Hello community.

Due to recent events, we have enabled new security measures in order to protect our services against malicious bots/fake users.


Posting permissions:

From now on, you can only post messages if your steam account has been actively linked to your forums account.
Users who haven't linked their accounts yet can no longer reply or post a message.

Steam-Linking:

Our steam-linking feature has been improved to detect and block double-linking.

In the past, some users abused that feature so that they could link their steam account to multiple forum accounts.
This is no longer possible and we have removed any active linking for those accounts.
Users that are affected have to re-link their accounts.

Disposable Emails:

You can no longer use disposable email services when creating a new account.
Starting today, we are actively banning disposable email services in order to avoid spam and fake accounts.




How To:

Click the Steam Auth Banner

Also, linking your accounts will add some other useful benefits. Read more:

Update:

- People that haven't linked their accounts yet, will receive a sticky message (red alert).
- Simply visit a profile to see whether a user has been verified or not.


Also updated the original post to reflect these things.
