What version of the game do you have? The number on the main menu should say 9.2.5.

Have you updated Steam and checked for updates there?

Steam should automatically prompt you to update the game when you login to the client.
You can check if you are on a beta build though I think the XP build is from around 2015 (9.1.38 itself is August 2017) and the rest should be more recent so that is probably not an issue.
That said you can try to verify the game files.
Finally you can uninstall and then reinstall the game. That should make the client pull the latest version of the game

Ah, you're a pirate stealing our game. Your account has been deactivated until you can prove that you've actually purchased the game.

Really? Linking to a pirate site on the developers forum and admitting you got the game from that site? Sorry to be blunt but that not the smartest move.
Admitted it being a pirated version does not surprise me given the age of that version. Getting a link the pirate site however very much does. I had expected this topic to quietly die when all answers where effectively "use the client where you bought it".

Have to say though Balthagor. Removing the reference to the pirate site is compromised a "bit" when you quote the original, unedited post.

Sounds like the creative anti-piracy measures some games have used.
My favourite is probably Game Dev Tycoon.

After that message pops up a few hours into a playthough of a pirated version the players will start to have their games pirated to such an extend that eventually they go bankrupt. Yes pirates playing the pirated version ultimately lost the game to piracy.
A quite fitting and hliarious way to lose the game.

Yes people came to the developers forum to complain about it. In their defence though it is less obvious than linking to a site that mentions cracks and a number of prominent pirate groups in its google search description.
