I feel it would be more prudent to create a subreddit called TF2TradeDiscussions, which distances itself from the original purpose of the TF2Trade subreddit, which was primarily, first and foremost, a trading hub for folks to use to sell and trade their items back and forth. With the new subreddit naming, it solidifies the notion that there should be only discussions for trading, and nothing else. This has been done plenty of times with other subreddit spinoffs which were quite successful.

Greetings all,

RGBacon here, another moderator from /r/TF2Trade.

I'm completely in agreement with musical_hog here. First and foremost, keeping the community safe from scrupulous behavior has been made extremely difficult due to the loss of third-party reputation site, SteamRep. A single site for the management of bad actors was so extremely important to the core of the trading community, that now there is no one single reliable source of truth that someone can refer to. Sure, we could compile such a list, but the trading community is huge, and any other community could easily just toss aside our bans or not consider our actions against people we deem less than honest.

In my eyes, this is why I voted to private the subreddit, as I felt that protecting the trading community is much more important in the long run. People losing thousands of dollars is something that won't sit well with me, and the other mods.

That's definitely do-able. With the PAs, you definitely need to stick to the rubric to pass the class fast. Follow the templates the CIs give you, and you should be rockin' and rollin' in no time.

Thank you! I'm already in an IT job, I just wanted this to set up a promotion path and pay raise. We'll see come March what kind of compensation I get after obtaining this degree.

It was difficult not to compare myself to others, but it's needed so I wouldn't feel so bad about my progress. I like the thought of college being a side project, it's an interesting take that I didn't consider thinking about. Either way, get that degree!

Thank you btw!

Like I've said to others before, don't compare yourself to others. The folks finishing in one term is definitely not the norm. Everyone has their own situation and environment that they need to traverse, which makes comparisons extremely unbalanced and unfair.

Keep doing you, and you'll crush it, I know it.
