This pretty much sums up what will happen to a companies game and reputation because of cheating and not using a better way to police it!
"The facts are that cheating is a major concern for online gamers; a study showed that
66 % of the participants complained about there being too many cheaters. And when it
is a problem for the players it becomes a problem for the developers and the publishers. It
is all in the brand. If a game gets a reputation for containing too many cheaters, players
will leave the game. In all likelihood, they will not buy expansion packs, they will
certainly not pay subscription fees and it is doubtful if they will return to the next
instalment of the game. The brand will lose value, and the companies behind the game
will lose money."
