I'm not saying this. There are probably many weapons that we can unban and nobody will even use them or they will just be cool niche weapons. I just don't think we should unban guns that are blatantly overpowered (eg wrangler) just because Valve matchmaking allows them.

I'm not talking about the vacc specifically, I'm just saying that we don't have to suddenly unban all weapons just because mm is coming out. vacc sucks and can be unbanned without a problem, but when you start to talk about ridiculous weapons like quick fix and gunslinger it seems pretty terrible to me. If gunslinger were allowed I probably literally would stop playing the game. There are a few other weapons that come to mind that completely ruin the game and when they are unbanned it will essentially change the entire game. Like imagine a season where people could use gunslinger, wrangler, quick fix, pomson, and sydney sleeper. Would you want to play in that? I sure as fuck wouldn't.

Consistency between pubs/mm and actual leagues is important but we can't just unban all the shit that everybody knows is OP just because mm is released. Sure once Valve makes efforts to change the weapons we could probably unban them even if it shifts the meta a little because we want consistency, but the way everything is now it would be really bad if we unbanned everything. I'm not trying to say we should just ignore all the people who get into the game for mm, but we can't compromise the integrity of our game as an esport just to get more people. Lowering the skill ceiling will definitely bring in more new players, but is that something we really want? I think that one of the main reasons people like games like TF2/Quake is that they have that really high skill ceiling relative to other kinds of games and it is awesome to watch the best players in the world and strive to be that good one day yourself. Reconsidering our whitelist is fine but I just think that some people might misinterpret what you're saying and try to use your argument to unban really dumb shit and ruin the game.

Yeah this happened with yuri in the old thread but it's not something that will consistently happen. It made sense because he only had 1 really ridiculous log. If you have a lot of logs above 90% and nobody knows who you are then it is extremely unlikely you aren't hacking.

This isn't necessarily true. There are many games that have a different format in their high level competitive form than in their public matchmaking version. This can range all the way from the minor difference in bomb and round timers in CS to playing almost a completely different game with promod mods like in CoD 4.

We don't have to accept Valve's decisions if they are bad. The majority of players in the community don't want to play with dumb unlocks and we can keep playing our game if we want to. If Valve makes enough adjustments then we could probably switch over and most players would be fine with it, but it's not like we have to stop playing the game that we have loved in its current form for years just because Valve releases a new in-game matchmaking system.

As far as vaccinator, needing 4 rockets to kill a medic seems pretty stupid and is kind of annoying but the gun seems pretty bad overall in my experience. Hard to know really without having played with it with teams actually planning around it instead of just retards using it in lobbies or pugs with a messed up whitelist.

This isn't an uncommon name here, I know at least 2 people with that surname

He said he already works out a lot in op

No this was like a month ago and I didn't really think it was worth saving the demos because he's already proven he can just get himself unbanned from tf2c and he doesn't play esea. He did say that he would give me any povs that I wanted so if anybody sees him playing and they think he's hacking ask him for his pov maybe he'll give it to you.

I mean while this thread is still unlocked may as well post about the fact that rondego is still blatantly hacking in lobbies and presumably still in ugc (unless he got banned but I don't think he did). He doesn't seem to just hack all the time now though, the only times he hacked against me seemed to be ragehacking once he was losing bad enough.

My Grandfather smoked his whole life. I was about 10 years old when my mother said to him, 'If you ever want to see your grandchildren graduate, you have to stop immediately.'. Tears welled up in his eyes when he realized what exactly was at stake. He gave it up immediately. Three years later he died of lung cancer. It was really sad and destroyed me. My mother said to me- 'Don't ever smoke. Please don't put your family through what your Grandfather put us through." I agreed. At 28, I have never touched a cigarette. I must say, I feel a very slight sense of regret for never having done it, because your Steam profile gave me cancer anyway.
