Valves reaction here is nice, then OTOH, this was about exploiting a game mechanic that wasn't completely thought out. In such cases Blizzard wouldn't ban either - at least not without a warning (they would certainly remove the items though). The Valve forums are full of people complaining about having been banned without reason (yeah. right.). Maybe it's the smaller community that makes it seem as if it didn't happen as often. Frankly. If I were to lose my Steam account, I would be seriously pissed considering all the money that went into that. Also, it's crazy we even have this discussion. I think it's completely crazy that cheating in $game will cause you to lose $allgames. Then again, I guess there must be some motivation to not cheat.
