Weird behaviour when running with Steam

Issue description

I don't know if this should be should be reported or not, since you mentioned running with Steam might cause some weird behaviour. Nonetheless I noticed these bugs while doing so:

  • Running Steam and playing in-game (Counter Strike: Global Offensive) causes people I'm playing with on any given server to appear as if they were my friend in Punk's friend list. Although the only available option in the right click menu for those players is "View Steam profile".

  • Starting Steam causes all friends, confirmed at present to be offline, to appear online in Punk playing the last game they were playing last time I had Punk/Steam running.

Closing Steam and then restarting Punk restores Punk's friend list to how it should accurately appear.

Suggestions

Perhaps if this can't be resolved, or even if it can but won't be till a later date, that a disclaimer in the readme stating that running Steam beside Punk can cause unintended side effects.

Running 2 Steam clients on the same machine is not advised in general, I might look into it but for the time being, I'll probably add just a disclaimer.

My steam account doesn't works anymore.
