The correct way to say that is, "Yes, I know I have bad punctuation. I'm trying to improve it."

Ok.. How many of you have managed to get steam, and have updated CS? How many haven't got that far? Finally, how many are a little pissed that they've updated but can't play?

So who was lucky enough to get a low ID number? I don't know why Eric Johnson made it sound like it's that important, though.

It's just saying Counter-Strike is not available now. :\

yes i got it i don't understand i thought it was free, anyway it didn't ask me my credit card number : )

oh yeah i forgot valve said there will be no billing or credit card information yet, it just sounded weird b/c i know that with all the HL2 subscription information that you can pay 9.99$ monthly to get all the valve games.

No kidding. All that did was insure that more people would skip school/work to try and download right away, thereby flooding the servers and sucking all the bandwith.



Who gives a crap if their ID number, which is stored deep in your Steam folder, is low? No one ever sees it, right? It's not gonna say "heldorado, 5 kills, 1 death, 30 ping, ID number 0001" on the scoreboard or anything.

Every time i try and connect to Steam, not only can I not play CS (well obviously!), but my router complains and my net connection goes down... Grrrrrrrrr. I'm not prepared to turn my equipment off and on every five minutes just to try again. Hopeless.
