something that just occurred to me after reading a bunch of threads on the leak business
how come 'gabe' only posted on this forum, and not say, on valves website, or the steam site, or anywhere else for that matter
was just thinkin that if the hackers were able to copy files from his machine whos to say that they wouldnt be able to get his halflife2.net password and post on their forums, announcing the leak only served to further promote it, whereas if valve had said nothing it would not have been as high profile as it has been
certainly if i was part of valve software i wouldnt want everyone to know that my last 5 years of hard work was freely available to download
make what you will of this, just speculation
