We almost allowed homophobia to drive a 26-year old creator to end their life……
When just a week ago, I watched grown men run to defend a 40+ year-old man who openly admitted to inappropriately texting minors…
Don’t know what times we’re in, just not it man 🤨
Anyone noticed a sharp decrease in bots today? A Vac wave went live earlier today, and many of the most prolific hosters have had their bots banned.
It's not over, but this could perhaps be a start. Let's see where this goes.

No matter how good things might look, it is important to stay vigilant and think critically.
This is starting to seem like a great effort but we have no idea if it is a lasting one. Keep your head in the game and remember to not celebrate yet. #Fixtf2 https://t.co/1IkaYGEunD
People are worried about the petition being botted. Can't blame you.
But don't worry as we have filters and checks in place, and we've been manually checking in on the process as well. Any time there's been suspicious activity we just manually remove it.

You know what's really frustrating thing about the Dr. Disrespect situation?
The LGBTQ+ community is constantly accused of putting children in harms way by just existing, and yet when a grown-ass man ADMITS to talking to a minor inappropriately, PEOPLE DEFEND HIM!
I mean this with full sincerity, the r/tf2 discourse surrounding #FixTF2 has been the most moronic display of community brain-rot I’ve ever witnessed.
It’s unbelievable how many false narratives have taken form, video soon.
"#FixTF2 should have opened with a boycott!" I see where you're coming from, but here's why I disagree.
The summer update is when TF2 earns the most revenue. The average consumer will grow bored of a boycott after a month.
🧵
@Thewhat89 That's a decent idea.
But I think constant hype building and reminding the community the fight is still on, is required, otherwise the movement will slowly dwindle out and everyone will forget eventually.
Oh yeah, We're still kicking #FixTF2
To everyone who's concerned that #FixTF2 is already over, it's not. We are still planning on going to Valve with the names of everyone who signed but we're waiting for the right moment, which is after the summer update.
The summer update is Valve's chance to show they listened
"TF2 is too old why fix the bots"
The bot problem extends far past TF2. The Number 3 game on steam rn with 700,000 "players" is a clicker game. Almost none of these people are players, rather bots farming item drops to sell for money.
TF2 set the precedent.
#fixtf2#savetf2
Valve will never shut down TF2. There’s way too much value tied up in unusuals and other items.
Not to mention they’re still releasing cases.
All we’re asking is for @valvesoftware to fix the bottling issue. Use some of that money to maintain the game.
#FixTF2 / #SaveTF2
Bot type that joins teams in big parties without fully joining the match, wasting 6 slots anywhere they queue
Awesome
