DISPLAY STEAM ID

Historical capture recovered from the Wayback Machine · captured 2014-04-26 · 6 posts
Hey TWL staff! You guys should make it possible for TWL members to display their Steam ID on their profiles instead of just their Xfire. I'm not sure how doable that is but it would sure help out everyone on Black Ops who wants to contact their opponents or just find scrims.

Thanks!

your SCID can be used to find your user name unless im mistaken

Being able to display your SteamID or whatever ID for the game you play has been a part of the function on TWL since like 1980. I'm not sure what you're not seeing, but if you enter an ID, which you have to for just about any game you play on TWL, others can plainly see it.
You can't search players by their SCID or their SteamID number. you can only search them by the email they used for their steam account or their steam user ID such as "theory317". And no, not everybody has their SCID and steam ID number entered on their profile. Black Ops was the first time I've ever had to do that. Why can't there be a box right below the xfire box on our profiles for steam ID? Not the number... the username we created.
If they want you to see it, they have it listed. I have no SteamID in my profile. Why? Because I've never owned a steam game.

Those that want you to know, or remotely care, will make sure it is available to you I'm sure.
what hes saying in in our profiles you give the option to put xfire username so people can add us for matches and so on when they look at our profile.. what we want is a spot where we can add our steam name so people can add us on steam by looking at our profiles.... xfire is not a main stay any more and this little feature from you guys would help people get in communication for matches and so on outside of match comms..
