Greetings.
Now before I start, I know some of you hate me so if you do, you should probably stop reading past this line as nothing I say will resonate with you (go ahead do your shitposts). However, if you can take things neutrally and think about the following chain of events, please explain to me from your POV how any of this is professional or logical in any sense, because I have been trying for the past 5 hours to make sense of this and apparently no one involved wants to take responsibility nor give a shit.
So my team who got 3rd place (aim/phlps/mason/alec/dingo/me) was told we are also in line to go to the event in the scenario that a team supposed to go cannot go (after Ascent was invited, if another team chose to not go we could go). We were ensured about this multiple times by BTS staff. Now, the team in question of not going was 7 who was still deciding whether or not to go. After 7 decided to not attend, we were deemed illegitimate and entirely skipped by the admin team for some reason with no contact, who then asked euro players to make basically a pug team to go instead. As the admins basically told my team we aren't even in the running anymore YESTERDAY I started looking to play for someone else and I got in touch with the euro pug team in the making. After contacting them I get told that TSC told them that there are "behavior concerns" with my team and that's why we didn't get invited (which we were not informed about), and that automatically transfers to me as a player which makes me illegible to play at the event according to them.
Now first of all, I am very confused since I have never had a problem such as this at a single event I ever attended in any game be it TF2, CSGO, OW or Dota. I went to ask the admins to clarify what this "behaviour concern" means and why would that mean you ban players from ENTIRELY participating or acting as a coach (coaches are allowed at this event and you can sit behind the team) because of those "concerns". Here is what I am met with:

So I cannot be told the reason apparently because it's a "private matter" but since it is involving me and I asked about it PRIVATELY, I still cannot be told why I'm actually banned from even SPECTATING at an event. And it's not just me, it's multiple people who are subject to this same treatment. Now, at least tell me what those "concerns" are that people have with my team and I and I'd be like "ok that makes sense I guess, shitty but sure I see the logic". However, there is ZERO intention of even telling me or anyone else what is going on.
Another matter is that if me and others get flagged for "concerning behaviour" how are people who said slurs on streams allowed to attend the event? I won't post the names or the slurs, I can message them privately to you through TFTV or discord if you DM me. But seriously, what could I have possibly said or done that bars me from this event yet others who said stuff are allowed to attend? Ok if I said something very offensive, please go ahead and show it to the public so I can suffer the consequences and understand why you chose to ban me and others from spectating/coaching/playing.
And the cherry on the cake: After Nursey got busted for being a pedo, BTS WAS TOTALLY FINE WITH ALLOWING HER TO ATTEND THE EVENT. SOME STAFF EVEN FOUGHT TO LET HER ATTEND.
Based on all of this information, please someone try to make sense of it or one of you BTS admins have the decency to stop hiding information and tell us why we are banned. You cannot just ban people based on NO REASON behind the ban and keep this information private "for my concern". If I'm involved in the matter, you cannot just play the "privacy concerns" issue since I am subject to this information.
