So we need to update the class taunt pages that don't have the high-fives. [[User:Shine|Anyone who is good with images]] wanna take a crack at that? If not, I'll work on it this weekend. -- [[User:En_Ex|En Ex]]  <sub>([[User_talk:En_Ex|talk]])</sub> 18:07, 2 November 2010 (UTC)

A question, wouldn't the Sandvich taunt be considered a special taunt, like Oktoberfest? [[User:Justin8|Justin8]] 12:56, 24 November 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
 
 
== Amputator's healing taunt ==
 
 
 
Should the Amputator's taunt be classified as a Special Taunt? Given that it has an additional ability very similar to (and definitely more powerful than) the Kritzkrieg's taunt, one would think it would fit right in even though it's visually identical to the Bonesaw/Vitasaw's taunt. -- [[User:KaiserYoshi|KaiserYoshi]] 09:45, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
==Videos==
 
Does anyone really need ''four'' videos to illustrate the exact same set of taunts? [[User:Hostile Companion Cube|Hostile Companion Cube]] <sup>Roar</sup> 05:55, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
 
:Was about to pull this to attention. This is what the crap wiki does, they have a multitude of videos all of the same thing on the same page. Anyways, the unused guitar taunt is should go on the [[Dischord]] page itself. We should keep if any, one of the high five videos, and get an AA image for the bottle taunt to go on the bottle page. Just an ideal way to fix things. Any other ideas people? -= [[User:M-NINJA|<font color="Blue">'''M-NINJA'''</font>]] [[File:Burger_Gib.png|24px|link=User_talk:M-NINJA]] =- 02:27, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
==Possible use of High Five?==
 
Recently, I was parked in a corner, when a Demoman walks up and taunts. This somehow triggered the high five animations. I'm thinking it's some sort of mod, but if it's not, it may be worth adding.[[User:Gigaspine7|Gigaspine7]] 21:11, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
Same here, but I had a high-five when me and Soldier were in front of each other and taunting simultaneously. Have to check on couple of different servers to see if it's a mod or not.

Its a sourcemod plugin.[[Advanced Weaponiser uses it but you would have to taunt at the same time.[[User:Awesomesauce|~awesomesauce~]] 23:19, 20 February 2011 (UTC)Awesomesauce.

== Must have ammo? ==
 
 
 
Why to include that? Everyone knows that if you don't have ammo you can't exuip the weapon. Besides you can do the taunt with no ammo. Shoot your last bullet and then quickly press g before the game switches your weapons. There should just be a trivia section explaining that in the bottom of the article. --[[User:SandeProElite|SandeProElite]] 17:14, 22 March 2011 (UTC)
 
:Irrelevant, IMO. Besides, that stuff doesn't belong in trivia. It's a game mechanic. [[User:Turboplant|Turboplant]] 18:11, 19 May 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
== Do we need these videos? ==
 
 
 
Take a look at the videos on the class specific taunt articles (let's use the [[Soldier taunts]] as an example). I suggest that we remove these as the individual taunts are demonstrated on a per-weapon basis and therefore in more depth by the weapon demonstration project. Besides, I think whoever put them on the articles might be farming views as the videos have been made with the Replay system. [[User:I-ghost|i-ghost]] 13:26, 8 May 2011 (UTC)
 
:I agree, they're not needed.

:Same for me, you can delete it. It was only added to farm views. --[[User:Pratolli|Pratolli]] 14:26, 8 May 2011 (UTC)
 
I don't like the high five video. Its 8 minutes long and seeing as the taunts take up all of 4 seconds it seems like a brilliant waste of time . It's just repeated heaps and heaps of times and i think the only way you can get off with that is by providing different angles. Anyway, I think it'd be better if someone remade the video.[[User:Pierow|Pierow]] 06:48, 31 May 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
== Taunt kill names ==
 
 
 
I just want to know where we got the taunt kill names from. Were they fan made, created by the wiki or officially released? [[User:Pierow|Pierow]] 06:42, 31 May 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
== Hi-five? ==
 
 
 
In the "hi-five" description, it says that all classes except the Engineer have hi-five taunts, but it then says that after the Soldier and Demo got their taunts, Engi got his in the Engi update, followed by the others. So which is it? Can the Engineer Hi-five? [[User:Ericson666|Ericson666]] 17:29, 13 July 2011 (PDT)

Additional kill taunt name

In addition to the other kill taunts, the Scorch Shot's kill taunt name is simply listed as "Scorch shot". I think I'll move everything, similarly to the other kill taunts, to the most official name we have for it. Unless the taunt is name directly mentioned somewhere.
