    So Valve has apparently indicated that we'd be able to trade unlocked (found) weapons in the future. I propose that someone (maybe a moderator or in a pinch, I'll do it) start a thread, where each user will have a single, main post containing 'wanted' and 'for sale' items, kind of like an online ad for everyone here. Each post would need to be edited by the user as their needs were met and their inventory changed, but I think that sort of structure would make it convenient for when this starts. For example:

    Wanted: Bonk Atomic Punch

    For trade: KGB, Kritzkreig(2)

    More like-


    Wanted: Cloak and Dagger, Huntsman, Jarate.

    For Trade: Bonk Atomic Punch, Bonk Atomic Punch, Bonk Atomic Punch, Bonk Atomic Punch, Bonk Atomic Punch, Flair Gun, Sandvich.

    Is the post screwy?

    Fixed, but that's basically it. :LOL: Maybe there are four people that need bonk?

    Also, is there a way in Steam without actually loading TF2 to see what weapons you've found?

    WELL IT WASN'T VERY FUNNY.


    ...


    Got a third Natascha and BONK, Jesus Christ.

    But I did finally get Huntsman, something new at last. I think I prefer it to Sniper Rifle, even though I'm not even sure how they're different.

    oops, can't edit my original post for new weapons. I take it this'll be the official trading post? I got some more stuff. When they open up the floor to trades, I may need a revised post with my latest inventory.

    Mods, is the (in)ability to edit my original post because it's the first post, because x amount of time has passed, because of forum-specific settings (or something far more sinister)?

    With the C&D, anywhere is a dispenser, so you don't have to rely on enemy Engineers too much. It's amazing the places you can stand out in the open for minutes at a time.

    Extra? You are telling me you got two of both heavy and medic. If that is the case, then something certainly doesn't smell right!

    I think that there is a imbalance in the distribution of the unlocks. most everyone already has all the medic, pyro, heavy, and scout unlocks so those are almost worthless for trading... yet they seem to be the most common.
