WTF! Steam Acct Disabled?

[killaholic]

hey, well i go to log in my account and i get this message, anyone know why?
fyi, this is not a vac2 ban.

[Deadfreak]

Damn, thats even worse then getting a ban. That just means your "whole" account has been "banned" aka disabled. You won't be able to use that account again. Not sure how you could have got your whole account disabled though... I was just reading on the interweb and some people said it might have been caused by a "model", not sure if that helps.

Well it could be caused if you used steam cafe from my understanding and what campstaff if anyone is familiar with him has told me. You have to delete your blob and some other files before running cafe. Maybe its that or it could be for using multiple IP's and some other shit .

i spammed the steam forums, and i guess they didnt like that too much.

i checked both my accounts and they are both disabled, could it be a hardware id ban or ip aswell?

edit: i dont have a caf? account nor use multiple ips, i just delted every trace of steam or valve on both my drives so i hope when i buy a new account this will not affect me again. *crossing fingers*

If you've previously used cracked steam clients like PacSteam or anything else with the Steam accounts you've had disabled thats also a possibility.

probably that was it . maybe. but delete your steam folder and everything related to steam. uninstall it and make sure that your steam folder is delted . Then re-download and start again .

ok what that means is this

when i used to steal steam accounts, if the owner of the steam account went to Valve and showed them proof of purchase and registration of that account, one would get the account disabled error.

now, someone must've went to valve, reported something of that sort to them and got your account disabled.

that's one STRONG theory to why your account is disabled.
