I thoroughly apologize for my reckless post, for I have not read the instructions on how to structure a stream addition request. It will be updated as soon as posible. Thank you for your patience, and my apologies once again.

I am an active member of the community, playing TF2 pugs almost every day and getting involved in TFTV discussions pretty often. My stream is in Spanish mainly, although I also interact in English, where I play both casual and competitive TF2 with facecam and music. I live in Argentina.

I competed in several South American tournaments since 2016 in Open-Intermediate divisions and administrated the SA league Chapelaria for its 2 years of existance. I currently own and administrate a competitive community in Argentina.

Update: i managed to make it work, here's how:

1. Downloaded GCFScape and extracted tf2_misc_dir.vpk from tf folder
   
2. Inside the extracted folder I deleted all pyro-related particles inside particles folder
   
3. Recompiled the volders in several 000-012 vpks just like the original series
   
4. Replaced the original tf2_misc_000/dir.vpk with the ones with particles removed.

And voila, fire disappeared! Can someone confirm if this is legal? i dont wanna get vac'd LOL

this is a pretty good one, I managed to disable my own flamethrowers and now can see through my own FOV but other pyros' flames are still shown and that's what I wanted to disable, im pretty tired of getting blinded by some m1 dumbfuck

you mean grabbing a VTF editor and searching for the flame particle?

the amout of people who think MGE is for winning and growing an ego is astonishingly disgusting, and autistic systems like ELO enforce such a fucking stupid idea

I know there was a way somewhere in the past where you could delete the fire particle from your system or placing some mod that would disable all flamethrowers' particles but haven't had success in finding such thing across the internet. I this still possible? Can someone lend me a hand? Thanks

what the fuck?

Well this should be taken more seriously to be honest because this person named Enzic does not only own a SUBSTANTIAL amount of alt accounts to cheat on pubs for the sake of trolling but also is responsible for many DDoS attacks on multiple competitive events in South America allied with the same group of brazilian people who are also historical ddosers, and helped and currently are helping to slowly kill this competitive scene, but since nobody gives a fuck about this shithole same as Valve doesn't give a fuck about this game anymore there isn't anything you can really do, just switch servers and hope you don't run into him again, you gotta make a habit out of that or else having to go through all that rage over and over again will just drain you off and that's what he (and most internet trolls) wants.

We have tried to take actions on this since that guy ddosed the chapelaria grand finals and we've exchanged info with some community leaders from NA/EU to help us identify and potentially block this person off our businesses, but that ended up on nothing as far as I remember and the owner of the league decided to just kill the league and gtfo instead of keeping dealing with so much bullshit which is honestly what we all should be doing XD

To recap this thread should only be used to let the community know who Enzic is and what he is responsible for (as if something else could happen lmao) so basically this, and take care of yourself

i'm really sad as well

A true sign of growth is to fully acknowledge mistakes from the past, able to understand what you did was wrong/not the best thing and being capable of apologizing and fully understanding it's not a path you should take in the future. I wish more people did what you are doing right now.

I grew up in an extremely toxic environment and got bullied every day just because some elitist group liked to make fun of me and everybody else just followed along because of their status. Some years later some of them came to me to apologize for the behaviours they had towards me and even though I still felt a lot of remorse and doubted whether I should just block them away, I had to value how brave they are for acknowledging their mistakes and looking back to what they did, which is not an easy thing to do and as I've said earlier, it shows a maturity sign.

Words are just that, they mean nothing. Time showed me those people genuinely changed because their actions spoke for them, so that's what actually counts. I'm 100% percent sure if you want to start over in this game and keep playing competitively, even though it will be hard as fuck to (re)gain the communinty's trust and be able to make everyone see you in a different way, if you're truly commited, over time your actions will speak for yourself and people will see that. Good luck.

ah there's just so much stuff against this joke of a human

Even though everyone has already pointed out, I want to express as well how sad and disappointed I am that this community once again has driven itself to its doom at the point leagues had to be shut down. No wonder why truly valuable admins would rather stop working for free for the sake of the community's entertainment than choosing to keep withstanding constant harassments, ddosings and tons of other shit of other players whose only purpose on life is to shit on other people's work for fun and personal satisfaction. I've experienced that myself when Chapelaria saw its death and it's happening all over again.

I want to publicly appreciate all of these years of hard work the (true) admins have put selflessly for the enjoyment of the players throughout the entire history of the South American TF2 competitive scene. Feeling this powerless when it comes to trying to make everything stay alive is not something nice, especially when you love this game so much and want everyone to love it as much as you do. I guess this community will get what it deserves.

RIP Bot. Does the owner desire to keep it alive somehow?

I also get harassed and focused by some players and not because of that I go around making threads about how I'm mad because I get taunted/focused on pubs.
You are giving them the attention they are craving for.
If you could stop making such a big deal out of your transgender/transwhatever situation out of everything that happens to you it would be great.
