Yes, I also think people could misuse a regular chat by sending links to virus downloads and other shit.

I think it's people's own responsibility to decide who they choose to associate with and deal with the possibility of having to deal with such situations.

Create Steam shortcut, right click go to properties, add
-nochatui -nofriendsui
after target.

You will have to launch Steam with that shortcut for it to work. If you have it on auto-start, it'll show the updated version again.

I'm using the new chat since a while because of Steam beta, i don't know if now it's updated for everyone, but before that we had only to unsubscribe to beta and voila.

But seriously. While i like improvements - isn't it too much? This "gaming platform" looks more and more like some social site.

It always was a social site. It's called steamcommunity for a reason.

Maybe you are right. I just always thought that I have better ways to communicate with others than using steam. And treated "steamcommunity" only as something useful when I wanted to play multiplayer. Maybe valve has bigger plans than that.

Nudes over internet are a complete misuse of sexuality. I don't get those who prefer to lose their times with virtual things than real ones. Said by someone who is not me.

I think that everywhere people can share their data, people can also commit illegal stuffs of many sources. Valve should be aware of that.

Please people, don't send nudes for your gaming friends.

I never saw someone doing such thing elsewhere and should be very unpleasant to see such thing, imagine for a kid. Nintendo should offer an option to hide avatars completely to protect kids from those pervs.

When the one that send me nudes question me before that it is ok for me when the nudes show a woman that pleasure my eyes^^

When i get nudes that i don't want i can report the sender, i can block the sender or ignor the sendings. Or a combination of them
So i don't think that many will abuse it at the contact with ME :o)

But the damage would be already done as you have seen the picture already

With regard to nudes, it's just a naked body or body part. It's not a malicious computer virus, or a stab wound, or a gunshot wound, or a broken bone, or other serious injury. There's unlikely to be any lasting damage beyond the initial reaction of, "Eww, gross!"

I mean, I've seen some nasty images on the internet that have haunted me for years, but those had nothing to do with nudity, and those could have been just as easily sent to people with a text of "Hey, check out this cool picture: http://bit.ly/WhatAreYouDoingDontClickMeYouFool"

I know but usually they say girls got effected badly by such things.

Not because of a single image, but more because it's a constant pattern of behaviour.

You get one dick pick, you brush it off as an asshole and move on. You get a dozen dick picks, you start questioning your view of society, and whether you even want anyone online to know that you're female.

If you add anyone that sends you a request, then what can you expect?
Eventually you're going to get a numbnuts or two, and probably a picture of his numb nuts (or two).

If you're more selective about your friends, I'd say it probably won't happen.

Anything other than nudes though?

I've never gotten the issue with nudes. I get when women don't want them and I think the people who just send unsolicited nudes, but it's not like it's some awful thing that you'll have negative consequences for seeing. Just unfriend them, call them a moron and move on with your life.

But of course, you can also write awful stuff, so as usually, with any form of communication, there's bound to be opportunities for abuse.

Something like that has been around for so long (not on steam but other places) like skype. Dangerous world but unfortunately you can't tell what's what until they ask the dumb question, you gotta pic? lol. But you would think people sending nudes via a game chat or some form of it would freak out cause what if the screen shot it and make fun of that person? XD
