Either you are terrible at internet sarcasm or I'm not sure what to say for the other option.

Gonna take your post serious and ask why you would think that a 2 digit that was registered on a different server than your mid-high 7 or 8 digit(don't really know what your STEAM id is) would be newer than your id when it is a 2 digit?

I've heard two different stories about the 0:1 and the 0:0, and the first one would say you are indeed correct, and the other would simply be a distinguisher for which ID generation server your ID originated from. So is it the first, the second or both? Or are you just awesome period?

It's just which server your id came from.

Aside from the obvious elements of identifying (uniquely) an account, its type and the domain (universe) it belongs to, SteamIDs can be used to approximately determine when the user associated with the SteamID first created that Steam account. Lower values of 'Z' in the format described above (i.e. the account number) indicate an account made further in the past to one with a higher value. For example, a SteamID like STEAM_0:0:1234 would mean that the user signed up for their Steam account a long time before a user with a SteamID such as STEAM_0:0:12341111.

The value of X is 0 in VALVe's GoldSrc and Source Orange Box Engine games (For example, Counter Strike: Source), but latest Valve games such as Left 4 Dead, Left 4 Dead 2 and Alien Swarm have 1 as a value of X. The value of Y is normally 0 or 1, which used to be the authentication server the user is on, but now it doesn't mean anything.

lolkidsmad

thx for the link, it's much better to understand for myself. You were right. I stand corrected. Do you have issues with civil conversation?

No, I just questioned your reasoning behind thinking that any 2 digit would be higher than 7-8 digits. I could understand if you thought that the 0:1 version was higher than all the other 2 digits like they started over after it went to 0:0:99 then 0:1:10 and 0:0:999 to 0:1:100, but why 0:0:9999999 to 0:1:?? I've heard multiple things throughout the years like the thing above, retail vs online, area vs area, certain days give certain numbers, and even the length of your username when you log in!

Just didn't know you needed a source to prove something instead of someone saying, saying "oh, ok!" and moving on when Kwang said the exact same thing and I told him he was right and that it was the server..

Perhaps I wanted to learn more about it, and since you obviously know, I figured the best place to ask for a starting point was you.

and btw, yes i thought it went 0:0:999999999999 -> 0:1:12345678 so with that logic: 0:1:23 would be later than 0:0:5449098

also ... I heard you liek dix

That idea just seemed so far from anything that I've heard that I thought you were just being a dick to him like you see 2 digits on a daily basis. If it was that way, there would be the largest rush when the new STEAM id's came back around the 2nd time for everyone to get a low digit. On second thought, it would be better for them financially, lol like they really need it, to do it like that because of the rush they would create buying new games. They thought it was bad when TF2 was $2.49 and needed to do a 2nd day of it because people couldn't buy the game, this would be at least 100x worse than that.

Also, did you know that there is no 0:0:1337 or 0:1:1337 because they thought that whoever got the id would eventually put it on a place like eBay for thousands and thousands of dollars and violate their ToS? And that this guy http://steamcommunity.com/id/stevech3n/ is actually a 1 digit(0:1:6) that got his account hacked(lol 5 free STEAM games) and whoever jacked it had the brains to hack on it because they knew he would get it back and got it VAC banned.

Nou!

take note the number of 7 digits checked vs 8 digits.

7 digits : 340874 SteamID banned of 3942799 checked
8 digits : 31099 SteamID banned of 334340 checked

Little bit of a difference don't you think? 4 million(almost half) vs 300k(1/100), just for an average banned, multiply the 7 digits banned by 2 and the 8 digits by 100. Just by going with what they've found so far if you multiply the 8 digits checked that are banned by 100(because there are 100x more 8 digits actually out there than checked so far), that would add up to almost a 3rd of the total 7 digits, ALL the 7 digits. But then again there are about 3.4x more 8 digits than 7s so far.
