Fuck… when you drink normal stuff you're just normal, but when you have alcohol it makes you really fucked up and twisted. It seems to affect your typing too. It's actually really scary… but it kind of makes you awesome…

I'm not very old, but I feel otherwise. I'm 29 now. When I started playing TF2 it was the 25th of November in 2012 which meant I would have been sixteen. It was almost definitely the reason I failed a lot of exams and dropped out of school. Now I'm 29 years old. I don't mind strangers knowing that. I'm 29 years old and I never made the leap to playing serious competitive Team Fortress 2. I knew some people who played it and reasoned that that and UGC was enough. It isn't and every day I regret not playing when I could have. I mge'd and lobbied, and pugged sometimes, in house. Now my only escape from casual matchmaking is Australian "noob pugs" and the other guys are really young and way better than me. I once made a joke about a player being born after TF2 came out and everyone else said that didn't mean much. That's a difficult thing to get over, though I'm sure it's a universal experience.

My favourite ever memory from TF2 will always be watching Crowns win i58 at the NEC. LANs are the best and I think in the future to avoid having to play with incredible young people I will just go to australian LANs and feel like part of the scene without having to play.

I used to be a big Twitch head and pugchamp era b4nny streams could sometimes be an incredible orchestra hit of all the funniest or best American players bouncing off each other. I will remember the late 2010s with fondness forever—everything around the reaction to matchmaking and the pyro update, the schism of implacable optimism and vigorous pessimism, the death of ESEA and scramble for a way forward. I think I'll always F.W. b4nny too.

TFTV has led an onerous trundling life along the way and while it's now I suspect little more than a habitual bookmark-check for relics of the 2010s I for one will remember it as fondly as anything and I'm glad it was never subjected to a redesign or ignominious shutdown. There used to be some really funny guys posting here. World-class posters, and sometimes they were kind of nice at the game as well. The happenings threads around which the site seemed to revolve seem to have been, like a lot of the internet, subsumed by discords. It would be nice if that was not so, or somehow reversed, but people will post where the activity is and they are fond of convenience (of access rather than layout). Let's just hope everyone remembers to check that their posts follow the forum rules and guidelines or gets formatting help. PLEASE EMBED YOUR IMAGES or at least upload to imgur or your own personal website. Nobody wants to click on your (often short-lived) image URLs, I reckon, let alone be reminded of how much private discussion is going on in Discords out of the "public square"!

Speaking of voting in elections, if you guys live in democracies, I recommend voting for a party when those things come up. If you live in an authoritarian kind of place, find some place else you can vote, like a poll or just kicking somebody from a pub. It's a great way to feel powerful—especially if you are, or turning, an obscene age (27+), and the consequences of things like staying up late or having too much of a good thing are, or are starting to become, unbearable. I've had four little beers and one big one tonight and I'm expecting to suffer like a killer in Hell all tomorrow. Just how she goes these days. And I can't even say at least I had a good time fragging out in my twenties. Fuck it all. Just kidding. I invite my fellow "uncs" to add me and we can talk about our favourite shotgun pockets or YouTube Poops.

They never stay up longer than a year. And embed your images too. Were you all born in barns

Looking forward to seeing the back of that nerdstar

Hi everyone. I made a light hearted parody of Future Brock's vid and I wanted to share it.

And that just about wraps my thread up! Thanks for reading. IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

I think your ahh should be in the dumpster! That said, I am curious what the "biggest rule" is.

I promise I will as soon as I get out of this mess…

Perfect! But—uh oh…

There's a European just outside, his animal unleashëd. Europeans go crazy for threads, and I'm covered in them. It's too risky. You'll have to distract him so I can climb out.

I was sniffing around the dumpster for funny threads and I fell in!
If you can help me get out, I will show you something incredible.

Pretty much every day, once I've checked my Socials and News, I hop on here and check the threads while I prepare to enter the right mindset for a long day's gaming or just sitting around at the computer. It's one of the only places you can really do that anymore. It's nice to have a forum in this day and age. (Some people don't think so though. There's something called the World Economic Forum which some people seem to think is Cuck/Shill. I think they just have Discord bias.) Anyway, I've become quite used to checking the threads, clicking maybe one with my Logitech G703, remembering I read it yesterday, then going back to Twitter to make something up about shitting myself. But recently all that has changed, and I just wanted to congratulate the users of Teamfortress.TV for the spate of interesting TF2 threads looking back at fond memories and debating the present course of game strategy and I hope to see more.

I'm saying this and I'm saying it in Mario's voice.

If you insult me again I will take you from +5 to +4 >:(

I usually just boost all posts in the direction the people have chosen, whether it's mine or someone else's. The only conscious upfragging/downfragging I do is to make sequential patterns or round numbers or punish my enemies
