Enjoy getting called a cheat due to your 10 digit steamid.

(when cheats are caught they just register a new free account and buy games for $9.95 on steam, therefore most people cheating have high steamid's. So if you are actually half decent at anything you'll be accused lots)

Steam is a free gaming distribution platform by Valve. You buy games, download them, and play them through the client software. It also has some good community features, like friends lists, groups, and such. It shows you when you friends are currently playing a game, and you can easily join their server by licking on them and joining.

Pretty much all PC games that come out are sold through Steam now too, and mostly at a lower cost than at retail.

Also, it's f***ing awesome.
