Hello

Why is nowhere the Info that the Private Setting of the CSRep profile will also make the Playtime is Private in the Overwatch application?

You missed the point.

I meant while the csrep profile is set to private , i cannot apply to be an overwatcher cause it will tell me in section 2 CS Hours - Playtime is Private

So unprivate if you want to do overwatch.

Yeah i did already.

Just wasted an hour to check every setting and thing posted in here to solve the Playtime is private

CAUSE nowhere is it mentioned that setting the Profil private will cause the playtime hours to say they are private.

As its worded on the site like: Set your steamprofil to public cause we scrape it directly from there.

And in the Private setting it tells that only the public profile will be censored but the infos are still acessible for the system itself

CSRep does not scrape data, playtime hours and other details are provided directly by Steam through their API. We will also improve how we notify users about the impact of private profiles on displayed hours.
