Valve speaks

[KorJax]

In other news valve says that they will have a fix up tomorrow for those who got legit items accidentally removed by the system (by checking to see what achievements you have and then re-rewarding you).

[If-I-Die-Its-Lag]

Well, I'm not that pissed. In fact, Valve just did my spring cleaning for me.

haha oh wow

PROTEST BY HAVING A GIANT SEX ORGY OUTSIDE VALVE TOWER

Cause that'll show em who's boss.


Not quite sure if they're joking or not...

Wow. I always knew the steam forums were pathetic, but look at this.

Yeah, it's a group 150 strong who are so butthurt about getting their idled weapons taken away that they will outright refuse to heal anyone wearing a halo.

This truly is pathetic. I never received at hat. Infact, since the last update, haven't been getting anything at all. The fact they upped the drop rate on hats pissed me off even more.

I finally get one (sort of a crappy one) as a sort of "consolation prize", but by wearing it some people aren't gunna heal me? I finally got a hat, I'm gunna wear the damn hat, if you don't heal me and we lose because of it, then it's your own damn fault.

Backfire we don't need their heals anyway

WE GOT THE AURA OF INCORRUPTABILITY!!!!

Still kinda lame.  Not like idling takes less time or anything.  Hardly cheating since I could just as easily make my own server and idle there, burning CPU.

I'm glad I quit playing ages ago.

Because hats > life.

Because hats > life.

Truth. On the bright side, Valve says they've increased the drop rate.

Ha!

Thank god!

[Montoya]

So does this mean we get the default level items we deleted to make room for leveled ones back?

[ZargonX]

I got a halo

[Benito Mussolini]

I got a halo

So did I =D

Funny thing is: we got it the same way the idlers did: doing nothing.



Oh... look at that... those who idled the most (by idling from the idle program) got hats.
Such irony.

Sorry Honest, but Bentio is the new Pro Idler. The man meta-idles.

Also Lol at the shitstorm. This is all rather absurd; I miss when +50 backburners were the biggest controversy TF2 had to offer

[Vongore]

Lesse, on my end nothing is gone. I do not have a halo, as I idled.

Also the fact that Valve kinda sided with the smugfags kinda pisses me off.
