I Was Trying To Be Nice

<div class="IPBDescription">but then it all went bad</div> Hello everyone it is me again. Last time I was here I asked for help because I had a poor internet connection and could not play Half-Life games on the internet. You all were very helpful, and I really appriciated it. *huggles and kisses* <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> But now, the next page in my life/coloring-book has turned, and another problem has entered the battle arena.

I am now in college and we have T1 connections. This gives me the idea that "Hey, I can now play video games!", but at the time I was busy socializing and talking to various people in my dorm. I met this one dude named Steven. And he seemed like an okay guy.

And then I started talking to him. It turns out he sort of sucks. After our conversation I realised two things. #1 I want some cream soda, and #2 He knew JACK <span style='color:red'>****</span> about ANYTHING computer related, but <b>totally pretended like he did</b>. He said the phrase <i>"Half-Life2 Prefered Graphics!"</i> SEVEN times in ONE <span style='color:red'>****</span>ing conversation. Now, I don't know too much about computers, but I can smack one together no problem. But this guy... <span style='color:red'>****</span> He acted like such an expect because he could point at a sticker on his videocard box and say, <i>"Look I can read stickers! This graphics card is Half-Life2 Prefered Graphics!"</i> Anyway, I guess I forgot about all that because I was meserized by his powerful and really sexy alienware-ish computer.

His orgasm-inducing computer made up for his slightly retarded personality. So later that day I said to myself, "Hey, since everyone on this damn floor only plays HALO, I will introduce the wonder that is Half-Life". So then I gave him a free legit CD-key and installed Steam for him. I was just being a nice guy! But you know what Green Day says about 'Nice Guys'; <i>"We really suck at singing, somebody please kill us"</i>. I knew this would come back and bite me.

<span style='color:red'>*NUKED IMAGE.*</span>

And bite me, it did! Fast foward to today. Now I have my internet hooked up and I downloaded steam. But alas! For some reason, 0 out of the 3 CD's I have do not work <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->. Now I am on a <b>Mighty Quest</b> to GET MY LEGIT CD-KEY BACK! But I do not know how to get it back. :-(

A few things. Since Steven is sort of an idiot, he made his password his LAST NAME. So I now know his steamID and his password, and want to retrieve the game. Also, he doesn't even play Half-Life anymore... he's addicted to playing HALO on the PC (see? He's a complete tard-stick).

Anyhow, I am asking for your people's help. Since you all play Half-Life mods and may or may not be knowledgable in half-life CD-key trickery, I felt this was the best place to ask. I am totally bummed out right now I just want to cry. :-(

This is me being a cat if I was reincarnated as a cat instead of a sad boy with no video games :-(.


Please help me out, guys.

Love,
~Fox in the Box.

    Sir! Sir! Are you listening to me, sir? You gotta be smart. You don't get compensated for being stupid. Oh, yes you were. You met this guy, who you didn't even like, and you gave him something of yours. You shouldn't have expected to get anything back! It's gonna cost you. Buy yourself a new Half-Life CD. It's not even like it's expensive now.

    Case dismissed.

    This would be a 'precisely'. Since you handed him your key, it is now technically his. It cannot be freed without sending the original front cover (or whichever portion contains the actual hardcopy of the CD-key that you got with the game when you bought it.. no copies accepted, the actual thing) to Valve. If you're bant, this won't work, and you've wasted time.

    Short version, shell out ten bucks for a copy of HL. It's cheaper and faster than dealing with Valve, and ten bucks after seven years for a game you STILL play is a pretty good deal. Also, find your above post edited to remove the swearfilter evasion and images containing swear-banned words removed.
