    @UploadVR I love my Index and if Valve makes a new VR HMD I would like to get it but my Index controllers are broken and @Steam is making it very hard to get them replaced.

  • Grnd_Mstr_Tad Tad Peterson (@Grnd_Mstr_Tad) reported

    @Steam - Why does there appear to not be a way to contact support via email or chat? I have an issue with my account but all the "help" I get is linked back to my account settings. My issue is not on my side.

  • NameEveryone ANameEveryoneUses (@NameEveryone) reported

    @valvesoftware @Steam Fix tf2's bot problem

  • tweet_ameen @Ameen... (@tweet_ameen) reported

  • StevePayne82 ☠︎ Sea of Steves ☠︎ (@StevePayne82) reported

    Yo @Steam. You won’t give me a refund for a game I purchased more than 2 weeks ago, but only manage to play last night, and it’s broken. Why? Surely you can see the install date?

  • Cluetube Clue (@Cluetube) reported

    @Steam are the servers un-DDos'd yet?

  • Dusk_Vibes DuskVibez ☕ (@Dusk_Vibes) reported

    @100_nails @Steam No those were just false claims to scare people from playing Titanfall. It was all over some stupid **** and server DDOSing. There's more to the whole story but I don't fully remember the full details. Just get Northstar client to avoid the DDOS attacks.

  • Mizque_CPP Mizque (@Mizque_CPP) reported

    @Steam @valvesoftware It's 2022, could we please get the option to keep the overlay on but turn of that bloody "Access the Steam Community" pop up? At times it can be OVER elements in windows that are needed to do things (like for submitting a crash log and restarting DRG)

  • icejellycoffee io (@icejellycoffee) reported

    why i can't login my own id? @Steam

  • uwuist_uwu Cloidkazemoto (@uwuist_uwu) reported

    @Steam Isnt call of cathulu still broken, not being able to run on windows 11?

  • fanks1771 Fanks (@fanks1771) reported

    Hi @Steam i can't login via steam client. I can login just fine via web browser (firefox) but I keep getting connection error while logging in via client. Any advice?

  • Just1Moose Cuzzin Moose (@Just1Moose) reported

    @Steam please fix your **** launcher

  • Liloozievurtt Anner₉⁹₉ (@Liloozievurtt) reported

    @Steam fix the real tf2 first

  • Timmy_timmymit2 Timmy (@Timmy_timmymit2) reported

    @DukeOfKalos @Steam If the Steam service is bad don’t use it. I haven’t used my steam account since 2016.

  • ElJohanSulaiman Joe Dicit Lux (@ElJohanSulaiman) reported

    Stupid **** server @Steam fix it

  • Harry_Lyme_212 Tim Jim (@Harry_Lyme_212) reported

    @SeniorMoments17 @NordVPN @Steam Have you tried running Nord as a VPN client through your router, rather than on your machine? I uninstalled it locally because I was getting a lot of update messages, but I find running it on the router causes fewer issues.

  • freakinbox Freakinbox (@freakinbox) reported

    Why doesn't @Steam not delete the games in the old directory when you move them yet? It's been an issue for a few years now

  • Qin_Ton_O_fun Qin Fujiwara (@Qin_Ton_O_fun) reported

    @Steam Who cares? Every game on steam is a ripoff because if it doesn’t work at first, you have to refund. If you try to fix it, it counts that towards your time of being able to return. I’m not kidding I have to buy, refund, buy, and then refund just to find if a game will work

  • Remaldaaa Remalda (@Remaldaaa) reported

    @Steam fix your servers

  • portanlo1989 portanlo (@portanlo1989) reported

    @Steam I don't know what's wrong with you guys, but I'm sure I can't log in to the steam platform normally.... After repeated attempts, I get "Too many login failures from my domain in a short period of time. Please Try later." WTF...?

  • SeniorMoments17 🤐🧠 ᔕ𝐞𝐧IⓄ𝐫 ᵐσ𝕄eⓃⓣˢ 🤷‍♂️😜 (@SeniorMoments17) reported

    I will not be renewing my @NordVPN service. I comprehend updates, but this is rediculous. Every day a new update. Its annoying. Largely because it requires you to relogin over and over. Its actually worse than @Steam which is impressive and half of websites block Nord's servers

  • jayjayeggers jason (@jayjayeggers) reported

    @Steam Is steam not working rn for anyone

  • thetoastmachine Philipp Döschl 🇺🇦 (@thetoastmachine) reported

    @Steam Is there a support that can be contacted if there's an issue with purchasing a previously reserved Steam Deck? Thanks

  • KnightblindEXE Thomas Sorenson (@KnightblindEXE) reported

    @Steam Is there a way to get help from the Steam Support Team in regards to accessibility Problems? Ive sent several emails and i never hear back. Should i be contacting a different team? Its been months and its super frustrating.

  • irkifauzi Cauverse🍌 (@irkifauzi) reported

    @Steam SEA server dota2 cant login?

  • KGACali CaliKY (@KGACali) reported

    @FightCreakyAxe @Steam @SNKPofficial I've been having the same issue for about a week now and it's pretty frustrating.
