  • CAMTEAMROCKET TEᗩᗰ-ᖇOᑕKET-ᑕᗩᗰ (@CAMTEAMROCKET) reported

    @mrbootybandit_ @Steam This is one of the many reasons why I do not mess with digital content specifically for full price video games it is one thing to buy a $15 DLC but the fact that you lost access to all your stuff is crazy it’s like if you had them physically you wouldn’t have this issue.

  • __grewal Gurjeet Grewal 🇺🇦 (@__grewal) reported

    you know, @Steam never has that problem. Give up and let Steam take control again. 😙

  • djdrew8569 Andy McNeil (@djdrew8569) reported

  • konungen99 Toby (@konungen99) reported

    @bunnybo98915075 @Steam Yeah I can't find anywhere where they themselves explains the issue that is happening currently... And its just ruining all the fun for trading. It's probably the only thing holding TF2 alive atm

  • ThebeargoesMoo MooTheBear (@ThebeargoesMoo) reported

  • ThatxnekidDavid ThatonekidDavid (@ThatxnekidDavid) reported

    @Steam My steam account got hacked but I have very obvious proof like account transactions, older gmails and have many irl friends on the account. I tried to get the account back from the steam support page but it just keeps saying an error occured please try again later.

  • Clauwdia76 ⭐️ Claudia ⭐️ (@Clauwdia76) reported

    @MayorMori @Steam Is there any help or link connected to the captcha service? If so click it, they sometimes have an option for the visually handicapped that has them bypass captchas by signing in.

  • konungen99 Toby (@konungen99) reported

    @Steam Fix the god damn trading

  • ByrnePhil1 Byrne Phillips (@ByrnePhil1) reported

  • F_ckTw1tter $ATOM *moondog ⚛️ (@F_ckTw1tter) reported

    @securityweekly i.e. executive control over your own PC. Wish video game companies would wake up and distribute more Linux releases. I'm hopeful @Steam / @OnDeck can help fix this problem.

  • gomi321 Gomi (@gomi321) reported

    @idlechampions I'm having trouble claiming my free Vecna DLC from @Steam What should I do?

  • rEtRo_sPexX sPexXy (@rEtRo_sPexX) reported

    @Steam @Steam_Support Support informed me that an invite to complete payment was sent out on the 5th September and lapsed, hence the cancellation. I never received an email and I've been checking dailly, including my spam folder! However they sent a new one so problem sorted!

  • disableautoaim Disableautoaim (@disableautoaim) reported

    @Steam Why in the world would you require our account name rather than our email for sign in? Even after resetting password via email there is no mention of the username in the email. No remedy? Really weird.
