oldhasu, your post appears to advocate cheesing, the practice of exploiting a bug or defect to win outright, gain an advantage for yourself, or provide a disadvantage to one or more others.
In IT Security terms, it seems like you suggested players commit a Denial of Service (DoS) attack on EVERY Chinese player because SOME of them install and use CHEAT CODE. Wouldn't this be a disproportionate response? What about the other players in the lobby when you do this? Wouldn't this harm innocent bystanders?
IMO "the Chinese" are just a group of people. In any group of people, some are really cool. Some are really good LB players. Some are outspoken nationalists or racists. Some are cheaters/hackers. If you replace "the Chinese" with "the Russians" or "the Americans" or any other national/language group, the same statements apply, maybe in different amounts.
You appear really upset by cheaters. Do you really want to let cheaters and cheesers turn you into one of them?
In response to your original post "developers never ban cheaters", I ask "Why do you think LB got more stable with the 0.92 release?" LB devs won't admit to it, but 2 cheat devs acknowledge that LB 0.92 broke their cheats. The LB dev team work on fixes that apply in a wide scope rather than going after single cheaters. Why? One, those fixes do the most good (stability++, prevents cheats) for the least effort (measured in labor hours of programmers and QA). Two, developers write code. They are not necessarily trained for security investigations and bans and not saying stuff that incites a lawsuit. LB dev team rarely responds to a bug report other than to say they're investigating, if that.
I am not part of LB dev team or Curve. However, I am used to asking myself "if this software problem don't get fixed, is somebody gonna die?" My expectations of bad are maybe a little different.
Unless you somehow hacked BIOS of a pacemaker or ventilator or insulin auto-dispensor to attach it to LB 0.92, LB's just a game. Breathe. Maybe reduce caffeine and go exercise a little.
Be well!
