Not true. You have no idea how desperate these people are. They really buy cheats just to be able to play. I used to know a kid who keeps buying CS:GO so he can keep playing after being banned. He was at his 8th account, and still kept doing it, because he himself said he had no aim at all. He also used Xray and other cheats in Minecraft.These kids/people need real world punishments, forced to clean the neighbourhood & the ways they use to pay for games should be put on a blacklist so that they can no longer purchase online games. They never learn if they can just keep making new accounts/ buy access. (Edit: spelling mistake)
This further gets fueled by game key websites selling brand new games at discounted, sometimes half the retail price.
I still need to figure out what the fun is in cheating, but I think it's too abstract for a person that doesn't cheat to find out.
I think it differs per the individual but in my experience cheaters in video games are one or a combination of the following:
1. Sadistic
2. Low self esteem
3. Want to be the best
4. Low IQ
I think it has to do with having a feeling of power of control, and a real-life diminished sense of self worth. I surmise that the cheater probably has a life in which they feel powerless or such, and using hacks in a game like this gives them that feel of control and confidence.

yes they are "pwning the game". By ragequitting players. I'm telling you. Starts with frustrated noobs telling themselves everyone cheat so they should too. Or maybe they are wannabe hackers and see them advertised on shady sites they frequent. But the "Crackers" are the ones creating the hacks. They could be corrupt devs, anti western hackers or just frustrated noobs themselves with the know how. But the thousands using them are juset about ruining the matches for others, or feeling superior by pwning the game or raging others. The if I can't you can't either mentality.
The same selfish attitude you see most of the people with in this game have whether botting or not.
Which in turn, they believe they NEED to be the best, to compensate for their deficiencies.
And they live to wreck others good time, others who legitimately play, others who have legitimate aim and skills.
There's no place for it. It needs stamped out.
