Unpopular opinion...
Man, I wrote a whole WoT about this. Deleted it. Fuck the cheaters. I don't know why it's so hard to stop them. The kind of people that will DDoS a company for blocking them are the same ones that will cheat. No gold star for any honest players that DDoS, either. If there's a server problem or a bad patch that prevents me from playing my first thought isn't to DDoS the company and fuck up everyone else's game in a fit of petty revenge too. That said, it's sad that honest players are the only ones harmed after the cheat coders found their workaround so quickly.
