What's wrong with Steam today? - Games

Today after getting on Steam, I noticed that I was offline and that there was barely anyone on! [img]http://img12.imageshack.us/img12/8729/odd1.png[/img] I talked to a friend and I noticed this weird spike in the stats. So what the heck is going on here? [img]http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/3184/odd2o.png[/img] UPDATE: "Ups and downs" have appeared in stats: [img]http://img30.imageshack.us/img30/664/updateodd2.png[/img] UPDATE #2: Looks like friends are coming back online. Still offline, though (for some reason I can talk to people) [highlight](User was banned for this post ("Questions about Steam don't belong here; read the sticky" - rilez))[/highlight]

It's offline right now, friend just messaged me about how steam was being fat :v:

I'm no expert, but it would appear a lot of people went offline at about the same time, then came back, and repeated that process several times.

Most people can't connect to the Steam website nor networks right now, myself included.

Oh shit, the hackers may have moved onto steam :ohdear:

The same thing has happened to me. It always leaves at least one person on my friends list online. They can't respond, so this is what happens. [quote]Roger: LAMBO Roger: WHAT IS HAPPENING Roger: I'M SCARED Roger: ARE YOU GOD Roger: BECAUSE I SWEAR Roger: I'M SORRY FOR NOT BELIEVING Lambronious has changed their name to CHECK YOU ***** PAGE. CHECK YOU ***** PAGE has changed their name to CHECK YOUR PROFILE . CHECK YOUR PROFILE has changed their name to I CANT TALK. I CANT TALK has changed their name to WHATS HAPPENING. Roger: I DON'T KNOW Roger: BUT MY PAGE ISN'T ANY DIFFERENT WHATS HAPPENING has changed their name to HELP ME. HELP ME has changed their name to I KNOW I WAS GOING TO COMMENT. I KNOW I WAS GOING TO COMMENT is now Offline. I KNOW I WAS GOING TO COMMENT is now Online. I KNOW I WAS GOING TO COMMENT has changed their name to BUT IT WASNT WORK.[/quote] And this isn't the first time it's happened, either.

I has happened. Zero Hour is now upon us.

Okay good, I'm not the only one.

Can't wait for that "Remember June 13th, 2011" Steam group.

Wait, it isn't Friday. Ah whatever I don't really care.

It's online for me.

It's working for me now

I can log in, but there it says friends is offline

Just started working again for me less than a minute ago.

Back online. It's over.

Yep, think it's fine now.

I can't login still. Fuck me.

Don't be mean to Steam :(. It's been providing us with 24/7 entertainment, night and day; I say its about time we let Steam have a rest for a change :unsmith: for the record things are still messy

Its working now. Meh, damn servers broken again.

Weird. Why did both FP and Steam go down around the same time today?

Difference is, back then it took a week to fix. Now, it can take less than a day.

Steam has been randomly crashing for me over the past few days.
