My facebook stalking skills are very limited but the image in question comes from the facebook page of a hairdressing salon / barber shop, not a personal profile. As far as I could tell, the only information available about the woman in the photo was a first name. I have zero interest in any of this nonsense but I am tired of seeing misinformation repeated for the umpteenth time.

What is this bug?

Just curious what you mean by air control. Everyone in the air is subject to the exact same air physics. Airblast does not remove the ability to air-strafe.

I think there are 2 issues with the airblast: 1st, it doesn't have any falloff so getting hit by the edge of it is just as bad as getting hit in the face with it, and 2nd, it ignores your current velocity and resets your velocity to a fixed value regardless of what it was before.

I've tried this approach and the viewmodel barely blinks on the screen long enough to see what it is. You have to hold down the button for the viewmodel to be displayed. Here's what I use instead:

// turn on viewmodel when switching weapon
// turn off viewmodel when firing
alias vm_on "r_drawviewmodel 1; viewmodel_fov 54"
alias vm_hide "r_drawviewmodel 0" // hide viewmodel but not particles
alias vm_none "viewmodel_fov 0" // hide everything, including particles
alias vm_default_hide vm_none // default hide

alias -my_attack "-attack; spec_next"
alias +my_attack_no_hide "+attack"
alias +my_attack_hide "+attack; vm_default_hide"
alias +my_attack2 "+attack2"
alias -my_attack2 "-attack2; spec_prev"

alias +primary "slot1; vm_on; alias +my_attack +my_attack_hide"
alias -primary ""

alias +secondary "slot2; vm_on; alias +my_attack +my_attack_hide"
alias -secondary ""

alias +melee "slot3; vm_on; alias +my_attack +my_attack_no_hide"
alias -melee ""

alias +my_attack +my_attack_hide

Basically, switching weapons turns viewmodels on but mouse1 (attack) turns viewmodels off. To use

bind key +my_attack
bind key +my_attack2
bind key +primary
bind key +secondary
bind key +melee

Should be in requests, not recruitment, I think.

Ask the hotel concierge about local shops that sell electronics - they should know where to find things.

Quickplay is basically playing server lottery in a pool of servers dominated by cesspools like premium servers and servers that run intrusive obnoxious HTML ads that cannot be closed even after leaving the server, and half the time it doesn't even come up with a server with decent ping. I am not sure why anyone would bother with it or be sad that this horrible broken feature is no longer in the menu. Just use the server browser and favorites tab. If you insist, for some reason, on using quickplay you can always bring it up through console.

I like this idea but why does it have to be that complicated? If you go with the control point = point idea, then just give each team as many points as control points they own when the clock runs out. Only capping mid gets you 3 points, losing team gets 2, giving you a net 1 point gain. Pushing the other team all the way back to last gets you 4 points, for a 3 point lead. Winning the map gets you a 5 point gain since losing team gets 0.

Your current scheme gives the team that owns 2nd but not mid a 1 point advantage over the team that won the midfight, which is odd.

Someone should get in touch with these people: http://teamfortress.tv/forum/thread/11991-a-song-for-the-combo

Have you any weird scripts or binds? Alternatively, temporarily bind one of your mouse buttons to "say Button pressed" to test it.

Same menu as the auto-reload, just browse around under Advanced Options and while you are there turn on anything that looks useful.

It looks like you don't have auto-reload enabled and you aren't reloading manually either. I recommend turning on auto-reload in the advanced options.
