Talk:Promotional items

Will add this later in the main section following irc discussion. Promotional items (and event items) are not explicitly marked as uncraftable, however, unlike regular hats they do not yeild headgear when combined. '''''UltimateTerabyte''''' 11:34, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

Should the whole Vintage Lugermorph business be added in the notes of the Sam & Max Lugermorph? If so, here's a sentence that could be added: "These Lugermorphs became Vintage when the Poker Night at the Inventory items were added to the game in the November 19, 2010 Patch" Nizar 07:57, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

It's already mentioned on the lugermorph article. Moussekateer 08:01, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

Limited Items

Should they also end up here? Or is this strictly for the promotional items. Examples being the Cheater's Lament and golden wrench. For that matter, is the golden wrench technically limited or promotional, or both? -= M-NINJA =- 03:15, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

Promotional means just that. Not limited. That's something to keep in mind, though. -- En Ex _(talk) 03:18, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

Limited in the sense you mean, I mean. -- En Ex _(talk) 03:21, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

New Column?

Now that there are so many promotional items with varying states of obtainability, should we consider adding another column to each table row which indicates whether or not a particular item is still obtainable? Example values would be "No", "Craft (Non-Genuine only)", "Purchase (Non-Genuine only)", "Achievement", etc. Noibn 14:53, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

Japan Charity Items

I've already tried to discuss this on the talk:Magnanimous Monarch page, but no-one's really given me any feedback. I think it takes some of the meaning out of the Japan Charity Bundle items being charitable if they are listed as being "promotional" - this associates them with marketing and advertising, which isn't the point of them at all. I suggest making a new section for Charity items, seeing as there are enough of them to merit a new section. Does anyone else support this? If not, then at the very least the description on the Promotional items page should be altered to accommodate charity items as well. Cooper Kid 18:37, 31 March 2011 (UTC)

maybe if there was ever another "charity item" it'd warrant it HyenaDip 22:23, 2 April 2011 (UTC)

There are 5 of them - I think that's enough to warrant a new page. Cooper Kid 11:31, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

I support a second page as well, even if we never get any additional charity items. It just seems like bad form to mix and mingle "charity" with "promotion". Noibn 14:56, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

Steam Game Gifts

I found something very interesting a short while ago. I had purchased a 4 Pack of Monday Night Combat back during the promotional period. One of the guys in on the split bailed so I was stuck with an extra copy. I found that when I gifted it to another player through Steam, the user still got the promotional items, even though the promotion had long since ended! Nam-Ereh-Won 20:22, 3 July 2011 (PDT)

Requested move

Move article to Promotional item? I think singular is better than plural for an article title, would look neater. SilverHammer 00:43, 8 July 2011 (PDT)

 Oppose Considering there are multiple Promotional items on the page, and in-game, I think the page name should remain plural. MogDog66 04:10, 18 July 2011 (PDT)

•  Oppose since there are more than one promotional item the name should be promotional items. Basic English. Thespy 20:38, 20 July 2011 (PDT)

 Oppose There are many promotional items, not just one. Isakcool 10:42, 22 July 2011 (PDT)
