They’re even getting their reviews boosted.

And player numbers are being manipulated, too. You know exactly what I’d like to say to you. You guys definitely deserve a slap in the face, money-hungry apes.

And? This is the Steam Community discussion section for a game developed and published by Valve, and the issue directly concerns CS2. I posted it here for the community, not because I expect Valve employees to reply. The point is to show CS2 players what is happening, document it publicly, and call out the people who support, excuse, or ignore this kind of manipulation. I never claimed that Valve employees were participating in this thread.

Seems like you were trying to talk directly to them.

One sentence was aimed at Valve, while the thread itself was posted for the CS2 community. That is not difficult to understand. If you have something relevant to say about the manipulation, say it. Otherwise, stop derailing the discussion with pointless nitpicking and move on.

I agree, I wasnt suggesting otherwise. If its derailing dont blame me as i didnt bring it up, I was only asking about it.

Valve is actually a very small company for the amount of money they make. That turd Gabe refuses to invest back into the players.

Believe me, everyone involved gets their share of the pie. It is all about money, just like almost everywhere else.

They do not give a damn about the players in this case. Otherwise, this problem would not have continued indefinitely and would have been fixed years ago. As long as the market keeps running and generating money, nothing will change. Sad, but that is simply the reality.

Exactly. Business is business. Nobody does anything for free.

They would be a trillionaire at the very least richer than Elon. Gabe is like the ghetto version of Elon. The Slumlord, if you will🫣

Sorry Gabe just sad facts that's you're able to change, but just won't for some unknown reason.

You could have been in the top 1% bro. Fail😭 Love ya but I'm a business guy. A successful one. If I had what have or had' what you have- I'd be a quadrillionaire by now. Maybe even a zillionaire. Either way. Gabe. Buddy. You're doing it wrong. Love ya♥️

PS - stopping cheaters in their tracks like roach motels caught roaches. That's the future of gaming.

100% stopping cheaters is the future of gaming.

Love ya Gabe! You got this!

And please explain? How is Valve a small company? How is small making more than most that play here combined being small again? Making multiple hundred millions per year is not large? Please explain how a multi hundreds of millions business is small please? We would love to hear it?

Valve has only 336 employees, this makes it a small company. How much money a company makes doesnt determine its size, this should be common knowledge.
