It's misleading when searching for an item, and is often used only to screw around buyers looking to trade.
I'll just cite something that happened to me yesterday on the portal 2 trade server. I've been looking for a Miami Nights Team Captain, and I just happened to see a ''jrobinsonmilwaukee1999'' jumping around spawn with one equipped. I inquire as to whether it's for sale, and he says yes, so I request a trade with him, after checking his backpack, which was private. For the next 5 minutes he gets me to show him offers for it, despite not showing me the TC, like I asked him to. After I had shown him everything, he says ''haha i duont acutalty have it ahaha'' and closes the trade.
It's not the first time something like this has happened to me, but it tends to happen a lot. Some actually advertise their extravagant items in chat, but will never show you the items that they're advertising, and always have private backpacks, despite having them equipped. There really is no use for it on trade servers other than to flaunt, but it's more of a hindrance to traders who actually want to get shit done than retards idling and spamming chat with fake trades.

People donate to get the ability to use the command. Just don't be a dumbass, if you press f on the guy the hat is still in it's original quality, it only says Effect: yadayadayada
 
You are looking for unusuals in the wrong place. Do you know how many people have that specific unusual like 3 Mattie being one of them. So it would be a hell of a lot easier to just add those two people instead of asking trolls in skial.

I wasn't really looking for unusuals there, I just happened to see that particular one while I was screwing around on the server.

Just press the keybind to check a players items or don't base your trade partners on what hat they are wearing

I like prancing around in an unusual Team Captain I don't even own.
 
just make fake unusuals have a desc of "This is a fake unusual"
Don't need to, the fake unusuals always are level 100 and don't have "unusual" in front of the name. So for example if it was a Team Captain that was fake, it would just say Team Captain in purple letters with a level 100 and the effect underneath that

There are level 100 unusuals. And some times if the item server is being iffy it'll just be "Strange revolver" in orange letters. Although the odds of that are slim, it still could happen.

I dont see that it would make a huge different in how to trade servers work. You can also tell if the person actually has the unusual or not by !bp-ing them.

Yes but with the revolver it still says the strange. With the fake unusuals there is no unusual in the name
 
No, the revolver doesn't some times. It happens a lot and I'm surprised you're not familiar with it.
Ok, I will try to explain as best as I can. When the item server is down, it won't say strange revolver because you don't technically have one at the moment of the server being down. Now the revolver when you do have it will always say strange in front of it because its a real strange revolver. The fake unusuals made with the donator command wont have unusual in the name of the item because they are fake. And that is why we don't need a description that say they are fake because its already obvious enough that they are fake. And I can't respond after this because I need to get to work

I could be wrong but I think only a 'real' unusual gets purple font
