Someone has posted some stuff and some links to post on the steam forums... I was gonna go there and make a comment so i signed up and over joyed

to find that you have to wait several days for an admin to get around to reviewing an manually enableing your account...

The message I sent to the webmaster....

Quote:

Why do you do this? I'd like to post on the forum.... I would of sent a pm to as ask about this but i can't even do that..... this is the second day I've tried to make a post and still can't....

to quote your site after I activated my account useing the email u sent...

Quote:

"Thank you for registering. Your account has been submitted for moderation by an administrator and will be activated shortly. You will be notified by email when this happens. To return to the forums...."

If I try to post

Quote:

"You do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:
You do not have permission to access the page that you were trying to. Are you trying to edit someone else's post or trying to access administrative features? Check that you are allowed to perform this action in the Forum Rules.
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation. "

how many more days before I can post? this is kind of rediculas I'm a member on a dozen foums and never have i seen one make you wait days before u can post....

If they reply I'll post what they send becouse that is redicaulas...

What thier doing over there..

Heh, I'm sure you've seem me on those forums then. I have the same username...

Steam forums suck ass now: No sigs, no post count, no location, no avatar, no custom title, 60 sec for every post, no cussing, no flaming, BLAH!

82% (I actually made this test) of threads/posts are either related to flaming, one's that don't help worth jack, dumbasses who think they know everything, or n00bs (<-- biggest one!)

I cannot even link to my site on the Geocities domain because it's starred out because Steam said that most hacks are linked to Geocities. That's total bullshit, and now I have to use URL forwarding.

Death to Steam!
