[QUOTE=Anderan;48073443]I see people often talk about how bad the tide turner is after the nerf but every now and then I run into somebody who has apparently mastered the damn thing. They always know when you're around a corner, they always know when you're out of shots loaded, and their sword always seems to hit you regardless of how far away you stop them.[/QUOTE] I've been used to charge turning for years. Unless they nerf the thing to the point where I spontaneously shit fire out of my ass just by wearing it, I'll never stop using it exclusively.

[QUOTE=Zenamez;48081456]In recent news (which affects TF2) - [URL="http://www.destructoid.com/valve-no-longer-restores-items-lost-in-steam-trade-scams-294996.phtml"]Steam support is no longer restoring 'scammed' items.[/URL] They must feel both Steamguard and the trade-offer email system are sufficient.[/QUOTE] I feel at this point if you get scammed out of items it's more than likely your own fault.
Am I going mad or is the wiki down?
Voting bar tends to dissapear as soon as it appears, is this normal or just the outdated custom HUD?
[QUOTE=Spectre1406;48084814]Voting bar tends to dissapear as soon as it appears, is this normal or just the outdated custom HUD?[/QUOTE] That sometimes happens when there's a vote only for the other team, like votekick.
The vote system disappears after you start or make a vote and only leaves the sound effects, most likely to prevent the box from blocking the screen. Enemy team votes only show kicks for a brief second.
Or if someone votes to kick you, because your vote is automatically "no".
I think it's annoying when you can see the vote, but for some reason you can't vote and you end up taking a screenshot instead
Ahhhhhh shit. [video=youtube;YHliqLLwQHo]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YHliqLLwQHo[/video]
So today I learned that if you call a votekick on an aimbotter, all they have to do is switch to spectator before the vote finishes, and it won't ban them. Not to mention you can't call votekicks on players on the other team, and god forbid you try to get the other team to call a vote because "oh the cheater is on our side, we'll win now!" I guess it just goes to show that valve just doesn't give a shit anymore if these are the kind of systems they put into place so they don't have to get involved.
[QUOTE=Darth_Toast;48086121]Ahhhhhh shit. [video=youtube;YHliqLLwQHo]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YHliqLLwQHo[/video][/QUOTE] no. NO NO NO NO NO NO

This must be the perk of having Pool Party. [t]http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/447329129848833069/AC5B437FB2CB18F5C6F2803FB115839DCCCD538B/[/t]

"Uh, how do the controls work?"
Nice, $100 ring in store isnt giftable for a week and now the person i was going to give it to is acting all sad because she has to wait Tha week cooldown is such a blessing
[QUOTE=Punchy;48094305]Nice, $100 ring in store isnt giftable for a week and now the person i was going to give it to is acting all sad because she has to wait Tha week cooldown is such a blessing[/QUOTE] I know, right? I was getting one for valentine's day and then when I saw that, I was really disappointed.
I think my Max's head broke. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/kCYMX7A.png[/IMG] It hasn't been painted since I got it 4 years ago.
[QUOTE=Punchy;48094305]Nice, $100 ring in store isnt giftable for a week and now the person i was going to give it to is acting all sad because she has to wait Tha week cooldown is such a blessing[/QUOTE] Speaking of the ring, isnt that a community contributed item? Man i wonder what the creator does with it.
[QUOTE=FiveEyes;48094519]I think my Max's head broke. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/kCYMX7A.png[/IMG] It hasn't been painted since I got it 4 years ago.[/QUOTE] What paint even is that? Crap brown and baby blue?
[QUOTE=FiveEyes;48094519]I think my Max's head broke. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/kCYMX7A.png[/IMG] It hasn't been painted since I got it 4 years ago.[/QUOTE] My guess and question would be "does it have a halloween spell on it?"
[QUOTE=ODSP;48094665]My guess and question would be "does it have a halloween spell on it?"[/QUOTE] Nope, I don't like Halloween spells. They all suck minus the Flamer thrower one. [QUOTE=The Yiffy Fox;48094585]What paint even is that? Crap brown and baby blue?[/QUOTE] You have a funny idea of what brown is then.

[QUOTE=DavidCameron;48094865]There used to an items exploit, like the no equip region one, that allowed custom paints, and then valved patched it and no one could do it because some idiots abused it to get free keys.[/QUOTE] I can find nothing about this, nor have I ever heard of this. [QUOTE=DrPyspy;48094818]What is up with the paint though? Black and blue?[/QUOTE] It used to be Team Spirit. I think for some reason the hat still thinks its painted the Blue and cannot figure out what the original second color was. I'm actually starting to remember some sort of patch that came out around the time I got the hat that dealt with paints, but I can't be for sure and the wiki is down so I can't check patch notes.
[video=youtube;PFfa60O8Y48]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFfa60O8Y48[/video] [QUOTE]various detonator-related pub clips. includes some of the more risky/showy/creative uses for the detonator. i tried to gather a lot of varied examples of the detonator's potential but even all this is just the tip of the iceberg. was planning to use these in a long and detailed tutorial video which never happened but hopefully you can take something away just by watching carefully. here is the txt i was writing for it: [URL]http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=XVHhs2E7[/URL] it is really long and messy so if you can't be bothered reading, here is the biggest tip that so many people disregard: HOLD ALT-FIRE WHEN DOING DETONATOR JUMPS TO DETONATE THE FLARE AS SOON AS IT EXITS THE BARREL. IT TAKES LESS DAMAGE THAN IT WOULD IF YOU LET IT COLLIDE WITH THE MAP (~25 vs 38 hp) AND DOESNT EVEN SACRIFICE MUCH POWER.[/QUOTE]
Ok I know I asked this before but I can't reach the wiki but all the website uptime checkers says its just me. Am I going mad or is it down for everyone else?
[QUOTE=StrawberryClock;48095783]Ok I know I asked this before but I can't reach the wiki but all the website uptime checkers says its just me. Am I going mad or is it down for everyone else?[/QUOTE] The wiki's down for everyone, but the actual page called [url]wiki.teamfortress.com[/url] that redirects you to the main page is still up, which could be confusing the checkers.
