Brian clarified the clarification here. https://www.reddit.com/r/GlobalOffensive/comments/4378gz/valve_clarifies_that_custom_weapons_arent_allowed/czgqsxk:
"There hasn't been any change in the stated policy, though admittedly the clarification in that post made it seem that way (so we'll update that sentence). Innovation is awesome and almost every mod we see is fine. Our only concern, as the community correctly understands, is with mods that specifically misrepresent a player's skill group/rank or the items they own." No Steam user's ability to use GSLTs was stopped for anything other than failing to comply with the restriction on "mods that specifically misrepresent a player's skill group/rank or the items they own."

Did they cross it out because now it is okay to use custom models again? I expect to see all the wrongfully banned servers reinstated again.

Imgur mirror for anyone who needs it: http://i.imgur.com/D2EJiFC.jpg So, I sent the devs an email almost 3 days ago, no response. How do I get unbanned?

They got banned because they had custom knives (that didn't exist in the CSGO Universe), custom models, and other reasons. The surf gamemode is allowed. -- View this message in context: http://csgo-servers.1073505.n5.nabble.com/A-question-about-custom-models-tp11321p11339.html Sent from the CSGO_Servers mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Csgo_servers mailing list [email protected] https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/csgo_servers _______________________________________________ Csgo_servers mailing list [email protected] https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/csgo_servers _______________________________________________ Csgo_servers mailing list [email protected] https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/csgo_servers
