        The username you used to log in to the forums, Nebula_Storm, only has replays from 2013-2014, long before Steam linking was required (the requirement started in 2019)

        If you played FAF in the last 7 years, that means you have two FAF accounts. Log in with the other one.

        Or, if you haven't played in the last 7 years, then you never did Steam linking. So go ahead and steam-link your account:

              So you should log in with the FAF account Solar_Storm not Nebula_Storm. If you forgot the password you can reset it on the website using your steam account.

                  That means you are logging in with Nebula_Storm, check the username you are entering.

                        All I can say is that if when you try to link your steam to another account and it tells it is already linked to Solar_Storm then that just means that you are not logging into the client with the Solar_Storm account. Likely a typo or accidentally using a different account when logging into the client so I would double check.

                          I noticed that you just used the name solarstorm. That is a different account if it does not have the underscore.

                                If you login with Solar_Storm and it asks you to link then you need to link. But if you link and it is telling you that Solar_Storm is already linked then that just means you are not logging into the client with Solar_Storm
