Valve Takes Action Against The Dupe Hats.

Recommended Posts

So... only allowed to have one single hat, ever? What?

No, they're just cleaning up the hats that dropped in a mass amount for select people, playing 24/7 you should get like one hat a month with the .5% drop rate so this is needed.

I got mine while playing on 24/7 2Fort, as I've said before. Using the idle program just makes it more likely for you to actually get the hat. I don't like the way Valve released the unlock system at the beginning of the update, so I have no qualms using an idle program to get random drops. I refuse to play TF2 the same way people play WoW.

I honestly don't care much about the hats, haven't found one either. As a matter of fact maybe I missed it completely but do the hats actually DO anything or is it just for looks?

I don't see why Valve just couldn't make some big achievement, like kill 1,000,000 people, cap a point 5,000, push the kart for 1,000 hours, etc. and do that for each class. Granted you would probably have people on an achievement server killing each other a million times and what not, but at least for the majority of us who don't cheat to get achievements, it'd give us something to wave in people's face and let them know how awesome we are at tf2

push the kart for 1,000 hours

Understanding that it was for the sake of exaggeration, I still cringed at the thought of staying on the cart continuously for a month and a week.

Also, I find it delightfully idiotic that a bunch of them were talking about and admitting to use of the idler program in Valve's own forums.

Valve is turning a deaf ear towards these people I believe, because they know that the new system they have is retarded. They know about the Idle service, but they don't care I think.

They can't do anything to those people. They would have to manually start targeting them for "playing" on a certain IP.

The idle program could spawn a fake server on your local ip and have you connect to it and make it look like a real server. Valve just couldn't win, they lost already.

Valve always loses:

32 player TF2 servers (No hack needed anymore to run with 32 maxplayers or to bypass delisting)

Custom Tab (Removed)

Milestone Removal (Outrage over the new system added the Spy/Sniper milestones)

And there's so much more but I won't bother looking up the others.
