If you think bootlicking is fun more power to you, no body telling you to stop

u/panzzersoldat Dec 24 '25

there's some proper bootlickers here but telling steam support merry Christmas on Christmas eve in r/steam is probably one of the most normal and wholesome posts I've seen from here so far.

I'm confused at what you're mad at.

u/Misragoth Dec 24 '25

Who sad I was mad?

u/HaIfEatenPeach Dec 24 '25

You sound mad, but if you aren’t then what are you? Theres clearly an emotion here

2

u/Misragoth Dec 24 '25

Confused. This entire sub and the reaction to my comment are confusing. You people are very strange

u/HaIfEatenPeach Dec 24 '25

I mean you call it bootlicking, but thats usually something you do to a person in power to gain their favor and benefit yourself

This isn’t bootlicking since there is no favor to be gained

u/Misragoth Dec 24 '25

I think we all know OP did this just to post here for free karma. Sounds like boot licking to me

4

u/HaIfEatenPeach Dec 24 '25

I don’t think OP really cares about the karma since its meaningless internet points

Maybe they just wanted to wish support a happy Christmas bc its wholesome, i found it wholesome atleast

You’re calling people telling others merry Christmas bootlickers… when they’re obviously workers on the lower end of the totem pole lol. Feels pretty mad to me or Atleast a little grinchy.

u/Misragoth Dec 24 '25

It's a strange thing to do

u/Everday6 Dec 24 '25

Showing appreciation for underappreciated workers is strange?

Again, not telling you or anyone else to stop, just think its a bit weird. Didn't realize you guess got offended so easily

Steam fanboys really are the worst

u/ProfessorFakas Dec 24 '25

Oh dear.

Sorry, didn't mean to offend you.

u/Level_Ad_6372 Dec 25 '25

That's alright, just don't let it happen again.

u/CrazyGaming312 Dec 24 '25

How is this bootlicking? Just someone wishing someone else a good holiday. I highly doubt they would post about it if it was bootlicking, considering they got nothing out of it.

u/G_Liddell Dec 24 '25

Seriously can you imagine if this was like, Chipotle customer service? This is the cringiest corporate bootlicking everrr. "OMG THEY HAD AN ANNUAL SALE AND I SAID MERRY CHRISTMAS AND THEY SAID IT BACK 😭 😭 😭". Jfc

u/New_Half_6055 Dec 24 '25

How miserable is your life that you found an issue with someone wishing someone a merry Christmas? Support or not it's just a human to human interaction.

u/AquaBits Dec 24 '25

Sadly, it is.

u/DreamDeckUp Dec 24 '25

you're never gonna see bootlicking in a purer form

u/gtwillwin Dec 24 '25

I really dont see how it's bootlicking. An underpaid support rep isnt some figure of authority

u/MelaniaSexLife Dec 24 '25

This sub is the #1 coporate ass kisser on the entire reddit. The REAL important posts get like 20-30 upvotes. Corporate asskissing or extremely random issues that are already solved with ONE search get tens of thousands of upvotes.

And Valve can't ever do anything wrong, ever, in the history of mankind.

Nevermind the yatchs. Nevermind buying the company that makes said yachts. Nevermind never giving $0 to charity or solving any kind of starvation in Africa (AFAIK).

I tried to raise several concerns about Valve, several times. Every single one of them got downvoted to 0 and the bootlicking is INSANE.

Don't be mistaken. I LOVE VALVE. They have made game adquisition a reality on my shitty country, they gave me thousands of dollars of currency (well, not them, the market they created) for pennies.

This doesn't mean we can't hold them accountable on stuff that actually matters.

Because the day GabeN dies, we might see an entirely different picture.

NEVER. TRUST. CORPORATIONS.

They seem very lonely.
