Hello and thank you for taking the time to review my application.​

​

I hope this is in the correct place and the following is what I should write in attempts to become a trusted middleman.​

​

• So to start things off, I would like to introduce myself to you all so that you may know more about me . ​

My name is Nick and I currently live in NJ, and I turned 21 years old in Decemeber. I am a very generous and giving person with compassion for others , where it be online or in real life . I'm a mature person who can handle situations and people without any issues or offensive/rude comments toward the person. When it comes to Steam, specifically Team Fortress 2 and trading, I am a person who both plays TF2 and trades. Trading is what I do for the most part, ever since I started playing August 6th, 2012.​

​

Since the day I started playing, I begun trading and from the start I was incredibly eager and determined to understand item values, Unusuals, basically everything about trading that you need to know to become a good trader. This stems from the fact that I unboxed an Unusual within a few hours of playing on my first crate, and then subsequently having it sharked for 72 weapons, which caused me to realize what I actually had and what I traded it for. After that I wanted that to never happen again, and researched into the trading end of the TF2 spectrum. And during that time I realized how closely the games economy mimicked real life and the $ potential .​

​

I have been trading ever since and learning the ropes, and have since had a strong hatred towards sharks, which caused me to be an honest person and trader. I would say that I have greatly understood the TF2 trading community and how to trade as my backpack value is easily over $2k with only a few hundred dollars invested into the game to start up. ​

​

​

So to get to the reasonings that I believe I am worthy to become a Middle Man:​

​

Here is my entire history of Paypal transactions and what they were for:​

NEWEST​

​

As you can see, I have Paypal transactions dating back to almost a year ago with no issues at all with any of the people I have done business with.​

​

​

My SteamREP thread is not much Rep , due to me not caring in the past about having +rep because I never though I would have it be necessary for the future and I had no plans of buying anything or selling anything where I would require many Rep. So I only have a few.​

​

When I had created my thread I went by the name "Malfunctioning Eddie".​

​

I have spent a long time to build the status and reputation that I currently have. I have 1 Giveaway group which I kept and had been active for a few months, giving members over $200+ in items . This group was called "Helper's Giveaway & Raffle' ​

​

• http://steamcommunity.com/groups/KarmaGiveaway .​

o I held 'Server Giveaways' which were essential mini-games with prizes for the winners : http://steamcommunity.com/groups/KarmaGiveaway/discussions/1/​

o I had some Daily Giveaways towards the end of the group before I stopped. : http://steamcommunity.com/groups/KarmaGiveaway/discussions/3/846945955288889768/​

o I also did Mass Uncrating and Mass Crafts, during which I would give people watching on Livestream the chance to win items, or I would give them away : http://steamcommunity.com/groups/KarmaGiveaway/discussions/7/846945955320096177/ ​

o I believe that all of my Livestreams that I have done for that group can be seen in the history of my Livestream @ www.livestream.com/helpertf2​

​

​

After I stopped participation in that group, due to the death of a good friend and my dog at the time, I took a break from giveaways but created a new "Raffle, Giveaways, and More" group. This group is called "Daily Giveaways and Raffles" I currently run this actively every day.​

​

http://steamcommunity.com/groups/DailyGiveaway​

​

o In this group I have many raffles, giveaways, and more. I have given away many items daily which can be seen here : http://steamcommunity.com/groups/DailyGiveaway/discussions/0/846955554791511189/ ​

o I just gave away in a Free Raffle an Unusual . The Unusual was a "Team Spirit Nuts n Bolts Counterfeit Billycock (16 keys) . The only requirement was to fill out a Group Survey I wrote to get feedback on the group on what to change and add to make it better. : http://steamcommunity.com/groups/DailyGiveaway/discussions/3/846958724701071510/ ​

- This was Livestreamed for the winner as well.​

​

o I hold Sunday Night Server Giveaway's as I did in my previous group, and the list of games and winners with the prize they won are here : http://steamcommunity.com/groups/DailyGiveaway/discussions/3/846958724701045522/​

​

o And ofcourse I have raffles in which I raffle off items for an entry fee of 1 key or 1 Refined or 1 Reclaim. The raffles have extra spots, i.e. more than the item costs total. This is not for profit, it is to fund giveaways and raffles. If someone were to misconstrue it as personal profit, it would not make sense as I have given away at least 3x more than I have received from Raffles and Donations. : http://steamcommunity.com/groups/DailyGiveaway/discussions/1/​

​

​

o And this all would mean absolutely nothing if people did not actually receive their prizes, which is why I created a "I received my prize' thread for people to announce they did win their prize and received it (the unusual winner posted most recently ) : http://steamcommunity.com/groups/DailyGiveaway/discussions/0/846956269236435761/ ** Not all winners posted here.​

​

So that is my current giveaway group that I spend hours on some days on. I am very active in it, and I do run it by myself as I do not trust anyone enough with my group members to have them possibly scam them and ruin the reputation I have spend so much time acquiring. ​

​

​

For All Raffles, Giveaways, Etc. That I have held, I would select the winner via www.random.org and I would never pick the winner without having it hosted on LiveStream for all to see there is no foul play and me giving them the item while the live stream is recording.​

​

• I also have a very outstanding eBay feedback number : http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISA...d=kenevil&ftab=AllFeedback&rt=nc&myworld=true​

​

• My TF2R rep page over 4,000 reputation and 100% respected : http://tf2r.com/user/76561198065210179.html​

​

​

Other than everything above, I am almost always on Steam to trade and to host raffles and give people their prizes . I live in NJ, so I have EST timezone , I am available from 2PM the earliest, and I am online until 3 or 4AM every night.. depending on the day and night I will be online on Steam for most of the hours between 2 and 4Am . I have given much time to Steam and trading and my groups. ​

​

​

That is about it I believe. If you would like to know any more about me or my TF2 trading etc. Please post and ask or add me to talk . ​

​

Again, thank you for taking the time to review my application and read all of the links I have posted ,​
