They'll go to a game where they can play. Sadly, that's a surprisingly large number of players. So, there is some degree of tolerance so that the monthly player count will remain high. It's a not obvious business choice. 300,000 people play OMP weekly, mind blowing number to me. It's possible that half the players cheat in some way (even if it's simply hacking to get all cars FU). Take all them away and match making will suck.

I kinda understand that logic, but I’d still rather see a level playing field for everyone. The problem with tolerating cheats is that it is a slippery slope which eventually leads to the demise of the whole game.
