Hi people.

Every so often a user will go to change their email, and never receive the new email confirmation. They then get locked out of their account. I'm not sure the cause of the bug, and it doesn't happen to everyone, but clearly it happens to some people.

If this has happened to you, please add me on Steam (Search for stumpo or stumpokapow, avatar is a dog) and PM me your account username and email. I will get it solved for you in a day or two.

DO NOT contact me if you have registered a GAF account but it was never activated to begin with. I do not deal with account activations, I cannot and will not help you about that. ONLY contact me if you are a current GAF user who got locked out of their account accidentally.

Can an activated member switch to a free email?
Just occurred to me right now, might be losing my ISP email soonish.

We do not typically allow this. If you get in a situation where you have absolutely no qualifying email, PM me and we will try to work something out.

(Sorry, I didn't want to derail the thread like this, I've just done a few of these requests lately and wanted to make sure anyone who needed that service was able to get it)

OK, thanks. One worry out of my mind... replaced by another, finding another email...
Was planning on changing ISP but not sure if others offer email.
Ah, well, i hope i won't have any problems until i get a proper email, i'll switch it then. EDIT looks like they do offer email. Good.

And sorry for OT.

They should put women in CSGO/nextCS, not like the hyper sexualized ones pictured here of course, but respectably. I was kinda excited when I saw the Anarchists in CSGO office and thought they were girls, but it turns out it was just a bunch of hipster dudes with tight pants.

Why? It's not as if there are a whole lot of examples of female terrorists or counter-terrorists in real life which can be easily translated to a semi-realistic fake modern world based on our own. The whole point is semi-realistic teams which are uniform in composition and character.

How odd...Trine 2 actually runs better for me than the first game. I could barely manage 62 fps in Trine 1, yet I'm getting 80-90 fps with SSAA enabled in Trine 2.

Hey Stumpokapow, I'm trying to send you a PM regarding an error I get when trying to change my e-mail address, but it seems your inbox is full and my message can not get through. Let me know when you have made some space so that I can clear this issue with you via PM or I could add you on steam, whichever you prefer. Thanks

BTW, sorry for using this thread to resolve a problem with nothing to do with steam

Holy shit, I was looking at COH2 and I noticed "Includes 362 Steam Achievements" is that some sort of non valve record?

Do these on gamers gate activate on steam? Also how long will this sale last?
Click to expand...

Nope. And since this is... the Steam thread, I'm assuming you want them on Steam.

Good news for you is there's no doubt the King's Bounty platinum pack will be at least 75% off in the upcoming Steam Summer Sale.

Also, considering where we are, the people asking "does this recommendation activate on Steam" is perfectly understandable.

Valve Employee said:
The current plan is to update game counts this week. We are thinking of this:
Profile "Games" link shows only game count, no DLC and no free games
Game Collector badge uses this new number
Game Collector showcase shows DLC count and Game count

Also we Valve employees will not get the Game Collector badge, our count will effectively be whatever we bought before joining Valve... so I'll probably have to kick myself out of the group

Ah...is that a new sub? I feel like there was a reason why I never played this game when I bought it as part of the Strategy First bundle years and years ago, but I can't remember what the reason was. Maybe it was a considered a large download back then.
Click to expand...

I'm unsure of why it's returned, but only through that link. The same has happened with a few other games recently, the original Two Worlds vanilla for example.

Would you guys say Black Ops is worth the $16 with the code? While I'm not too fond of the 4 hour campaigns that have become the staple of CoD and I don't play the MP, I do enjoy the setpieces and I've yet to play zombies on the PC versions of the games.

Are some Steam codes automatically added to your library if you redeem them? My new GPU came with a code for Metro: Last Light and I'm not really sure I'd play it. I don't want to redeem it myself unless I know I can add it to my inventory instead of my library, though.

I think that keys you redeem are directly added to your library.

That's a real steal. The King's Bounty games are fantastic and packed to brim with content. Even if you're somewhat interested in TBS but put off by the slow pace of games like Heroes and Disciples, this series is still worth checking out as they have real time movement and questing so it will feel much faster paced.
