Do VAC bans hide after 7 years?

Yes, a standard VAC ban can become invisible to other users after about 7 years (around 2500 days), but the ban itself is permanent and always visible to the account owner; however, if you have multiple VAC bans or any Game Bans, they remain publicly visible forever, as Game Bans do not hide after 7 years like older VAC bans do.

Is error 600 permanent ban?

Roblox Error Code 600 usually means the creator of a specific game has banned you for violating their rules (like using alt accounts to bypass bans), and while it's a ban from that experience, it can feel permanent if you can't reach the developer; it's not a full Roblox platform ban, but you must contact the game's creator to resolve it, as Roblox Support can't help with creator bans, though sometimes it's a false flag or glitch.

Can you ungift a Steam game?

You can't directly "ungift" a Steam game after the recipient accepts it, as it's permanently theirs; however, the sender can refund it if the recipient initiates the refund (if eligible) or declines it, returning it to the sender's inventory, or if the gift isn't accepted within 30 days, it auto-refunds.

Yes, a company can often refuse a refund, especially if you change your mind or the item isn't defective, but they generally must offer a refund, repair, or replacement for major defects, and there are legal "cooling-off" periods for certain sales. Companies can set their own policies (like "final sale" or "no returns"), but must display them clearly; however, these policies can't override consumer rights for faulty goods or specific legal protections, like the FTC's 3-day cooling-off rule for door-to-door sales.
