    @Steam I have been trying to login to my account t through the app but it keeps saying my password or user is wrong when it's not I can change the password or the phone number due to the stupid authentication stuff and I can't receive the codes I've tried everything I wanna login

    @OverlordKego @Steam report what they CHOOSE to put as the ban reason, not whether or not you've actually broken any rule or guideline. hell, i've even been banned in the past for being RUDE to someone! rude...disrespectful... you name it, i've probably been banned for it at some point on steam.

    It's super cool of @Steam to have a generic "disk write error" that has nothing to do with an error writing to the disk...

    for a company like @Steam under the leadership of Gaben, he has really made gaming fun. I've been playing Counter Strike and Half Life 1 ever since I was around 5 years old, and have been with Valve in general ever since. *I'm 26 now* Only critique of everyone there, is there needs to be more Pudding! Butt in all cerealsness (i'm coining that term, silence), i've had nothing but good things when dealing with Support for Steam when i have issues, *minus the part when i tried to refund Helldivers 2 after their whole requiring PSN to play, but that's not that cereal.*

    @Sheltyb803 @PlayStation @Steam Apparently it’s not what we thought. PS4 hackers were stealing games. This was a response to that. Buy a game for the duration of the return period it’s a temporary license. After that login and get a new one that’s traditional.

    @ArmaPlatform @Steam its a waste of money for the console players as devs wasted nearly 8 months doing nothing to fix the game

    @cooliocool7997 @valvesoftware @Steam Yeah it's really pricey for us. However I do prefer this at that pricepoint than my current xbox one controlller that got a tons of issues (one been they sometike forget they are linked to my pc, or refuse to close down while holding down the xbox logo buttons

    @Sheltyb803 @PlayStation @Steam Yes, Steam generally wants you to sign in periodically to verify your account credentials, maintain security, and update license information.

    @MCDEEZFN @Half_Life_III @Steam No third-party controller will work on Xbox without a paid license, and even then, it will only work via cable. Xinput is the issue for Windows PCs, but it can be used with an Xinput emulator, just like any other third-party controller such as the DualSense.

    @ganesh__47 @jynxzi @Steam Jynxzi, the big Rainbow Six Siege streamer (millions of followers), just tagged Steam publicly for help—likely an account glitch, refund, ban, or game issue. No details in the post itself, but public calls like this often get faster replies than normal support tickets. Community's already piling in with guesses.

  • KingRichard
    KingRichard (@KingRichard) reported

    I’m noticing a serious issue with cheating and steam is the absolute biggest culprit! They have a system that is tracking bans from multiple games yet they are allowing these accounts to still exist purchase games family share and continue to cheat. @Steam needs to absolutely permanently ban any offender from using the service purchasing games or having access to multiplayer games. This should be standard. If you ******* cheat your banned and you lose your account steam step ******** up! Publishers need to hit steam with lawsuits if they don’t handle business.

    @Pirat_Nation Don't care. Microslop had years➕ to fix @Windows & are only doing it now bc losing ppl to Linux & @Steam. These companies will never learn – I hope gamers finally do. Money is voting power & I haven't spent any since "Xbox One (won)".

    @Steam @valvesoftware Please fix the @DOTA2 bug in Hero Stats Kills, Assists, Death average calculation. The average is calculated wrong for historic data.

    Hey @Steam, I’m unable to log into my account because of mobile authentication issues. It’s getting really frustrating and I can’t access anything. Please help me fix this ASAP!

    STEAM IS DOWN @Steam please fix this!!

  • Scare_29_Crow
    ScareCrow (@Scare_29_Crow) reported

    @Sheltyb803 @PlayStation @Steam It was mis-reported. Everyone gets a 30 day offline license, which converts to a permanent license after you login on the 15th day or later after purchase. All is good.

    @Steam you ******* disgust me with this. Then you want to act like you didn't do anything when you literally have you corporate page blocking me. You are not slick you fat mother ******. I will smack you so goddamn ******* hard if you dont get your fat *** up and fix why @Nestle thinks they will privatize basic human resources. Oh but you want to try to lock me out of my account? Disgusting as **** you dumb *** ******* Criminals. Clearly you have some Conspiracy against me dont you @Steam ????? You are a massive company and you are not immune to the very justice you have been Graced with in your Favor As of Recently.

    @Steam I'm having issues with gifting games to friends and whatever your support system is wants me to wait for 2 more days until i can explain what the issue is. It would be grateful just to write to someone at Valve and fix my issue ASAP so that my mate gets his gift sooner

    @TankeryChan @valvesoftware @Steam Through the government postal service maybe. Never had a DHL or other private shipping company lose a single item, and I receive a LOT because of my job.

  • Suriv_
    Suriv (@Suriv_) reported

    @KingRichard @Steam I don't think steam will ever do anything from a business perspective they just want to sell games. The issue is on the devs they need better anti cheat software and better ways to device ban people.

  • CainGodTier
    GREGGORY ADDISON (@CainGodTier) reported

    Also why do you even need MY identity when I’m signing up as my company? Every other place has accepted my Certificate Or Formation and EIN number why are you being so difficult? @Steam you had no problem taking my $100 and I’m sure it won’t be this hard for you to get your 30%
