Appealing a Game Ban

[bercelbabca]

I know you can't appeal a VAC ban, but can you appeal a game ban and remove it from your Steam profile?

[BloodShed]

No

You need to contact the developer/publisher of the game that you got a game ban in.

Scroll down to the bottom of the Game Ban FAQ page here: https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/46DB-4CEC-F7E9-49E5
Your answer is given there, officially.

Also a bit weird you cheating your achievements after, on the game that you're banned in.

[blunus]

Account cheated, account banned even if you gave away your account info, it doesn't matter.

You'd think Lost Ark developer would remove a game ban, after cheating your achievements?

[HikariLight]

Not even half an hour of play time and you have all of Lost Ark's achievements. I doubt that ban is going anywhere if it is for Lost Ark.

Wait what? Lost Ark bans are visible as game bans on profile?

Anything is possible, but not everything is plausible.

It won't hurt to ask the developers, but I would bet lots of people inquire about getting bans lifted, and I would expect it doesn't often occur.

I agree, but i meant only few games have such deal with Steam that their ingame bans display on Steam profiles and I am surprised Lost Ark is one of them

Amazon wants them to be displayed on profiles. They aren't playing around.

As per what you put on your steam profile:

Hello. I'm on Steam. That's about it.

JUST GOT BANNED ON LOST ARK CAUSE SOMEONE HACKED MY ACCOUNT YAY

Assuming your account was compromised (not hacked), that would indicate the ban was rightfully placed.

[Paratech2008]

Accounts aren't hacked. Show me one instance where a Steam account was hacked. They are phished. People give away access to their accounts and blame Valve....
