    Facepunch has no authority over VAC bans and cannot do anything but suggest you contact Steam Support. The odds of them unbanning your account are very slim though, and they aren't going to tell you the exact thing that triggered VAC.

    EDIT: ........ It took a bit for it to actually put what I said up. If you already got in contact with Steam Support and they can't help you, all you can do is make a fresh Steam account and repurchase Rust.

    Turn on Steam Guard next time and don't turn it off.

    And don't use the same password on your email account that SteamGuard uses.

    yes there is, you should have prevented it in the beginning

    keyloggers, bad passwords, relatives, people with access to your computer

    I had steam guard on. My password was not bad, It was a RAT.
    Yeah, Its hard to prevent it actually, Yes, It CAN be prevented by not downloading crap but I download tons of stuff and that was actually my first time with a problem from it.

    then it was your fault for downloading malicious software

    Edited:

    it's not hard to prevent a keylogger, don't think I ever had one. just don't download hacks, software which you can't trust, pirating from unreliable sources

    At the end of the day, you are still fully responsible for your account.

    Make a new Steam account and buy another copy of Rust. If you had a RAT and your Steam account got hijacked, having to buy a second copy of Rust is the least of your worries.

    Who the hell buys it in an auction when you can just get it cheaper on the steam store.

    It wasn't on the Steam store at the time. He's talking about the Dutch auction Garry did.

    Because it was available in limited key quantities on playrust.com months before it was available on Steam. And before the game went to Steam, it used the shitty Unity Webplayer, so you played Rust through a browser window.

    My account was hacked in december
    considering that the vac ban is 71 days old
    (roughly 2 1/2 months)

    I wish I knew what was the real deal, considering you were playing for 3/4 months after your account was hijacked? You didn't think through your tall tale did you? It's clear as crystal man, you cheated.

    I already said i could get proof that my account was hacked in December and that the guy got me VAC banned? lol

    Edited:

    Is it possible for a friend to give me their key if they don't play the game?

    Lol, looking at your previous posts, a brute force could easily take your account in just maybe a few hours, seeing it's only a 3 letter password, gee you sure have bad security.

    You remind me when I had account a password of 'death', it got hijacked within a month or two after making the account.

    LMFAO You sir, Are a dumb ass. Do you have any idea what a RAT is? Go back to first grade and learn to read again, I said "It was a RAT" Not " My password was RAT". Someone used a RAT on me to get my account kid.
    Im not wasting my time taking screenshots when theres nothing that can be done about my ban? That would be a total waste of time.
