Can’t believe how poorly @Steam is dealing with the #SteamDeck reservations. So broken from trying to reserve one they won’t even let me purchase games at all.

@Steam Hi! I have a question that isn’t covered by the F&Q, so maybe you could help me out. My question is, how do I get one considering your servers are completely broken and as such I got my account locked for too many incomplete purchases? Thank you! 😡🤬

@Steam How is it that after a wealth of history and experience with the problem of slammed website traffic, that you learn nothing about how to manage the problem?

@Steam Is there an outage right now with purchasing the steamdeck reservation? I've been trying to purchase since 12:02pm CST, but the site keeps crashing. I tried from my phone and 2 other PC's. It seems to crash when selecting the payment type PayPal, cc'. Now I'm locked out?

@Steam So apparently signing in at 1:00 and trying to click through to order a bunch of times only landed me a "you have attempted to make too many purchases" error. So how long do I have to wait before it will let me try again? I'm so bummed :(
