Second chance for scammers? LOL NO PLEASE.
Lots of people know about SteamRep, so I presume scammers also know about SteamRep yet they are scamming people and in fact upset them which is the reason I would never give second chances. They knew the risks and they got their quittance.

K then, fuck me for asking.

Yes, we got that chatlog as well as several others. We don't go by chatlogs or someone's word. Even screenshots are analyzed to verify the integrity of the image (and yes, we have had people fake reports so we're always analyzing and rechecking everything). There is evidence showing that, at least at some point, Gigabyte did have access to that account. Due to confidentiality reasons, I can't go into specifics.
You say "having gigabyte say anything isn't really reliable" and yet you're also sitting here defending him and saying that SteamRep tags people "for no reason." So on one hand you say your friend can't be believed and on the other you say that FACTUAL EVIDENCE can't be believed either. So what exactly can be believed? Just whatever you choose to believe or make-up?
Edited:
Absolutely scammers know about SteamRep and they are the ones who scream about how SteamRep isn't reliable, SteamRep marks people for no reason, etc. Even when we have solid evidence to the contrary.
It makes sense. The best way for them to keep scamming is to start rumors and lies about SR so people won't check the site and they can continue to steal from people.

If you can't trust scammers, what makes you think you can trust any one on the internet?
I could be an alt of someone of high power. Think about it, do you really know what goes on where you can't look?
-
Thank you. :) I do work very hard on it. I am not a trader so I can assure you I don't have any dirty past. I have no problem screenshotting my entire inventory and gift history and uploading it for everyone to see. I've never sharked, never scammed, and I really do this because I LOVE helping people. When I worked in retail in real-life, my specialty was customer service because I genuinely want to help other people whenever I can. Though my husband insisted I stop giving car rides to hitchhikers. :D

wat
son you just went full retard
-
>said I went full retard
>comes from a place full of 'em
Sorry son, your opinion doesn't matter here.
If you don't agree with me, look at all those unfunny memes those Reddetians spew out.
Rating this as dumb only means I'm right.
-
You're really desperate aren't you? You did what you did, now you're paying the consequences. Deal with it.
Sorry son, whatever the fuck is spewing out of your mouth, it's pretty damn idiotic. If you don't agree with me, just look at all those boxes.
-
give up dude
-
When you find yourself in a hole, the first thing you should always do is stop digging.
-
Gigabyte, you have earned the title of Evil Hat Hippy Scumbag in the DPRKFC. Congratulations you hat-stealing scumbag.
-
I'm totally fine with being marked. SteamRep can't do shit to me. Sure, they can mark me, but I don't do money trades or expensive item trades, so I don't have to worry. Hell, I don't know why I want to be associated with shitheads like Jailbait, Suttles and le retarded crate guy from Reddit.
We're getting off topic, by the way. This topic isn't about me; it's about SR and AcesGamer.
-
Can't we just get back to commenting on Ernie's voice?

-
Real mature there, pal
-
I have zero respect for scammers.
-
After the first date, honey.
-
Well, I'm tired of posting in this shitty post.
Admin, please get rid of all my posts.
(User was permabanned for this post ("Doesn't want to be here - Threadshitting" - Craptasket))
-
Doesn't work like that.
-
Scamming isn't a big deal, lol. It's only a game, and it's the seller's fault if he gets scammed. I mean really, you should check SteamRep when doing money trades.
Come at me bros. It's okay; I'm the most hated person in the TF2 trading community.
Forgot to say that, wish I said that long ago.
-
>Tired of posting
>Keeps posting
Also, I doubt you're the most hated person when you haven't even done money scams.
-
Yes it is a game but the items in the game contain value that can be used in many ways.
-
Scamming makes people sad, and is also outright wrong, would you enjoy someone stealing 200$ from you?
(Also your posts are kind of stupid right now)
Well the ban was obviously for almost no reason whatsoever.
There was a thread on facepunch called "biggest scamming you've done" (which wasn't scamming at all, *just* sharking)
I made a fake picture of my friend putting tons of valuable stuff in trade, and I put in a few genuines or something, and then posted in the thread.
A guy later entered the thread, and actually scammed, people called him out on it, then he reported the entire thread as scammers.
Naturally everyone else than the actual scammer got marked.
Sure, poor word choice for whoever made the OP, still not evidence.
I mean, at first people got actually marked as scammer, then they made it a "caution" tag later, INSTEAD OF REMOVING IT OUTRIGHT.
Also, wasn't there one point where you literally marked people just for having friends listed as scammers?
-
you're not the most hated, nor will anybody remember you next week
you made a bunch of dumb posts and said stupid things, welcome to 99% of scammers post style
-
I didn't even know you existed before you made this series of embarrassingly stupid comments.
I'll be showing this as a lesson to my children.
-
No, we have never marked people just for having friends listed as scammers to my knowledge. However, some people who had scammer "friends" were actually not friends at all but their alt. If there was such a tag, it would be removed.
I heard about that thread but it was before either my husband or I were made SR Admins. SteamRep has REALLY evolved and changed for the better. Especially since we support Valve's tags now, we are extremely careful about who we mark. That's why it takes me anywhere between 10 minutes to three hours to process a single scam report. I understand that a tag can essentially end a person's trading career so I will not mark anyone unless I have evidence to support it. I don't ever want to mark an innocent person and if I do, I want it removed immediately.
*Edit- I also want to add that I am currently the Head Scam Reports admin and I train all moderators & admins who handle scam reports. So my standard of being strictly evidence-based is carried over to the way ALL scam reports are handled on our site.
Also, we do tag audits to make sure that the tags we have are there legitimately. One weekend I went through all the caution tags of a particular community and removed 140 of them. :) We are committed to unmarking the innocent and ONLY keeping those marked who have solid evidence against them.
If you ever run across a tag you think is incorrect, PLEASE send me a message on Steam or PM me on the SteamRep forums and I will personally look into it.

