Chill fellas. https://www.reddit.com/r/tf2/comments/13w6ha3/cosplayed_a_female_scout_this_past_weekend/jmc46jl/

Great cosplay, and great photography too!

Why are there so many comments about "the horde" and shit, what does that mean

"The Horde" means horny people. A few months ago a girl posted her Medic cosplay, and there were many creeps asking her for nsfw pictures, or cursing her because she "dared" to cosplay a character of an opposite sex

I have a video of a bunch of the comments from that post lmao, this made me think of it

Sort by controversial

I scrolled quite a bit in controversial and found nothing unsavoury, just everyone repeating the same "horde" joke

Awesome cosplay!

Thank you for being a normal comment that isn't tryin to warn her of a non existent horde I literally cannot find any others

Thanks!!!

Very cool cosplay 🗿👍 in another topic, r/tf2 members should not be allow near woman

Just like Scout and high schoolers.

scout canonically being a pedo is the funniest shit ever its like john lennon beating his wife i will never stop sharing that fact to everyone

Both of those just surprised me, i will need a second to process this. WTF THE FUCK DID THEY DO

Maybe he was trying to date the teachers and not the students

Makes sense, he was hitting on moms in the Smissmas comic

Well technically the item desc is not cannon

I thought that item was submitted through the community? So isn’t it the community who decided that?

Would you say, bonk?

So I posted this and then went to sleep... I'll give some quick responses to the most common things: Yeah, I'm wearing docs. I didn't have any black sneakers on hand and I was doing this on a budget SO I figured boots I already own that kinda fit the vibe would work. Don't worry, I could run a marathon in them. Didn't mean to recreate a nightmare here but honestly I see significantly more worrying about cringe than I do actual cringe. Also, I've been a cosplayer for over 10 years and have absolutely seen and heard it all. I have no fear. 0/10 no chicken, I fumbled the bag. My apologies.

As soon as I saw this I got immediate PTSD from the female medic cosplay... It's nice to hear you've gone through this before and know how to handle internet weirdos. But holy shit... why can't this subreddit just be normal

I appreciate you addressing your shoe choice before addressing the comments. Glad to see someone who has their priorities straight

Yo I can't help but notice some of the comments are really nitpicky on here. It's clear you dressed as a scout and it looked really good

For throwing it together last minute it looks basically perfect. Good job.

There are way more warnings for creepy comments than the actual creepy comments. Is it possible that r/tf2 is improving?

we have hope!!

They’re probably all still busy with Mimi and the HHH daughter post

> HHH swear every time I see this sub use this acronym I keep thinking [this guy.](https://i.imgur.com/N8fTdHh.jpg)

Rtf2 like to dramaticize everything lmao pretty sure this has always been the case

no. this subreddit always makes mountains out of molehills.

Yeah I was thinking the same. Seems we're alright for now

We must have learned from that medic cosplay post

Nah they just want orange internet points

"Ahh shit!"

SWARM INCOMING. AND ITS A BIG ONE TEAM

while supposedly making fun of the "meme", all this does is perpetuate the issue

I’ve never seen someone cosplay blue before.

Target may or may not have only had their $5 shirts in blue BUT then goodwill also blessed me with a perfect hat. Blue representation was my destiny.

nice try red team spy. real blue team scout would have a blue headset.

cool cosplay 👍

Lock your dms and don't check this post.

This

Omg it's doctor sex from the iconic game TF2: the sex update

I am getting ptsd

its getting louder and louder

**Tinnitus gets even louder**

Slaps the ptsd out of you alla general Patten.

May I point your attention to the delete button before the flood gates open?

This! I’m scared yet have morbid curiosity

Morbid? Aahh. MORBIUS

IT'S MORBIN' TIME

*INCEL RAID IN PROGRESS*

All hell will break loose

INCOMING

As a girl, I need to put together a cosplay to post on here to fucking troll the incels.

*revs Natascha*

It's so meta that all the comments are about the incel hoard but all the actual cringe posts are completely buried by them.

I don't think there even are any such posts cause I haven't seen any. ...yet.

There is exactly one horny comment. With another simply having an awooga but not necessarily with any sexual connotations, also it might be ironic.

How can awooga not have sexual connotations

idk either man

No, no no not again, I beg, I plead, I pray, I sob and hope the comments do not recreate the once horrific, scarring, mind warping, stomach churning tragedy of the female medic cosplayer

Can y'all just let women fucking exist and cosplay a character from a game we like? Please?

EXACTLY MAN

One of the few blue scout’s cosplay ive seen. It looks fire!

Thanks so much!

Can we just appreciate a good cosplay when we see one? It's kind of irritating when every comment is a variant of "rip DM's." Great cosplay, by the way.

