We've just seen a very ambitious proposal by @yabapmatt.sps in response to our community's repeated calls for action against the out-of control bot situation in wild.

I applaud that Matt is ready to tackle the issue. I think this solution WILL WORK to remove the hordes of microbots.
But what I think is being overestimated is that bronze and silver players are (unintentionally) being targeted and reaped with the bot farms.
I think that we need to give a voice to these players. I think we have many committed, non-extractive players at lower investment levels.
Remember the Lesson We Learned from Modern:
We need players of all levels for a proper ranked ladder.
I just think every real player that quits feeling there is no longer a place for them here, is yet another player that we need to replace.
Every real player here - even the "so-called little guys" - together, we add up to a quality ranked ladder.
So I want to hear from every real player with a mostly bronze/silver deck that plays in wild manually.
Bronze and Silver Players: I want your stories!
