I rate winner. I remember when people would rate not very valuable hat scams winner. Now barely anyone rates winner. :smith:

[QUOTE=Totenkreuz;28612365]All I want if ONE pair of buds. You guys can amass 500 billion for all I care, what makes me sad is how impossible it is for me to get just ONE.[/QUOTE]

Quit crying and get them yourself. No one is going to hand you their's on a silver platter.

Yeah, I remember when every person would rate something winner. I guess we got jaded to seeing a weapon for earbuds everytime, or we just all got jealous and selfish, because there is still a huge viewing crows to this thread, yet only one or two rating per scam.

Cheer up and tell others "Good job" for once. They are working hard to get those trades, and that means you can get those trades too

Where do most people do their scamming? On trade servers or on normal servers with fewer people?

Servers with bots are usually a good place to start.

Golden rule of 2fort is that your target is always an engineer.

They'll almost never accept your trade. :smith:

Press shift+tab then go to View Players or whatever.
Go down that list going to each player's profile, if they have < 200 hours go to tf2items.com and put in the profile link.
If they have a good hat, send a request, and here is how it should go.

You: Hey
Them: hi
You: Do you have a Bill's hat?
Them: yeah
You: Any weapons you're looking for?
Them: do you have a black box?
You: Yes.
[/quote]And then you get your hat.

Remember kids, the people you try to trade are almost never that nice, and in some cases may swear vigorously at you for wanting their item.

Depends on the effect really

Best advice ever. Except try and limit it to around 100 hours or less because people with over 100 hours are cluing on.
