Finding less regular people playing on Phantom?

What do you guys think?

Yeah theres a few that have left. The reasons listed below.

 

Obvious trading game now..the competitive side has hackers running free and valve doesn't give a shit..because hats!..all people care about is how their sparkly "digital item" looks, rather on focus on the actual gaming side.

I Sure hope a matchmaking system comes into play soon to give life to this dying community. 

Edit..

The biggest turn off for me was the end of the line update..i was so hyped for that..i'm sure everyone was.. what did we get?

Flaming duck unusuals, also a $5 rubber duck event.
*obvious cash in anyone?"

No new map for months because "too advanced". A community made map was refused. Despite unpaid efforts from the community creators for a year.
And yet we get more hats? *cash in?"

A new gamemode with grappling hooks and 9 modifiers is okay though,
Entirely broken, shouldn't even exist. but it's okay, because valve.

Fundamental changes to classes that have existed in a thriving game for 7 years, because apparently they were the reason this game went downhill. *cough* hats.. *cough* 

Also, gimmick weapons that seek to support the handicapped players. Danger Shield still in. Mini-sentry is still broken. I'm sure they will fix it! after another 600 hats come out! 

I used to play for the community but ive tried to press on..found some rather tight ones..but overall the tf2 community right now is toxic. It seems the good old players have moved on, i don't blame them. If your new to the game i suggest sticking to valve servers because a community server will eat you alive. They hold no respect towards newer players and will spam binds on you if they kill you..eg "get rekt noob" 

I used to love this game, but i came to my senses. The games dying and so are you..run while you still can. Valve you still have a chance at fixing this we don't need anymore hats we need more maps and gameplay! 

Valve, Don't treat this game like your bank account. 
We the players deserve much better then this.

Have a nice day.

+ the main reason why I have become "less active" is due to studying for the HSC this year. There are multiple people the same age as me who play this game, who use their mics often therefore leaving a sense of loneliness when no one is using a microphone.

same thing for me, but instead of the hsc, i won't be on for weeks now, considering i got to study for the exams. I'm not sure if all schools do half yearly's+yearly exams , but for our school, year 7-11 do multiple exams, but in year 10, it starts getting alot more complicated, and there is alot of pressure, but then when you go into the hsc stages, like despair is atm, it is very important to focus on his career, not on tf2. this is probably the same with others
