Steam Offline

[StealthGus]

For some of you who don't know, Steam has been taken offline minutes ago for over 2 Million Users. This is because of a group named Lizard Squad, who have been notorious for hacking in the past. They have now targeted valve, and have taken down Steams Servers (steamstat.us). Those of you who are having issues (like myself) this is the reason.

Not down on my end, but definitely noticed slowdown when using the Steam Overlay thing to look at my achievements and see what needed to be done.

Mine will just randomly go offline, then i just click "Sign In" and it's fine. Happened about 10 times last night. Not my internet because TS and Google Chrome were fine.

Same, I would try to chat with someone, and after I sent the message it immediately went offline.

My Steam has been acting funny lately. Maybe this has something to do with it.

Yeah, has your steam not been able to load pages?

Steam seems to be getting DDoSed again, steamstat.us many sites seem to be saying its happening as well as the chat page of Lizard Squad...when are they going to stop.

Update: It seems like valve is being able to keep up with these attacks, the servers are coming up faster than last time.

Update: All servers in CS:S crashed except Italy!
