IT HAS BEGUN
Remember when CS used to be good?
I'm a jacked Taiwanese boy and I don't give a fuck
>>724047626WHERE'S THE LIVELEAKS?????
So why was the thread stickied yesterday again? Did a janny sudoku himself or wut.
>>724047626jesus people really are overreacting over this shit. its not like they put in all they life savings. and no, $10k is not life savings. you can save up that in less than a year of work on minimum wage
>>724047824>$10k is not life savings. you can save up that in less than a year of work on minimum wageif you life in pampered privilege, maybe.
>>724047824>$10k is not life savings. you can save up that in less than a yearfirsty detected
>>724047772Someone found it really funny
>>724047626thirdies BTFO>>724047772Because he wanted to reply to himself with a joke he stole from another thread.
>>724048163>stroking own dick while stealing other's worknot surprising
>>724047772There was a sticky over this? Link?
>>724047680I loved source
>>724048163Huh? I assume the Carlos joke?Did he subsequently steal that from Aquajeet?
>>724047824I think these people were basically like the wall street guys killing themselves.It's not just the money. It's that this is their lifestyle. It's part of their identity. They can't live without this supposed "status" anymore.
>>724047626No wonder NA died in CS.CS used to be a very NA game but after skins became profitable the whole NA scene and popularity of the game died.Total third worlder death
I've sold a few skins and stuff in CSGO/CS2 but what I dont get is why do people have like thousands of dollars of inventory? The money is stuck on steam so unless you are buying shit tons of games why is it useful?
Something something an hero shooter or whatever
>>724048319>CS used to be a very NA gameIn what fucking world?CS has always been an EU game
>>724048325you buy tf2 keys and sell them at a loss for real money off platform
KWAB
I guess you could say CS is…an hero shooter now!
>>724048325You sell them on third party sites where they use cash instead of steam bucks.
>>724047626What did gabe actually do?
>>724048325You can sell the skins on 3rd part sites for real money or crypto.
>>724048347It was still very popular in NA.Now its non-existent.
>>724047626Good
>>724047626irl version of concord players killing themselves lol
>>724047824Pretty much.>t. Less than 35k€ a year wage slave
>>724048270nigger are you actually taking a schizo seriously
>>724048928Kill yourself, janny
>>724047680
>>724047626
>>724047626>againpost black eggs
how do you think gaben feels with the fact that he caused people to kill themselves?how would you feel in his place? would you feel responsible? remorseful? would it keep you up at night?it's nice being me and having a clean conscience, the worst thing I ever did was hit my classmates on the head when I was around 10
>>724049281He probably doesn't care. I wouldn't.
Old fag here: Back when I was playing cs 1.6, I'm pretty sure you could download/upload your own skins for your guns/characters, etc. So why are ppl paying for skins now?
>>724049343you wouldn't care that if hell exists you're most likely going there for all eternity, especially since you're 62 so you know the time's coming
>>724047626is @incelnudist a trustworthy news source?
>>724049589it was reposted by chad_nation. 100% confirmed
Legit never played/paid attention to CSGO.How exactly was there a "multi-million" dollarydoo CSGO knife skin industry?Do the knife have different stats and it's for competitive shit?Legit don't fucking understand this at all.
>>724047626lollmaoget fucked, chinkhope your entire country collapses as a result
>>724049709No one does
if its worth so much why werent they selling it to begin with

>>724049089>laughing and clown emotes.Dangerously based
>>724048874Do you know how expensive apartments are? Of course it's easy to save up 10k every year if you're still living with your parents and they pay for basically everything for you
>>724049970man makes plans and God laughs
>>724049505>christfaglollmaoi'll just say "sorry" and then jesus will forgive me my sins and let me continue fuck your mom in heaven right next to you
>>724049495Speculative market
>>724049667>pajeet nation
>>724049667>Baited by fake newsAs expected from a bot account. But then again, so does /v/.
>>724048319CS was always an EU/LatAm game. The scene in NA was really small compared to the millions of Brazilians and Russians playing from internet cafés.
>>724047626Explain why I should care. Let all of them die.
