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.

You guys (not specifically you) are really bagging VALVe out too much
over this. 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.

Not likely at this point. (I wish them luck though.)
