It's been, like, 8 months now. No response from anyone at Valve, that's it. My games are gone. I've emailed Gabe several times, why would Valve do this to me? After what a big fan I've been, all the good things I've said, all their games I've purchased... why would they just keep them and ignore me?

Feels terrible, man.

Have you emailed the Front Desk?

Hope you get them back.

I know that feel bro. I waited several months before FrontDesk@Valvesoftware.com emailed me and said "Well, I just sent your posters."

My guess would be to email Robin Walker.

I've tried that in the past with no luck.

Try again. I'd imagine he gets a number of emails so he might have missed yours.

Didn't know he got hired by Valve.

Edited:

...wasn't he VAC banned?

I don't get it did you get disabled or something?

**Spacewolf** · 17th January 2012

Alright, steam support has forsaken me

I'm just hoping Robin will respond.

Try the contact form on valvesoftware.com and select "front desk"

**Spacewolf** · 17th January 2012

On the contact valve page, there's a "tf team" option. Think that would be worth a try?

Go for it.

**Spacewolf** · 17th January 2012

I shall try. I guess it doesn't hurt to ask as many people as I can, although I don't want to come off as annoying to'em.

Okay, emails to gaben and "TF Team" are away, but I can't seem to find drunken_f00l's email.

Edited:

Wait a minute, I was looking for the wrong name, I've got it.

**PowerBall v1** · 22nd January 2012

Does anyone have an idea about what the best way to get an L4D poster signed would be? I live in Sweden, and it seems like buying a poster, sending it to Valve and having them send it back would be quite a hassle.

Frontdesk@valvesoftware.com You could send a returnable envelope or they'll probably send it back.

**Spacewolf** · 23rd January 2012

C'mon fellas, if you just read my email, I make a good case. The waiting to see if they'll even respond is killing me.

SBlue · 25th January 2012

Anyone know of a general "Portal 2 Team" e-mail address like the TF one?
If not, is Joshua Weier the 'head' of the team?

**Raijin** · 26th January 2012

Email Realm Lovejoy.

Waah why won't they respond to me :(

How long ago did you email them?

**YWNJack** · 30th January 2012

Few days ago. 6 hour response. Maybe its cause I have never emailed them before

I feel the same way when I mailed my Black Ops Hardened Edition metal book to Treyarch IN AUGUST.

why

cause i like autographs (if you're asking why I bothered to buy that, then I won't get into that). I have even sent my Resistance 3 Playstation magazine and two of my R&C games' covers to Insomniac and got it back in just one to two months.

I like those compared to my autographed Portal 2 cover, which Gabe Newell only signed. Of course, that was my first time sending a game company something to sign, so I didn't put in the details/requests like what I had done the second/third time when I sent Insomniac and Treyarch (I asked Treyarch for Black Ops dlcs, lololololol) stuff to sign.

**Deremix** · 3rd February 2012

Oh boy, just got something else in from Valve. Saxton Hale's Thrilling Tales postcard signed by Gabe. THIS BITCH GONNA BE FRAMED.

Just want to let you know that Gabe himself said he hate the "Cake is a lie" joke more than pretty much anything.
I wish I didn't lose my sources on that.

I think everyone at Valve, especially Eric Wolpaw, hates that joke.

Asked for stickers but can't complain at a Saxton Hale front cover! Valve <3

It does look like it indeed

**dookster** · 7th February 2012

Not so much I emailed someone from Valve but I did meet them today at Animex. I got to speak to Karen Prell and Jeep Barnett about the industry and their past work and they even signed my copy of the Sacrifice.

I'm pretty chuffed with it!

I did feel that a lot of the other awesome speakers were a bit overshadowed by Valve though

The Rifleman · 10th February 2012

Is Gabe's email still gaben@valvesoftware.com?

**Raijin** · 10th February 2012

He wouldn't change it. It's too iconic.
