So, every once in a while Steam does something that I find particularly amusing, like screwing up something basic. Depressing statistics about Greenlight aside, I figured I'd share a picture of Steam failing to do basic things over the years! Feel free to contribute if you find something interesting or funny that Steam did! I know there are many more, like people downloading terabytes in seconds and stuff, so yeah.

Have you spotted an interesting Steam screwup?

Yeah, let me tell you about it.
Yes, but I'm not telling.
No.
I'm a contrarian and want another answer that is completely irrelevant to both the discussion and the poll!

I haven't really noticed ,any interesting steam errors, just the servers being awful and chat screwing up. We all get kicked from the 2hu chat randomly, every once in a while. Recently I had a thing where the client refused to show admin/ officers stars for the group, and before that I couldn't download games, both client errors fixed with a restart. The only interesting errors I've experienced were formatting ones, with both their email, and at one point their website.

My most impressive download speed was 4.5 billion gigs per second. I even have a picture.

Almost every single email I get from Steam just calls me "Dear,"

I can't tell if it's creepy or endearing.
