Why is it needed to make your forum account linked with your steam ID?
When you connect to one of the servers it asks you to login via your forum information. If your username/password doesn't connect with the Steam account you're using to login to the server, it will tell you the username/password is incorrect. At least that's what I am guessing, because if I choose "Create a new account", it will tell me my username is already in use.
And yes, Somone, it still needs to be changed, thanks. But Crap-Head said he would get it tomorrow.
