Stop screaming about cheater and Give feedback/way how to stop them!

We hate cheaters, it ruins the game, but we're adult, not cry babies, so we should stop screaming & crying about the cheaters and give feedback/way to the developer how to stop them!

I see two major cheats:

1. Movement cheat where player "zip" from one place to another place in an abnormal way.

    This cheat is easy to detect and ban since player coordinate is recorded and reported to the server, so any abnormal zip should be easy to detect and ban. A developer just needs to define what is consider possible movement and what is consider abnormal then give warning/ban whatever consider abnormal.

2. Aimbot cheat where player always hit headshot even on crazy distance or during crazy movement.

    This cheat is a little tricky to detect since we need to distinguish if this's a cheat or really good player.

    Dev can define what is considered "normal" accuracy of a new player (which usually < 60%) or certain distance with certain gun recoil.

For example:

if a new player, who account is brand new, never play apex before, but suddenly able to register 95% accuracy in their first few matches, we can warn/ban them.

If normal accuracy for 500 meters with gun x is around 50%, but this new guy can hit 90%, we can warn/ban them as well.

I open this thread especially to discuss this. Go ahead and show some brains.
