Well, we have to remember that these are all hypothetical situations. I don't think Valve has ever fucked up an community asset so bad that the creator wanted it to be removed.
didn't neo want the hot dogger removed at one point?

BUT IT'S THE BEST HAT IN THE GAME.

no never
I think if they have to restrict a community item to make it fit, it shouldn't be added.
themed items don't always fit all year around yknow, it'd be like, not restricting a huge heavy coat and sweater item for the heavy while the summer event was going on. they should use common sense when restricting items, the cortex command isn't just a halloween item, it can fit all year around.
They didn't restrict the Christmas items last year and most of them are considerably more themed.
they're going to make christmas an official event with a boss or something and set more restrictions, I wouldn't be surprised
The thing that's truly bullshit about restricting items isn't the fact that they're being restricted (though personally I feel that's bullshit as well), it's the inconsistency with which they're restricted.
The last two Halloweens have had community items that haven't been restricted as well as the last two Christmases. But then you're suddenly going to decide this Halloween that holiday-themed community items should be restricted? Okay. But then you make only [i]some[/i] of them restricted and others somehow exempt from the rule for no apparent reason? [i]Really[/i] Valve?
If you're going to restrict holiday items, restrict [i]all[/i] of them equally. Go back and retroactively restrict previous years' holiday items and make [i]all[/i] of them restricted. Don't play favorites and decide through some arbitrary and unfair set of rules that somehow makes some community items subject to them and others exempt. Either go all the way or don't go with the restrictions at all. Anything in between is unfair bullshit.
I didn't get any items in with this update which is massively disappointing for me, but in a way I'm kind of happy I didn't because I think I'd be even more pissed off if the items I got in the game were unfairly handicapped for no reason. I was considering making some stuff for Christmas about a week ago but now I don't even want to bother because of this.
obviously the only solution is to remove all hats from the game
[QUOTE=Sparkwire;38213912]what if you got something in and they really fucked up the actual asset. would you just accept it and not complain?[/QUOTE]
That'd open more doors of opportunity than not having it in at all. Seeing as Valve loves their tight-knit existing contributors, I'd be ecstatic to see that I'd have an opportunity to have a second contribution. Would I be a little unhappy? Of course. But I'd definitely not take it to complaining.
Question: Does anyone from Valve actually visit/monitor the Emporium threads, considering how much accepted content is churned out here?
I would find it strange that the on-going issues with items persist if Valve actually watches this place. Also, is it really just one guy making all the item decisions over there?
So my middle mouse button is broken. How the fuck am I going to rotate and pan with Blender now? And no, the arrow keys suck.

Doubtful. I know Tony Paloma may have stuck his head in once or twice a very long time ago, but nothing in recent times. That I know of, the only community they rarely will look at is SFUF.

concept i came up with. i cant model for shit though
[sp]another penis shaped hat[/sp]
I'm amazed that the main page hasn't been updated in a long time
Can someone make a soundpack for MvM using the Hotline Miami soundtrack? The only thing i ask it's to put the Turf Main music as the music played on the last wave
Hey, didn't last year someone make a mod that replaces the Loot Island head with Royzo? Could someone link that?
Asking for the third time, Is there a manifest file that specifies startup music for Halloween?
Edit: In other news, SFM HLMV still is intact.

Ditto. Honestly there was no doubt in my mind these items would be restricted. It happened last year so I figured they would to the same. I'm surprised people thought otherwise.

it didn't happen last year. These are the first community restricted items ever, and we didn't expect this at all considering how absolutely absurd the notion is.

Put a bit of snow on it, give it a paragraph description about how Santa's answering wish lists in a different way this year and it'll be set to get in!
Oh yeah and that RED logo orientation makes no sense.

Let me clarify. Last years Halloween items were restricted so I automatically assumed the same would be done this year for all Halloween items, community made or not. Absurd or not I refuse to believe I'm the only one who saw it coming.

I love it. Postman heavy says "Return to sender!" It would be great if regular shots were envelopes and critical bullets were packages, :)

I'd actually enjoy a system that would restrict items to certains maps. Like, only being able to use halloween items on spooky/autumn levels, only being able to use christmas items on winter maps, etc.
I'd actually like a system where only the most extreme, gameplay effecting hats were restricted
so basically MONOCULUS and the Horsemann Head and maybe the zombie skins

I like the idea, but I feel it would become awkward on servers with rotations - one round you'll be viaduct, the next on lakeside and the next on harvest and having to change your loadout accordingly each time.
Gah fucking cat, stop fucking jumping on my desk and showing me your asshole while purring loudly, I got your fucking hairy ass tail right in my face and now I can't top sneezing
