and a note, this is because i dont use the mobile authenticator
maybe you should use the mobile authenticator then idiot???
>New browser?
>Locked for 7 days
>Don't want to give them my phone number for the authentication?
>Locked for 7 days after every purchase
>Tried to trade without an Authenticator?
>Item locked for 48 hours
>>322084720
Fucking use the authenticator, fuckboy.
I'm not seeing a problem.
>>322084661
But if someone had stolem your account you'd be bitching that why valve doesn't do shit to counter the hackers and scammers, right?
It's just a counter measure to protect retards from scammers.
Blame it on idiots and faggots stealing virtual items.
>>322084830
>Don't want to give them my phone number for the authentication?
Found your problem
You can blame the Russians.
>>322084851
>>322084787
>Hand Valve your phone number after their latest example of excellent security
Maybe if they cut their obvious "farm phone numbers" tactic and offered an offline, App-only based public authenticator like EVERY OTHER GAME, SERVICE AND BANK ON EARTH I would both.
>>322084851

Which subreddit did you come out of?
I know your pain. I don't even own a cell phone and i don't plan on buying one anytime soon. Guess i'll just keep putting up with this shit.

>Trion
>Rift
>Aion
>Wildstar
>Guild Wars 2
>WoW
All these games and services can run authenticators that don't require a phone number. Valve has an ulterior motive if they refuse to run public key authenticators like everyone else.
>Never had Steam
>All these delicious tears, shills and fanboy apologists
This is why you should buy your games instead of rent them.
>>322084963
tf are you talking about lad. Almost all services use a mobile authentication. I know the 2 banks I've used did.
>>322084830
Thank the fucking retards who fall for every scam in the world and give out their password to anyone who whispers them and claims to be gaben, then goes crying at valve and threatening with lawsuits to get his shitty knife skins back.
>>322084963
OH NO THEY HAVE MY PHONE NUMBER
WHAT WILL I EVER DO???
Fuck off.
>>322085052
Welp, looks like you're just going to have to wait like a good little bitch until Daddy Gaben's ready to wreck your boihole.
>>322085141
>Almost all services use a mobile authentication.
See
>>322085102
None of these services authenticators require a mobile phone, they are public key authenticators. My bank is a public key auth, doesn't need a phone number.

Not at all anon, if my account got hacked it'd most likely be my fault. Stop assuming shit.
>>322085141
My bank asks for a mobile authentication but doesn't lock you out from certain features or require you to use one.
>>322084661
Why are they making you wait until July?
>>322085141
You're confusing an authenticator that runs as an app on a phone (or tablet) with an authenticator that requires a phone number.
My Google and Battle.net accounts both have an authenticator, neither of which requires a phone number to use. Valve's does not.
>>322085263
I got your meme right here, anon.

