Steam keeps closing these requests, refusing to deal with them and asking that I start a topic here, so here goes:

I am writing to report a case of impersonation and misrepresentation within the HL2DM community. A game server hosted at IP: 88.214.58.156 is using my server’s unique name and description without permission. This deliberate action is misleading players into believing that this server is associated with mine, causing confusion and harm to my legitimate server’s reputation.

Here are the key details:

Offending Server IP: 88.214.58.156
Offense: Copying my server's name and description to impersonate my service.
Impact: Players are being misled, and my server’s reputation is being damaged.

If anyone knows how to get Steam to take action, feel free to contact me.

Thank you and happy holidays to all!

Find out who hosts their server,band complain to them. If it's reputable hosting provider, it's probably against their terms and conditions (T&C), and they will tell the offenders to knock it off, or they will be kicked off that hosting provider.
