That Huo Long Heater was renamed and redescribed.It also has a killstreak on it.
[QUOTE='[ToRn];44656604']Kbee is definitely a girl. She just uses that picture as her dp.
She used to play frequent a server I funded/admined, and she used her mic. She's really touchy from what I hear. I've only played with her, nothing more, never had a conversation with her. But I know people who were somewhat close to her, and apparently she can be very whacky.[/QUOTE]
What he said. Been in Ventrillo with her a few times so I can confirm. Not to mention trade servers.
We used to mumble together when we played mvm together. She unadded me once one of our close friends had a falling-out with her. But she is definitely a girl.
Does it really matter if its a girl or not?
Whackjobs are universal regardless of gender. Seen plenty of trades where, almost certainly, the poster is male - yet they also fill in tons of needless colored text, heart icons, emoticons and whatnot.

Google image searching the avatar brings up a person called Laura Ivana, which is a person from Romania I believe? Not entire sure.
But yeah, you'll find those kind of people not just in TF2 but in other games as well.

What the heck do people actually mean when they say an item is "duped" as in duplicated?
I've only ever heard the term applied to Unusuals, so there must be something to it.
I mean, there are a zillion Strange Bushwhacka's or Genuine K-9 Manes. You never hear of them being 'Duped'.
Of course an Unusual is more valuable, but there is something here I am missing, considering the term is thrown around so much and I dont have a clue as to why.

For almost every Strange Bushwacka you can track it's history to a Crate, meanwhile Duping is what happens when in the item's history 2 people have the same item.

A duped unusual doesn't mean there's more than one of it (like there being more than one flames team captain).
Here's how you generally get a duped hat:
Someone owns a nice unusual. They get their account stolen, the unusual is taken from their inventory and is sold on the market to some gullible guy. Meanwhile, the person who had their hat stolen gets their account back. Steam will restore your inventory once (and only once,) so he gets a new unusual along with the rest of his inventory. This new unusual is a "dupe" because there's 2 unusuals of the same ID, same everything. They're pretty much exact copies of one another, and they share the same history (which is one of the best ways to figure out if your unusual is duped or not) . And for some reason, people value a duped hat less than a non-duped one. It has to do with the item being less "genuine". I think it started out with collectors caring about it (which is understandable) but now everyone wants to avoid having a duped hat.

The 'duped' items can also be traded to friends alt accounts so you can get it back and do what you will with it (although to get your inventory restored, I remember reading something about your account has to have Steamguard activated before they'll do any restoring).
The item is also valued less because there's this community wide fear that the dupes will eventually be deleted (doubt it would be hard to do so. After all, it's as simple as just running a search and deleting duplicate item IDs).
I see. So its more artsy-fartsy Unusual'ers complaining that their overpriced hats arent worth enough. I dont meant to sound pretentious in effect, but its just that there seems to be SO much hassle, drama and fuss surrounding Unusual hats that they simply are not worth it. At all.
Any player wearing an Unusual in a match sticks out like a sore thumb. You can literally spot them a mile away in amongst a horde of their team mates. I suppose some people like it for that very reason. I do not.
Again, purely subjective based upon personal opinion, but I think all of the Unusual effects are gaudy and ugly in themselves.
OH LOOK, MY HAT HAS AN ORBITING BODILY ORGAN ASSOCIATED WITH LIFE AND THE PRESSURIZED MOBILIZATION OF BLOOD WITHIN THE BODY, ALSO ATTRIBUTED TO SUCH EMOTIONS AS LOVE AND CAMARADERIE.
> Floating love heart.
If I ever came across an Unusual myself, or something like an Australium Pan, I'd damn well sell it. No point in keeping it when I can make a real-world exceptional benefit from it. (Thousands of dollar$ as it seems to be)
But yeah, getting off-topic. At least I know what 'Duped' items are now.

????????????????????
I think you're taking unusuals a bit too seriously when you say that.
Thats the joke / point.
Most Unusual traders / people associated with Unusuals seem to speak of them in such a manner.
Such as :
WE ARE INCREDIBLY OVERSTOCKED IN :
Super-Intergalactic-Proton-Powered-Mechanical-Advertising-Droids!
+Themed! +Set!
