Forgot to ask before, but how'd you get your account back anyways?

Good to see you've got it back though. Guess Valve is pretty trustworthy.

i used 2 do that to people in online games

worked quite often

Wow...since your account got jacked, I just realized that there is a GBATemp Steam group...wow...I'll play Team Fortress 2 with you guys sometime!

Never give your passwords ! :/

 

[pkprostudio]

Well, thank you very much Steam for disabling my account now.

 

[pkprostudio]

Fuck you VALVe.

 

[jesterscourt]

pkpro, did this ever get resolved?

 

[Mangofett]

I'm assuming yes, since it says hes online right now :\

I just got mine re-enabled, and no explanation whatsoever why it was in the first place. First thing I did was change my password and secret question, but as I'm really only playing Bioshock and HL2 anymore, I'm really curious as to what exactly happened.

I actually got disabled again after that. But now it's working fine. Just hate the system.

No offense, but don't blame the system for your own lapse of judgment. Hell, I think they disabling your account may have been a good thing, seeing as someone could've been trying to report that YOU had hijacked THEIR account. They probably had to shut it down fully to do an investigation first and determine who the real owner was.

But what do I know, I'm a security admin at work and I do this kind of stuff all the time (and no, I'm not joking when I say people who steal accounts will use that as a ploy).
