I disagree... don't turn TF2 into a game of dress-up... the majority of players shouldn't have a hat... otherwise they're not special. I don't have a hat... Do I want one? Depends on what it is... Do I need one? No.
You sir are the kind of person that shouldn't be allowed to own any hats at all.
You don't want hats because you like them, you don't even want them because you think they're cool. You want them for bragging rights, regardless of other issues, and as such you don't deserve them. They could be a pile of shit, but they are rare! It's all about ego-stroking.
Tell you what, what about Valve gives you something like a 9001 year VAC ban mh? You could brag about that, I mean, how many people can claim they were banned "OVER NINE THOUSAND!!!!" years? On the upside this wouldn't be bothering people who want to genuinely enjoy the game.
PS: Terr, go look at ctf_System. Ravidge beat you to it.
