100+ of Different Threads Against Friendlies and About Raising Up Issues With Them {+} Statistics

[Tutu 💚™❤️ ~^^)]

Before I start, you're free to form your own opinion, and I don't force you to take any sides.

You should decide for yourself, and you deserve to have your own opinion because you're a free individual!

I also kindly ask you to be constructive, and if you don't feel like engaging in a proper way, I persynally think the better choice is to not to for your own sake.

I'm just here to point out issues I consider the main in the Team Fortress community.

Anyways, ^this thread^ serves as a source of useful and undeniable information for you to see, learn and take notes from if you want to educate yourself and other unaware/uninformed/doubtful of friendlies people, erase misconceptions I consider pretty dangerous for the game, and acquire solid arguments that could be used if you're anti-friendly to support both your claims and point of views against problematic friendlies, this can also serve as a showcase.

Linked Anti-Friendly threads here are mostly from the TF2 SCUD ("General Discussions" Forum, to be specific) with more thought given to it and an appealing to the eye design.

With this intro out of the way, we may proceed.

I present you,

nobody is reading all that

[Tutu 💚™❤️ ~^^)]

(I was writing that in a bot thread)
Also, why does the Team Fortress community treat TF2 like it's their country and VALVe is the government?

You're not a "citizen" of TF2, you are being provided with a product to play it, and you're not forced to play it, and it's your choice whether or not risk investing in it, they are free to do whatever they want with TF2, their choice is to slightly maintain it since they are clearly not interested...
I wonder why?

Why the sudden demand when the bots came when Team Fortress players, in my subjective opinion, aren't interested in playing the game (or anything like that for the matter IMO), but just crouchwalking around and getting sad over people playing the game, this rises the question for me, why do friendlies all get that upset over bots?

I don't think I get it...

The solution has always been community servers to make everyone happy but you just refuse it for some reason.

Could you kindly tell me why?
Thankies if you will!

..But have you checked every discussion from this thread of mine?
Do you "Love is Love!" what I do?

Learning lessons when I can't breathe
It's harder, it's harder, it's harder to sleep
When it's late at night and I wish I could tell
And I wish I could burn but I'm already in hell

Everything I did here I do the same in real life if I'm interested.

For example?

Friendlies are #1 issue with Team Fortress.
Unironically worse than cheaters and bots, and that's a proven by me, objective statement.

Anyway, RedReimu, you can start listening to people who are unbiased, what I did was based on my interest, not hatred.
Who care about all people, not only about those they have bias for.

Don't listen to people who argue for the sake of winning the argument, not to make the world better.
Hear out the opposition, do not generalize. Compared to me, Rando is an angel.
Don't let anyone tell you what or not to do, what to or not think.
Don't let people swap your opinions with their own ones.
Don't let someone manipulate you.
Always think for yourself.
Doubt.

Depression makes you unable to think clearly.
I can and will help you if you want.
I'm an expert.

Whether I am bad persyn or not has no relevance, someone is an actual evil, but I don't know who.

Can't help but perfect things I'm interested in and point out severe issues in the Team Fortress community.
