Don't you agree? It's a pain to always get a code for every site that supports steam you go on.

It's troublesome. I would always have it off but the market and trading restriction forces me to enable it.

It remembers the computer you are entering so it asked me once for the platform and once for the web. Don't have problems with it.

I never had this problem. Steam guard only asks me for a code if I'm on a new device or new browser.

If Steam Guard is that annoying for you then you have something configured incorrectly or you're constantly clearing out your cookies. I've only ever had to use the one time pass for Steam Guard a few times.

Wait, every site? But Steam OpenID has nothing to do with your Steam Guard Login or am I mistaken now? Normally only Applications with a "regular" login should need this.

I never had a problem with account hi-jacking, so if steam wouldnt force me to use it for market features i would have left it turned off.

That's an incredibly stupid way to think.

"Well, my car's never been stolen, so I'll leave the keys in and leave it unlocked."
"Well, my house has never been burglarized, so I should just leave the doors unlocked."
"Well, my bank account has never been compromised, so I won't bother setting up a PIN."

You're a special kind of stupid, aren't you? Are you also the same kind of person who uses the same, incredibly unsecure password for all of his accounts and then blames the company when their account is compromised?

There were cars before ignition keys, there were houses before locks, and there were banks before PINs. So I think he was just saying, in his own little way, that you are completely wrong on every count, and you missed his point besides: His point is that just because something hasn't happened YET, does not mean it will not happen in the FUTURE.

That is not the way Steam Guard works - you should need to enter your code only once. Which browser are you using? Do you have cookies disabled, or set to be deleted at the end of your session? If so you should whitelist steamcommunity.com.

The code lets you login to steam. from there you can log in to steamtrades or steamgifts by just clicking the link to "login" via steam

You can disable it, but it is aditional security and will always get in the way. Still you should only do it once per PC, unless you are deleting the cookies.

You know, I don't know why so much insulting goes on in these threads (well, maybe I do...), but I don't see why someone has to be stupid if they don't agree with someone else (not talking about anyone in particular). If you like steam guard, great; if you don't like it, great. Shouldn't people have a choice in the matter? Telling people that they can turn it off and lose features isn't much of a choice. Personally, I don't like being forced to be "safe" or whatever - it's very Orwellian. Throw out your computers and you'll have even more protection than steam guard gives. Hey, more protection's always better, right?

Passwords are also crap. I hate them. We should just get rid of them. (You trust me not to sign in as you, right?)

Not really since you only need to do that once per machine (cellphone if you want)

I bet this guy would be the first one to cry and blame valve if someone steal his account.

I actually like Steam Guard. Imagine if your account was stolen, even changing payment method blocks market for a few days. Great feature.
