Nice job on the bot wave today, Gaijin (honestly, not being sarcastic)

Credit where credit is due:

There was a big bot wave earlier today of starter accounts with procedurally generated names using German destroyers to try and bot naval AB. They got about 30 games in each before they were all banned, looks like, under 4 hours from the start of the wave.

I remember a few years back this was a regular occurrence, and Gaijin had neither the resources nor the inclination to stop this sort of stuff so a wave could go on for weeks, at 100+ games per bot per day, and those DDs swap out for CLs and eventually CAs, and eventually the bot makers started selling those scripts to real players as well, and this wrecked RB for over a year. This action today was very efficient. So, good work! (Also interesting they were using AB, not RB like they normally did before, and were racking up human-equivalent scores.)
