Finding it out of game
If you are not in a game with a player and you want their Steam ID, but you know their in-game name, find them by searching for them here (http://steamcommunity.com/actions/Search?T=Account&K=%22%22). Then, visit their profile page (
make sure it is the right person!), and copy the URL from the address bar at the top of the page.
With the URL in your clipboard, visit this (http://steamidfinder.com/) site, and paste the URL into the area and press enter.
The webpage will then present you with the Steam ID of the player and a link to their Steam community profile page.
Copy the Steam ID and paste it where necessary, be it a ban request or unban request!
