For those who are pissed off at all the "fml" users of Steam, or those who are one of the "fml" users of Steam...

Welcome to the Anti-Apparently Depressed Attention ♥♥♥♥♥♥! This group is here for both the people who are ticked off by all the depressed users of Steam, and the "depressed" users of Steam.

• Names such as "fml", "silence", "nobody", "kill me", etc. All are used to basically draw attention to themselves.
• Refusing help is another such thing. You say "What's the matter?". They say "I hate myself and you can't do anything so ♥♥♥♥ off". Charming.
• Saying "don't talk to me" when there are much easier solutions than having a go at everyone who messages you.
• Going on a server you regular and complaining how life isn't fair, etc.
• There are plenty more.

But if so, they most likely wouldn't be broadcasting that to the world of Steam. Here are some steps you, the so-called depressed Steam user could take to stop being an attention ♥♥♥♥♥.
• Your name is just going to attract attention. As we've seen, people apparently don't like being messaged while depressed. Therefore, to avoid that, just leave it out your name! Why does your name need to be "fml"? It can stay "Bob" just fine. Chances are you're not depressed or just want the attention if you can't be depressed without having people give you items or talk to you.
• Don't want people messaging you? Option 1: Block your friends list, then unblock them when you've "recovered". Option 2: Go offline. Then you can even play your games whilst feeling bad about yourself. Option 3: Leave your computer alone or even better, just turn off the message noise. Is it that bad having people message you that it will worsen your depression? Just untick your notifications and you'll be fine.
• So, someone messages you about it. Your name is "i want to die blah-blah", and someone is telling you that you shouldn't think like that. But no, you choose to explain how depressed you are. "Oh, I <insert barely bad reason> so depressed suicide soon". Don't start outpouring that bad excuse just to get a "Aw that's so sad, here take my affection and pleas for you not to die and my items to raise your backpack value". Just leave it, or you just seem like an attention ♥♥♥♥♥.
