TF2 Emporium - 15-year-old cabal of terminally online game content creators contributing to the rot of a near 20-year-old game they could care less for.

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
i think it still does work since the competence of the tf2 devs (the potted plant and eric smith) is something to behold

I just logged into my crappy, old discord account to wade through workshop central and...

Lo and behold! TF2Emp tards trying to cope with the news

https://steamcommunity.com/id/Chickenman456 (His account is private right now) [Jorge Salazar] Usually known as Chickenman according to the TF2Emporium posts showcasing items attributed to him.
https://steamcommunity.com/id/tedbenekee/ Could also be his account (has a community made cosmetic on it). I found it by typing the above Steam account's ID into backpack.tf.
https://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/User:Chickenman456 His TF2Wiki profile (Check out: "This user tends to falls to pieces") LOL!!

Edit 1. He made the Carry-van cosmetic added in SF2023 (It is a Halloween restricted cosmetic too)

i'm positive this guy has a LOT of skeletons on his closet since he's the biggest politisperg in this discord but god forbid his opsec is actually decent compared to several other trannies
I just found this cow a few minutes ago but I have added all my findings in my post. I'm sure with more time, we'd uncover more about him. But I unfortunately can't find any items he's had added into the game. See my other post about an item of his in the game.

Edit: I forgot to add this in:
It seems like a good lead so far...

at the moment i cannot find his contributions, but i do remember that he aided with that shit, but i think(????) i actually found something on his ass? i need someone more competent to confirm if i'm not painting a target to the wrong person

I don't think https://steamcommunity.com/id/tedbenekee/ is Chickenman. And Chickenman didn't create the Carry-Van. He's not listed as one of the contributors on the TF2 Wiki, and I've not documented him as such on the big spreadsheet I'm working on.

I tried searching the TF2 Wiki for instances of his Steam ID popping up. Did a search for "76561198220224500" and for uses of "{{Steamid|76561198220224500}}" and both turned up 0 results. Far as I can tell, Chickenman has not had any items get into the game. He might just have the self-made role because he sucked someone's dick or something.

If he did make a self made, believe me, he would have a fucking userbox on his tf2 wiki user page declaring such. But he doesn't.

i think it's more for a technicality, since he's currently listed as a mapper in the wiki, what's his creation you ask?

also i'm thinking that i've hit the mark with these links, since the youtube channel links to the instagram, the personal website links to that instagram, the chicken motif is shared with the youtube account which is also shared with the reddit account, will get archives up asap

edit: i think an aberration happened here, he DID make a cosmetic, but the account listed is different, but the turbine center map has his name listed w/o the steam link, why does this retard have two steam accounts?

Yeah that makes sense. I can see them giving the role to him because he had a map get accepted. Weird that they don't even link to his Steam profile in the info box on that article like they do for 2 of the 4 people. And they didn't write his real name in so maybe he had to request Valve to not publish his actual name?

It also explains why searching for his id64 string gave no results; because they don't link to his profile.

i might have a bit of a problem archiving his reddit since it's got a gargantuan history, but the face is very real since this is a zoomer that is into nigger rappers (archive), and his youtube isn't any better since preserve just stops all of a sudden

past this point here's the archives i could make

i'm starting to think the jorge salazar is a red herring, the account he seems to commit activity with is "donda 2", a reddit post showcases this comment shitting on a tranny effect (archive), which in this comment section he ended up having a debate with a former emporium member (archive)

Are the cs:go and dota workshop communities just as aids as pozzed fortress 2? Or do the ruskies and macacos actually gatekeep their autistic games
Dont know about CS GO, but when it comes to Dota 2, I haven't really heard much about what happens in workshop circles. Might be because most people there don't really think much about items (and workshoppers behind said items) beyond "well, that looks cool" and equip it. But, I gotta say, shitty particle spam got considerably worse over the years:

And there are also quite a few thirst trap cosmetics (gotta keep MOBA autists around somehow after all). Just take recent event cosmetics as example:

Dota items aren't as bad as TF2 thematically wise but my fucking GOD are the particles on arcanas and immortals obnoxious as fuck. Enjoy deciphering the color of pixels and memorizing textures on your screen so you can fucking tell who's about to drop their ult on you because for 20 bucks you can just make your shit look totally different than it's supposed to. It's the one game where I think disabling cosmetics wholesale should be an option in the game imo.
