Keep posting fake guides and you can get a community ban for a time.

Same for up voting cancerous fake guides.

So you do you and reap the prizes.

This is most likely a scam. If they start talking about getting possibly banned but they can get you into contact with a "Steam admin" to help you fix the damage then it's most definitely a scam; they're only trying to persuade you to give your items away.

In which case you should report the profile(s) who contacted you about it, block them and then move on.

upvoting a legit guide is fine, upvoting a troll and/or scam guide is not fine and can get your ability to upvote removed. we have seen plenty of people that got in trouble for doing that. if you upvote a guide and steam takes action against the guide, you will get in trouble.

What about decorative guides for profiles? They count too?
