crackbabydumpsterjust find people u like and hang out with them, its not like anyone worth hanging out with is gunna care how many +frags u get.
i mean i have decent friends that rarely mention tftv when i'm around which is good, but it's only like 4-6 people and i don't always hang in their mumble that much because of few reasons, mostly because they don't really play that much tf2 so, although they're fun to hang out with

besides that uhh...
i don't really talk to that many people on my friendslist because i feel like most of them are only willing to have a conversation with me if i spew shitty memes or something, i only really talk to like 10 people on my friendslist and even then most people i enjoy talking either

• remove me
  
• ignore me / don't respond
  
• give short effortless responses / stop caring about me

and even if they don't do that, i feel like i'm bothering them most of the time so i stop talking to them if i feel like i'm talking too much , although most of the time i end up talking to them later
also something i've noticed is that people only really start a conversation with me if its like 2am and everybodys snooze / offline on steam or if nobody wants to talk to them and i'm like the last person they want to talk so...
crackbabydumpsteri started enjoying this game way more once i just stopped interacting with people i dont like
well i've been doing this for a while (avoiding people i don't want to interact with), but something i realized is that, i only really enjoy playing tf2 while puggin or playing comp in general, and if i want to pug, i have to deal with retards that i don't like, most of the people i strongly dislike in the community pug a lot so...

that's kind why i don't pug as much as i used to, because, even if i have massive urge to play tf2, i don't add up if i see someone i dont want to interact with added up.

it's prob too late to post this in this thread since i feel like nobody really reads this thread anymore so...

i've had this thought on my mind for like a year now and idk i should prob try posting about it in this thread

why do people take tftv like so seriously
this is an honest question

like i'd say that posting in tftv is prob the biggest mistake i've made while playing tf2, well more like posting enough to get recognized from, like honestly i truly regret like ever posting in tftv

you're prob asking why do you still post then if you dont like posting in tftvi've passed the point of no return where, even if i stop posting, even if i somehow nuke all my posts and delete my account from this website, i'd still get recognized by people as "that tftv shitposter", which is something i dont want to be known as, if i keep posting, nothing different will happen, infact, if i somehow delete my account and posts, my rep is prob gonna be worse because i'm not only gonna be a tftv shitposter, i'm a gonna be a tftv shitposter who deleted his posts because he was being a massive pussy.

the main reason why i regret posting in here so much is the rep that i slowly got while posting in tftv, which is something i don't like at all, people treat me differently just because i post in here, people that i've never heard of or interacted with before just hate me already or are at least hostile/mean to me just because i'm a well known poster i guess
i think the best example of this is spaceghostcoffee, iirc the first time i've ever interacted with him he immediately started talking about tftv and my nerdstars and dumb shit like "omg you don't deserve those nerdstars" and iirc he also told to me go fuck myself or something like that it was a long time ago, it's all kinda fuzzy.

EDIT:
(keep in mind that spaceghost isnt the first or last person that has been mean or been hostile to me just because of my tftv posts, i could also talk about n3 and a lot of people in NA pugchamp, but the thing that happened with spaceghost is the prob the best example i can give to explain the point i'm trying to make here, that people take tftv way too seriously and that affects me because people end up being hostile to me)

i don't really care who is or whats their motive, if they mention tftv in my first interaction with them, i will have a bad first impression of them.

ofc not everyone i've ever met in tf2 has mentioned my tftv "reputation" which is a good thing really because i honestly hate this website, but you can tell like how some people just treat me differently just because i'm a poster here, sometimes in a good way but mostly in a bad way
i don't like getting treated differently just because i'm a tftv poster, even if they treat me differently in a good way, i don't like that, cuz i've literally done nothing in the community and i dont see why i would get treated differently.

tftv posts are meaningless and dumb most of the time, same with nerdstars and +/- frags, like esp nerdstars cuz people will literally fuckin cry or some shit if you "don't deserve your nerdstars", NOBODY should take TFTV posts seriously, as simple as that.

and i'm pretty sure i'm not the only person that has gotten treated differently from others just because they're tftv posters, the names that come into mind are maybe capnfapn and billdozer, who if it wasnt for their tftv posting, they would just be some random tf2 players that havent done that well in esea, but i've seen both of them get treated like god comedians or some shit just because of their posts (i'm exaggerating a bit but you get the point i'm trying to make here)

like honestly i would rather be a random nobody in the comp community than to be known as a this, idk, lifeless memer who just sits in tftv, i honestly hate when people think that of me.

although i'm aware that tftv rep is not the only reason why i get shittalked or anything, since sometimes (rarely) play pugs and slightly whine and complain about certain things about my team (i mean, i'm playing med most of the time ofc i have to say stuff like that sometimes), although i do try to stay positive and nice while puggin.

thats another thing also, that i always try to be positive and nice and all that good stuff, but because i have this reputation as a memey lifeless shitposter, it doesnt work out because it doesnt matter how nice i try to be to people, i'm just a lifeless memer in their eyes.

another thing is that, i've always gotten the short end of the stick no matter what, like most of my ""friends"" treat me like shit most of the time, and i'm usually the scapegoat no matter what i do or what they do, it's always my fault, and i'm constantly disrespected by a lot of people for no reason, i'm not saying that i want to get treated like a king and that everyone should respect me, but more like, i just want to get treated like a normal person for once and get treated with a decent amount of respect

like i've never meant harm with my posts or with anything really, my posts are just simple posts that i came up with and typed, same thing could be said about most of my actions and stuff, i have good intentions most of the time

like everytime i notice that i get shitalked, or get treated differently, or someone is being hostile to me, just because of my tftv rep as a poster, i feel like i have my back against the wall, a wall that i builded myself and i cant destroy or anything, it's just gonna be there forever.

this could also just be me being a massive emotional fag but who knows

EDIT 2:
i think people would assume that i hate the concept of nerdstars just by saying that i completely hate this website, like i said yeah nerdstars are fucking retarded but whats more retarded is how people take them so seriously and get so mad when someone who has them "doesn't deserve them".

i won't get mad if my nerdstars got nuked or some shit infact its something i want since i kinda just want to stop existing in this website
