I just bought the game yesterday from Steam, and I am experiencing the same problem.

My Steam account looks like it's linked to the Factorio account, but I can't log in to the Factorio account and play multiplayer games because it tells me to buy the game.

I also have this problem as well as several other steam users: http://steamcommunity.com/app/427520/di ... 202058287/
Please resolve this issue so the mod portal can be accessed.

I'm a Factorio player for some time now and i've read the Forum every week at least once ( FFF ^^).
But until now i haven't registrated on your Page yet, since i play on Steam.
Today on the 0.13 Patch-Day i finally registrated because i had to, to play with my Friend later today.

Sadly im also an victim of the "Free Membership"-Bug.
I hope it is fixed soon.

Still you made a really addicting game so far..good work!!

What would a world without Bug be? Quite a boring one!!!

Edit:
I forgot to tell you one thing in the registration that bugged me.
My Steam Account was already linked after the registration without entering any data.

Should all be fixed now, please recheck your accounts and email me (support[at]factorio.com) if you still show as free membership

I'd rather not spawn another thread, but what about poor people who bought from GOG and still have "Insufficient membership" when trying to install mods ?

We are adding serial keys for GOG users on thursday,
This will allow you to upgrade a factorio account to full membership on par with website and steam users

It is fixed, your account is showing properly with the membership on the website system, your account was just not verified when you tried to login
