Block all discord links and fake steam links
1: Discord links can have a fake verify system that steals info, and discord supports piracy and theft.
2: Fake steam links are obvious, but people are being smarter and hiding them. so i'd say ban them.

yeah, but most people on steam cant be bothered to read those, and probably wont come across them before finding a link.

you're forgetting there are some kids on steam. what will they do? they'll get hacked because those links arent being filtered.

Guess what? Valve doesn' readt this.....and if users can't bothered to read FAQS, whose fault is that?

And the forum already scans stuff.

Ever notice?

The only group you are in is your own group with 11 members.

Hijacker's bot rarely spam the same message over and over because it may trigger a warning, and there is no point too if the victim has no interest in clicking, anyway.

so 11 members, not counting you would be 10. Sent 50 phishing links in just a course of 24 hours? idk but your story doesn't really add up here.

Yeah, this happens in a good number of game hub group chat rooms. And as far as I have seen, there is no way to report the account spamming the "This is for you! Free $50 gift card!" links in those group chats. If a moderator isn't sitting there 24/7 to ban those accounts and delete the link posts, they can sit there for a long time for fools to click on.

See those three little dots in the upper right of profiles?
The very last option in the pull down says "Report Player"

It's on every single Steam account.

Hopefully their parents/guardians educate them on internet safety prior to allowing their child to have an account, at least that's what I did for mine and have seemed to avoid hijacking quite well.

Meaning there is no way to report it from the chat itself. There is no report option *unless* you go to the profile, and most people aren't going to bother with that. Because "OMG, that's 2 or 3 mouse clicks..."
https://prnt.sc/izBf9CdvIclF
https://prnt.sc/Ip3V0qybQ97v

If there was a "Report Player" or "Report Comment" option in group chats, people might actually use it, because it is *right there* where they are and doesn't require them clicking out of the chat.

There's no so yeah to it. The moderators don't sit there and watch chat. You and the op are creating a problem where there is none. Report the suspect profile and move on. Those three little dots on the profile? That report flag reports the account.


If you can't even be asked to go to the profile, then it really isn't much of a issue is it?

Sounds like you two are the one going "omg, That's two or three mouse clicks"

That's why that flag on the profile exists.

Better yet, if you're in a group that is sending out malicious links, it sounds like you shouldn't be a part of that group.

How is being in a game's chat room the same as being in a small Steam Group?

So tell me- why would having a "Report" function in group chats- any group chats, be a problem for you? I can't control who comes into a game's group chat when I am there, so how is me being in a game's chat looking for other people to chat with about the game an issue for you? All games bad, no go into game chat rooms! Game chat rooms bad!

If you can't even be asked to go to the profile, then it really isn't much of a issue is it?

Sounds like you two are the one going "omg, That's two or three mouse clicks"
Show me where I said I wouldn't go to someone's profile? I'll wait.
Show me where I said I 2 or 3 clicks is an issue for me? I'll wait.

Let me clarify, since it seems to be difficult for you to understand what I am saying- Valve adding a "report" function to chat rooms,-no matter if they are a Steam Group chat room or a game hub chat room- so people can report the posts directly from the chat makes more sense than Valve trying to filter or block every altered steamcommunity link and every discord link- before many of them have even been created by scammers and phishing spambots. Less effort for the user means more users *might* actually use the function, because yes- many gamers are lazy like that. There are always a bunch of threads in the Ideas & Suggestions subforum here asking for things to be made quicker and use less mouse clicks. You've been here long enough to have seen them and probably commented on them in the same argumentative manner as you are doing here in response to my comments.

Hope that helps clarify what I am suggesting- Add a "Report" function to all chat rooms, instead of trying to block and filter every single link that could possibly ever be made and used.

It's easier said than done.
As someone who used to try keep updated the link filters here, there's an staggering number of new urls being used daily. It's really hard to stay up to date because by the time you add an url to the filters, five new ones have popped out.

And blocking whole services like Discord first does more damage than good. There's always more people making a legit use out of it then there's people busing it. Also it gives the impression Steam is 'censoring' the site, which isn't good PR.
