in chat with some of my teamates at the end of rounds.
Well, then I got a warning saying "you are getting too many griefing and abusive communications reports, if you continue u'll get bla bla bla", stuff like that. Special snowflaky ways of fixing problems where none are. There's also a mute button, if I was using the mic for chatting, they could just mute me and move along. I think it also works for normal chat.

Well, secondly, I live in banana-land Brazil and we got LOTS of cheaters on casual servers here. They usually have that KEYDROP thing on their name (must be some hacker group idk). Sometimes they use cheats openly: their character rotates like crazy, they fire all-accurate shots even while not aiming, they aim through walls, etc. Valve's really not caring for any of us outside the US.
Anyways, I got in an Office game once and there were like 4~5 dudes with that KEYDROP bs on their names and pictures. They were destroying the other team every round.
The other team said "if u guys don't kick them we will report u all" etc, then I openned votekick for them all the time, our team mostly said "NO", and after the game ended (I was expecting to get a replay and report them to half-4ss-Valve, but where do I een do this?), I automatically got a comunications ban. Go figure right? I should chop both my hands, why even try to be happy playing games? There's nothing else to be happy in life anymore.

After I learned to use the shotguns, between those dust2 games, I also pretended to be a BOT (I even created this cool picture for my profile, it's a neutral BOT picture I created based on both BOT pic designs) and was using the shotguns to hold middle-doors, on that slot corner. Not sure if it was related to the ban I got, but I totally heard the other team saying "kick that damn bot that camps in middle" in the end of rounds. They all were very angry at me... What could I do right? My team was wining, the losing side almost acuses u of cheating when you are having a good game day. I'm playing my own way, always honest and fair. I have my good and bad days (LOL THIS IS LITERALLY A SENTENCE ON THE LOADING SCREENS). Sometimes I spend 5 rounds w/o killing anyone and dying all of them. If I want to use crazy profile pics and names, that's my problem. Am I too good to use the shots on dudes in middle? They added the reporting tools ban in order to keep stoopid unhappy sad people happy. Do we make 5~10 people angry at us? Yes, but as long as I'm not cheating, screaming bs on my MIC or bad-wording people on the game's chat, why is it? Actually, this is a +18 game. Snowflaky populus is winning it, we've lost even CSGO for them. Almost all games are filled with 8~12 yo kids in Brazil.

What the frick is wrong with this world???

Nice almost 1yr necro, of opening up your statement by namecalling. That's really going to go over well. Lol
