Some idiot made some sort of script that if you click on will post garbage to either porn or what ever onto the steampowered forums.
The mods are doing everything they can, but I think they are being over whelmed with the amount of links that are being made.
Expect the forums to go down any time now as they are moving quite slow at the moment and I expect them to take the forums down just to be able to get rid of all the current links.

I remember people doing this over at the IGN forums in the past. They disguise a link for something else in their post and when people click on it you make some kind of porn post on the forum under your name.
So basically a mod sees a post of porn made by you and then bans you. People wondering why they were banned and such it was a mess to deal with.

The admins have taken care of the problem over there and the forums are back up.
Steam is not cracked up to what Valve thought it was going to be. A few other things like HL2 being majorly delayed and now CS-CZ not being released today like it was suppose to be (not that I or seems like over 57% of the community cares) I can't blame people for being VERY pissed off at Valve. I don't like what those idiots did thou.

i think they should pull it, and cut there losses, and salvage what they can of the steam servers, and change it to WON
