Can't access steam?!?!

Hello, I don't know if this is the right topic place for this but w/e (not really) anyhow... I was playing CS:GO and when the match was finished I automatically went offline but I was offline like I don't know how to explain it... Then I closed CS and on steam there was a message something like "Steam Servers are updating blah blah" something though my friend which I was playing together with didn't have anything like that. Then I logged off from steam and tried to go back but I couldn't, my friend checked my profile and it was all of a sudden empty... No picture, no nickname no nothing. Why am I writing this? I just wanted to ask if someone else has experienced this sort of thing. 

There are possibility that I was banned, but there shouldn't be a reason for that.
Another possibility is that my account was stolen? Though I think it's close to impossible because of the mobile authentication.
And third is that it's a bug?

Just asking if someone else has been there... ;D

Steam is down right now.

Don't worry, you're not banned. Valve tells you if you're banned or anything of the sort.

"Normandy" i7 4790K - GTX 970 - Phantom 410 (Gun metal) - Z97 Extreme4 (asrock) - 128GB Crucial SSD - 1TB WD HDD - H60 Refurb. - 7 case fans | G710+ Keyboard, G230 Headset, Acer GN246HL Monitor.

Quick thoughts on system: I7 is extremely quick and I'm glad I spent the extra for hyper-threading. I regret my decision to get the GTX 970, it has horrible coil whine. There isn't any excuse for this terrible whine I and others are having. I HIGHLY recommend a 144hz monitor. Future Improvements/upgrades: Rubber fan mounts, basic speakers, more ram (for a total of 16gb), replace GPU.

144hz is love. 144hz is life. I like to submit unfinished posts then do about 20 edits. I like the Night Theme too.

I wonder how many of these posts there are... Steam goes down a lot, and there is always at least one of these it seems.

 

We need to pin https://www.issteamdown.com/ somewhere...

Solve your own audio issues  |  First Steps with RPi 3  |  Humidity & Condensation  |  Sleep & Hibernation  |  Overclocking RAM  |  Making Backups  |  Displays  |  4K / 8K / 16K / etc.  |  Do I need 80+ Platinum?

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.
