Yes, Erwin. You did make a bit of a Douglas move in your introduction.
And congrats on attempting to remedy this by starting over. And I trust that all of our Clan and Long Standing Community Members (and potential Prop Hunt Admins) will be more than happy to give you that second chance starting right now.
Welcome to the forums proper. Enjoy your stay here.
key's arent nessecarily needed to start your trading spree, you can start out by getting enough item drops to get a couple refined, trade/craft the refined into a hat and with enough patience you can get profit from that 1 hat.
for example, i buy a craft hat for 1.11 refined (1 refined + 1 scrap), i then continue to go into trade servers and advertise to trade the hat i just got for 1.33 refined (1 refined + 1 reclaimed), after repeating this 5 times you should have enough refined metal to buy 2 craft hats for 1.11 refined.
keep repeating that process and you'll be able to get 3 craft hats, then 4, 5, 6, etc.
after a pretty large amount of time you will be able to get a bill's hat, then an earbud and finally an unusual. which you can then sell for money (to a trustworthy trader ofcourse)
it is a slow process but it only requires a very low amount of money (to become a tf2 premium user, or whatever it's called, so you can trade)
Mister SpudsI don't understand what's going on here...
Quite a lot of negativity in this thread, I guess we don't really need to make new people, regardless of their first impression, feel welcome to our community; Welcome Erwin - Don't let some of these posts scare you off.
Ok ok, don't you think I've taken enough. Surely you should know what I would like to be part of this somewhat 'welcoming'community, after all the hate I have received.
It's nice to know no one really took notice of Helljack's post and gave this guy a second chance.
You know, don't hold back on being overtly negative to downright hostile in your posts because all the cool kids are doing it.
And yeah, welcome to the forums. Hope you don't judge us by the few people in this thread who, out of the complete blue, are acting like dicks. We're normally a very friendly bunch of peeps
