So let's talk ETF2L. They tried to sweep the racism of some players under the rug because they didn't want to lose half the prem teams in playoffs apparently. It was lost in the shitstorm that is this thread but it's definitely something that needs to be talked about

With other platforms making statements I'm expecting ETF2L to do the same. So let's discuss change. I do not expect bans to be given out to Pred and Degu, but I would like to see clear rules because they're clearly not being enforced properly atm.

Let's not forget le epic joke of Degu being tagged as bin.ngr on Bin Black during a casted match this season.
Pred's always been known to be a racist. Don't think I've ever seen him say something that isn't racist/homophobic in twitch chat and he's known for shouting the n-word during pugs all the time. I doubt anyone (aside from his few remaining friends that think what he's doing is funny) will care if he's never allowed to play on pugchamp or officials

Also Degu is currently a TF2PL admin though I know people have been contacted about that so i don't expect that to last.

if this is misinformation then I apologise. I did not mean to spread lies

arekk called nursey a slur. He apologised but then phorophor PMd her more slurs

alias fix "record demo;stop"
bind [key] fix

These are the only 2 you'll need for models. It is possible snd_restart and hud_reloadscheme already put too much strain on your PC causing the demo recording to get messed up. I've always had this on a seperate bind like posted above and never had issues with it. If this doesn't work then something different is wrong and you might have to go verify game files, reset to default settings, reinstall, etc

Ah yes, the intellectual returns with another flawless hot take.

Because if you're an asshole nobody likes you. example: you.
Nobody said you have to be nice unconditionally. Do I try to be a nice person? Yes. Am I being nice to you right now? No. Why? because you deserve it because you're an asshole. Very hard concept.

Uberchain isn't part of the competitive side so I have no clue why you'd think this applies to her. She knows many competitive players, has attended events and made SFM arts to promote events. But this is no reason for any "animosity" to be aimed at her. And she got harassed for posting about how she was sexually abused so it wouldn't apply even if she played comp TF2.

If cs:go players say the n-word in a match they'll get banned. There's limits. And it's time we set those limits in TF2. Also if you think there's no shittalk during games then you've never watched competitive TF2

You are very disconnected from reality and are just typing the first thing that comes up in your mind hoping it applies to the situation (2 nerd essays in and nothing has so far. Keep trying buddy. You'll get there eventually)

Nobody ever said this is about becoming an esport. This isn't about TF2. This is about not being okay with harassing sexual abuse victims. If harassing sexual abuse victims is a normal thing in esports then let's not become an esport. You missed the entire point of this thread. epic

Warnings at the very least. Bans more than welcome imo but we'll leave that to the admins to decide.

Sure dude everyone gets sexually abused all the time and then harassed for it that's completely normal haha. You've not been following what's been happening clearly so I'll just forget I ever read this.

I hope so.

I needed this. thank you

Sad/good thing is I wouldn't be surprised if open teams start signing up now for them

faceit didn't kill tf2center
rgl won't kill ugc
(many more relevant examples out there)

TF2 players don't like change. Only the top plat teams have a reason to switch for the prizepool. Only thing this can kill is RGL Prolander if the Highlander mains that went from Highlander to Prolander initially don't want to play vs froyo (if they're the top prolander team atm. correct me if I'm wrong. I don't follow 7v7)