That's how retarded you sound like right now.
>>322085302

>>322085139

What's with Steam and Subway analogies?
>>322085508
A helpful feature since your account is being used to complete strangers every day without your knowledge.
>People complain about account being hacked and items stolen
>Steam implements more security
>People bitch about more security
What?
>>322084661
so the ching chongs don't trade all your shit when they hack your fuccboi account
>>322085302
So here you are bitching like a little pussy about valve, but naturally you wouldn´t do that in any way if your account got hacked.
Believable story.
>>322084661
Not totally unreasonable. Then again, literally every time I log into steam from chrome it has me do the authentication code email, which is flat-out retarded.
>>322085448
>same subway guy
>>322085448
but now the same subway store wants your phone number so they can check your future purchases
wat do
>>322085448
I admit I laugh every time someone posts this
>>322085302
>Not at all anon, if my account got hacked it'd most likely be my fault. Stop assuming shit.
Yeah sure, whatever you say chief.
I've seen countless of threads about retards getting their shit stolen and STILL blaming it on valve for not protecting their shit.
I wish I had screen capped some of those threads.
>>322086106
The past 10 years of using Steam my account hasn't been hacked and I'm confident that I can keep my personal to myself.
>Believable story.
>That unbelievable story about uh.. uh..
You have no clue what the fuck you're talking about at this point.
>>322086412
Obviously just a ploy by qt3.14 sandwich artist to get my phone number. I'll play along for now...
>>322085448
>food analogies
#2 biggest indicator of idiocy after Hitler/Nazi analogies.
>>322086439
All those posts are actually me.
Every single thread that has came up about people crying about their shit being stolen are all me.
Yeah whatever you say chief.
>>322086545
>name calling
#2 biggest indicator of saltiness after distillation.
>>322085770
So? It's not like I'm losing access to my games. Complaining about that would be like a software company complaining about people distributing copies of their software. No one is actually losing anything, just other people gaining. It's a philanthropic utopia, and I'm glad to be part of it.
>>322086421
The herione sandwich one is still the best
>>322084661
I don't even use steam but dude, you're asking people to defend 7 days with no inventory trade vs no inventory at all .
>>322086810
kek
>>322085448
but i don't own a phone, so it's like "i need gloves to make your sub but i don't have any gloves"
What is it with faggot nerds and Subwayincluding meexcluding delicious lolis
>>322084661
Obligatory account protection. Literally every website has one of those.
>>322084661
>OP doesn't have literally thousands of dollars worth of knifes and hats in his inventory
>>322085139
>All these delicious tears, shills and fanboy apologists
Tears because OP can't buy Steam cards for 7 days? Excuse me?
>>322084661
A bunch of fucking normies invaded Steam and ruined it for the rest of us by constantly getting scammed.
>>322085735
I swear it's one fucking guy. The subway thing isn't funny enough to be a meme.
>>322084963
>Hand Valve your phone number after their latest example of excellent security
Your phone number is and always has been public information, you dumb fucking retard.
And besides, who gives a shit who has your phone number? What kind of an autist are you?
just maximum security for your account and virtual hats
it's annoying but it makes sure dumbasses don't fuck up
WHO PC MASTER RACE HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>322087707
Post your phone here then, tough guy
>>322087835
It's already available, go fucking get it fatass.
AOL and Yahoo require phone numbers to get an account now. Discuss.
>>322087921
You're a pussy
Post your phone right here if you truly stand for your beliefs, else you know you're just spouting bullshit
>>322088073
I already said it's public information, can you not read?
It's a security feature to protect your shit from the retarded number of Russians that are constantly trying to scam Steam accounts. Same reason your market transactions are frozen for a week if you use an unverified new credit card, or if you just make an unusually high number of market transactions in a short time.
Their security features can all be pretty annoying though. My account still can't use the market for the rest of the week just because I added funds from a prepaid MasterCard that I got as a gift.
>>322088230
Can you?
>who gives a shit who has your phone number?
Then you wouldn't mind us having it :^)
>>322088290
I don't think you understand what public information is.
>>322088340
Are you gonna post your fucking phone here to prove your point or what?
>>322086993
>but i don't own a phone
:/
>>322088407
Not even him but that's fucking retarded logic.
There's a difference between acknowledging that a phone number is publicly available and can be looked up by basically anyone who has any other identifying information, and posting it on /v/ when some anon is clearly goading you into doing it. The first is standard, the second is basically inviting people to fuck with you.
I don't give a shit about my email being all over the damn internet for example, but I'm also not gonna just post it to some asshole on 4chan.
>>322086993
>but i don't own a phone
Then a corporation doesn't want your business. That's a sign that you are too abnormal to be a good customer. You probably have actual standards for the products you buy. For heaven's sakes, can't have that.
>>322084661
Youre not using mobile authenticator, dummy.
>>322088893
>damage controlling for that bullshitter
He said he doesn't gives a shit if anyone has his phone, and /v/ is included on "anyone"
>>322089060
the difference is that you are painting one person as a target
>>322086439
You can just go on their Facebook pages, in EVERY thread there are few shitters without SteamGuard screaming their ticket numbers demanding them to be answered.
>>322084830
>>322084661
how do you even use steam in a browser?
steam is a browser itself
just use steam itself retards goddamn ur so stupid
>>322089265
steambrowser is a realy shit browser to be honest relative.
>>322084661
You're not blocked in the client, use that one
>>322089265
Because of Enhanced Steam
>>322089345
yeah but why do you even need it?
i honestly only use it some times to wtach new games or buy them
>>322089415
I have no idea, but its slow as hell for me. Wanting to look things up gives me brain pains.

>>322090316
I'm not trying to trade though, it just shows this in my inventory, can't even put it on the market.
