Really don't feel it should be up to XWIS to ban cheaters when there's quite a few different opinions on what's actually considered cheating (clearscope, etc).

I'd recommend something like a DNSBL, where known cheaters' serial hashes are blacklisted. This would provide server owners with a little more freedom to decide who's playing on their servers while helping to prevent cheating.

Nightma and myself already suggested something like a blacklist (read global banlist) with NR and BR support in the serverowners forum. Aside from technical difficulties, there will allways be the problems like who should be able to put in those bans. The succes of something like this will greatly depend on the willingness of serverowners to actually support and turn on such a feature.

Just look at renguard. There are still far too many people not willing to use it on their servers or clients. Renguard would be far more succesfull if everybody just put their servers to full renguard. I have been playing on a server that was allways full renguard and we never had any cheater problems. Allthough I have to say this was before the renguard bypasses were made. I still believe the majority of cheaters are people that don't know how to bypass renguard.
