remove the cap for the max elo you can lose. i wanna get beaten by a 1200 elo pyrovision scout while afk and lose 400 elo points

gonna necro because i went through most of these particles recently and found the few usable ones for anyone interested.

"versus_door_slam"
sparks and a little smoke. looks like a regular explosion without the initial flash. can be a little bit hard to see at times.

"crate_drop"
puff of smoke with some debris. animation lingers a few frames too long so i am not a fan but it looks neat.

"mvm_loot_coreflash"
this is my second favorite. white flash that looks a bit like the sunbeams unusual effect. very non-distracting but still looks like an explosion.

"mvm_loot_explosion"
cool explosion effect with white smoke and sparks but definitely larger than regular explosions and a bit harder to see through

"taunt_demo_nuke_explosion_flash"
looks like the default explosion flash with no debris or smoke. rather nice.

"taunt_demo_nuke_explosion"
my personal favorite. small orange explosion with no debris or smoke. about 60% the size of default explosions.

"merasmus_bomb_explosion_blast"
cool looking explosion but it is green so it looks funny.

the default explosions are too distracting for me in DX9, (fine in DX8) but the spy sapper effects and other small explosion options just look bad in my opinion so if anyone has other effects they like let me know pls. these were the best i could find.

i am of the opinion that any community that allows minors to regularly interact with adults without the supervision of their parents is always going to lead to some type of grooming. online games are particularly bad however because growing up with videogames as one of your main hobbies is very likely going to rob you of many important social development experiences and lead to the type of arrested development/socially stunted people who will end up forming inappropriate relationships with the minors in said community because they "can relate to them" and they struggle to form close bonds with people their age due to spending their formative years online. if you look at the rate of esports players getting in trouble for grooming compared to any irl hobby this unfortunate fact becomes impossible to ignore. the only real solution would be to limit these communities to 18+ which would be next to impossible to enforce

lowering your resolution helps if you have a really weak gpu and shouldnt make much of a difference normally. some people claim lower resolutions have less input delay

unban all items except scout unlocks and engineer unlocks

i was really drunk and equipped the mantreads on endif and just watched a 1500 elo player try to bounce me up in to the air for like 20 minutes straight. didnt even shoot at him just ran around and made it hard for him to hit me. my throat hurt from laughing and i still think about it sometiems.

"my friend sent a NSFW image to a (very malicious might I add) 16 year old and he got him banned!"

6pm to midnight PST the na mge servers always have like 8+ people in them

i have never met an east coast tf2 player

oh boy yearly halloween slop

i think i will get banned if i comment on this topic

i think setting up external scripts and class files and such actually raises the barrier more than learning a timing based in game mechanic.
