1 hour ago Steam has added a new ban page SPECIFICALLY for TF2

The owner of RosneBot (was Catbook) also seems to have pulled their own YT page. Going dark maybe? Why could that be... https://t.co/Z1xh4iOxex #FixTF2

[Mark White @somsipcom]

Github has pulled the RosneBot (was Cathook) repos which kills the build process for users of this bot. Alt repos will probably be setup again but it stymies the hosters even more https://t.co/l4Mr9jFoJu #FixTF2

@JasonsTTs @valvesoftware Out of the mouth of Gabes: "Nothing is more likely to make a customer less likely to buy other games than a really bad game experience." Oh how right you are Gabe. How very right #FixTF2

[Mark White @somsipcom]

Words of Gabe: "I go play games to have fun. And so we had to come up with some notion of what fun was." It's not being insta-killed by a bot every 30 seconds, I can assure you of that. #FixTF2

[Mark White @somsipcom]

@valvesoftware Robin Walker: "With all of our products we’ve always tried to extract as much data as we can get from sales but also players comments and stuff like that…" We enjoy TF2, you're killing it, we're unhappy. Succinct enough? #FixTF2

[Mark White @somsipcom]

From Robin Walker: "Cheats are probably the number one way to destroy the community. We really, really want to remove them and so we do everything we can to stop them." Sadly "destroy the community" is far too apt here #FixTF2 @valvesoftware

[Mark White @somsipcom]

Words of Gabe: "We constantly ask ourselves the question, how can we make our fans happy every day, and what are the different ways we can do that." Just the one way for now Gabe #FixTF2 @valvesoftware

[Mark White @somsipcom]

From Gabe: "We've essentially crowd-sourced supervision of a lot of these decisions to our customers and it works way better than almost any other system we could design. They're rabid, they're passionate, and there are a lot of them." So we're rabid and passionate eh? #FixTF2

[Mark White @somsipcom]

Gabe's thoughts on customers: "We seem to be kind of reliable and trustworthy, and they like that." Well, I just choked on my coffee on that one. Oh how you've changed @valvesoftware You used to be cool #FixTF2

[Mark White @somsipcom]

Words of Gabe: "Ninety percent of games lose money, 10 percent make a lot of money" You'd think you'd want to keep making those 10% work as well as you can, wouldn't you?? #FixTF2 @valvesoftware

[Mark White @somsipcom]

Gabe Newell: "Valve can basically get data back from 10 million people is maybe 10 minutes. Being able to have that for everything you do is insanely valuable" How about feedback from 300k people in 10 days?? Worth anything?? #FixTF2

[Mark White @somsipcom]

@TaisHouseGaming Some will sign the petition, some will swear at @valvesoftware , some will post memes, some will boycott Steam, others will quietly go and find something else to play. Ultimately, we all want to #FixTF2 so we can play the game we enjoy.

Other @valvesoftware related news that I'll just chuck out here #FixTF2 https://t.co/VcAOLIcunf

@EvieEvenaris A fair amount is made of the fact that Valve owns and protects its IP. I agree that open-sourcing TF2 would be good for the community, but it doesn't fit with past behavior of Valve unfortunately #FixTF2

If only headshotin bots was as easy as headshotin wankers the Mrs. and me would #fixtf2 in a snap. Keep yer heads up, mates!

[Mark White @somsipcom]

Not that I want to solve your problem for you @valvesoftware but how about grepping a server.log for chat text like "BOT RENTAL" and finding some steam IDs to ban. It really isn't difficult to do something #FixTF2

[John Lowrie @johnpatricklowr]

Tf2 4ever!!!