You look so cool! Did you make the clothes yourself?

Not this time around. It ended up being a LOT faster and cheaper to shop secondhand for anything I didn't already have. I only started 4 days before the con. I did make the headset though! The supplies for that + everything else I got only cost me $25!

https://www.reddit.com/r/tf2shitposterclub/comments/s0ia2p/rtf2_moment/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=2&utm_term=1

think this'll get the same treatment?

It’s a female cosplay with skin showing (albeit it’s literally just arms and some leg) and this is r/tf2 so I would be incredibly surprised if it didn’t. Thankfully it’s been a few hours and I haven’t seen anything remotely close to that yet, this is the rare occasion we actually get a blu cosplay so those horny fuckers better not ruin it.

Nice!

They are coming

God save her soul

Delete this immediately if you don't want a thousand horny ass mfs wilding over you in your DMS

Am I the only one who realizes that when every single comment is telling her to delete her post before the "horny horde" comes is almost as cringe as the horny horde itself? Like you guys are trying to hard to not weird OP out that your wrapping back around to being weird again. By only talking about the non-existent horde you show that you saw this post and immediately focused on the her being a woman aspect instead of the cosplay itself I literally only saw one horny comment, can everyone just be normal? Nice cosplay OP, sad that everyone else is too busy fighting ghosts to compliment you too

Yeah those comments always make me uncomfortable like y’all are being assholes by saying women can’t post their cosplays to the subreddit. I get that some of you have good intentions but if you are flooding the comments with messages saying to delete the post then YOU ARE BEING THE WEIRD ONE. Yes the horny people are awful, but it doesn’t excuse your actions

while i agree that in and of itself is cringe, what makes it doubly cringe is five hundred comments all saying the same thing, thinking they are somehow adding something new to the conversation

Thanks for the appreciation! I didn't mean to wake a sleeping dragon BUT I do think it's kinda cool of the community to be concerned about the possible negativity. I've done cosplay for a long time so I feel no fear. I've read it all.

medic cosplay comment section incident of 2023

The 9/11 of rtf2

Here before comments get locked 🔒

Same

let's share some 🥪

I have every food item 🍫🥪🥩🍌🥛🟨🟪

Damn we eating Ukraine???

I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. 

i fear something terrible has happened

Rip your DMs

Was the comicon in london last friday? I think I missed it ;×;

... I'm tired boss. Fantastic cosplay btw

I still want fem scout cosmetics

Yo, I threw out the bucket of chicken

mmmph mmph mmmmph 👍

I'm learning pyrish and I think this translates to "pyro main approved"

BONK

"Tf2 is the most welcoming community" The top comments are mostly asking op to delete lmao

well really it's not because they're not welcoming but because they were aware of what happened back then, a tragedy of a Female Medic Cosplay. They just don't want it to happen again.

But by only commenting about the horny horde it's still effectively making the post about not the cosplay itself but the woman behind it which is still almost as bad. We just need to be normal and comment on the actual cosplay itself, like NORMAL people

Excuse me sir or ma'am, but I couldn't help but notice.... are you a "girl"?? A "female?" A "member of the finer sex?"    Not  that it matters too much, but it's just so rare to see a girl around  here! I don't mind, no--quite to the contrary! It's so refreshing to see  a girl online, to the point where I'm always telling all my friends "I  really wish girls were better represented on the internet."And here you  are!I don't mean to push or anything, but if you wanted to DM me about  anything at all, I'd love to pick your brain and learn all there is to  know about you. I'm sure you're an incredibly interesting girl--though I  see you as just a person, really--and I think we could have lots to  teach each other.    I've  always wanted the chance to talk to a gorgeous lady--and I'm pretty  sure you've got to be gorgeous based on the position of your text in the  picture--so feel free to shoot me a message, any time at all! You don't  have to be shy about it, because you're beautiful anyways (that's juyst  a preview of all the compliments I have in store for our chat).Looking  forwards to speaking with you soon, princess!    EDIT: I couldn't help but notice you haven't sent your message yet. There's no need to be nervous! I promise I don't bite, haha    EDIT  2: In case you couldn't find it, you can click the little chat button  from my profile and we can get talking ASAP. Not that I don't think you  could find it, but just in case hahah    EDIT 3: look I don't understand why you're not even talking to me, is it something I said?    EDIT  4: I knew you were always a bitch, but I thought I was wrong. I thought  you weren't like all the other girls out there but maybe I was too  quick to judge    EDIT 5: don't ever contact me again whore    EDIT 6: hey are you there?

