2723 hours on this account, not factoring my time on my alt account, my old lost account, my brother's account from when I was little and not the hours from my time on The Orange box on Playstation 3.

Team Fortress 2 is a Magnum Opus of gaming with it still having an active Community that is willing to fight for the game at all costs. What other game series has a dedicated community like that? Overwatch's community is parasocial at best. Call of Duty takes it's fanbase a joke to milk money from.

Team Fortress 2 has had many ups and downs but, at least a few years ago, the community and Valve were always ready to set right or remedy any issue they came across. But now Valve has decided to stop caring. TF2 is at a state in which Valve will always profit more than they have to spend on fixing a game. It is a very toxic situation Valve have placed themselves in. The community has always been vocal, it's always been proactive, that includes it's less than polite means of getting through to Valve which the vast majority don't support but also won't admit exists.

Dear Valve, fix Team Fortress 2; Save Team Fortress 2. If you do not; you set a very bad precedent within the community. You will have lost to a bunch of basement dwelling ingrates who've not seen the sun in years. Is that the reputation you wan't, Valve?

If you have indeed given up on Team Fortress 2 and it's community, and even the Counter Strike community as I am aware they are in a similar state; then it would not be unprofound to believe that they will be coming for you next Valve. If they are comfortable already, which they are, with breaking laws to abuse, harass, slander and blackmail the community and content creators for this game, then what is stopping them from going beyond that?

You have become a massive letdown with the likes of Ubisoft, EA, and god forbid EPIC being more active and effective in cracking down on harmful individuals which for a company that started from humble beginnings is truely embarrassing Valve. All jokes, jests and insults thrown your way are beyond justified because only when your reputation is on the line do you listen to us. Well newsflash Valve, your slipping.
