Why the hell is it always down? It has little to no features in the first place. Such a simple chat program should run flawlessly.

Because it's Valve. That's why. Go back to xfire? Haha.

Great post and I agree heartily but you might wanna send this to Valve employees and STEAM staff aswell.


-also-

I believe Steam chat is interconnected with a bunch of features, like the "Join Game / Invitation to games" and *Friend name* is now playing *Game name* and most of the time when steam chat goes down, new games are added to the list of games you can buy, so i assume it's somewhat related, annoying nonetheless and poor design decision.

Steam is old, its bareley changed for 5 years I have been using it.
  • The server browser is horrible I dont knwo what order it is in but it certainly is not alphabetical.
  • All games I own show in the server browser regardless of being installed, WHY?
  • The entire list of all games I own refreshes when I quti a game WHY?
  • The colums don't stay as I leave them when I restart steam.
That is just for the server browser, there are many other things wrong with steam.

Its all part of the diabolical plan of little green men from the planet of Omacron to take over the earth.

steam friends goes down way too many times. usually when im in the middle of a conversation. the matchmaking system of l4d is also tied to steam friends so it breaks the game when it goes down. cool.

It's due to the TF2 update, server overload.

This. I can handle losing conversations but not being able to access group servers or create lobbies in Left 4 Dead drives me NUTS.

It goes down when they are fixing or updating something. And it is connected with all your stats and achievements, groups and friends. That's why they have a friends limit, it used to be 150 but nowadays is 250 because some of the users complained about it.
