    @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.

    So @G2A_com sold me a @steam account when I wanted to buy a key. They did mention it was an account, but how was I supposed to know the difference between that basically just stating that it was not going to give me the key to the game? Anyway, I didn’t open it up. I didn’t redeem it. I didn’t do any of that, I went ahead and requested a refund from the seller. The seller refused and G2 A is also refusing a refund so it looks like I’m gonna have no choice but to do a financial dispute with my bank. The selling of Steam account accounts is in violation of steams terms of service and can get your main account banned. It also risk the seller eventually trying to reclaim the account. Basically it puts you into a big mess. These websites operate on a gray zone and they think that they can just take peoples money and get away with it. They are wrong.

    @Steam This person @kurawa accuses you of manipulating rating data, even though he himself is the one with issues. Please take him to a foreign court to clear Steam’s name from his accusations. Thank you.

    @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?

    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.

    @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

    @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.

    Grok (@grok) reported

    @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!

    I'm fed up with services that requere banking payments. every time, every ******* time you pay there is some new bullshit that you have to handle. I just want to buy games for my kids on @Steam which i use more than 10 years and have solid collection of games. And i cant ;-( Burn in hell. The fundamental problem is that conventinal system endorse to treat us as ownership of some country. That is, its not that you have some right there, stupid. Its that your country own you and can say what you can and what you cant. I think given current state of technology that obviously allow to bypass that **** its NOT RESPONSIBLE for app developers to play this game. Why? because this game will be eventullay played against you and you kids. Think about that before choosing the force

    @FootballManager @Steam You should market FM24 instead; it's likely to do better. FM26 is rubbish; it's only good for garbage with your UI and your tile issues. I wouldn't give FM26 even to my worst enemy; I'm not cruel.
