I know they use bots, but they all the bots require the person using them to push an actual button every time that they start a game. Like when that one guy removed that button push, he crashed the servers and was banned, as he should’ve been. Seeing as the servers is not constantly down, you can assume that they are all following the rules, and are spending hours of their day on it, and I think that that level of time commitment should be rewarded. As for the new player thing, we, as a community, could make bots more accessible in order to mitigate that. Like when we make our nation we already get dozens of messages about alliances, shouldn’t be too hard to send one about baseball as well.
