It's been steadily overrun by bots, and I guess the community hit a breaking point
That suck. Nobody like bots.
Bot like cheat bot or bot like play bot?
play bot? I'm not quite sure what you mean, but ya all sorts of bots are flooding TF2. There are the normal aim-bots, but they also spam noise makers, voice chat, and text chat. They will also try and vote kick and normal player.
Maybe a "play bot" is like, when you run the practice mode the game pits you against bots instead of real players. I've seen cases of older games starting to spawn in bots like that so that the few remaining players don't realize how empty all the servers are.
Then there's cheat bots which...I'm not sure why people do that?
I see, thank you.
