    Once a cheater, always a cheater. We’re speaking specifically about the CPU here. That CPU is a cheater. Fuck that CPU.

      Maybe they should try banning that disgusting and vile CPU instead of the innocent player.

          Maybe we should ban all CPUs because they can be used for cheating. What do you think?

      The CPU isn’t a cheater. The user of the CPU was the cheater. Banning a user who did not cheat is wrong. So no, do not fuck that CPU, fuck the anticheat system that gone too far.
