I was banned for a week for being afk for 2 min...

[Thiwsty Bird]

I was recently playing Cs:Go on comp and i had to alt tab to check somthing. I was gone for not even 2 minutes before i was kicked off and banned for a week.... I am very upset about this because i was only gone for a few minutes. I would very much apreciate it if you could look in to my case more and see if i can be unbanned before the week ban ends.

You were most likely banned because you were kicked from the session by the other players for being AFK.

[Thiwsty Bird]

Yes i was banned for being afk, BUT i was only afk for not even 2 minutes and they kicked me! i find that very unfair

[KRIGERN]

You shouldn't have been AFK then.

[PlasticLobster]

The bans get longer the more you don't behave normally.

If you got banned for a week, you've probably done worse and deserve the ban.

I cant help that i had to go afk...

[Wowee]

You can get kicked for being afk in any game. It's not unfair, but most of the time its not smart to kick for that.

Tell you are afk a min.

You can also leave the game and reconnect later so your team can control your bot. :)

No, you weren't banned for a week because you went AFK for 2 minutes. You were banned because you abandoned previous games, and you got kicked for being AFK. You could have waited 30 minutes and play another match, but sorry you were banned before!

[SteeL]

Yep, do not think there only fools here. You only get a 2 weeks ban after you've already commited bad actions like leaving competitive match.
If there is a chance of being AFK - don't play competitive games.

[steviedum]

It wouldnt be a week ban if you hadnt been previously banned

[BibleClinger]

You can't be unbanned. This is your fault. Learn from the cooldown.

here is a thread you should read http://steamcommunity.com/app/730/discussions/0/864959336634313487/

you do realise that no matter how fancy your inventory or profile is or how much time you have spent in the game means nuthing if you infact cheated or used hacks

Vac is delayed be it days,weeks,months until you get a ban

same thing goes for overwatch if people see you hack or that you use something that clearly gives you an advantage using a program it should be reported as such

and if you spent all that time ingame you should have spent the little time it takes to read the rules about not complaining about Overwatch bans or cooldowns here in the forum

Tho only ones who can help you with this is Steam support

But please understand that the reply can take up to a month

Dont afk, dont get banned, you had like three changes before 1week ban, 30min,2h,24h and then 7d, correct me if im wrong.

[KillahInstinct]

1) You had 3 previous cooldowns
2) You didn't communicate with your team
3) Read the pinned thread.
