Reason for Steam being unstable: "Steam, Blizzard and EA hit by DDoS attacks"

Kids these days...

There's no DDoS attacks on Steam. Just everyone wants to sell or buy the holiday sale cards in the last minutes before it disappears...

I heard Origin was shut down by this

Wasn't Steam also under a hack-attack? Sleepy told me so. He's a viable source. Russian, but viable.

bunch of spineless script kiddies getting shits n giggles annoying gamers.

Nope

Both the Steam Store and the Steam Community are working just fine for me...

Article talking about 'hackers'. DDoS has nothing to do with hacking, unless you call a kid that has a gun a soldier...

I'm starting to wonder what is wrong with this site too. I got a few new games yesterday and tried to sync my account. I had one somewhat successful sync about six hours ago which updated my games list but lost my Groups and Wishlist so now I can't join any Group giveaways because the system thinks I'm not in any Groups and SG+ is useless as my Wishlist games are still showing games that aren't on my Wishlist anymore and not any new items that I added (I think SG is using my prior list though it shows no Groups or Wishlist entries). Now when I try to sync it says that I need to make my profile Public (which it is) and it won't update at all. I went to IsThereAnyDeal today to update my account there (they use the same method to get your User info as this site does) and it updated within seconds after I made the request and got all of my info correct. I have been able to do this several times this morning on their site (tested by changing items on my Wishlist) with no issues so I don't think it's all on Steam's end now. I have tried several times here in the last few hours with nothing resulting. Very frustrating to say the least.

Bunch of haters.
