Hello everyone!
 
It's your soon ex-TF2 DM coming at you with some news! I'm going to be stepping down from the position of DM. I'll just fall down to the rank of member.
If you're not aware (and care about it), I currently don't have the time to play the game that often, nor can I really browse the forums enough to really see the questions of users, member submissions, etc.
Rather than take a slot and do nothing, I'd rather have someone else be promoted who has the time to give xG a hand.
 
I climbed up as far as I have with the intentions to make the TF2 division a better place. Although, Bello has essentially already done a lot and has beaten me too that. The TF2 division is honestly in a pretty solid state, and I feel comfortable that it will stay that way (even with minor hiccups every now and then).
 
I'll still play the servers obviously and browse the forums when I can. Just not enough to keep up with the quota staff are expected to maintain. After the Holiday season is done with, maybe I'll be back and try to get back into the groove.
 
My friend list on Steam will be purged. I'm only going to keep the people xG that I've really come to know (and you know who you are).

I took your advice virr and emailed NFOServers. After reading through my Reddit post, the CEO himself personally took down the site and suspended the account.
 
Call it a win, I suppose. Now nobody else will fall victim to this scam.

I'm glad you aren't letting this guy get away with this shit.
 
Game Server Rentals and Hosting :: Contacting us :: NFOservers from what i've seen/heard they are really helpful, might be worth a shot. If you are in contact with your lawyer though it might be wise to talk to him first, before taking any action by yourself.
 
Keep us posted, best of luck<3

Long story short: My Amaranthine Antlers have been scammed from me. They're gone. I fell victim to the most elaborate online scam I have ever seen.
 
I won't go into detail here, as I am too exhausted from all of this to retype everything. I have posts on SteamRep, Reddit, and backpack.tf. So I thought I'd inform you all here.
 
bargain.tf is a scam site. The owner of the site has made off with over $7k in hats so far. Don't even think about using them for any sort of TF2 things.
 
If you want the details, here's the links:

PSA: If you are an unusual buyer/seller, steer clear of bargain.tf. The site is a scam site. - Team Fortress 2 Item Trading
 
Safe to say I'm done with TF2 after this. Over three years of uptrading gone completely. And with it, my soul and desire to play.
 
Whoever the dude was that made off with my hat, I hope he sells it for a good amount and can actually use the money. It was just going to go to making my kids' Christmas better, is all. Maybe he NEEDS the cash. I dunno.

@Goodra I have made a conversation with you and the rest of the TF2 higher-ups. You can tell us there.
 
I'm going to close this thread to prevent any unnecessary flame wars from occurring. Also, if you feel as if there is a problem with a staff member(s), please tell us or make a "Member Protest" thread instead of making a post that is super vague.
If any other higher-ups feel as if this thread should be re-opened for a reason, then go ahead.
 
- Closed.

@Bello (Bello) - Team Fortress 2


 
 
Congratulations to the winner of this months Screenshot of the Month! This is a reminder to those who would like to participate to check out the Entry Thread for details and requirements on how to enter.
If you won, you should expect to see a message from me on Steam or on the Forums for you to choose your prize.

He has xG tags on his name already if that steam ID is actually him, i don't know if he's just memeing but regardless he just needs an admin+ vouch and he's in. Unless TF2 Divs decide to close his app for later, it seems like he's good enough for community. @Bello

Welcome back dude, glad to see ya again!

Some of you may remember me, I used to be the division leader of Minecraft for about a year until I died* and never came back.
 
 
Until now. Hi.
 
 
*died as in my computer died and by the time I had to make do with a bad laptop for a while so there wasn't much point in getting into any games. Got a new one now so will be back.

Minecraft is progressing well, will post update pics soon ^_^

~Closed due to no proof

The fact that you use the word "snitch" to describe this shows just how much you know about how things work. We're constantly telling people to record evidence of abuse and report it on the forums because staff should know better in the first place. If the incident isn't that bad, staff member gets a slap on the wrist, no harm done. You don't call the reporter a snitch, they're just doing what they're told to do. Using words like that will discourage others from reporting abuse/incidents because they don't want to be known as a "snitch" you see. Communication isn't the problem, the inability to pay attention to the admin handbook is. I try to talk to my DL's/DM's every day about trying to fix current problems because I do personally care a lot about these servers. I report anyone I see abusing their powers or breaking rules, even as a staff member.
 
Edit: Also @Kypari please do not namedrop people, it really does cause a lot of arguments.

Thanks for the PSA Bello, hopefully the staff of TF2 understand this wake up call, and that there won't be any further issues regarding these topics.
