The Game: Team Fortress 2
Your game name: "⠀"
Your SteamID: STEAM_0:0:93851035
The time you tried to connect and got the error: 5/14/2017
Any info on why you were banned: I tried to join the server after not joining for a week with no name and i received a message that i got perma banned on the 9th. It also said i tried to join as " â €" when i have never used that as an alias. ???
(I've been using no name since last year)

Your steam ID isn't banned, but it appears there is a perma ban in place on joining with a blank name.

The ban is "[Auto]Detected Namehacking #2" and applies to "⠀, â €, dss, loel" of which the first is a blank.

If you set a non blank name and join it should be fine.

banned for name hacking is part of a anti hack detection system.

everytime you change your name over 3 times, you get kicked for changing name too often. if you change it within a certain time in succession then you get banned.

I suggest you do not join with no name either.
unbanned.
