Why does Steam think I am a robot?
Steam's just paranoid. It throws CAPTCHAs at you if it thinks you're moving too quickly, like some kind of cyber Usain Bolt. Slow down, and you'll likely avoid triggering its robot radar.

It's because sometimes, we're just too efficient for our own good. I was zipping through purchases and market listings like lightning last week, and bam, got hit with the 'prove you're not a robot' test. Slow and steady wins the race here, folks.
Looks like Steam's just being super cautious! It's all about keeping your account safe. When you're doing something that feels a bit unusual or speedy, like rapid clicks or moving through pages faster than The Flash, Steam's security system raises a red flag. It's like, 'Whoa, buddy, only robots (or superhumans!) move this fast.' Just prove you're a mere mortal by solving a CAPTCHA, and you'll be back to gaming in no time.
