I'm sure a lot of people in the community want to know more about Casual Mode ESPECIALLY THE RANKS which is why I think this article should be created. It's modeled after the [[Competitive Mode]] article. Unfortunately I can't finish it in one night but it will be finished tomorrow which means I probably shouldn't have made it just yet.

===Levels then===
 
 
 
Can someone use the HLMV and get pictures of the badges? The shape of the badges change every five levels and the color changes every twenty five levels. One star is added every level until the shape changes. It would be great if the badges were put on an official source like the TF2 Wiki as soon as possible, but I guess I'll do it eventually.

== How much "XP" do you get for...  ==
 
 
 
Is there a list somewhere that tells you how much XP you get for kills/objectives with different classes? [[User:Magicalpony|Magicalpony]] ([[User talk:Magicalpony|talk]]) 05:41, 2 August 2016 (PDT)
 
 
 
== Do we really need images for each levels? ==
 
 
 
That table would be too high if you upload all images. 1-1 image for each color, each star, and each style (bullets) wouldn't be enoguh in a gallery? We should bisect the table: lvl | needed | owned | tier | lvl | needed | owned | tier, so that it'd be much smaller.

:The page is still in construction, especially since I think the icons are not in the vpk. Though your objection is valid of course. I'd suggest to do "Civilian" as a whole and then just the highest for each successive grade, resulting in 30 total. To shorten that even more we could leave <5 stars out for Civilian, so the remaining levels would be: 1-5,10,15,20,25,50,75,100,125,150 or 14 total.— shots fired by: [[User:Nikno|Nikno]] <small>'''{'''[[User talk:Nikno|Talk]]''' | '''[[Special:Contributions/Nikno|Contribs]]'''}'''</small> 06:39, 15 August 2016 (PDT)
 
::The directory I got from https://www.reddit.com/r/tf2/comments/4s44u6/ever_wanted_to_know_how_all_the_casual_mode/. The creator of the post was one of the first people to post pictures of the level badges and I think pretty much every picture on the internet of the badges comes from that post.

== Missing stuff ==
 
 
 
This could use a description of the post-match screen with the map votes.
 
 
 
Also maybe someone could collapse the badges table because it takes a lot of space, vertically. ⇒[[File:Leaderboard class spy.png|16px|link=]] [[User:Anyar|<span style="font-size: 16px; font-family: TF2 Build">Anyar</span>]] ([[User_talk:Anyar|talk]]/[[Special:Contributions/Anyar|contributions]]/[[User:Anyar/No|giveaway]]) 14:39, 27 August 2017 (PDT)

So... I ended up seeing [https://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/images/archive/c/c4/20180214223127!GUI_Main_menu.png this old revision from File:Main menu.png], and apparently there was a badge design based on Jungle's Inferno [[Mercenary Park (map)]] "logo". Were these old/beta badges? Should they be added in the page, just like how it's on [[Competitive Mode#Gallery]]?

::Oh, okay, thanks for clarifying. Should they be added in some page, perhaps on their respective Campaign pages? I don't think these are really needed, though.

== DST ban bug ==
 
Today players started receiving [https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/827915885560725534/1038740717746536548/unknown.png matchmaking bans] for casual and mvm that seemed to coincide with DST as the "banwave" appeared to only last for ~1 hour. Bans were also all issued with a "0 minute cooldown" with the time remaining always under 1 hour which suggests a bug to me. [https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Source-1-Games/issues/4486 Here's] a github issue someone made about it too. Wondering if this warrants a paragraph/note and if confirmation of being a DST bug is needed. Anyone know if it happened last year?

:To me it seems likely it's just an accidental reactivation of the old ban system, don't think it'll have anything to do with DST.<br>[[User:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">GrampaSwood</font>]] ([[User talk:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">talk</font>]]) 11:56, 6 November 2022 (UTC)
 
 
 
::Someone seems to have confirmed it was DST as they were able to get a replicated ban by changing their system time to 8-9 UTC even after the bans stopped for everyone else. [[User:Jh34ghu43gu|Jh34ghu43gu]] ([[User talk:Jh34ghu43gu|talk]]) 02:59, 7 November 2022 (UTC)

== sv_pure 1 is not what makes casual so strict ==
 
The difference between sv_pure 2, 1, 0, and -1 is what files are forced upon the client, and how they're chosen. 2 and -1 simply enforce all and none files respectively, but 1 and 0 enforce files based on a whitelist and blacklist respectively. TF2 Casual isn't as strict as people think just because of sv_pure 1, it's actually because Valve Matchmaking servers have a very strict whitelist.
