-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Now if I knew the reason why would I be making a support request asking why? WTF kind of "official" response is this? Am I suppose to maintain maturity in a world of children? Give me a break. I went over the top sure. What I want to know is what rule I broke to have an account with every Valve game on it disabled and I think, as a consumer I deserve an "official" response more than "you know why".
