So, the innocent people who use the autohotkey macro should be punished because it comes with their legitimate software?? You are seriously misguided! It is unfortunate that there are people like you to wish bad things on people who did nothing wrong.

February 10th, 2012 Dear Steam Users and Steam Forum Users: We continue our investigation of last year’s intrusion with the help of outside security experts. In my last note about this, I described how intruders had accessed our Steam database but we found no evidence that the intruders took information from that database. That is still the case. Recently we learned that it is probable that the intruders obtained a copy of a backup file with information about Steam transactions between 2004 and 2008. This backup file contained user names, email addresses, encrypted billing addresses and encrypted credit card information. It did not include Steam passwords. We do not have any evidence that the encrypted credit card numbers or billing addresses have been compromised. However as I said in November it’s a good idea to watch your credit card activity and statements. And of course keeping Steam Guard on is a good idea as well. We are still investigating and working with law enforcement authorities. Some state laws require a more formal notice of this incident so some of you will get that notice, but we wanted to update everyone with this new information now. Gabe

Think again! :D

I only had one issue with GS.com. I submitted a ticket with them and it was fixed within 1-2 days. But, I usually only rent cod4 servers from them. So, I do not know what issues they have with games that use a lot more resources like the Battlefield series.

No, I3D allowed us access to one of their servers to debug streaming issues.

Global Bans are from Even Balance, the creators of the Punkbuster software. If you played in-game and received a global ban, then you will have to submit a trouble ticket to them and ask why. We are PBBans and have no affiliation with Even Balance. Here is the ticket link for COD1: http://www.evenbalance.com/troubleticket/new_ticket.php?game=cod You may also want to read this post about global bans: http://www.pbbans.com/global-punkbuster-ban.html

I use the BF3 skin:

I don't know if most of you know this, but, there are a lot of different addons for Teamspeak 3. They have some cool themes to use, including BF3 and CODMW3 skins. Here is the link: http://addons.teamspeak.com/

That must be one powerful dedicated server to host that type of game. lol
