My country isn't on the list on steam profiles

12-16-2010, 02:10 PM

Hi, I just want to let you know that my country- Serbia, isn't on the list of countries that I can choose as my location on my STEAM profile, but it is on the list of countries in STEAM store etc. And on the same notice, Yugoslavia, a country that doesn't exist anymore, is on the list. Could you please correct this. Put Serbia on the list of countries on steam profiles, and remove Yugoslavia from the list of countries on STEAM profiles and STEAM store. Thank you.

its only for download servers so why would you care?

No it's nothing to do with download location. It's the list of countries you can choose from to display in your profile where you live.

I have New Zealand on my profile, but usually have Australia as my download region. The things are not related.

yup spacebug is right, I'm not talking about the download location (I have that set to Hungary btw). And it doesn't matter whats "cool" or not, the fact is Yugoslavia doesn't exist for 4 years now, and it's on the list, while Serbia isn't. I just want to be able to choose the country that I live in, as my location, on my profile.
Anyway, I wrote to guys over at Steam Support with this issue, and they told me to post here.

Its because serbia is the worst country in the world.

We have blocked all incoming connections from serbia on my server.

yeah sure whatever, I didn't make this thread for discussion or to give space for ♥♥♥♥♥ like you to spread their point of view. I made this thread so the admins could see it and correct the mistake.
Valve obviously has nothing against Serbian money, cause I can choose Serbia as location when I buy stuff from Steam. I'm sure they just forgot to update profile options.

They use an old country list but apparently they are working on using a new one.
