The New-York times wrote an article about our hat antics.

At one point in the article they stated that in 2009 they wanted a way for people to show off skill, so they added hats
Hats were introduced to Team Fortress (or TF2, as players call it) almost by accident. In 2009, Valve, which makes the game, wanted to install hard-to-obtain items so that players could show off their skills.

Personally I don't think hats show off skill... They show off how much money one has to spend or gamble on crates.
Go ahead and have a read on what you think this article is saying and if you agree or disagree with it.

Disagree on this, i've never putted a penny in tf2 (exept premium) , and i had some pretty neat hats...
 
I remember when hats were first revealed, I think that Valve said that they'd put stats on hats as well. That'd be interesting to see.

Well unless you are a hermit that has no time to do anything but trade up or unless you have generous friends, you're most likely gonna spend money on an Unusual.

TF2 would be long dead if it wasn't for the hats.

counter strike has no hats and that game is still very much alive after what 13 years. Since day one its basically the same game just better graphics over time with other minor changes here and there. i played TFC for about 4-5 years and the TFC community was very large up until TF2 came out & that game has no hats what so ever.
