I don’t really know how else to word this.

The links may be long, but I am in support of the sentiment that at least tries to root cheaters out of multiplayer games. It’s a little more tolerable if you do whatever you want on your own time, provided that you don’t absolutely break the game, but streaming or competing for something and using cheats is where I draw the line. People make content and watch streamers to watch how they themselves actually play, even if they’re not too good at it. I’d actually rather see someone be bad at a game than openly cheat like this…
