Steam is a very reliable piece of software in which is used for the selling and purchasing video games, modding software, and video making software. With all purchases being secure and safe you will not have to worry whether or not you were given a virus, unlike my other reviews I will just begin listing the problems and whats good with the occasional bits of informations regarding them

POSITIVE
-Secure with no chances of viruses from downloaded software
-Steam community is amazing with millions of players playing together, it is truly amazing
-Your account and PayPal information kept secure and away from 3rd party companies
-Too many games to count which will satisfy your craving for epicness
-Contains many popular titles from games like Mass Effect, Garry's Mod, the Call Of Duty franchise, and many more
-A great area for beginning Indie Devs with the greenlighting system

NEGATIVES
-A massive amount of virus bots which will send you image links with the message "Hi my friend want trade with you but he cant add you, are you interested in this item?"
-Community is quite interesting when it comes to addons, a massive amount are pornographic until the new rules for our beautiful workshop came out making it near impossible for anybody to get any pornographic material in games
-TF2 players are constantly going nuts for gear and will gang rape your inventory unless sprayed in the face with a bottle of denial
-Trading cards are sold for ridiculous prices

5/6/15

The site has over-priced premium currency (gold), over-priced premium, an overly protective censor in which doesn't tell you if your words have been censored, even basic words like "devour" or "suck" or "House" and even any numbers. With the community strangely flirty and obsessed with topics young adults should only know about including being "dom" or dominated, which refers to a sexual act, a "Whun" or a Girlfriend/Boyfriend, subjects like sex or making out, if you have premium everyone immediately flocks over to try and make you their whun, generally they are new players. To make this worse, there is a massive market for swimsuits which feature bikinis whilst the male swimsuit shop has 3 pairs of swim-trunks. Remember that this site is supposed to be kid friendly, so having literally around 40 types of bikinis is a bit strange to say the least. Also the site frequently re-uses events with no creativity what-so-ever in the whole act of it. The site makes this worse with daily rewards for players whom bought premium which include gems, free item tickets, money, ect. Which makes the whole game favored towards pay-to-play players. Another sneaky practice from Fantage is how their premium works, in tiny words it states that it will AUTOMATICALLY re buy premium when it runs out without your knowledge, but as it it is stated even if its in tiny font they can technically legally do it. The premium is cheaper in the long run if you buy the 12 month premium, but to those who only wanted 3 months they will be infinitely given the fees for refreshing the premium regardless of what you wanted. To my knowledge there is NO way to prevent this unless you just do not buy the premium. Also money is difficult to obtain making it nearly impossible to buy thing normally, and to top it off there is a leveling system which rewards player who earn "Badges" and level up, the only problem with this is that I can seriously BUY many many levels with small level restrictions before I can do so. And also GUESS WHAT, the levels require REAL LIFE MONEY to purchase

POSITIVE FEATURES
-Large Verity of items
-Lively community with player constantly online
-Games require little or no intelligence to play
-Players aren't afraid to pretend to be females to obtain item from horny children in which as them to be their whuns
-If you desire a "Whun" you can easily find one as Female characters (not saying actual girls just people who have a female avatar) are so common it makes you think that people are really desperate to see cartoon females
-Finally, the vast majority of items are obtainable with free-to-play money

PROBLEMS
-Too many players whom flirt with the first premium female they see
-People discriminate newer and poor players(although not so much now as before)
-Gold and Premium are expensive as heck
-Buying Levels is too overpowered
-while all gear sold in normal stores is obtainable by regular currency 90% of the total gear is only obtainable by being premium
-With such irritating censoring communication is nearly impossible, which is made worse by the game not telling you what has been censored or not
-Prays on children in which use parent's credit card

Tip for consumers:
Parents, keep that credit card away from that child of yours or you'll lose your life savings

Although I very quickly got to a point in which i had billions of gaia gold to spend i hit the point where I couldn't go any further in getting good things without paying irl money for gaia cash. Now as of this review for an empty bottle you can pay over 100 million for it as 2 weeks ago it was around 90 grand. With the constant inflation because the admins do not regulate the shops it seems to be making the game nearly impossible for new players who want to get some good stuff. People are less often donating items in the dumpster diving area and wealth is nearly impossible to get now. The social aspect is segregated, one main section are the pay-to-play players and their good gear which none of em even put any effort into getting, the other is the majority who are discriminated against or in other words the free-to-play players. My first 4 weeks on gaia have been very irritating, the first 2 being before i had millions of gaia gold, I was called names and no one spoke to me. On the other hand when I went over and got millions, and now billions of gold i could buy and get better items, using only the default shops, and dumpster dive I got some amazing gear. This was the point people would begin approaching me and actually having good chats with me, and yet I watched as the newer and poor players flocked around trying to talk to people and being ignored. I eventually got into the bidding aspect, with 32 million gold at the time it was nearly Impossible to win any bidding wars with players topping my 2 million bid with 245 billion gold bids (not even kidding this happened twice to me) getting great items became impossible. After getting over 4.9 billion from a sold item I suddenly was greeted with another aspect of the market... Pay-To-Play gods, they had billions at a time even topping your bet by 1 every time you placed a bet, making it irritating to even try. The 2nd worst thing in this game is how when you place a bid it suddenly displays it to the whole marketplace meaning your stealthy bid is now gonna be topped for hours on end until someone runs out of money (99% its you) and the other person gets the item. With me and my sister both helping each other we both managed to beat 1 player in a bidding battle, Railath is an example of a Pay-to-Play god, he will top your bids for hours on end. After a 2 1/2 hour bidding war we managed to beat him (I am not kidding). The worst part is, the items generally look like crap bur because they are worth a ton players are willing to take part in a mosh pit of horrible practices. The game is constantly giving you 20%-50% off coupons which encourage you to buy $50 or $100 packs of gaia cash by saying "HERE ARE SOME COOL ITEMS WHICH YOU WILL NEVER SEE AGAIN" The vast majority require you to pay over $20 for a single item, which they don't tell you this but the item you just bought for IRL money will only give you 1 piece of the outfit you saw unless you buy more of them. Over all the site is greedy, predejuced, and takes part is some dirty practices.

Tip for consumers:
If you really truly want to have fun, either PAY TO PLAY or you will not ever get anywhere, I am lucky to have a sister whom works with me to secure profits, without someone who is there is support you constantly with good stuff and to share gold with, you will NOT progress quickly. So PAY ALL DAY, or LEAVE

Steam is a gaming platform that has my full endorsement. I'd be perfectly fine if it monopolized...
