I think the "problem" seems to be that there was a HUGE (i didnt realize until the forum questions started) number of players using PVE cheats, assuming it was "undetectable"...
Suddenly...apparetly after years of "normal use", EA finaly cracked down on them...without warning and in large numbers...
I am not defending cheating...BUT i guess it would have been better if this policy had been enforced since earlier in the process...
It may be that until recently various cheats haven't been detectable. Hopefully EA/CG are constantly improving their cheat detection methods and so those using more advanced hacks, and who have been using them for a while, are suddenly being caught out. A bit like the sudden wave of bans for doping in sport once they could finally detect EPO in the early 2010s.
Regardless of how long they've been cheating it's good they get caught eventually. If they've sunk money into accounts then so much the better.
