Answer doesn't change............

Skin changers are cheats. ANYTHING that alters core game files or game memory, is a cheat. Skin changers do this. A cheat does not have to give an advantage.

VAC for skin changer

Hello everyone, a long time ago I downloaded a skin changer for a week without cheats, just to try out skins, why do you get a complete exclusion forever, I think it's unfair

I'm glad you finally came clean but unfortunately the ban remains permanent.

Actually, it's very fair, and the correct thing to do. Skin changers are an affront to all other players who legitimately earned or purchased rare, expensive or otherwise very valuable in-game items.

Downloads a program that manipulates an on line game then complains they got banned for this very bannable offence....

1 VAC ban on record | Info
1610 day(s) since last ban

another original "i think it's unfair" scenario. It is fully fair, as skinchangers is seen as cheats. So the ban is Fair and cannot be removed or appealed, which is fully fair

another user who used a skinchanger who wants to be unbanned. its permanent and cannot be appealed

The Steam discussions aren't the appropriate place to dispute specific bans, please read the following FAQ . I've locked the thread as appealing via those methods is your best route forward.
