I see no issues with the service and actually applaud their entrepreneurial spirit.

If I was ever going to spend money on something like this (which I wouldn't), I would rather give that $8 to an enemy player and have him perform some timely team grief/kills for me.

Professional shitbag for hire:

For $50 i will teamkill you with buggy then teabag your corpse. I will ensure you never get into any vehicles before me or if you do i will do my best to heavily damage them before you enter. Also i offer my services as a cover where i will prone directly in front of you and stare back at you while you try to snipe, in addition to this i will fire randomly into the air revealing our position to everyone.

Lastly i will never drop ammo/health/revive you and will offer discouraging comments about your skill level in public chat on the event of your death which with my services will be often.

Any takers?

This is a scam. I provide all these services for free, every day

I'm actually surprised I haven't seen this in TF2, considering the game already has a whole market/economy aspect that's become a game in itself (to some).

And to think I try to do this for free for anyone in my squad. .

this. its why I love playing with the core ATOT'ers that I do.

we all know soflam is kinda boring, and not good for SPM, but how many of us have dont it so others can rape in the helo/jet/tanks?

swap classes based on what other are running to complement, or squat down with the MAV on rush to help us defend
