Everyday, I would see some kind of begging threads from a few cent skins to knives. Yes, KNIVES.

Everyday, I would get people asking me for free skins.

Everyday, I would see those self proclaimed Youtubers asking for keys and cases to unlock.

Everyday, I would see people posting fake giveaways in order to get fake +rep on their profile so they could scam people.

I've not seen a community as toxic as this. If I could build up my inventory from nothing to something, so can everyone else. It seems the CS:GO community is filled with lazy, weed smoking, self-entitled spoilt brats with a naive belief that the world owes them a living.

You should read your post again, you are talking about csgo community, "I've not seen a community as toxic as this.

I don't know what to say about "angsty" (i had to google it) and insecure, how am i insecure? You want circlejerk? you want support/likes? then go to reddit, because all i see is seeking for attention, and the best example is your post below, "hardcore trading masterpieces..." haha, good to know you were so HARDCORE trader

Because your choice of words and arguments is very much like what beggars and scammers say when you turn them down. "If you don't want to give things away, you shouldn't show them in public", "your trade offers suck, you ****", "you need skins, cause you have no skill" , "if you don't give me skins for free it means you're just playing for skins and not the competition", etc.
I'm not arguing that you are a scammer or beggar. I'm just pointing out you write the way they do, the way you say things is essential to how they are received. If you told him there are not so many begging kids, and that accepting friend requests without checking is not the best way to trade, and if you didn't try to offend him in the last sentence, you'd send a different message.

so if i tell him to hide his inventory, to stop using csgolounge, because it obviously pisses him off since he made this hread, it makes me a scammer, ok,,, by the way, i have no idea where are these quotes from, but it is not what i said, at all,,, yep, and the last sentence about rank, if he wasn't paying attention to skins, he would never get beggar messages, he would never care about giveaways/fake giveaways, he would never make this thread and maybe he would have better time playing csgo, and maybe he would be better player after all

CS:GO is cancer and so is most of it's playerbase, and the reason for that is because it's so popular and populated.

People in general are just cancerous, and the more there is of them, the worse it is, and CSGO is one of the most played PC games, and always the top 3rd or 2nd game on steam being played.

People spend literally hundreds of dollars ON SKINS. DIFFERENT COLORS FOR GUNS THAT NO ONE WILL CARE ABOUT OR SEE IN-GAME OTHER THAN YOU!

You move slightly faster with the knife so people will see it anyways, it's not like you have to show it for it to be seen.

I'm not the one who has said you use knife once every 100 matches. All I've said is that people buy skins just to brag about it. You buy knife, you go run everywhere with it, inspecting it.

If they took the smurfs/solo-que vs. pre-made and matches played into consideration rank would mean more, I went from nova3 to mg2 back to silver4/5? and back to mge on my main which has about 500 matches played of which most are solo-que about 400. On another account I have 10 premade + ~10 solo-que matches and that one is on LE.

MM system where 5 pre-made are not set up against 5 solo-que and DMG with 10 matches are not matched against DMG with 700 matches, it would maybe be more balanced :P

I'm pretty sure that the majority of CS:GO beggars are mostly only begging for expensive items, really. They couldn't care less if it was an expensive CS:GO skin or a TF2 hat, as long as they get something out of it. CS:GO skins simply tend to be easy to cash in, especially knives.

I think anybody who spends money on a functionally useless thing like a weapon skin that does nothing but changes aesthetics, is obsessed to a degree. TF2 items, CS:GO items, doesn't matter.
To a degree the same goes for Steam cards/emotes/backgrounds. Although there you can have a very small loophole saying Steam levels add more friend slots and buying cards/emotes/backgrounds supports the game publisher at least a little.
