D'awww. They do care!

So let this be a reminder guys, they are busy people. Replies can sometimes take up to weeks, but they usually do get back to you. If it's only been a week or two, be patient.

[Chaotic Lord]

So Hopefully A few valve people will be able to answer my questions for my english paper.

[Frying Dutchman]

Remember that I emailed Valve to ask for something that I could gift to my girlfriend?
Well today I wanted to give it to here seeing as today is special for us, however she broke up with me.

This is what I got though.

[quote]Hey Mary, first off I'd like to say you're an amazing person, and have made many people happy.

I've always been a fan of portal and portal 2, aswell as team fortress 2, and I was wondering if you perhaps have some spare goodies I could have? I can even make you a MS paint drawing of something if you want me to!

If not, I can understand, you have a busy job.

Many greetings and love from Kirbyfactor![/quote]

I send her this, hope I atleast get a reply

[Kefirman]

I sent Gabe a mail regarding if the videogame development market was a risk worth taking education-wise a week ago.
No response. Should I send a shorter one easier to respond to, wait nor not bugger him about it?

This thread used to be about funny replies to silly questions we asked famous valve employees, the last 10 or so pages its been about begging the front desk for gifts.

Nobody on facepunch cares about the shit you got for begging the frontdesk for gifts.

[loony383]

Just emailed Valve regarding webdev stuff, hoping for a response.

Does she just send out whatever she wants?

Man.. jackpot.

I want a DoTA 2 T-shirt.. but asking for one would be pretty.. rude.

Can't buy one yet?

[VistaPOWA]

I just received a long-sleeved shirt with a nice "The Cake is a Lie" print on it.
Oh yeah.

[QUOTE][B]Jess Cliffe [/B]
While attending Virginia Tech, Jess co-created the original Counter-Strike. You may have heard his voice yell, “Counter-Terrorists Win!” once or twice. Ask him to say it; he loves that. These days, Jess can be found working on Left 4 Dead 2 and attempting to toilet train his cat Gonk. He’s this close.
