I feel like this whole problem is just made up. Back in the day, when I played lots of Counter Strike, we had community servers. If a cheater joined, some admin was already online and kicked them right away. I'm sure we hit some people that were not actually cheaters, but they would just go to another server. And since there was no rank, no league, no rewards (like skins, drops, etc.), there was no external reward for cheating. It annoys me that cheating in competitive video games seems like a bigger problem than it has been in the past for no good reason.
Well its because we don't use community servers anymore. Lobbies are created in real time, particularly where SBMM is involved.
It's a bigger problem because in a lobby of 100 people, 1 person cheating ruins it for 99 players. Whereas in a 20 person lobby you can just boot that one person and it only ruins the game for 19 others.