>>724048319>CS used to be a very NALol
>>724050224kek that's exactly how Their golem religion works
These traders really need to learn to set a goal. Sell at a specific point and enjoy the money earned. Holding perpetually just shows a severe lack of direction in life.
>>724050097I have a mortgage but ok
>>724051328Sheer hubris and complacency because they thought Valve would do nothing lmao
>>724047626looks like the market wasn't the only thing that crashed that day
>>724050306>pajeethe's actually a tanky draft dodging
>>724050097i live in a commie block provided by my employer. i pay 560/month
>>724048325/v/ is a normalfag board, lmao.
>>724047626>zero videos>zero pictures>just lots of yapping and whiningfaggot gambling addicts and faggot casinos who enable gambling addicts are scum of the earth
>>724047626I still don't understand why valve did this? Can someone explain this to me like i'm a 5 year old chimp?What was the rationale behind doing this?What was gained?Why did they do it now?Did they think about the repercussions?A few years ago while i was still playing WoW, a guildmate told me that a friend of his bought himself a new car with the money from trading CS knives. I thought he was bullshitting me so i ignored it.
>>724048507>Now its non-existent.that's because NA can't compete with EU, not because of skins lol
>>724052689so dumb faggots get dabbed onnormal players are having a good time
>>724052689>I still don't understand why valve did this? Can someone explain this to me like i'm a 5 year old chimp?more money>What was the rationale behind doing this?money>What was gained?money>Did they think about the repercussions????
>>724047626Accelerate.
>>724052689maybe they realized that the headaches around having an economy based around digital combat knives worth literal tens of thousands of dollars was retarded and not worth it and it would be more fun for the players if more people could run around with cool knives in their shooting videogame
>>724052689The real answer is probably someone at Valve was aimless and bored or trying to look busy to justify his salary and presented the idea on a whim to shake things up for the sake of it (he looks like this btw)
>>724052896>>724052937>it's the money, stupidI forgot we're talking about a corporation there, haha silly me. I guess valve got tired of randos making bank with their game then. I wonder what will happen to CS now that valve blew up the market. Who the fuck is gonna invest money into this ponzi shit now? Honestly this is some eve-online type level of fuckery, except people are killing themselves irl over it instead of ingame.
>>724047626plenty more where that came from
>>724053115They popped a fucking unsustainable bubble propped up by greedy kikes.Notice how barely anyone is bitching about this besides the traders.
I wonder how many Venezuelans would kill themselves if Jagex actually ended RMT on Runescape.
>>724047626Not a lawfag, but I'm interested.Does Valve have any legal responsibility for suicides in this instance? I'd imagine they knew what would happencto value and there's no way they don't know about people making money on this shit.
>>724047824>$10k is not life savings. you can save up that in less than a year of work on minimum wageIf you don't have to pay rent, a mortgage, or have any bills whatsoever. What in the fuck are you talking about? I make above minimum wage but I get raped from bills, groceries, and gas. I hardly even buy shit I don't need
>>724048237>>723977692
>>724053247Counter Strike is not the stock market
>>724052689I think it will unironically propel case openings, since you're now not only looking for le gold, but also for red items. There will be a scarcity of reds to turn into gold and people will start doing even more crate openings. Plus people panic selling their knives is better for Valve than people just hoarding those, since they actually get money cut from sales.tldr VALVE GOT MORE MONEY
>>724047680Yes I bought it on release. I'm old as fuck.
>>724048398
>>724049991>to stop people flooding the boardThis board is flooded with the most inane shitposting on the net on a daily basis (the janitors allow it and encourage it), so that can't be it.Try to be less retarded and come up with a better answer.
>>724049053de_snipe_it5 was better
>>724052689High valuations mean people are selling items outside the marketplace to Valve doesn't get a cut. If you equalise the value of items so that a lot of the cheaper items are now little more expensive, the extremely expensive items are cheaper you bring back boatloads of money into the valve controlled and taxes trading environment
>>724047772it was a literal containment thread
>>724047626>mfw bought the deck and still got over 250yurobucks on steam from selling crates during pre-CS2 craze
>>724053247What crime would Valve commit in this case? Murder/Homicide through inducement? It can't be said that Valve induced the victim to jump.
