| − | * The whole freaking point of having a Wiki hat is to attract more contributors, and that's what it's doing. Not everyone who has signed up recently are morons, we actually have a lot more good editors now. In the future they are the ones who will get the hat, not people who just post their Steam URL and be done with it, nor others who are just curious about how you even get the hat in the first place; seriously, look at the [[Wiki Cap]] article. You wouldn't be able to know how to obtain one just by looking at it. You could only know by reading this entire talk page. Taking a stance against new editors who are "just here for the hat" does not increase your chances of getting a hat yourself. The hat is only going to those who have earned it.

| |
| − |
| |
| − | :I've got something say about this whole mess.<br>Look, fact of the matter is (to me anyway) that if you came here for a stupid hat, you're here for the wrong reasons. Some of us contribute a lot, some of us only a little, but we all contribute something and we don't do it for a damn hat. I don't want a hat. I want to keep the wiki up to date with correct information. Why? Because I want it to be that way. I use this wiki along with everyone else.<br>Unlike other wikis I've been members of, though, I've rarely had to fix any pages. Rarely do I have to correct information or revert an edit. And this is concerning. It seems people are coming in here just editing pages now putting in bad information and then correcting it themselves or letting other people correct it to seem like wiki contributors to get this freaking cap?<br>I took a unanimous vote, and decided those people can [[Jarate]] right off. Smashman, this hat I think has ruined the wiki for those users who are here to keep the wiki up to date and correct. It's become a pain in the ass for the rest of us. I'd like to see the hat renamed to "Community Contributor Cap" and given to those who help out the community, being forum administrators and the heads of this wiki and everyone else out there who has done a damn good job in helping out the community like Diamao and Royzo and even Drunkenf00l for TF2items.com<br>In conclusion, f-bomb this hat.<br>--[[User:Skunk|Skunk]] 05:32, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
