I’m going to tell you an answer you don’t want to hear and is completely serious. You should stop caring about this and walk away. Nobody is going to care about a Steam forum ban from years ago. This will never show up during background checks, won’t hurt you financially, and isn’t a measurement of your character as a human. The only people who would care would be the typical internet freaks which if you’re interacting or communicating with such people you’ve already messed up. The interactions you had with the creator sound parasocial in nature so it’s not like he’s going to remember you (specifically your Steam name). While I understand that this is a community and pursuing passions is commendable at the end of the day the Steam Forums are there to support the facilitation of selling video games not the enrichment of the human experience.

You need to take a moment and realize you care too much about a Five Nights at Freddy’s forum.
