<div class="gmail_quote">I've revised the email slightly to not mention the word profit at all throughout. I've also gone through and checked that it didn't contain any other likely spam words. Can anyone else see anything that might trip the spam filter again?</div>
<div class="gmail_quote">Also, what are people's opinions on emailing a more general address?<br><div class="gmail_quote"><div><br></div><div>-----------------------------------</div><div>To: <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; "><a href="mailto:mcampbell@valvesoftware.com">mcampbell@valvesoftware.com</a></span></div>
<div>Subject: Steam licensing for university computer club</div><div><div>Hello Matt,</div><div><br></div><div>I was given your email address by the Head of IT at a small high school who had a similar request and circumstances.</div>
<div>I represent a computer enthusiasts club (creatively called the University Computer Club) based in the University of Western Australia.</div><div>We are a non-profit (and soon to be) incorporated entity run for and by students of UWA with a small clubroom on campus that contains a variety of old and new computer equipment.</div>
<div>Throughout the year we run a variety of events, the most popular of which are the UCC LANs and UCC MegaLAN.</div><div>My role on the UCC committee is to encourage fresher (first year) participation in club events.</div>
<div>One way in which I hope to do that this year is to inquire about the options available to the club in regards to obtaining Steam accounts for use (only) by current members.</div><div>These would be particularly useful in LAN events where some participants may not own Team Fortress 2, Left 4 Dead or any other game (Valve-created in particular) we may be playing.</div>
<div>I did some research on this topic through the Steam and Valve websites, and it appears that neither the Valve Cafe or SourceU program criteria cover our circumstances.</div><div>Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated. We would be completely happy to display the Valve/Steam logo on our sponsorship page, event posters and general club material.<br clear="all">
