if we could magically ban all pedos or furries i suspect there would be a disturbing amount of overlap.
subhumanrow_require pictures of ur head to be sent in if you're caught cheating and let phrenology decide if u have the bulbous head of the cheater"he may have been staring at people through walls but his noble browline and cheekbones are not that of a cheater"
Hunter eyes are the eyes of someone who could learn from a mistake like cheating after a temporary ban. Chud physiognomy reveals the character of one who cares not for the integrity of a competitive game or even has faith in any society as a whole and will exploit and game anything they can without remorse. Truly a handsome cheater is one who could be rehabilitated.
Was planning on doing a longer video documenting everything relating to scrap.tf starting with geel's poorly received advertisements for the site on 4chan and the classic footrest incident shenanigans and going all the way through the semi-recent joking allegations leading to actual victims coming out against the pedo grooming echochamber the scrap.tf staff had actually been doing as well as the lackluster damage control afterwards. Been putting it off because it was always a funny topic to me, but the recent developments have warranted a much more serious tone and I think I have to reconsider my entire approach to the subject.
RFK will take away my precious seed oils NOooooo NONONO
troll feeding in 2024 is crazy
this is interesting because i feel like its been allowed for a long time and people didnt realize how busted it was until recently
my little sister's username used to be DogCream because she thought it was funny and it made others uncomfortable. weird kid.
is he even good enough for an alt to be sandbagging
i like mumble a lot more than discord, but a lot of newer players have never heard of mumble and discord is just a lot more commonly used nowadays so i would have to opt for that

I'll focus on the main part of your reply: You are defending the current arbitrarily constructed meta by pointing out that it has not been constructed arbitrarily at all: Instead, it is intended to maximise skill expression. That is a very interesting idea.
Skill expression in 6v6
I do agree that TF2 classes do not have balanced skill expression: Classes like Demoman, Pyro, Soldier, Scout, and Spy all have deep and unique skill expression in their weapons and movement, while classes like Medic, Heavy, Sniper and Engineer do not have much else than the ability to shoot and basic movement. (Medic and Engineer both even have a form of autoaim)
So then, why would there be an exception for Medic? Medic is the most important class in the game, but far from the most skill expressive. Without medics, lot of stalemates would never even happen. After all, you are less punished from taking damage when you have a medic in your team. Wouldn't that be a source of negative skill expression? Medic makes the game easier, and patches your mistakes.
But that leaves us back in a circle: Even when looked at the lens of skill expression, the ruleset is still arbitrary and seems to exist just to enforce the current meta, even at the cost of some skill expression
Weaknesses as skill expression
You also mentioned that Pyro has weaknesses that Soldier doesn't have, and therefore it makes no sense to switch to Pyro. And that's a perfect explanation for why 6v6 games tend to slow down: As you said, the current arbitrarily chosen meta (2 scouts, 2 soldiers) revolves around the fact that Soldier and Scout have very few weaknesses to exploit.
6v6 has an unique issue of the game slowing the down upon the slightest change. But in retrospect, that might make perfect sense: Allowing 2 extra strong classes with few exploitable weaknesses decreases the importance of individual mistakes across the board: Punishing Soldier's mistakes when he can easily reposition himself is harder compared to punishing Pyro's or Heavy's mistakes, when they can't. Your explanation of weaknesses gives an eloquent explanation to the source of stalemates, giving light to how stalemates might be solved: By weakening team compositions.
Your response has been very enlightening. Class' exploitable weaknesses are a great way to enforce skill expression. Kind of like Highlander, Spy: The weakest class - But that's what makes a good spy player so important, to be able to turn a low kill count into something more.
are you an ai trained off of r/tf2 posts
we were the schizos all along and brock saw the truth......
i think the goal should be working towards making bans completely unnecessary. good enough anti-cheat and word/name filters would mean we could just unban everyone and have as many competitors as possible. disagree with the political views of your opponent? drop their med.
isnt toxic like when something is r really poisonius
can that type of thing relly happen ina videogame chat!?
