Irrelevant, the account for the purposes of SR is yours.

Buying/selling/trading/lending or any other transfer of ownership of a steam account does not negate a banned tag nor are you able to appeal for the account.

This is also irrelevant to tf2outpost as you were banned via Fortress of Gamers.

Some info on how to appeal is right here:

The competition is not only for prices here. It's much more confortable for a user to directly send you a trade offer for the games that you are selling than having to trust other users and risk getting scammed . Regarding the prices, the value of them really does depend on who's buying. I don't have much experience in this field of trading, so I can't give an accurate estimate on what their values are, but you have the games in your inventory - you are providing the most convenable type of game trade for buyers, you shouldn't let your prices influenced by others' trades and simply wait for buyers.

The thing is that these game sellers are more than likely not buying the game copies/keys directly from steam store, but from sites like g2a, kinguin, etc., they can also buy game keys from those sites or they are buying games when there are sales on steam, they make profit ... y'know
There are like 3 ways:

1. Simply trading your items for the game gift game by sending the seller a trade offer, no need to trust him.

2.Trading your items or half of the full price to the seller beforehand and the seller will gift you the game after, some sellers are buying the game right after they get the items/ the deal, so they don't waste their money on copies of games that they won't be able to sell - this probably is the most common one because of the 30 days trade restriction for games, you have to trust the seller.

3. Trading game keys, this is simply not recommended. They offer to give you half their game key first. They suggest that you both send your key codes simultaneously by pm. They are either a scammer or not experienced, because both these ways of trading offer no protection. Half a game key is useless. Anyone can send a fake key.

Hope this helped! If you have any more questions, I would gladly answer them.

are you buying in tf2 items?

03. Don't trade here.

Also, I have never said that I am interested in buying it. By that I meant that if you want to sell your key on tf2op, you will have to wait until the CS:GO API is working, so your item will "appear" on the site (read more about it here )

Wait until the CS:GO API is more responsive, or if you're impatient: just take that offer.
It's up to you!

What if this isn't just about outpost, it's about the entire TF2 community and in-game use of the word aswell.What if I want to research new cancer drugs?

Userstyles are themes for websites. Userstyles empower your browsing experience by letting you customize websites. Take out irrelevant content, change colors, or completely redesign the entire site.

That is perfectly possible, userstyles are extremely customizable and they don't necessarily apply to every website. Just do some research on how to create a simple userstyle, I am sure that you will find what you are looking for.

Feel free to block them on steam and use the report a user fuction on tf2op and get them banned.

Yes, I gurantee you that a lot of users are getting added by phising bots.

You can always make a userstyle for this kind of stuff.

our question is if we can create a partnership, join the steam groups we both have and still able to make post for each of the bots (his and mine)

Ps. each one of us will make post relative to our bots. ( I'll make for my bot, and he will make for his)

You should have been a little bit more specific about what would this partnership imply. As long as the group(s) won't be directly advertised on the site, it should be alright.
