As the title says. Was this only taken out today ?

Can you please bring it back. Thanks.

Couldnt be an update, no client updates recently, only in September. So this must have been done with no update involved or rolled out letting people know. A little rude dont you think ?
I find it valuable as an option as do many other people on Steam, I'd like to see it back.

Not sure what you mean. I can see my friends, friendlist. Just by going to his profile.

Basically if someone is a friend of a friend they can see your profile, if they are not they cant see anything. I like it that way. The way I interact on steam making friends is by the Friends of Friends profile view as I dont like anyone adding me who isnt a Friend of a Friend. You obviously never knew this option existed in privacy. But its gone now and I want to know why.

It was quite similar to how fakebook works, and now it seems its going more fakebook.

I'm also curious where this option has disappeared to. Is it gone forever? Bit of a shame if it is.

"Users only" and "friends of friends" options have been removed.

Aw, well thanks for letting us know. Has any reason been given for this?

I had my profile set to "Friends of Friends" for the same reason. ^

I would also like this option to come back.

Indeed. A man cant be wrong for pointing out the obvious here. This wasnt in any updates. I dont agree with this as everyone should have been informed. This isnt in any updated policies either. So ...

I want the option back, too. I have used it and found it to be the best option for my privacy settings.

how bout i do anyway Oct 10, 2014 @ 6:07pm 
If you want to suggest that a feature be brought back, make a post in Suggestions, not Help and Tips.

Asking for help here isnt a problem, Help! why is this feature gone ? ... Nothing wrong with that.
This isnt about suggesting something that was already there and taken away without informing the community, nor provided in any updates.
