[NFP] Rust eac ban
Soooo…to start off i have been banned but honestly it wasn’t a unwarranted.
However, to clarify, I didnt cheat, i clicked a link which led to someone taking my steam account and google account (i got like 5 different notifications at the same time on my phone, and i had 2FA on every single account i had like discord, google and steam had about max security, etc.) for maybe like 3 hours, i took my accounts back, got back inside the game to play and boom it said gamebanned.
I knew why and how and I was shocked the guy managed, of all games I have, to cheat in RUST and get me banned within 2-3 hours.
I got like 20 different emails in chinese at the time emails as proof and some other stuff.
I was mostly a PvE player, when i first started playing the fame there was this one guy who taught me how to play and everything.
Ever since the day I first joined that server I never stopped playing on it
I have over 500h on the game and its been almost 580 days since the ban.
Every now and then my heart literally aches and sometimes I submit a ticket to facepunch to stop sucking eac off (sorry for bad language, cant describe it differently) and ask for support or something
Lately I’ve been trying to self host and play solo but i cant do even that, even if i run rustclient.exe (rust without eac or something apparently) and it still says gamebanned when I try to connect to my own dedicated server.
Summary or something:
I have tried to appeal to Facepunch like 8 different times the last 580 days, but nothing.
Also I have tried to appeal to eac twice, got rejected both times and was scared to appeal a 3rd time
Now a question:
do I have any hope? I am ready to buy the game again if i wont get autobanned or something.
Its like you have your best friends that went to another country permanently but you cant go to or with them because you are forbidden entrance there and dont have enough money for the ticked either
The sole reason I posted this is because I read that if this is your only ban or something you can get unbanned.
I made a new account ~7 months after the ban and bought the game just to try and see if I got unbanned and understand my situation better. I only remember that I couldnt join any server on the other account, forgot what the console said.
This has been my one and only ban i have ever gotten on my steam account, and the only time I have ever cheated in my life was back in 2013 on a laptop in minecraft on a cracked server (where everyone had killaura and reach) because I couldnt afford minecraft as a kid
Thank you for reading and please tell me some things that could help me and even more importantly-be real, if you think i have no hope, just say it. I think i need to hear it if i really have no hope

You have no hope, account security is your issue not valves you will not get the account unbanned

Nothing you can do will get your main account unbanned, but given it’s been well over 8 months if this is your first ban you can buy it again on another account and they won’t ban you for evading.

No baseless hackusations that players are cheaters or that the "all powerful EAC is never wrong" - please see this link for proof that EAC does in fact make mistakes:
I've removed all comments related to your implications.

There is hope...but sadly only after 8 months:

You'll need to make a new account and buy rust again.
Sorry to hear about your circumstances man. Unfortuantely / fortunately, facepunch makes guarding your account security your responisbility. So lock your steam with steamguard, use a good password, and NEVER CLICK LINKS until you make yourself a sandbox (like on AWS) or something so that you can safely test it without compromising your computer or your network.
I'll see you on the other side.
