Could the police trace back your location through your steam account?
>>52397315
they'd probably just go to steam and ask them for server logs
>>52397347
I used a VPN, but I'm worried they could track it in it's current state, i.e now when I'm at home
>>52397390
If you ever logged in to that account at home, or the account has any info that can be linked to you (email, CC, etc) then it's possible.
Nobody goes to jail for saying faggot on a steam game, stop pissing your pants.

I'm guessing OP either rage DDOS'd someone like a 'sperg or stole games.
>>52400054
Why?
>>52399823
Fortunately my location isn't set anywhere on steam, not are any methods to contact me. I'm quite afraid so I may go into hiding ahaha

Creative Commons Fraud :^)

Let's find out! :)

>No location set on Steam, therefore I'm safe.
Steam has records of connected IP addresses, which can be linked to your address. Furthermore, if you've paid for anything using a service that knows your address, like PayPal or a credit card, they'll court order their record on you as well.
They'll be able to kick down your door so fast it'll make your head spin.
>>52397315
Oh shit, the fuck did you do OP? Scam someone?
>commit felonies in order to play VIDEO GAMES
>unaware that Steam can and does easily log all IP addresses
Wow.
>>52400226
Something that can get me time, yes
>>52400232
Whyd you do it? For fame? For Glory? For money?
>>52400762
VIDEO GAMES
>>52400232
How fucking retarded can you be holy shit
>>52401001
Reminds me of that thread a while back.
Some dude stole a credit card, made a new steam then transferred it all to his teal steam address. All on the same computer.
He thought it was foolproof and bragged about it on here. Wonder how bad he got ducked for 200+ in games/theft.
>I'm so hardcore, I call jail "time"
They log a shitload of things about your PC for fraud protection. Yes, they absolutely can trace you, OP.
>>52397315
Good Operational Security would probably involve not playing Video Games, atleast from your home line.

Yeah, I remember that thread.
If you stole CC, it won't be steams who will be tracking you. The bank has all the info police needs.

If you live in Britain, you'll get thrown in prison for saying negative things about Blacks and Jews on the internet:

Germany now literally has former Stasi agents monitoring facebook comments for "hate propaganda" against asylum seekers, and offenders may lose custody of their children.

Better lock up 90% of /g/. And nothing of value would be lost.
