It's been a long time since I've done anything with this group - catbots have been dead for months now. However, you've probably noticed the newest iteration of these things around on casual servers - lagbots. Please refer to this very short but informative guide on how to deal with them: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1379840120

So!

This group has blown up a huge amount in the span of a single day. We went from getting swamped by a thousand catbots this morning (see previous announcements) to amassing over 80 people to join our cause.

Now, we need to be at least somewhat organized for this, so the following questions remain:

• Do we set up a discord server to coordinate?
  
  
• Should we set up sub-groups on a per region basis so that we can get reliable pings?
  
  
• Should we only respond to incidents of catbotting that we see while playing, or specifically go seeking catbots to kill (by queuing for maps like harvest/2fort/hightower/etc.)?

Leave comments on this announcement telling me what you think we should do going forward. I already have some ideas, but I'd like to hear some feedback on this.

The bot accounts have been purged from the group. Feel free to invite anyone you want to join!

Someone pointed out to me that, over the last few hours, around a thousand bot accounts have spam joined this group.

Normally, I'd be a bit concerned about this. But, honestly, this is actually hilarious. The fact that whoever is running all these bots is salty enough to set this up means that whatever we're doing is working!

Keep up the good work.
