Dear Steam Support Team,

I am writing to formally express my concern and disappointment regarding a recent competitive ban issued on my account while playing Counter-Strike.

During a match, I was paired with several players who engaged in intentional teamkilling and verbal harassment, including politically charged hate speech over voice chat. Despite not initiating any hostile behavior, I eventually responded to their actions out of frustration, which led to me receiving a ban – while the instigators went unpunished.

This experience was extremely frustrating and disheartening. I believe I was targeted and baited into a reaction, and the automated system unfairly punished me without taking context into account.

I understand that Valve uses automated systems to detect griefing, but in this case, the system failed to identify the actual offenders and penalized the wrong player. I kindly request that you review this incident and consider removing the ban or at least flagging the abusive players involved for further investigation.

Additionally, I encourage you to take stronger action against players who misuse the voice chat for spreading hate speech and targeting others based on nationality or political views.

Thank you for taking the time to read my message. I appreciate your attention to this matter and hope for a fair resolution.
