Earlier this evening I got bored and decided I would stop by one of the community chat rooms. Probably a bad choice on my part..but I decided to stop by the left 4 dead chat. Notorious for its spammers and pirates..but went in that chat like I usually do from time to time. There was about 30 something people in there, plus one officer that went by the name '' mike'' not really thinking much of it. I decided I would play a quick round of L4D.


What happened next though..kinda surprised me. Half way threw the second part of No mercy, I started getting a bit of lag..thought maybe somebody was in the room spamming. Then I got this little Notification in the corner of the screen. ''You Been Banned From Left Dead Chat by Mike''


I'm fully aware of how to conduct myself when in a chat room.. any chat room. I never bothered anybody.. I never spam, advertise Phishing links, Flame or troll..anybody while in them. It's childish to do so and not in my character to act in such a manner. I can see if I had been doing the above...the course of action would have been a kick as a warning..then a ban. In either case, I did neither. A lot of people would not think this to be a big deal..however. I've always been one of those people that feel when something I feel has been done wrong. You have to do something about it..and in this case, I feel like this was wrong and unfair. What did I do for you to ban me, Mike?

I'm guessing, but it may have been that you were spamming the chat with "blah is now playing L4D1. Click here to Join" (assuming that happens in official chats). Its a bug in Steam where it sending it many times in chat when you start playing.

No that didn't happen. When I closed the game Scrolled upward to see what had happened prior to me being banned. I only saw one instance of Etc..is Playing Left 4 dead. Click here to join.

Still I would like Mike's answer, if he has one.

If you think it was really Mike Blaszczak, I would send him a PM (http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/member.php?u=351573) outlining the situation and inquiring the reasons.
