That is pretty egoistic.
What about people, that are away for a longer time?
They come back and lost their "URL".
And how do you expect for this to work? Those URLs are bound to login names. If a name is taken, it stays taken, since it is a login name.

A custom URL is not bound to your login name.

That's not true, when u create ur account u got a generic number as an url.
Longer time? 4 years or 3 years is crazy man, people could just login once for year to hold their url.
This is not egoistic.

Are we talking about www.steamcommunity.com/id/USERNAME ?
Or did I understood the topic wrong?
Because the id URLs are bound to the login name.

Tell that to people, who work in the army, on oil plattforms or anywhere longer, where there is no internet connection. Three to four years is not long.

No. People take long breaks from gaming (especially on specific platforms) for reasons already mentioned above.

You shouldn’t get to steal their username/URL because they’re “inactive.”

They can tell it to their family or friends, "Please log on my account once each year".
lol

It's not egoistic they can hold their url if their family or friend help them; family or friends log in with their accounts when they cant.
Easy.

No thanks. I don't want to come back after a long hiatus to find my custom URL was taken away.

Seriously, why would anyone bother their family with stuff like that? That would be egoistic, too, in some way. Like "Hey, login with my game stuff, so I don't lose my URL"...ever asked a grown person that? They would be like: "WTF?, no time for that, stop bothering me with such unimportant stuff, get a life".

And what about people, whom don't have any family members? Ever thought about them? Yes, they exist.

Url reset for inactive accounts (3 years or 4 inactive)

Well, there's alot of accounts of low lvl (Less of 10) or inactive accounts that had taken a url.
And I think this should be changed, if ur account is inactive the system reset ur url to generic numbers.
Just think, if someone dies tomorrow noone is using the url now.
So why someone that is not using it can keep it?
That's not fair.

MikeB (left Valve ages ago) was working on the ability to take custom URLs from inactive accounts. He left and no one has picked up on that since. https://archive.is/jd5mO

Try to have friends, when you are old, alone and work away from home, where there is no internet. I dare you.
Life ain't that easy, as you think it is. Some people have really hard lives. And you try to take a portion of their achievements away. They came first, so they deserve to have their URLs.
