About

December 17, 2008  – a date which will live in infamy.

This group started out to show people were against the very unbalanced prices that came with the currency change on Steam. Right now this group will focus on exposing all the flaws around the Steam platform in the hope it would eventually lead to improvement. The group will keep the original name to show how this all started, only our goals have expanded.
