I've noticed from recent higher-profile cheating cases that the trend is to share clips of gameplay, usually with some convincing clips mixed in with mundane ones, and users analyze the gameplay. While this makes sense as a direct means to spot cheated gameplay, still it makes things difficult if a cheater is trying particularly hard to conceal their cheats in the gameplay.
One common trend I've noticed, and one which cheaters simply can't seem to hide, is the Cheater Personality. Think back to recent examples and you'll find in every case someone who is either emo or emo-adjacent, usually egotistical, and uses a mask of aloofness to shield from sharing real thoughts and emotions.
While I'm sure this method of anticheat would have some false positives, i think that's simply a worthwhile sacrifice the community should make to ensure the integrity and fairness of competitive Team Fortress 2, thank you.
New anticheat method?

logically this makes perfect sense, cheating is inherently an antisocial practice so its not unreasonable to see other antisocial tendencies in people who cheat. add in a general lack of social awareness that is decently rampant in online communities and you have a perfect recipe for the Cheater Personality. excellent analysis.

seems like a win win, you ban them and either they're cheaters, or they actually do care and had the cringe emo aesthetic which should be bannable on its own
