This is a copy of a discussion I posted in the non-beta forums. I hope it's more likely to be noticed in this beta group, as was suggested by (username) Crazy Tiger.

Is it just me, or have I uncovered a glitch in the Steam Client review system?

On July 10th I revised the text for several of my game reviews. After doing so, my "hrs on record" appeared equal my "hrs at review time". But a few days later, for these games the "hrs at review time" reverted, even though my revised text as written on July 10th remained intact.

If any of y'all are interested in investigating this potential error in the Steam client and petitioning the Steam devs to correct it in a future Steam update, try this:
1. Subscribe to this discussion.
2. Find a game (or a few) in your collection that you have played a few hours since first reviewing them and update your review text.
3. If after a while you notice your "hrs at review time" reverting, report the problem here and to Steam devs as I already have.

I finish with the final message from Steam Support in response to my inquiry:

"Thank you for taking the time to report this issue. Unfortunately, we do not have a fix for you at this time.

Along with reports submitted directly to Support, the Steam team uses a number of community sources to help investigate the frequency and severity of issues like this. These issues are continually being addressed through Steam Updates. Support does not provide any information on upcoming or planned fixes.

Again, I am sorry that we do not have a fix for you at this time."

Oh, and by the way my Steam Support Ticket is still listed as OPEN and I can provide the ticket number if necessary.
