(That's 23 players banned over the course of 54 games, that's nearly a cheater every other game)

Sums up my thoughts. It's not fun playing with cheaters.

I don't normally say stuff like this, but if people are willing to cheat blatantly for a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ symbol in a video game, I have a hard time believing that pro's aren't doing it for hundreds of thousands of dollars. Doesn't mean i'm going on a witch hunt though, that's arguably just as bad as the cheating itself.

Not wasting my time with a game more infested than London during the black plague. It's not just MM either, FaceIT, CEVO and ESEA all have cheaters, it's just that people assume no-one cheats in ESEA because you have to pay for it. Famous pro's banned from ESEA/ESL/FACEIT include s1mple, Flex, m0e, Snax, xelos, VilliG and natu.

To summarise this rant, a few words from Valve regarding the iBP ban to show the hipocrisy that Valve spew.

"We will continue to take whatever action we think is necessary to protect the entertainment value created by professional Counter-Strike..."
I guess that doesn't include finding cheaters.
