IMHO, I think that the main point to see here is that Ragnarok Online "DID" something about the problem and Valve has done "NOTHING"! No public announcement, no acknowledgement, no fix, no attempts even. They just pocket the money and turn their monitors away from this list and the issues with their product. The main selling point of STEAM was to allow them to patch the games silently, quickly and effectively and the only thing we've seen them do so far in this issue is to sell their products and damn the bugs. They just released a game without the full line of it's contents, features that is FULL of bugs and people are running to their checkbooks to get it. They are demonstrating some of the worst business practices in the business and the common public is falling all over themselves to spend their money with this company. *Sad* IMHO, they are doing it for the hype that they gave the game and the reputation they are ruining.

I mean, the only reason I sent the information to this list was so server operators could effectively ban these twits, not so we could all sit around and poke fun at VALVe and whatever they may or may not have anticipated. Before you start bagging VALVe out, look around at some of the other companies. Ragnarok Online just had it's entire database of users leaked, few months ago they had a huge outbreak of hacked accounts and had to roll back their entire system several days. Things could be a -LOT- worse over here. Bruce "Bahamut" Andrews Napier, Kevin wrote: >"" But...can they do it again? "" > >Not likely at this point.
