Hello there,
A little more than two years ago I was initially banned for not ending round during a prop hunt game. I still remember what I was doing that was classified as not ending the round:
During prop hunt you can play as either the heavy or the pyro when seeking, and there was this "community" rule that the heavy would become friendly to the last prop, and only the last prop. What I would do is find the last prop, and then communicate in open chat that I was friendly so the last prop wouldnt run away. I would then perch myself on top of the last prop, making myself rather noticeable and would NOT shoot or kill the last prop. Thought it was amusing, however I was initially banned for "Not ending the round"
While I understand how this could be seen as not ending the round, seeing as I could have easily shot and killed the prop player then and there, I felt that perching myself on top of said prop made it easy for my teammates to see me and shoot the said prop.

Now this is where my BIG mistake came in. During the temporary ban of "Not ending the round" I foolishly logged into another account that I had the day before that ban expired, and it is my guess that my IP was logged during gameplay, and I was perma banned for "Ban Avoidance". Not contesting that, because yes it was a stupid thing to do the day before my temp ban expired.
Details on that ban here:

So it has been two years since I was initially banned, have not returned to Source OP Prop Hunt servers since perma ban, and I am missing it sorely. The craziness, the frantic panic as the clock winds down, all of it. Was wondering if maybe I could do some more prophunt, and in the process get myself familiar with all the rules, especially if they have been updated.
TLDR, banned two years ago, would like to rejoin prophunt server as a more responsible and mature player.
Thanks for any consideration.
