All I've noticed are a lot of new threads that go nowhere when I click on them.

I have the same problem. This new automatic verification from Steam is a pain in the ass and causes a lot of trouble. Sometimes it takes forever for a comment to appear on a thread, or maybe never.

for threads, try modifying what you're doing, they should show up in under a minute, if over a minute you're fucked. try not editing threads and just comment updates, comments can be seen anyways via quote at worst

Anyone being an ass?

Unfortunately yes!

Finn Bálor reserved a game in my split here: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/groups/groupbuys/discussions/14/7198511214974098894/

Here's what happened after I sent the game:

[11:30]
Finn Bálor:
Sorry, I got it from another split.

[11:33]
Bernie_23:
How come you didn't let me know?

[11:36]
Finn Bálor:
Because I literally just got it now from a different split

Edit: so Finn Bálor just sent the payment, possibly because someone posted about this thread on the bundle split? Had to refund it though because I scrambled to find a buyer in the meantime and sold it at a loss. Not cool being stuck like that and not fair on the other people who could not reserve it.

In fairness, it was looking like your split may not have gone through at all, with you struggling to split all the games over almost a week time.

When checking Finn Balor's posts, he did not reserve Airborne Kingdom in another split. Maybe he just didn't want it anymore and made up an excuse?

The timing of him letting you know was piss poor, but on the same day you were still saying you were 2 games short to do the split. So he presumably did not know you were about to buy the bundle.

I'm not taking either side here, but just saying I can see it from both sides.