>>724053540This it brings back people to the steam market.It fucks over high value traders who do nothing but treat the game as some retirement fund.It kicks the market in the nuts and brings it back lose to its real value.And it makes casuals who want a cheaper knife happy.Literally win win win. The only people seething are the useless wastes of air that pumped this artificial market to begin with.
>>724053762It also makes people pay valve more directly and they are far more trust worthy than knife sellers
>>724053540>>724053762>The only people seething are the useless wastes of air that pumped this artificial market to begin withSo these CSknife lords were some sort of scalpers, like they do with new console releases?
>>724053839True crate openings are going to skyrocket because reds have value now.
>>724053883Worst.The chinks literally hoarded skins and articially pumped their prices.You know why the economy reached a market cap of 6 billion? It's all fucking market manipulation.This isn't just scalping. It's actual bogdanoff shit.
>>724047824>$10k is not life savings. you can save up that in less than a year of work on minimum wage
>>724049281some people are too retarded to live

Based Valve. I'm buying another Steam Deck just for this occasion. PC Master Race!!!
>>724054097It's true, I've never had a job and I have 20k saved from my government gibs
>>724047772Chinks and russonybros spamming the news nonstop.
>>724050306>Has beard to lessen the impactThe poo should've been forced to shave.
>>724047824Will you acknowledge you're privileged?
>invest all of your life into a market that is entirely at the whims of a single man Why are thirdies so retarded?
>>724047824>just don't do anything with your money ever lolFaggot.
>>724055393Does he know?
Bros my hecking cases... Its over...
just because 3 kids off themselves in a uni around the same time doesnt mean its related to this csgo fiasco ya fools
I have never played anything after Counter-Strike 1.6 and I am pretty fucking clueless, so asking like a retard:Is this normal market pricing, prices plummeting, or high pricing for the lulz of it? Because holy shit, it looks dumber than pokemon cards.
>does nothing>loses
are people actually buying this shit? Like seriously these are just fucking skins. You can't even touch itSorry I'm old and stopped playing cs while it was v1.3
>>724047772Niggerjeet Trannyjanny wanted an ebin screencap for xer stolen joke
>>724047824A Russian makes $500 per month, to make 10k he needs to save 20 months without spending ANY money

>>724049589>NOOOOOOO CHINA CAN NEVER MAKE MISTAKES OR SUFFER LOSS OF FACEURU, EVERSo tired of you wumao freaks metamorphosing yourselves into every thread about your shithole. Do like your fellow insects and defenestrate yourself.
>>724047824We're talking about third worlders here. They make a fraction of what we do in the west. That's the whole reason why western companies outsource to sweatshops and the jeet tech sector, so they don't have to pay them human wages for their work.
Gaben will go to hell for this, he caused all of this, he ruined the lives of many innocent men with a single update.
>>724049589>he believes there's any trustworthy news source
>>724047680>cs>ever goodno . any multiplayer game with permadead is shit
so you can elt CS afking on the background to get skins to get money?
>>72404782410k can go a long way if you live in the third world
Legit question, how do you extract value from Steam cash?
>>724047824>10k is not life savingsyou can live like a king in some countries with that moneyin others you can't even afford rentfucking retard>you can save 10k in minimum wage in a yearyes if you live with your parents and dont live at all
>>724057387sell your shit on shady sites while risking your account getting banned

>>724057819>test with 5000€>...
Russian 2ch thread about cs is empty. People disappeared
>>724057937apparently the big trading sites are legit
>>724057387you could buy steam decks and sell them IRL
>>724057967They got droned
>>724056339>are people actually buying this shitnot really, imagine doing an hero becasue you 'lost' money that wasn't even real
>>724055513you dont need an expensive car. you dont need to pay for video games or tv subscriptions, drugs, alcohol or gambling. you just dont
>NFT but 3DDeserved it for being stupid with money. These fuckers doesn't want to trade in the jewish system like everyone else, but decided to participate in this sham called steam market, because they wanted to be the first to get rich off of of this.
