Huge Bot Ban Wave
A huge wave of VAC bans has been dishes out to multiple different types of bots. It has even costed one of the hosters 150$ worth of cosmetics (likely stolen).

That’s good news! It seems like Valve just done something.

A manual ban wave or a change to VAC? A nice effort either way, though I fear they'll be back before too long.

Neither steam's stats count nor teamwork.tf has shown any drop. I suspect this to be disinformation.

Most likely a ban wave. I would thank Valve for fixing a bot problem.

I apologize, as it is a wors, but misinformation would still be correct in this tense.

It actually is a word. Thewhat's not exactly a reliable source though, does he have sources himself or is this speculation on his part?

The best response would be to show your stats/graphs/evidence of any VAC wave. So until then I don't believe your statement.

No reason for such effort if true, I persynally subjectively believe.

Especially considering their treatment of VALVe that keeps a 16.8 years old (and counting!) game back up, updated (not really in terms of gameplay), and running.

Mayhaps it was to calm people down, too.

I personally think they were just like touching up vac and now they're just gonna continue to do nothing

Now watch as bot hoster #27 press a button and creates 10000000 new bots.

Fine, I'll check it tomorrow. I just checked it before my first reply and saw a consistent graph.

First we need to see the actual effects, then we can celebrate.

if im not wrong the hoster stated this on his discord.
but he also said that he would be back to hosting bots after he received his paycheck.
