  1. @aila Cybersport clubs are a bit conservative in this regard, as you'll have a statistical admin that won't proceed with installation of TF2C or OF (due to the lack of demand, trustworthiness of the packages or any whimsical reasons). But I imagine it would be beneficial for some clubs to participate in #FixTF2 and hence try different game flavors? At the same time, it's kinda clashing with capitalistic motives, hard to imagine all this going much further.

  2. To be fair, #FixTF2 is a good opportunity to gather all evidence of how aimbots affect the whole #TeamFortress2 and it's not just the major places that are at risk. Distributed moderation is kind of an idea that popped up in me when I was reminded of bad actors ganging up on servers of different sizes.

    As @tijuu_ has pointed out, though, the ultimate and more realistic goal is to get #Valve to communicate at least some news, good or bad. And another insight that you can glean from the video is that players are self-moderating the space with reactive kick-voting, which is definitely awesome and contributes into distribution of power. Obviously, it can be abused by bots if they join in a batch, so developer needs tell the community what is needed to prevent this.

    All that #SaveTF2 people ask is a tiny inkling of participation with basic feedback from the developer, not yacking the lootbox cash-cow or other masking updates.

  3. @Rowedahelicon You are speaking sense! Really, #TeamFortress2 went so sideways, that bot hosters swatting your home are the least of dangers. The real danger is the brainrot and refusing to accept that defaults (like official #Valve servers) tend to attract the audience for cash-making abusers. These are times when distributing moderation and teaching how community servers operate are *essential* for sane multiplayer sessions.
