Ok took me a while to find that but it's 4Aug2015 so that's probably the reason then.

Use your Steam money, that which is allocated to your Steam wallet, and purchase something cheap. I guess which is empty. I picked up Insurgency the other day, it was like R21.

Sucks that Steam forces you to buy stuff just so you can keep trading

Mechanisms to stop scammers, scamming which was in the abundance until Steam started to harshly control their store. Gambling on the other hand, the verdict is still open whether Valve cares…

I did, rurchased a R2 odd game yesterday but I think I will still have to wait 30days after the purchase. Have not tried the trading thing yet.

I know but at least I can say I opened a case for the first time.

Never done that, all the crap just sits in my inventory. Would love to have a sell all option and the specify a percentage of market value like 10% under going selling price. It's just to much pt to sell this crap.

List on the community market for the same price as the rest of them you see on the market.

Does anyone know why sometimes in the casual game modes you can't pick a team, it lets you spectate and when warmup is done it auto picks a team?

This wasn't happened in 8+ months but I did it twice today and once earlier this week.

Knife headshot wallbang.

I didn't take a screenshot with the kill feed unfortunately. My immediate reaction to it is what just happened followed by the guys you killed either hysterically laughing or calling hacker.

Anyone else here experiencing intermittent server issues? I always had it in some way, but now it is 24/7. Mweb is dead in the water, switching ISPs immediately solves any loss, but it does not solve the clay animation that I have to deal with… All week last week I had to deal with this schit, and last night it nudged me into insanity, now I'm bloody screaming like I'm in Mweb's asylum.

No issues here, hopefully it resolves itself quick.

Played three comp games and lost two to a team full of smurfs tonight, but tired now and heading to bed. 5 more comp matches until I rank. Feels like I'll never reach it :(

So I was playing last night for the first time and there was a young punk (18 year old S.African) with his alias as 'WHITES ARE SUPERIOR' and shortly thereafter he changed his name to 'KKKFC'. Does one see this type of thing a lot in the CSGO crowd? Is there any point in reporting someone like that?

First time ever?

I almost never see racist things in game but then again I think ponder might have a different experience.

I don't think reporting will do anything.

See it fairly often...usually in chat or voice. Statistically-speaking, 50% of the people playing are dumb :p

Played about 10 competitive matches over the weekend. Was disgusting. Everyone tried to derank it seems. I'm actually wondering if it's worth playing solo anymore.

I usually go with two or three known guys but it is also a bit unpredictable as sometimes you get people who aren't team players to fill up the team.

But these damn smurfs tho'

I don't mind smurfing. They just encourage me to play beter. Having three squickers in the team that just tries to mess around however ruins the game for me. Had it a few times this weekend.

The smurfs ruin it for me because they play an unranked account whilst being in one of the higher leagues, which severely diminishes the amount of fun I have in a match ;)

I hear you when you say it forces you to play better, but if I (with my ~50 hours of practice) play in a squash league against people with 400+ hours of practice pretending to be on my level, chances are good it won't go so well for me
