Torelethain (@torelethain) reported@KlassischeMann @valvesoftware @Steam **** off ****, there is plenty of reason for criticism, scalpers are an issue they had figured out and solve on the Deck launch, this was failed roll out. If it genuinely was sold we would be more understanding and happy for Valve. This was a mistep **** sucking fanboi.
-
Thorne (@ThorneAbrams) reported@AntiFurVoreGore @valvesoftware @Steam "Fairness" isn't getting special treatment because you've been a user for a long time. It’s everyone having the same 1-unit limit so the scalpers you’re complaining about can’t drain the stock. You’re asking to be part of the problem.
-
Camarada Pedreiro de Software ☭ 🇧🇷🌻 (@javadadepressao) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Brazilian players want to buy Valve hardware officially, at a fair price, with proper support. We are not asking for magic. Just a legitimate way to buy the product without gambling with bureaucracy and warranty issues.

USW444 (@UniversalSWave) reportedHey @Steam. We got a problem.

Cuprumator 🇺🇦 (@Cuprumator) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Dudes, fix payment in Europe. I cant proceed with my purchase
-
AzureCrux (@AzureCrux) reported@IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck Payment processors have rate limits, chief. Too many people wanted controllers at once. Every platform exclusive has this problem, it's frustrating as heck.
-
Eldritch Boggart (@EldritchBoggart) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Fix your system, given that everyone was getting a transaction error, this has to be one of the biggest console hardware launch debacles in the last decade. Guess people who wanted one are out of luck because you can't handle payment transactions properly during a blitz.

-
⚡ Luis Montes - @monteslu@fosstodon.org (@monteslu) reported"There seems to have been an error initializing or updating your transaction. Please wait a minute and try again or contact support for assistance." yo, @Steam_Support @Steam Let me get a controller.
-
Abort, Retry, Fail? (@ruinah) reported@1981Graf @NakiVT @Steam For promoting and glamorizing slavery and human abuse. If that's not obvious from a quick glance, that's your problem not mine.
-
Cobalt ಠ_ಠ Azurean (@CobaltAzurean) reported@PlayWarframe It's probably not you, it's probably the @Steam problems that got reported earlier

-
olafkswg - Buying Skins 95% (@olafkswg) reportedIs this a planned change with no announcement or a bug? Broken trade history suggests the other, @Steam support can't answer this question.
-
transphobic racist (@nodanteowo) reported@Moonie__OS @Steam Everything in order, see no issues

-
RarelyBarelyGaming (@Barelygaming0) reported@IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck That is a broken system. Valve knows the base, how you not ganna make enough.... Wut.
-
Taco Man (@TacoMaestro_) reported@ajshpprd @Steam Same here. I even preloaded my steam wallet to try to avoid any issues
-
HorrorAmorata🌌🦑✨The Abysmal Critic (@HAmorata) reported@ServiusTheBear @Steam ... that wasn't my point at all. I think it's hilarious and have 0 issues with it. There's absolutely no reason to remove such a silly nothing.
-
Herr Dieter (@dieter_rage) reported@Moonie__OS @Steam What exactly is the problem?
-
William (@WilliamTimeMage) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Just bought mine had no issues. Im in australia if that makes a difference.

J. Ilmari (@hide_X666) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Would've been nice if your servers would've let me purchase it. Got errors 30 mins straight and then it was sold out
-
Ness_and_Sonic (@Ness_and_Sonic) reported@Judokast @Smthingedgy @Steam There's problems with Steam. The review filter is a big one for me. They applied an off topic review bomb filter to a game that rightfully deserved it for censorship.
-
Stephanie George (@GeorgeStep18720) reported@OKarma_OK @Steam @Steam_Support Just a heads up MillerNerd1 can fix this.
-
justinseans (@justinseans) reported@IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck "That’s not demand, that’s a broken purchase system." Shut up Grok
