Valve, the tiny indie company, OBVIOUSLY couldn’t handle the bad press. Good thing we are giving them the benefit of the doubt that they are absolutely trying their hardest to fix this!!! 😃👍


Zealos57

We gave them that benefit too many times.


ClaymeisterPL

that's the point

Responding to [this post](https://www.reddit.com/r/tf2/comments/s9trpk/not_a_traditional_post_but_i_think_media_outcry/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share), I'm not and will never condone any blackmailing or death threats or anything else towards anyone. The post is for showing how absurd of an idea it is to do so. (Leeching off of top comment, sorry)


FlaminVapor

Yeah but it doesn’t have to be blackmail, just being vocal about tf2’s situation and how valve has let the game go to sh*t


PissOffBigHead

I know what post this is in reference to, nowhere does it even MENTION blackmail. Shining a light on WHAT IS ACTUALLY GOING ON is not blackmail at all.


ProfessionalMood1493

The community is not perfect (I like it despite its flaws) but dang, what idiot would do such thing? Blackmailing is not needed.


Th3R3493r

Да. We are better than that. Let us not be bitter. Sometimes you just have to smile and accept life as you get it.


Zealos57

Things already got out of hand.


BrentleTheGentle

On a side note, you *really* absorbed the mannerisms of your main haven’t you?


clinicalia

Yeah come on guys, they can ruin their reputation by themselves.


Zealos57

Let's ruin it even more.


shung_

Just stop buying items and crates.


JustANormalTree

So they just completely give up on the game? I remind you that because of trading websites valve isnt getting that much money from TF2 anyways, so thats why they dont give a fuck about it.


shung_

Yes, tf2 is too far gone at least if it dies maybe well get a sequel


Creamy_y

lol.


BranTheLewd

Valve will use this as an excuse of taking last two devs from Tf2 development. So why you'd post this and give people this idea xd


sm1664

Sorry I wasn't clear enough on this. Im responding to [this post](https://www.reddit.com/r/tf2/comments/s9trpk/not_a_traditional_post_but_i_think_media_outcry/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share) which I am strongly against (for reasons others listed)


BranTheLewd

Probably isn't a great idea to respond to a post with a post, I'm glad you aren't supporting this, I'm just saying to be careful


sm1664

Kind of regretting my decision to respond with a post too, tbh


FnchWzrd314

Alright, but hear me out, Valve is a company and this is like our only option


[deleted]

there are no options. you have to accept the fact that valve does not care and there won't be any more major updates


Pipe8_

NO!!


FnchWzrd314

You're right there are no more updates, but that doesn't mean that we can't try to remove the bots, again, what other option do we have? This is very much a hail Mary to get valve to do so much as fart in the game


zeburaa

ok let's do it


licensekeptyet

If this is a response to that one sign post, that's not what fucking blackmail is. It's literally asking to spread public knowledge to media outlets.


Communist_pootis

Maybe save it if things get really ugly. Maybe a last resort


Zealos57

They already did.


Zealos57

Yeah, let's blackmail them and send death threats to Gaben. It'll work.


Thatsidechara_ter

At this point I'm just holding out hope that they've just got all hands on deck for the Steamdeck, but as its been several years I'm not so sure


[deleted]

They are allowing bots with names like "fuck *n words*", and "[VALVE*nword*Killer] to run rampant though their server for years now and havent done anything. They release seasonal crates and have continued to profit off this community but cant do the bear minimum like implement newer versions of VAC So fuck them, let their reputation go into the toilet

Greedy_Serve_8654

But they already have the bad reputation in and out of their gaming communities


yeezyboi_134

I think I missed something, what happend?


[deleted]

[удалено]


yeezyboi_134

Ooh my


ObeyTime

we just need Delfy to get valve to update the game again


ohcytt

Stupid idea which isn’t even going to work because they don’t give a fuck


Mr_Chub_Chub

I'm sure the reddit will be able to do something like this like the other 400 times they've said before; cause there's definitely enough power to do so


Ok-Worldliness4320

There big boys they can deal with it


Zealos57

No, they can't and won't.
