removedTaken from CEO and Co-founder Achilles' post on the forums here: http://www.blankmediagames.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=94733 As many of you know, over the last 2-3 months we have been under attack by a group of people who created bots to spam in Town of Salem games, stall lobbies, and attempt to brute force Town of Salem accounts as well as forum accounts. Today we know who those people are. We have linked IPs from bot accounts to the players main accounts, and we have screenshots from the infamous Grenzeland discord server that was used to organize the attacks where the botters admit to what they are doing. We will be banning these people from the game and from the forums. We have other screenshots of them targeting our Facebooks, LinkedIn and even my personal home address and mailing me inappropriate things. They also planned to file false reports to the Better Business Bureau in an attempt to tarnish our company name. We would include screenshots of those too, however, again, we want to protect the identity or identities of the source of this information. These people gathered together to attack us in anyway they could think of. It is clear they had no intention of trying to help improve the game but merely enjoyed causing havoc and destruction anyway they could. As a result, these people and any known aliases will be getting banned and permanently blacklisted from both the game and the forum. We hope this brings an end to this incident and those involved will be held accountable. Thank you to you all who are a part of this community and had to endure these problems. Thanks for staying, being patient, and understanding. The BMG Team Edit: Removed information related to the accounts of these users to not violate Steam name and shame rules. You can still go to the post linked earlier in the thread for all the information.
