Because, how else are these clueless devs going to lie to their players and tell them they addressed cheating ?

I continue to call bullshit on these 'devs' statements about the amount of cheaters using Linux. Their numbers sound comically inflated.

While I think the Steam Machine will definitely help, I still maintain that we are only ONE Crowdstrike situation away from cleansing all these clown rootkits off the face of the earth.
