Unfortunate truth is the game is on its death bed and we're still bickering about how a gamemode is run. If you want things to be better, actually do something to fix said issues instead of complaining on the competitive tf2 version of reddit.

Hard to really pinpoint how much this game has meant to me. I remember launching it as a kid in middle school, to playing 6s in high school, to eventually playing jump maps and speed running for top times as an adult. It's really just meant the world to me at every spot.

I made so many good friends throughout my journey, and while some didn't stand the test of time I still value every person I've encountered on this journey. I was a very difficult person to be around for much of the time I've spent in tf2 up until this point, and I can't express enough gratitude that I was never shunned despite how moody and temperamental I was.

I would say my favorite part was the friendships I gained, but also just growing up with the game and it being my main competitive outlet over the past 10 years. The kindness and acceptance I've experienced in the community cannot be taken for granted, and I hope everyone knows how great of a place this game is.

I was groomed a fair amount when I was a young 16/17 old trans girl in this community. Some of the groomers are permanently banned, many are not, and unfortunately I've witnessed a lot of my peers from that era end up repeating the cycle of trauma and passing on the pain they were undeservedly given to the next generation of young community members.

I really plead with anyone who's ever been groomed, or hurt in other ways by sex pests, to attempt to seek mental health resources and deal with the pain that was inflicted on them.

Only those with elite open knowledge remember this. (and probably also s23 drama alert nation)
