Unban Request

SteamID: STEAM_0:0:11895200
Hello, I'll start off saying this: This isn't so much as a protest, because I know that it wasn't an unjust ban, but rather a plea.
I posted an old appeal on the forums but wasn't really aware of what I was banned for. Now that I do know, I would like to explain.
This was a post on my old appeal when I didn't really know what I did: "You used a Disconnect exploit. Checking 'STEAM_0:0:11895200'... Steam ID is on the banlist. n00bSalad Sourcebans list http://sb.n00bsalad.net/index.php?p=ban ... 00&Submit= Player no nickname present Steam ...
I am by no means a hacker or anything of the sort. How I managed to come by my ban was this:
I became active in some jailbreak community called Angels of Death (http://steamcommunity.com/groups/AngelsOfDeathCommunity) and made some friends there. One of them, a guy named Smokey (No longer on my friends list), asked me to help him out with acquiring points on some website where you can earn free stuff by watching their videos (http://lockerz.com/). As a reward for helping him with it, he gave me some LUA script. Since I wasn't really familiar with how these work, I asked something along the lines of "Will this get me banned?". I guess he assumed I was talking about VAC and he said it was safe to use. When I asked him what the script did, he told me to go test it to see. I have to admit I'm pretty idiotic to fall for something like that but I did. I can't change that, but I wish I could. After using the script, I saw what it did and asked him for something else like a BHOP script, since I really had no use for the script he gave me. When I attempted to go back and play on one of my favorite zombie mod servers, owned by a community by the name of PlagueFest, it said I was banned from Kigen Anti Cheat. I have little or no knowledge on things like scripts or hacks, nor do I usually use them (This was the exception I guess). I know it was a huge mistake on my part and ask for some leniency on my ban. I can guarantee if I do receive an unban, nothing like this will ever happen again.
Sincerely,
MikeGo
EDIT: Also, I am willing to have someone look through my computer using TeamViewer if necessary to confirm I have no scripts or hacks.
