    Hahaha this takes me back. My first purchases in 2011 were a few TF2 weapons. I got my account a short time after it went F2P.

        lol yes. I did it a few times before I realized that it’s not a good way to get weapons. Only lost a few bucks.

        Edit: Should clarify, my parents bought them.

        It is now. It wasn’t at first.

        It was part of the Valve Orange Box and that was a big deal at the time. There was also a huge deal of whining from people who paid for it when Valve announced they were changing it to a free to play model.