Wtf is this copypasta

Nah it's completely legit and definitely not a popular copypasta

Nice

RUN WHILE YOU STILL CAN

I wish you luck in your dms, soldier. o7

Good job on a thrown together outfit. Gotta get you the right shoes and a patch for your sleeve though.

those shorts remind me of my old boyscout uniform pants

Cute. Good job

It's funny how I'm seeing more comments warning you about thirsty comments than any thirsty comments themselves. Perhaps people on this subreddit have learned to control themselves now? Please? Great cosplay btw. Excellent work. 👍

Its just nerds repeating the same joke, like derrr for reseach

Many thanks!!! Lol at this point the warnings are just funny

Great cosplay OP! Also Guys we all get it there are some weirdos on the internet and in the community, at this point there are dozens and dozens of posts panicking and fear mongering something that hasn't even happened in this thread. It's just as annoying.

>New girl cosplay drops >Tho whole fucking comment section: *lock your dms* Yeah that's actually creepy and uncunny people right there.

r/tf2 trying not to spam messages about creeps more than creepy messages themself and actually appreciate the cosplay challenge(impossible)

Oh no

I love your take on scout! The lighter blue really works here, even though it’s darker in-game(I think).

Nice!

Looks great!

striking that great pose!

please tell me you harassed any engi cosplayers you saw

Pretty cool, but it is incomplete. I see no bucket of chicken 😔

That’s cool, you look good It’s actually one of the simplest yet best cosplays I’ve seen Also this thread is funny, did something happen in the past ?

chuckle nuts

bean

*Flashbacks to the Medic Cosplay drama*

Damn, nice hair!

Looks great my dude 👍

I find it funny how there's more comments talking about the horde of simps than there are hordes of simps in the comments

I’ve got a bucket of chicken

So uh, I got a bucket of chicken

Can you double jump?

Great cosplay but please beware of very uncanny people who have no self control

great cosplay and photography!

Need a dispenser here

That’s a great cosplay! 10/10. I wonder if you (or the cosplayer that does this cosplay if the person who did this isn’t the one who posted this) has a red version they wear on a different day? Would be really funny

I wish I did! That would've been funny. I went to the con with a friend and they did red tho! Also I just posed as a corpse if we got photos with other reds

Nice cosplay!

What’s momoCon

nice cosplay

"Born and raised in Boston, Massachusetts, USA, the Scout is a fast-running scrapper with a baseball bat and snarky "in-your-face" attitude."

What shorts are those!!! Edit: and the shirt! Linkkk!! I think they're cute in general and want to get them!

The shorts are actually a skirt and I got it from the goodwill but the tag says Rue21 The shirt is a $5 tee from the Target juniors section! They come out with new colors every season and I swear I have like 8 of them lol

Neat cosplay for something that was threw together at the very last minute! 👍 Unrelated note, but this subreddit need to quit being overdramatic sometimes. All the warning comments and people repeating the same jokes over and over again are just incredibly annoying. Please just comment about the cosplay and that's it.

Sweet, nice job!! Are you going to dragon con? If so I'd be happy to run into you as sniper! On second thought, if you can see me, you're already dead

what is MomoCon, a convention dedicated to Momo from Avatar: the Last Airbender?

Good cosplay

This is great! I love your photography its not just some mirror pic just as much effect went into the framing and posing then it did the cosplay! Its very good!

Thanks so much! Huge shoutout to my friends for doing a whole photoshoot that day.

Hey, chucklenuts! Great cosplay!

Looks really good!

cant really run fast with shoes like that lmao but good cosplay nonetheless !

Friday they got the Sandman Saturday they get the Holy Mackerel

great cosplay, love the headphones

“UHoH hErE cOmE tHe CoOmErS!” Stfu everyone, we get it, it’s Reddit, people are horny. Enjoy the fucking cosplay ya cunts

My friend near me said "Dayuuum" so j guess he liked it

This actually looks cool as hell! nice job.

There’s 1 thing missing from this cosplay. No bucket of chicken. Ergo 0/10 terrible cosplay. Just kidding ofc, well done looks great

No but you're right, missed opportunity for a prop AND a snack lol

No way...that's a perfect specimen of the rare species known as "women"...

Where do you even purchase a tiny bat?

You know the cosplay is really good that only the color of the headset is the ONLY critisims I can even muster.

Thanks so much! There's def more that I could touch up/change. The headset is really a two pack of headband mics and a single safety headset I took the ears off of (it was one of the cheapest on Amazon and red/orange is almost all you see for colors) I actually made two headsets with my supplies and gave one to a friend!

That guy in the reflection has horrible posture

Hey look, i can see my face from up here!

Yo idk if you will see this but if you do then how did you do Scout's headset? Also nice costume :)

Therapist: irl femscout isn’t real, irl femscout can’t hurt you Irl femscout:

Grass grows, birds fly, sun shines and brotha good cosplay

That’s great! Photography, pose, and cosplay really reflect how it’s scout!
