Moderator is abusing/stalking me, how to fidn his identity?
A moderator gave me a perm ban on some garbage game discussion and after I asked why is it worth a perm ban, he didn't reply and instead went to my profile and gave me warnings for my own comments in my profile like a stalker/harasser. He refuses to reply to my ban appeal and stalks my profile for any rules I may of broke. I don't know who he is and I would like to report him, can anyone assist me? I am not comfortable with having a moderator stalk me.

Game forum mods are appointed by the game developer/publisher. They also have no power outside their respective game hub. So if that mod "stalks" you, you have to get in contact with the game developer of the forum where you got banned.
Or just ignore him since he is just a normal user on the rest of Steam.
Steam has no influence about those subforums.

It says he's a "Steam Community Moderator" doesn't that mean he is a volenteer mod?

All the more reason to invoke the axiom

Those who complain about moderation usually need it the most

How do I make a ticket? I'm on their support site and I see no option to make a ticket anywhere. It's just a knowledge base

You use the "Community Moderation Messages" on the right.

Or you could you know reflect upon your terrible behavior instead. But hey its always the 'mods are out of control'

I would reflect upon my terrible behavior if it wasn't a perm ban because there's nothing to reflect on for a second offense lol. I used the community moderation message and he doesn't reply, instead he stalks my profile to give me more warnings. Maybe read my thread before giving me an attitude?

maybe you check the profiles posting comments on your profile. there was no community moderator posting on yours.

I'm noting the whole 'stalks my profile' yet don't see any such things on your profile at all.

While I do see things on your profile like

i got perm banned for calling someone a mongol lol

Yet you insist there is nothing for you to reflect upon?

Its amazing those who violate the rules are so oblivious to their own behavior, yet insist on projecting their own negative traits upon others.

When did I say I didn't break rules? I know I broke rules and the rules I broke don't warrant a perm ban. The moderator is stalking my profile as when I asked about my ban, 30 minutes later the same moderator gave me more warnings but on my profile. How about you read my thread before harassing me.

The game sub forums have total control over what they allow. .
Steam will not help with any decisions made by game forum mods.
The game developer/publisher has 100% house rule and can ban you for any reason they want.
So opening a ticket is pointless.

Also with opinions like this " only girls and gays follow rules, no loss on my part to be banned on a dead forum filled with trolls" i am inclined to be on the mods site.

As far as I am concerend, there's no game moderator for the game discussion since it is only filled with trolls. The person who is stalking me is a global moderator.

Oh well you see that's not how that works. You don't get to decide your punishment. The moderator does. And the moderator can look at your previous history. A history that I will wager includes a LOT of rule breaking/warnings issues/etc. Some infractions do not warrant warnings at all. And no you still don't get to decide what infractions warrant a warning.

When you break the rules there are consequences. You not liking said consequences is not moderator abuse.

The moderator is stalking my profile as when I asked about my ban, 30 minutes later the same moderator gave me more warnings but on my profile.

And yet amazingly this supposed discussion doesn't appear on your profile at all. You should perhaps not claim things that are easily falsifiable.

How about you read my thread before harassing me.

You should perhaps read the rules since you apparently don't understand them, and can't stop yourself from breaking them.

If it wasn't a big deal, I woudn't care because I rarely use steam anymore. But having a moderator stalk my profile doesn't suit me and I will file a report against this moderator.
