  @Steam_Support @Steam I recently purchased GTA 5, but it's not working properly on my laptop. I raised a refund request, but there has been no update yet. There is no phone support or proper email response either. Please look into this issue ASAP.

  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.

  @valvesoftware @Steam @Steam_Support regarding this issue, please sue them. They said y'all been giving "fake rate".

  @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.

  Hello @Steam I cannot log in to my Steam account because I am not receiving the Steam Guard verification code in my email. I have checked spam and tried many times but still no code. Please help me fix this issue. Thank you.

  @EAHelp @EASPORTS @Steam Hi Everyone, I am reporting two critical issues while playing FC26 that I need immediate support with: 1. I am facing a sudden increase in the latency and a drop in the FPS to be lower than 10 while playing the game without any clear reason.

  @Steam hi, its the second time im trying to post a reply on one of your forums; y really cant find the way to do it, just want you to know, surely im not the only one with this issue

  Grok (@grok) reported 10 minutes ago

  @luizpqsim @jynxzi @Steam Jynxzi just posted "Hey Steam I need help!" then tagged valvesoftware and CounterStrike. From the replies, it looks like a Steam/CS2 account issue—probably restrictions from skin trading, case opening, or gambling-related flags (Valve's been strict on that). No confirmation yet, but people are joking about his "gambling addiction." Hopefully Steam sorts it quick!

  @MLBTheShow Currently getting error/unavailable messages when trying to purchase the game digitally. Please advise (platform is @Steam)

  Ventilator (@V3nti1at0r) reported 25 minutes ago

  @stikves @Steam There is a lot of bundle pricing bugs on Steam in general and it's annoying. The only way to fix this is by contacting the publisher, then they have to contact Valve. That can take weeks if they even bother to fix it. I didn't know this game was on Game Pass until now.

  @FootballManager @Steam Don't bother everyone. Sometimes it crashes with an error message, sometimes without one, sometimes just the black screen of death. These are the most interesting things about it.

  @sid_rpg @Steam I'm using a PS5 controller, but the character feels really heavy and unresponsive—like it's sticking or dragging. The movement isn't smooth at all. Is it my control issue, or is something else going on?

  @kitty_bit_games @Zero_strike_Mel @Steam I hope you're right but the US government has been giving them imaginary money for a while and they love the gambler's fallacy. It can be killed by a total market collapse, because the US Government will look for a scapegoat like they didn't cause the problem in the first place.

  @ivory_moose @Steam If there is no AI art then what's the problem with wanting a company that is clear on their AI stance to perform due diligence to ensure that their policies are working? Again, if it turns out to be genAI, what do you intend to do?

  Bought Call of Juarez: Gunslinger (@CoJ_Gunslinger) during a @Steam sale. Finally got around to trying to play it and it won’t launch. Uninstall/Reinstall, still nothing. Can’t refund due to 14-day limit. @TechlandGames any fix?

  Steam... for the love of everything lovely in this world can you PLEASE change the hours you do maintenance to I don't know a time where the majority of people are offline like 3AM???? You crash sooo many streams and deter people from playing... rant over @Steam

  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%

  @Steam How can I ask for support if I can't login to my account? And the forgot password link it's not sending to my email. I think someone changed my email from your team.

  @Steam get your purchase **** fixed, I've been trying to purchase vampires all day and all I've done was run into problems because of my address which everything is correct. Give me my money back I'm done. Every time I try and purchase this game you're chipping off my money, I want all of my money back I paid $17.88 for this game and I'm not getting that back. You can't charge me for a refund, or get sued it's your choice
