The "I EMAILED SOMEBODY AT VALVE!" thread, post your questions and replies here - Games

Everyone here seems to get autographs, while I don't even get a reply to anything. So, how do I get him to send me autographs? EDIT: [b]Can I get a tour of Valve/Will you autograph something for me?[/b] Yes and yes. In either case, send e-mail to [email]kathy@valvesoftware.com[/email] and CC: [email]gaben@valvesoftware.com[/email]. So that's how you do it!

[QUOTE=Raptor_S;29508169] He MUST reply![/QUOTE] You had to make release ep3 the only option. Also, if he says he reads ALL his emails, why don't we mail him a work of shakespeare?

Just sent Gabe pictures of a portrait I made of him, if he likes it I will mail it there. So how long has it taken to answer for you guys?

I can't find a valid reason to get something. I don't really want anything, it feels like karma will fuck me back :gonk:

I'm on full harassment mode now. [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1835520/snips/rwalker.JPG[/img] Let's see if he responds.

Also, I'm sure this is old news, but I've been sending e-mails back and forth with Mike Morasky for a bit and he told me a few days ago that he's working on full length versions of the songs in Portal 2. He also said that they'll be releasing them relatively soon, so my guess is within a few months.

I asked for some autographs and got a reply but I'm not sure what to make of it. [img]http://gyazo.com/ccef212e6eeb6dd90ea8927432fb28b3.png[/img] Do I give him my address? He didn't ask for my address. What do I say? :byodood:

[QUOTE=Raptor_S;29510886]Give him his adress.[/QUOTE] I have a feeling he knows his address :v:

[QUOTE=Painseeker;29510907]I have a feeling he knows his address :v:[/QUOTE] So give him your address, and say that it's his address.

Gabe didn't reply to my email. This means war.

Got a response! :D [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1835520/snips/rwalker2.JPG[/img]

I want to e-mail Valve but I don't know what I should ask them :confused: [editline]29th April 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Neddy;29510970]Gabe didn't reply to my email.

[QUOTE=ScreamingGerbil;29511232]Got a response! :D [img_thumb]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1835520/snips/rwalker2.JPG[/img_thumb][/QUOTE] Why do people get responses after only 2 hours when writing some unimportant bullshit (no offense), yet I have to wait forever to get a response on an actual question? :smith:

[QUOTE=ghiacciato;29514436]Why do people get responses after only 2 hours when writing some unimportant bullshit (no offense), yet I have to wait forever to get a response on an actual question? :smith:[/QUOTE] It's usually much easier to respond to unimportant bullshit. All of my serious e-mails have also been left un-answered. First pageking ever!

[img]http://gyazo.com/9f8a34bb1c16d38dd91768206114eefe.png[/img] I asked him what kind of pen he used to sign autographs. I asked him for a drawing of his pen, using said pen. :v:

I asked him about the Portal 2 SDK.When do you guys think I'll get a reply?

[QUOTE=w0lfeh;29516610]I asked him about the Portal 2 SDK.When do you guys think I'll get a reply?[/QUOTE] They usually answer more silly things. Not informative stuff.

The only time I emailed Gabe was last year. I didn't know what to say, so asked him if there would be any dinosaurs in Portal 2. He never answered me back... :smith:

I've emailed Gabe twice in the last three months with bugs/exploits I've found in the steam community, never gotten an email back but they always seem to be fixed a day or two after.

Holy...Fucking..shit.. As some of you may know..I make mirrors. I sandblast images onto them and sometimes sell them because of how nice they look. I mostly make valve mirrors involving tf2, portal, and other great games by valve. Here are some of my past projects: [url]http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1100368[/url] A while back I sent a SAXTON HALE mirror to Robin Walker. He sent me some free stuff and some goodies and everything was awesome. Recently I learned that I'm going to the Penny Arcade Expo in Washington. I later learned that Valve is relatively close to Seattle. I emailed Robin asking him if I can take a tour shortly after PAX and asked him if he would like another mirror. I got an email saying I can go on tour. All I can say is..I'm going to the happiest place on earth. Disneyland can go fuck itself.

Jealous [editline]4th May 2011[/editline] one day I'll do something slightly creative and get a tour of valve HQ That is if steam stops having awesome sales all the fucking time

Disneyland should be upgraded into the next location for Valve HQ.

Oh god the entire staff at Valve are just amazing to be sending all these emails like this. Good on them for having a sense of humor and being friendly with everyone.
