hold on this replace machina right? well that demostrate video you shoot with machina WITHOUT scoping wich is on not possible on machina ftw?

In the video, it's being used in place of the Sydney Sleeper.

This version, however, replaces the Machina.

**Posted by 404: User Not Found* Yes, and those should all be packed up.

Could be packed up, not should be. I could pack these into one file, but chose not to. And nowhere in the rules does it state that I cannot do this.

**Posted by 404: User Not Found* It's not about having to download "dozens of extra files they won't use". Nobody cares about extra files.

I beg to differ, I always get annoyed if I download a skin and have to sift through several sections I don't want or need just to get the one I intended to use. Some of us have download cap limits, we can't all afford to just pour things through our bandwidth willy-nilly.

**Posted by 404: User Not Found* The way you've done this seems like blatant advertising.

Oh, well, I'm so very sorry that it seems that way.

And so what if it was? It isn't intended to be advertising, it's intended to make it easier and faster for people who want this skin for one weapon to get it without un-needed bulk.

But even if I was advertising, so friggen what? I've put a skin up here that people can enjoy, is there a law that says it isn't allowed to be used to gain exposure for a workshop piece?

Yes, I suppose it being in 3 places verses one equates to more exposure, it also equates to more people finding a skin they may want to use. People looking for a Sydney Sleeper or Machina skin tend to look in the Sydney Sleeper or Machina sections, not the packs section.

**Posted by 404: User Not Found* If these go down due to me filing a complaint through GameBanana Support, then obviously the best route would be to modify your first submission (as I requested that the 2nd and 3rd copy be removed, but leave the original alone), and modify the ZIP file to contain 3 folders, one for each replacement, then switch the category to "Packs".

Of course, it's all up to you what you do.

Frankly, I'd love to see all of Hawkshadow's Team-colored submissions uploaded in one big pack. And I don't mean to sound like I'm singling you or Hawkshadow out, but the TF2 section of this site really seems to suffer from this problem, stemming from users uploading 3+ duplicate submissions, each of which replaces a different weapon, but visually is no different from the other submissions (like the Mannkannon, all 3 replace different weapons, but are visually identical)

The mature thing to do would be to politely request it of me through a PM, not throw a tantrum and potentially have the "offending" file totally removed from the site!

If these go down, it tells me that you people no longer want it here, and if that is the case, then you can damn well go without.

If it was really so much of a problem for you that it is not in a pack, you could have just sent me a PM explaining yourself. I would have probably obliged, then.

But no, you had to act like a child and flag my submission, meaning it may get taken down, meaning I would need to go through the tedious work of re-packaging, re-testing and re-uploading this for you ungrateful people. And I see no reason to grant you use of this skin if it offends you to the point of you flagging it!