I discovered Aces earlier on my own accord.
I didn't like him at all.
-
Fuck you, die in a hole.
Shit up this thread with your scamming pride, that's fine.
Hide behind a wall of self-righteousness, I can live with that.
But you do not call Suttles and Jailbait shitheads. They are good friends, and you're just a pathetic fool.
-
I've spoken with Suttles before.
He's a nice guy.
-
Uhh... who are you again?
-
He is a hat hippy that needs to be purified.
-
He's Gaj..na...mite?
-
That is what I was talking about:
Admins out of the shady trading world.
The site people never try to work hand to hand with Valve? If they make the best to legalize the site to official standar it would be a nice touch to ensure a pretty good service.
-
lol
Your name for a while was LeGigabyte. That was also your name on deviantart, in which you made this weird furry art shit.
-
excuse me sir but reddit has GirlsWithGlasses and GirlsInStripedSocks
how could it possibly be full retard
oh and I suppose I have to vampirize your post.
"You said I am the one who is fully incapable. I suppose you would know, since you come from a place filled with them." Gigabyte said very harshly to the old man sitting across from him. The old man simply smiled, a smile which could best be described as a colon and a parenthesis, and said, "what?" His hearing had deteriorated in age. He let out a small hng sound as he felt his heart stop.
-
It appears my post was confusing, Maybe this will clear it up a little.
That is good you analyze your proof well to make sure its legit, I'm not surprised people try faking to get people banned. Not that Gigabyte's word is worth a damn to anyone, but
So far he has not lied or been dishonest to me as I've been trying to help get out of his craze for a while. I don't know what's confidentially about the proof that he had access to that account, Gigabyte sure as hell doesn't care if I know the "proof" considering I know his real name and where he lives. IP addresses aren't confidential considering every website collects them.
I don't believe steamrep really tags people for no reason, but theres no way all the tags are perfect and everyone marked is a scammer, sometimes mistakes are made. Wasn't there a cluster F when UHC went down and UTC inherited the bans, yet did not save the data or proof of the people who got marked during UHC. When there's confidential proof, it should have a simple summary of why they are marked that doesn't expose anything really confidential. For example, "logged in 20 times on the same IP as a known scammer (Gigabyte http://steamrep.com/profiles/76561198057308970)".
I don't think I'm defending Gigabyte or not trying to be, he's just an example. I know he's a scammer and deserves to be marked 10000 times for his sins. I also believe that he was able to get people he disliked banned as the only proof posted was in
http://forums.steamrep.com/threads/7...741/#post-5606 which occurred right before he left the school where those two were from.
I don't think scammers care about steamrep in reality other than amateurs like Gigabyte who keep screwing up in different ways. Recently he got a new account and reset his internet modem to get new ip, logged into tf2op, and the later on accidentally logged on to his old account on tf2op and thus got his brand new account banned. It's a waste of time for scammers to do any dealings with steamrep when its easy to buy a keylogged/phised steam account on a sleezy forum for $2 that is not marked on steamrep. As shown by this thread, nobody listens to what scammers say about steamrep due to their bad reputation, scammers are not going to convince people not to check the site. Scammers are just going to be prepared for people to check the site and continue to steal until Valve gets serious about this shit and starts hardware, ip etc banning.

To gig: I like how you went from an almost apologetic "oh pweease give me a second chance, pweease add a pawoll system wike in weal pwison" to acting like you'd continue scamming and that "it's just a game, big deal".
It's not just a game any more, for some it's a second source of income. A lot of people sell their items for cash, and when you scam people, you're practically stealing money from them. A burning flames hard counter in game is 90 dollars in real life.
I don't get why you would even think that for a second you would get untagged. I know you were acting sarcastic when you said you scammed 83 people, but I BELIEVE you actually did. You were part of a group that not only scammed and harassed people (some to the point of crying), but part of a group that made over 1k euros over scamming. Parole may work if you were were convicted of vehicular manslaughter because someone jumped in front of your car in pitch black midnight, but for fucks sake, do you expect to get any freedom if you gunned down 83 people and put on a mask of false regret? bull fucking shit. The fact that you were in TeamDeviate/TeamVedetia makes you guilty by associaton, regardless if you took part in their scams or not.
I'm glad that in the end all of them were trade banned and after #3 fucked over #1 the whole diseased corrupt temple that is TeamD-whateverthefuck collapsed on adrians head. To hell, the lot of you.
You, TeamDeviate, and Scamming in general is

why did everyone make this thread about some random scammer and not the actual person the thread was about?
I bet he's happy everyone shut up about him
