Frankly, I can't remember who is using http://steamcommunity.com/id/norondor/ right now, but I got a message from them and a link to check the not-Steam forums. Norondor, check your passwords.

Cannon's too.

I was not paying attention and actually input my info, due to going full retard, then I hurriedly changed my password, so I should be fine, but god damn do I feel like an idiot. Anyway, yeah, pay attention to the URL of any links you get from steam friends for awhile

Mr.Undead (Mr. Saturn) too.

yeah, I clicked his link too, because I was distracted and not thinking. when you see a link from a friend you automatically trust it without thinking, because it's a friend. which is of course why they phish using friends lists.

anyway, you're not alone in feeling dumb.

I knew Saturn's message was a fake when it wasn't in all caps.

I cue in my friends that my messages are authentic by claiming to be a foreign prince!

Sorry to hear about getting hacked.

i, too, put in my info, and i too changed my password immediately

it's a safe setup because they e-mail you a secret password-changing code so the guy who jacks your setup shouldn't be able to change your password

unless you use the same password for everything

in which case, i mean

ugh

I have my own profile/copy of TF2 now, so that's all Norondor, but I'll tell him all the same

Saturn's was funny because it was Catloaf that caused it, about five minutes after he decided to be a dick to everyone on tf2 on Saturn's account.

This is why I don't know my passwords!
So I can't accidentally be an idiot and ruin everything.

Just forget your passwords and you will be fine.

I am so sorry! i wasn't thinking very hard about things because i was on my way out the door when some guy i hadn't talked to in a little while etc. etc. i'm bad.

The guy who jacked my account also got my brother and his friends too so i am seriously the derp of the hour around here and Mocto has not been pulling his punches wrt telling me i am stupid (because i am stupid).

Not sure if it makes me any less of a dick, but I didn't intend to take any more presents until everyone else on the server had gotten at least one more even before you all started yelling at me for cutting in line.

But yeah, I feel like a fucking idiot.
I blame my current fit of far-worse-than-usual depression making me absent-minded/unaware of most things that aren't contributing to me suffering. Or maybe I did notice it on some level but was possessed to fuel bad situations. I was considering posting in 'shit days' but it's not like anything really happened. Rather I'm just far more aware of my utter lack of real life friends/feeling of helplessness concerning how the hell to make new friends than usual.
