Steam Community friend invites/groups thread

Post by Hamel »

Those on Steam: are you familiar with Steam Community?

From the Steam Community web site:
* Easily see your friends online
* Schedule group events
* Create a SteamID user profile
* Create and join groups

* Access Steam from within any game
* Track gameplay stats
* New chat rooms and game lobbies
* Voice chat in-game or out
The purpose of this thread is for exchanging Steam home page URLs so we can have a gander at each other's profiles, maybe even get on each other's friend lists, or even join or start a group.

Here's mine, you may have to login with your SteamID first. You don't have to register if you already have a Steam account.

"Right now we can tell you a report was filed by the family of a 12 year old boy yesterday afternoon alleging Mr. Michael Jackson of criminal activity. A search warrant has been filed and that search is currently taking place. Mr. Jackson has not been charged with any crime. We cannot specifically address the content of the police report as it is confidential information at the present time, however, we can confirm that Mr. Jackson forced the boy to listen to the Howard Stern show and watch the movie Private Parts over and over again."

Is anyone else having a problem where after a few minutes of play, they get booted off a server with the message "your steam connection has been lost"? I can't tell if it's specific to HL1 mods, because that's all I have. I've not been playing for a month or two because it's impossible.

You may need to fiddle with your router. I had a connection problem a few months ago and opening up a certain port fixed it. Steampowered.com has a support section which could give you all the details.

I, too, have now joined the group.
どうして?お前が夜に自身お触れるから。
Long ago in a distant land, I, Aku, the shape-shifting Master of Darkness, unleashed an unspeakable evil,
but a foolish samurai warrior wielding a magic sword stepped forth to oppose me. Before the final blow
was struck, I tore open a portal in time and flung him into the future, where my evil is law! Now, the fool
seeks to return to the past, and undo the future that is Aku...

Aaand the problem is gone as mysteriously as it appeared. Whatever.
