No, this isn't lame this is the proper way for the server to work.
Just because you don't have to use safetybelts on your private racetrack doesn't mean you shouldn't use them, and ripping them out of the car just leads to other more serious problems.

::: Venting mode on ::: I still think Steam blows. In addition: why a dedicated LAN server does a validation on a client on the same LAN is beyond me. I guess that LAN parties require an internet connection, or the participants need to setup the PC before leaving home. Am I the only one who thinks that is LAME? I am all for protecting a copyright, but Steam seems to be a real PItA for legit users AND it obviously hasn't kept the pirates and hackers away. I wish someone would port the CS mod to the farcry engine. ::: Venting mode off :::
Thanks for your attention, Dave Z

Change your default gateway to an invalid local address (or blank) and packets wont be able to find there way out, re-login or restart the machine will force steam to restart, not finding home will start in offline mode and should stop steam ticket errors.
