If you are using nosteam, however, there is a trick. Log onto steam, Go to "Add a Non-steam Game to my library" under the drop down menu of the game tab, and select your nosteam CSS. Now you can play CSS while connected to steam. Keep in mind, it still won't let you into most servers and you may run into some tiny problems.

Not really, here's why:

in the rev.ini you'll see this line:

# Allow cracked Steam clients to join your server
#
# Default = True
#
#AllowCracked=True

Bison has set it to False.
