Perma banned, don't understand why, was on the SteamPipe beta client

1. In-Game name: urbanracer34

2. Steam ID: STEAM_0:0:16410922

3. Reason you were banned: "SMAC: ConVar sv_consistency violation (bad query result)"

4. Why you should be unbanned: I don't even know what I've done wrong in the first place, aside from installing the TF2 SteamPipe Beta client. I have always played fair. I have always been a good sport. I don't even know how people even cheat in these games.

5. Any other information you would like to include: I had just installed the SteamPipe beta through Steam for Team Fortress 2 after having to replace my game storage drive in my computer. I did some reading from Valve's website while installing the beta that it didn't matter if a beta client connected to a non-beta server (citation: https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=7388-QPFN-2491, under "client beta"). Given this information, I thought it would be no problem playing on a server that was used in production. So I joined your 24/7 2FORT server, wandered towards the enemy sewer, and I was in the middle of a fight against the enemy team as a Pyro when TF2 said I was banned.

Just please wait paitently as you will be unbanned after the smac system is updated

 

Ok. I'll wait. Thanks "Jay".

 

Anytime.
