Happy steam-day, I'm still a good bit off I think, but thanks for the consolation giveaway

Started with valve due 1.5 Counter Strike back in the day. No steam yet at the time though. Had to switch over eventually once I got access to 1.6 CS. Should have waited for the orange box to get the best deal, but alas I bought some cs+hl2 bundle that didn't have TF2.
Oh and congratz!
My 14 year old badge coming up before the end of this year too! Man time flies by fast.

I just checked my profile and I joined on the 12th Oct 2007! Guess I'll celebrate getting an email to come back to this site and my 10th steam year by giving stuff away!

Congrats on your decennial! As a Steam-teen, I remember holding out for as long as possible before reluctantly caving and making a Steam account just because I wanted to play Counter-Strike 1.6, and the bastards made Steam mandatory at one point!

Congrats on reaching 10 years and thanks for the group invite.
Feb 2004 for me and I believe Counter-Strike was the reason.

Congrats on this 10year celebration. :)
Started myself with Condition Zero which i got as bonus to my video card, but already made an account a couple months earlier - I believe for CS 1.6?

Congrats! I too remember the old days of gaming and having to make up autoexec.bat files and change irq ports for specific games to run. Before that I was changing floppys on my commodore 64. Not sure I miss those dark days to be honest - but it was fun at the time :)
Bought half-life 2 on release day and have been on steam ever since (so just shy of 13 years now).

Congrats on the milestone, Nudi. I've been on Steam for about 14 years, myself (Counter-Strike Beta). I resisted buying anything on it for as long as I could, but...
Khalaq is actually my second Steam account. I got hacked and lost my first account.

Oh man, that sucks. Did you lose a lot with your prior account?

What was the beginning of time like? Bet it was pretty cool, but I also hear it's not what it used to be.

Missing one year :( :P
Congrats. I may not be yet that old, but I'm close to that.

Congrats on the milestone :D.
I just hit the 10 year mark myself last month. Hard to believe it has been 10 years since I was in high school ;-;.
I don't want to get old ;-;

Well, you know what they say, you're only as old as you feel.
Of course this is a blatant lie; eventually you're just old.

I used to know someone who was in their late 70's that I was convinced was no older then their mid-40's. I didn't believe them until they showed me their drivers license. Some people age very well.

Oh my, what's this? Enhanced Steam actually hands out balloons and streamers on your Steam birthday. (It's just Enhanced Steam, Valve doesn't care. :-P)) To be honest, my birthday, cake day and Steam day are all pretty close to each other, so this one snuck up on me. I don't usually do anything special, but hey, balloons. And it's 10 years. Remember the Orange Box? That's only slightly older. And I am, of course, much older than that. Son, back in my day we got instruction manuals, on paper, the size of a small house, telling us how to move the magnets up and down to twiddle the bits on the tape in the proper way just so we could play a game...
So let's do something a little special for the occasion. There will be one giveaway that is open only to people who've been on Steam for 10 years or more, at the day I turned 10 (2017-10-23). Because why not? Now, I can't pick a game for the occasion, so you get to do it for me: it's going to be a wishlist giveaway. Entry token for the giveaway is to be determined when I've gathered enough folks to make it fair. To join, request an invite for this Steam group. The GA is not up yet, so there's no rush (and don't get disheartened if I don't respond immediately, I'm not online for most of the day). Feel free to share this with anyone you like. The group is solely for administrative purposes; there will be no spam, promotional links, chats or anything else like that.
For all the people who haven't reached the big 1-0 yet (like I hadn't, yesterday), rejoice in the flower of your youth! Also, of course there's a consolation giveaway. I hope it takes your fancy -- finding something nice on Steam these days isn't easy.
Bonus: give it up for Caractacus, a fellow Steam day celebrator, and the lovely giveaway that comes with it.
