    [SOLVED]Steam and it's shitty ways

    kay, so i've been using this account for like over a month now. i used to have a pirated copy so what i did was , just pasted it in steam directory and validated been playing all fine
    Yesterday i got another account..i logged into it, and tried to play mw2, it says localisation.txt not found, and puff, the game exits. I switch back to my old acc, and THERE! steam is downloading the entire fucking game again! so i again pause update, copy the pirated one,..etc..etc. and validate, ready to play.
    I test it works fine then i again switch to the old acc, and i run , BAM! fucking localisation not found, and BAM! Game reduced to 6 gb again.
    I know this ain't a steam forum, but hey no harm is asking you techno-geeks

    If I make a mod that you think is easy to make then don't flame me because I did something that COULD of done, I don't care if you can do it or not, the point is you gotta start with the easy stuff.

    Well I guess that might be why..you effectively using the same cd key if you know I mean.
    For instance, if i activated my mw2 retail on my steam account, and then got another steam account and tried to do the same it wouldn't let me...so that might be ur problem.
