Talk:Gift Wrap

Tradable?

The main page says "purchase only" but also that it's tradable? Is that an error, or is it actually tradeable?

• Correct. I've purchased one myself, traded it to another account, then wrapped up an item and delivered it back to my own account. The original item you get from the store can be traded. The packaged gift (if I remember) cannot be traded; it must be activated (like a Paint or Name Tag) to deliver it to someone.RukiTanuki 16:10, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

Gifting process

Right now, the wiki reads "After the gift is opened, the gifted item will have a descriptive 'tag' telling you who sent the gift and when you received it." I think this can be made more useful.

I propose that we expand it that so it'll be more informative. I was thinking, "After buying the gift wrap from the Mann Co store, you can use it with any item from your backpack, including untradeables. This will create a (gift? I have no idea what it looks like). You then select a player to send the gift to. The gifted player can select the gift and click on "use with" to receive his gift. After the gift is opened, the gifted item will have a descriptive 'tag' telling you who sent the gift and when you received it. In addition, any untradeable items will become tradeable when gifted."

I would have added the above, but I don't have first hand experience with it. All the above information were gained from the forums and in-game chats.

Gift Wrap-able or Gift-Wrappable?

Both are used on this page, which one would be grammatically correct? I am inclined to think gift wrappable is correct, but I'm not sure. Time wave 05:45, 8 November 2010 (UTC)

I'm going to put my ridiculous degree to use and say that gift-wrappable (arguably without the hyphen) is probably the most correct option.::Scurve :: 05:47, 8 November 2010 (UTC)

I'd say that it would be Gift-Wrappable because Gift Wrap-able looks a bit more like slang, or a way that children would spell it.::Attaint 00:44, 26 November 2010 (UTC)

New Quote Suggestion

While I agree that the current quote from the Scout quite readily fits the Gift Wrap, I did get a good chuckle out of this line from the Soldier: *"I'm gonna mail my boot to the Kaiser with your ass around it!" Wasn't sure if I should make this a serious suggestion or not, just thought I'd throw it out to see if others agree. --Fragment of Nothing 18:56, 11 November 2010 (UTC)

Wiki Cap

Err the Wiki Cap isn't mentioned at all. It's true that the Community Weapons are being spoken of, but hats aren't weapons. Soo should it be renamed to Community Items instead of Weapons or add the Wiki Cap near the other non gift-able items? Vulturas 11:45, 19 November 2010 (UTC)

Gift-Wrap is Gift-Wrappable?

YO DAWG, WE HEARD YOU LIKE GIFTS, SO WE PUT A GIFT IN YO GIFT SO YOU CAN GIFT WHILE YOU GIFT. Seriously, has anyone done that? :P McComBat 23:21, 25 November 2010 (UTC)

Sir, please talk like that on the steam forums. there it is acceptable. On topic, most likely seeing how it is "giftable". -= M-NINJA =- 21:33, 27 November 2010 (UTC)

Mann Co. Cap

The page for the Mann Co. Cap states that it is not giftable, but it isn't included on the list here. Is this a mistake? --Fragment of Nothing 20:29, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
