Beware of trading scammers!

A subreddit for anything related to games (but not sports). "Related" means that posts must contain gaming-related content in the link/post body, not just a "forced" connection via the title or a caption added to the content.

"Generic" image macros/memes (where the character itself is not related to gaming) like Scumbag Steve, Good Guy Greg, etc. will be removed. Something that "reminds you of a game", or "looks like something from a game" is also not an appropriate submission.

You can create a meme and post it on reddit, but you can't go to Steam's website?

I live in Holland, I can't buy games from here. (Aruba)

[–]emphaticleech 0 points1 point ago

Why not?

[–]Stealyourdonkey[S] 0 points1 point ago

Well since I'm a student, I use a service called iDeal to buy stuff online. I'm trying to find it, I can't :c. Plus all prices are now in dollars, am used to paying in euros....It's all very confusing for me :c

[–]emphaticleech 0 points1 point ago

What? That shouldn't matter. Whatever region your steam account is locked to is what you pay, which.. if you have a steam account you created from Holland and have bought with euros.. it will still be in euros no matter where you are. Go to Steam's website log in with your account, pay with euros.

[–]Stealyourdonkey[S] 0 points1 point ago

Well, I am already logged in, it's still in dollars and no iDeal. I can provide screens if needed. My account was originally made in Aruba few years back. Seriously, This isn't working for me man :c.

[–]emphaticleech 0 points1 point ago

Make a new account or a new paypal account in a different region? Why would you make the account in Aruba if you live in Holland? And how have you been buying with Euros if it shows up as dollars in Aruba?

[–]Stealyourdonkey[S] 0 points1 point ago

Well, I lived in Aruba all my life and never bought a game online, because I couldn't, I did buy a hard copy of HL2 so that was the only reason why I had an account. Moved to Holland last year to study and, since I got my first evar bank card! I bought games, it was easy....Untill now, it's just not working. Maybe paypal. I'll try that.

[–]emphaticleech 0 points1 point ago

Yeah. It makes no sense. If you were able to purchase with euros on your account before now, you should be able to now regardless of where you're standing.

[–]Stealyourdonkey[S] 0 points1 point ago

Well http://imgur.com/a/1GWN3 baaaaaaaaaaaaah, I'm going to the beach :c. Oh, I put it in dutch, in case it might help, didn't.

[–]Chickenfoot117 2 points3 points ago

What? Go to steam's website and buy them there, then download them when you get home.

[–]BMGabe 1 point2 points ago

If you can post on reddit from your phone, you can buy a game from steam with it also.

[–]guthbert 0 points1 point ago

Post all the information for your bank info and account name on this link, and one of us can do it for you..... :D

I was on vacation for 4 days - I probably missed many nice sales - But these 4 days were fucking amazing and probably the best time of my life.

Wow, that sounds dumber than I thought.

[–]Daakuryu 1 point2 points ago

Not dumb, being away from the humdrum of regular life always feels like the best time ever;

few years ago I took a month off work and spent it in Thailand, had an amazing time, took some great pictures, explored, and lost 15lbs.

so yeah, vacation > steam sales

[–]Bobgle 0 points1 point ago

I wasn't even 200 km away from home - I just met some friends, who live pretty far away.

[–]Daakuryu 1 point2 points ago

It's still being away from your regular life for a period of time no?

just savor the moments you can.
