According to whois the domain is marked ClientHold - this means the domain is subject to legal dispute or non-payment. :-o

It is removed now.

steamcommunity.com is also registered with Network Solutions. I wonder if that blew up in Valve's face.

That's what I was thinking. Probably some illegal content on the forums that caused someone to file something to cause drastic measures

Whatever is hosted on the domain, registrar should never intervene without a court order.

This is beyond comprehension how registrars are abusing their clients.
