I was very anti steam when it first came around and only got an account once CS forced me to to continue to play. My join date is the beginning of 05 so you must have been a super early adopter!
Ha, this is almost my story too. Hadn't played CS prior though, I got enticed in by CS:S and bought Half Life 2 and Steam just for that.
I started out on CS 1.3 and Day of Defeat, I played source a lot too but then after that lost a lot of interest in it. I tried playing CS: Go for a while but it was never the same as those early days in LAN cafes and on shitty slow internet :D
