I have a small question?

When i start Steam as well as the normal screen showing up i also get a small splash screen showing up advertising some game or other.

I used to have a setting somewhere that disabled it from showing at startup but now i can't find it any more has it been removed or am i looking in the wrong place. :?

A lot of upgrades and updates include the removal of features, rather than adding more customer convenience.

All for drawing your attention to stuff you can purchase. :roll:

And even if some settings still exist, they are harder to find.

The age of algorithms. :mrgreen:
Call Gabe, maybe he can turn that into a game too. One you can purchase on Steam, of course :o

PS Steam still beats Crew2, where you can buy fancy neons for 55K CC, while daily contracts usually are worth 1500CC, so many are tempted to buy CC for in-game purchases to lighten up their rides with cosmetic eye candy :loll:

I knew that, but it is a general plague with updates that functionality gets removed and not added.
Sometimes this leads eventually to a premium account option, where you will have more customizing options and can enjoy the full experience.

And maybe than you will get your favorite options back :party:
