Hackers: 1. Those that do it to be competitive for serveral reasons:
Poor connection, Poor Skill, Ego, CBF trying. 2. Those that do it to be disruptive Don't know why people exist in this group, some people seriously have far too much time on their hands. 3. Those that actually make their own hacks and want to test their programming skill in a real world setting Some people with far too much time on their hands, but at least you can empathise as to the reasons why. Group 1. is the most insidious, especially when they are doing it for ego/lack of skill and are actually proficient at covering their tracks Group 2. Is the most annoying from a server administrators point of view as they generally draw the most attention to themselves and they have the necessary tools to get back on a server quickly when an admin steps in and STEAM_ID bans them or IP bans them Group 3. Such a ridiculously small percentage of the player population that if it wasn't for the fact they distribute their cheats, you could easily ignore them. That is to say, if this was the only group of people we had to worry about cheating on servers, then cheating would be considered by most people as non-existent.
