The world's easiest solution for cheaters

It's really quite simple:

1) STOP WHINGING ABOUT CHEATERS - we KNOW they piss everyone off

2) HOST YOUR OWN GAME, or join a squad that's got at least 1 member with the pc-power to host a game

3) ASK THEM TO STOP CHEATING, and tell them their score will be disregarded for that game

4) WARN THEM they'll be punted if they continue

5) PUNT THEIR SORRY ARSE out the door

If they don't come back after that, then so much the better.
If they come back in and don't cheat, then it's also worked.
If, however, they come in and persist with their cheating, then repeat steps 4 and 5.
If that still doesn't work and they come back in a 3rd time, and STILL they insist on cheating, then BAN THEM!!!

If all else fails, wait til the person is punted/banned, inform the other players you're setting up a PASSWORD GAME, then do so and close the public game.

If you're so paranoid about cheaters, then get ICQ or some other messenger service and only inform people you trust, before setting up a password game.

FINAL NOTE: I thought LW was supposed to be played by people who (at the very least) act like adults, and play in an adult environment, so stop whining like a bunch of kids and HAVE FUN, or uninstall the damn game and give the CD to someone who WILL.
