People do it on r/tf2 all the time, except they just indirectly (or directly) say "please give me free stuff" instead of not saying it at all. Not saying this guy's doing any of that shit but it's probably what a good chunk of them in general are aiming for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
