Now I really feel sorry for that guy who bought premium for his 160 accounts

But this will fix up the economy making everything worth more, so if you already have tons of loot from idling, you're in luck.

If you don't want to read the whole thing :

  1. You won't be able to idle anymore.

  2. You won't get banned for it either.

However I'm pretty sure they'll tweak the dropping system, maybe the more active you are (doing points, kills, et cetera?) more items you get? That would be pretty easily exploited, but Valve will come up with something better, I'm sure.

they will never do this. ever. they dont want to let the... how do i say this without offending people... those gamers who fucking suck... not get stuff while all the people who can play, get all the drops.

this was the entire reason behind why valve dumped the old system (achievement levels got you weapons) and replaced it with the 'idle to get drops' system.

basically valve is pro socialism. which is kinda weird given that theyre very capitalist. mixed signals, gabe... mixed signals :D

Valve is not part of the government, there is no Socialism involved.

No one is making you trade hats... You can still play the damn game pretty much exactly as before. Don't even have to bother about getting items, the default ones do the job well enough, and the achievement ones which you will get over time whether you want it or not are even better.

If you wanna bitch, go play the Xbox version that hasn't gotten any of the updates. Deal with the people who'd rather actively bully one person than actually capture the point.

Considering I only have three accounts(and I only really idle on one at a time because I can't be bothered to use Sandboxie or anything)and I'm never really off my PC at those times, if I use something like "alias fuckyouvalveidowhatiwant "+forward; +right; +moveleft; +attack"" this doesn't affect me in the least.
