2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good.

Today's game is Team Fortress 2. This one's going to be a bit short, due to just not being able to get many screenshots for it. For years it's been an annual tradition of mine to play this game on Christmas Eve. Though I've stopped playing it for a while, it's fun to go and kick back in some matches and mess around, even with the communities unique qualities sometimes. This time i dragged a friend along for this year and we played a few swissmas maps and made our way over to 2fort to mess around.

I spent the entire session messing around with my friend and whoever i could drag into dancing with me. After that i jumped around as soldier and used the equalizer taunt to take out some snipers i snuck behind for fun. Then me and my friend i dragged along got into a feud and spent a good while trying to kill each other after autobalance swapped our teams. After that i played some Demoman and messed around with my friend in the Intelligence room before deciding to get off for the night early.

The bots were what initially caused me to stop playing years ago. As much as i'd like to get back into it now though, i let the game dominate my life whenever i play regularly. Not to the point where it was a problem, but i can't afford to sink that much time into it with my current lifestyle.
