Hard to fit it all in the subject line. Essentially Gabe wants to charge you more money cause you're an asshole.

Ahh, I heard this story last week - Gabe said some highly interesting things in an interview. This all sounds totally impractical, but Valve... man, they make me wonder. I wouldn't be surprised if something like this happened eventually.

Not sure if this where this article got its quotes but when Steamcast interviewed Gabey a couple of months ago he talked about doing this
Maybe it is going to happen!

Yeah, if they put this into place, I would uninstall Steam the same day. Let's just look at how well they handle things that are relatively easy to keep track of, like the code of their video games. Yeah, they've got a strong track record of not fucking that up.

Now let's think at how complicated a mechanism to "rate" players would be, just for like 10 seconds. Yeah, you think there is any way Gabe isn't going to totally screw the pooch on that one?
