Does popflash.site have an AC? I didn't have a problem last time I tested it.

I think your server could check for several cvars that are only enabled for cheaters using some cheats, to auto-ban them. Though this precludes externals and some better internals.

Sorry, I edited my comment after you asked. We don't have an "anti-cheat" in the traditional sense, though I've developed a few solutions to curb cheating in the past. Fortunately, it's not really a problem I've had to solve because I only offer scrimmages these days, meaning you choose who you play with. If I were to offer matchmaking, I'd be more liable to prevent cheaters from using the platform since I would be matching up people to play with.

Since my users are mostly just playing friends I don't really have rampant cheater problems like other services.

Yeah, that's understandable. If one of my friends were cheating I think it would be obvious what to do.
