Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

MODERATORS
I'd imagine so, it's an d game, not sure how much they're still making in it (not much I'd guess given the rampant hacking concerns and protests I've seen online)
So... Why not do the cool thing and open source it for the community to maybe build something cool in it (hell I'm SURE someone will make some neat stuff)
They finally addressed the hacking/botting issue.
Usually valve releases boxes with skins for summer, halloween and winter. I dont know if some are made by valve or all are community created with a cut for the creators. But it seems a low effort way to keep making money out of an old game.
And TF2 is still extremely popular, both with high player numbers, active content creators, community tournaments and the like.
