Because VAC Banned people also get the halo, even though they are the REAL cheaters.

Some people really need to grow up and get over this "they took away my toy" thing...

I'd play TF2 more often if my wireless wasn't so rubbish.

But hey! I'm getting a special plug that sends internets over power lines.

So yeah. Everyone who agrees with Q_Q doesn't play TF2 or has gotten a halo.

So all their arguments are invalid.

No, they aren't. People have every right to be angry over something completely unexpected by a company that spoils them.

If your mom throughout your entire life has spoiled the frak out of you and has let you have whatever you want. Let's say you write answers on your arm before school starts so you can cheat on a test, and your mom knows it. But she didn't care because she just cared about you passing. But one day, she sees you writing on your arm for yet another test and grounds you. She then tells the school you cheated on the past several tests and they resign you F's for each one.

Would you not be pissed? She didn't even suggest to you that you'd stop, or warn you that you would be punished if you were seen doing it again.

Like I said, you guys can go ahead and shut up now. You didn't idle like I did, or you just don't play TF2 at all. You don't know how it feels like to be backstabbed by a company you trusted so much.

I'll admit that halos are gay, not for the fact non-idlers have them, they just simply are. If I got one, I wouldn't even use it. It's just the simple fact that Valve did all that, and now halos are just as common as people with no hats are. And I don't hate Valve or anything, I just don't think they made a wise decision. What they did pretty much split the community into even smaller pieces.

And you know, it was the halo owners who started the banning shit first. People would ask a new player joining, "Hey, why don't you have a halo?" And the guy would reply, "I didn't get one." They'd call him an idling/cheating faggot and ban him. This now applies the other way around but it was the non-idlers who started it.

If idling to get a hat counts - then yes. My play time can't be compared to yours.
