Apologize for the downtime, Natalie was expecting spam attacks again, I've rebooted the bot again hopefully everything is settled.
Natalie update
Natalie experienced spam attacks from certain groups, she has been struggling to keep up with response. At the time I've disabled certain modules that handles messages. For now, spamwatch and among of other modules are back in.
However, I've decided to block natalie from working in groups where she isn't an admin. The reason is due to bot is unable to work as non-admin and there are certain modules that requires an admin rights to work properly. Given that fact she is made for group management. People added her as non-admin for entertainment purpose instead of giving her serious tasks such as admin duties, if you are going to use natalie just for entertainment purposes. Please do not consider using her as non-admin. Feel free to consider alternative solution.
So now I hope she is back to normal. Do not hesitate to report spammers in @NatalieSupport.

Natalie update
We're currently testing a solution to combat all the spammers Natalie has. You might have noticed the bot slows down from around ~2PM GST to ~4PM GST. To combat this Natalie will automatically restrict some users who use too many commands in a short amount of time.
The restriction has a variable amount of time, small bursts of excessive use of commands will make people restricted for a bit while continuous spamming will result in longer restriction periods.
If you can't use commands this is the reason why, please understand that we want to give a fairly responsive bot to our users and this is a solution we're currently testing.

Natalie milestone
In less than 4 months as the previous milestone, Natalie gained
Her growth pace is unexpectedly faster than I thought. As a result of this Natalie will have newly rewritten version in under the hood over the next period of weeks. You may also notice she will be snappier in responding to commands. Hopefully, the new codes will able to meet the demands of a large number of chats.
Thank you for using her! Let us know if you are facing any issues with her.

Natalie update
Apologies for performance struggles recently, as part of improvement and rewriting under the hood code caused some abuse of CPU usage. I'm still monitoring the cause.
The Anti-spam algorithm is still new and learning on how to handle excess abuse of commands, spam-sending messages etc. It will take a while for Natalie to get used. She might, however, get little slowish when spam raids occur, eventually she will return to normal itself.

I've received reports that she was blocking users randomly out of blue for sending commands. This issue was apparently fixed recently. I have investigated the cause thoroughly and therefore, this shouldn't happen again..
Apologies for the inconvenience.

Natalie update
As recently I have noticed Natalie was significantly delaying to send replies to users, apparently the issue was related to antispam system it was unable to handle such large numbers of messages at the same time. As she is currently having over 21k chats with millions of users.
As much I want to give my maximum efforts to push the limits that Python has. Unfortunately, it wasn't quite successful and the rewritten codes sort of acting up with outgoing/incoming messages. However my only last resort is to upgrade the servers to handle large numbers of requests from telegram's bot API. Due to insufficient in financial cause I may choose to stay in current servers until there's alternative solutions to the issue.
Edit: nvm. I fixed the bug in antispam.
