But at the end of the day, its still a house right?
There's no visual or stench (lmao) differences between a burning tossle to another burning tossle. The absolute only difference is the item ID - who the hell plays TF2 just to check item IDs? That analogy is pretty much moot.

The only thing that the word "dupe" is being used in the community now is to pick holes in a hat trying to make the owner feel guilty of something, and getting it cheaper. It's just scummy tactics.
Okay i have to admit my analogy was pretty bad lol.
BUT, a real rolex watch and a fake rolex watch do EXACTLY the same thing, but one has a real brand ID and the other not.

A real burning tossle and a duped burning tossle do EXACTLY the same thing, but one has a real ID and the other not.

See my point here?
People want genuine and real hats, not fake copies that have been wrongly obtained. (much like a fake rolex)
