See, even when Valve is ratted out as screwing their customers over, there are guys like you giving them "mad props" and even claiming their behaviour "should be an example to others". No. This is ridiculous. Do you also give "mad props" to murderers who enter "guilty" pleas at trial and praise them as shining…

I refuse to applaud a corporation for its Brave Admission that it's been fucking its customers sideways and refusing to do things that all of its competitors have done better at for over a decade now, and its pledge that they'll totally try harder now, guys, seriously. They don't get shit until they've turned words…

Actually, the "adult" thing to do would be to admit fault and take steps to improve things.

If shirking blame is what kids would do, Valve just took the teenager way of doing things and said 'yeah okay whatever".
