this gave me a long "lol" followed by an "omfg I can't believe this bullshit". I bought HL:2 with CS:S In August of this year, had a few extra bucks, and it was on sale. Create a steam account, install the games etc. Don't play too often, but good games in general. Today I log on to steam, launch some cs:s, join my favourite server, get this f'n message that says "this account no longer owns this cd key"... WTF? Change all my passwords, email, contact info and what not. Go try Half life 2 deathmatch, it works. Go back to cs:s, won't let me join vac secured, but all others I can join and only spectate, what a load of bullshit. So I think i'm gonna wait a couple days, try some shit and if that doesn't work, fuck steam and VAC.

In conclusion, i'd like to say how much I hate the way Steam make cd key and account theft so easy. I got a few other friends who've had their accounts and cd keys jacked, and it happens to me after owning a steam account for only 2 months. In this case, I think Gamespy+PB > Steam+Vac.

You spent $30 on Source? 1.6 is $10 and a better game. Wow.

Buy three 1.6 keys with that.

It's a problem for everyone, u just gotta go under properties, and then check integrity, then problems fixed.

And my uncle payed for it, sorta a birthday present.

Take a picture of you original box, purchase reciept and serial key, mail those to STEAM HQ, and they will reset your key since you can prove you are the owner.
