Title: Tf2 Item Giveaways
Post by: Yahtzee on September 03, 2012, 02:39:15 PM
Would any of you be willing to donate your unused and sad items to finnie and I so we can donate them to tf2 players? We need more items if we want to keep up the Item Giveaways on Saxton Hale and Idle/Trade going strong.

Do you want me to do a special give away where I give away a strange?

Leomire, the intent is to populate servers.  Please have the Head Admin do it, as it will tie into the Community/Server doing the giveaway, instead of a person in the server.

For example, I did this to start population in the Saxton server.  I gave out nearly 600 items. Most were donated by players who enjoyed our server, and wanted the high population to continue. I gave out hats, stranges, vintage, scrap, refined, and rare items.  I even gave out boxes, as there are those who want them.

I would randomly pick people on the server, and reward them for playing (after checking to make sure they were not troublemakers.) I would give the item, then announce on the server I gave the item, and please put us on your favorite server list.   Worked very well.
To the point I had to turn off my steam friends, as everyone would friend me, then see I was on the server, and join, in an attempt to get more free stuff. (I even resorted to name changes.)

So, please let the Head Admin, or CL do it, so it benefits the community. Thanks.

I guess, I could transfer some to a second acc.
But I don't know if I can give, gifted weapons on a non-premium account.

Honestly,
   I have tons of room, I am premium and I don't even trade aside from those damn crates I wanted to get rid of.

You can store that crap in my garage for awhile so long as it doesn't stink. -_-

Thanks,

Non-premium accounts can recieve, but not send.  So that wouldn't work.

This is actually relevant now Black...since we are bringing back the VSH server if Finnie and Yah started doing the item giveaways it would repop the server fairly quickly.

Isn't that how we did it the first time?
