I apologize in advance for the bad English or lack of restraint in this post but I am so upset right now I can't think straight. Please just look past the horrible English and just feel the pain and the reason behind why I am posting this. Thank you for your time and please feel free to email me or comment on this post or twitter me @cinimod and tell me what you think or whatever.
I know I don't hold much power on the net but I am going to still try. I am asking people out there to Boycott steampowered.com they banned me for no reason on Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare 2 citing cheating saying that a cheat was detected and they say they will not lift the band under any circumstance. I in no way shape or form have ever cheating on Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare 2 nor would I ever cheat, hell I don't even know how to. I have reported people for cheating and of coarse those people are still on the game clearly cheating and hacking.
This is a theft of my money, I paid $60 to play a game with friends who also play this game. steampowered.com is a thieving worthless company please people I beg you to boycott steampowered.com. Their VAC ban rules are wrong they make themselves sound like they cant make faults, for instance they even say at this link http://goo.gl/2vHL that there are hackers out there that disguise their cheats as legit mods or maps or whatever to purposely get people banned from the games they paid good money for, yet this does not sway steampowered.com to rethink their ban policy maybe make a 3 strike rule or something.
I understand that cheating is wrong and it sucks trying to have fun and have people cheating while playing but first of all that person paid money to play the game however they feel fit to, with that said they should not be allowed to play the game but they need to have proof and provide an ability to rebut and prove that they did not cheat. I mean by this of coarse that legit players that get falsely accused or detected or what have you should be able to submit the proof. They don't even explain what cheat was that they say was detected. This is a way for steampowered.com to make more money and only to make money not the lies they state on their site that they want to make the game a fun place for you to play.
By stealing it from innocent players who in most cases are going to go ahead and pay another $60 bucks just so they can play the game again with their friends is down right wrong and yet it still is giving steampowered.com more money. It is like playing Russian roulette you pay the money and spin the chamber and hope you get to play the game for awhile till they ban you. I paid $60 for Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare 2 only to have them steal it from me, I am not the only one who this has happened to it even happened to a friend of mine that ended up buying a new game again paying steampowered.com more money just so he could end up playing again.
I can also cite another way that steampowered.com steals from you, I pre-ordered Star Trek Online to try it out with the understanding that I could cancel the pre-order and get my money back before the game is released, I tried to email steampowered.com to cancel and get my money back, they responded with you need to contact the company involved in the game, so I did and they told me they had no record of me and then asked who did I purchase the game through I said steampowered.com, they responded with "you need to contact steampowered.com to get your refund not us". I then sent another email to steampowered.com telling them this, as of the time I have made this post they have not responded back to me and I only have till Feb. 2nd to do it before I am out that money also. Again stealing my money.
So with hope this will spread a little but doubtful of any results I still want to ask people to BAN/BOYCOTT steampowered.com THE EVIL EVIL COMPANY!!! I ask people to please tweet this on twitter, post it on your wall at Facebook, blog about it, tell your friends, whatever you can to get the word out. BOYCOTT steampowered.com. With all this said, I would be more than happy to go back to playing Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare 2 cause that is where my friends are if steampowered.com is willing to fix this problem. With that said though I will not under any circumstance ever ever buy another game from steampowered.com again.
By the way for all of you out there if you want to make sure they see you on twitter they are @steam_games
