I wonder what happened to that whole crusade about shutting down the sales groups. Maybe someone jumped the gun without approval from the higher up.

Looks like it got shutdown for having Origin deals.

Quote from Hookups: I ask you all to close your tickets with Support regarding Hookups being shutdown. They have received an enormous amount of tickets regarding this group, there is no need to fight with them anymore since the group is back.
This was a long battle to get this group back. The things that are changing is that we can not post anymore Origin Deals Ever! That was the main issue they had with Hookups. Any deal that supports Steam and directs people to use Steam like all the Steam deals from GreenManGaming, GamersGate, and Amazon and other sites like that are ok. But we can't post any competitors like Origin.

IMO origin is terrible and I hate using it, but I think this was a poor move by valve... really, why do people use origin? Because ea won't put the game on steam.
But hey, they are protecting their business interest, their platform rather than sales. They could just as easy have banned the gmg and what not deals.

Clicky.
In case you were unaware, the group got mysteriously shut down by Valve a week or two ago along with Trader's Guild. It's pretty much a community devoted to spreading good deals on Steam games.
Edit: Trader's Guild is now back too!
