Bumb fucking deal...
I got to try out the promotional Steam account I have and... apparently I don't have it anymore. No more HL2, EP1, or EP2.. among many other games. That sucks so much.

Not bad for someone who hasn't played in 6 months and can count on three fingers the number of games he's played for more than one hour apiece over the past 6 years.

My steam id is too old for that website to use. LoL. Old Skool fail. I guess if you were one of the original steam users you have a steamcomunity.com/profiles/xxxx type address and it wont read it. Oh well.

I'm curious to know whether or not it actually tells what you actually payed for. I got the C&C pack for like $20 total, but I pre-ordered BF:BC2 for $50...even though it says 29.99.

Oh well, maybe I'll track it like a stock portfolio. "OMG, HL2 WENT UP 10 POINTS!!!"

I dont think it goes by what you paid for it at the time but rather current non-sale prices

*just weeps over his lost promotional account*

I only have like $250-some on my account now.
The promotional account would have been $2000+ easy. So. Much. Free. Shit. I want to try contacting Valve but I'm not sure what to tell them. They could barely even troubleshoot that account before.

So what do you mean promotional account? Did you somehow trick them into giving you free crap or something...and if so, I'm curious to know how. =D

In semi-layman's terms my company hosts a lot of Valve's content and has been for maybe 6 years or so--effectively since Steam was released. In those early days my company was given a number of such accounts to give to its employees. Being as small as we were at the time, and everyone knowing I'm a gamer, I was offered one of the accounts.

Of course as the company has gotten larger we little people have seen fewer and fewer such perks. Knowing the common stupidity of companies, such perks probably go to salespeople now, who are gone within 3-4 months.

Through that account I got all the core Half-Life games from the original to Episode 2, Portal, TF2, and a slew of Steam's lesser games. X3:Reunion popped up on there, too, though I already owned it standalone.

When I was made a server admin here I discovered that the Community features of the promotional account weren't really present so, feeling a need to be reachable by the clan, I got a normal account and bought TF2. So now all I have are TF2 and a couple others. Ho hum...

Edit: Meh. Opened a ticket. I can log into the support website with the credentials, so I know the account isn't gone-gone.
Edit 2: And, as expected, I'm already getting the runaround. Nobody at Valve tech support seems to comprehend that this is a special account.
