i dont hate steam.. but many people have had problems with its loading time, excessive updating, among other things.. i still use steam every day ^^

Why is everyone so pissed of with Steam. I think it started off on the wrong foot too early, but i think its a great idea ...

Nova, You can do better than that, that's one sad looking poem!
Let's see if I can fix it up for ya ....

Why is everyone so pissed off with Steam?
I think it's actually a great scheme
It just got started off on the wrong foot
I say give it more time, it's going to stay put
But what do we do if it really sucks as bad as they say?
Worry not, give it another try by the next day
You see Steam will update itself to make it all right
If not, be patient and try it again after midnight

(not a poem)

theoretically, steam is a great idea. implementing it didn't go quite as good though. they are making up lost ground with weekly updates and such. as a matter of fact, i don't hate it, except when their content servers are congested.

OK, this one is a terrible poem too, let's see what I can do ...

or when an update is released untested

OMG

Steam has already failed, and it failed all the way
cheaters already get through the gate anyway
why deliver updates if they're not efficient
but to harass players with useless content ?

I wish someone would stop all this naughty nightmare
I want to turn back time and get the old software
working again ; and happen, with a 56k,
to reach gaming servers, and actually PLAY!

*edit* BTW, note these rhymes are pure alexandrine's!

TECHNICAL SUPPORT POEM

Why do I get a message saying
"Invalid STEAM UserID Ticket" you can't be play'n?
Whenever I connect to my LAN server
it leaves me and my buddies hanging in a fervor!

I'm afraid this error most commonly caused
by a combination of factors
leaving your game permanently paused.

Providing support for such a setup we had no plan,
connecting to a game server on your LAN.

We promise a fix, so hang in there steady,
we will work on it as soon as we're good and ready!

I'm afraid this is all the help I can find,
and we're sorry for leaving you in such a bind.

haha, you don't respect the rhythmics, your rhymes must have the same number of syllables
Steam has already failed, and it failed all the way
1------2---3-4--5-- 6--/--7--8--9---10-11--12
cheaters already get through the gate anyway
1----2---3-4--5--6-/--7------8---9--10-11-12

na na na naaaaah!

/me walks in circles, scratching head, mumbles 'inspiration, inspiration, I need inspiration'

LOL now sing that to the tune of Jingle Bells.

Steam Is Hell

Dashing on to play

On a 56k modem

Through the Steam we go

Waiting it seems all day;

Watching progress bar unmoving

making fists clench tight

Looks like high ping

and a crappy game tonight

Steam is Hell

steam is hell

waiting all the way!

O what fun it is to wait

on a 56K modem delay
