Why Aren't My Cheater Reports Being Banned?

For the last 9 months, I've reported probably over a dozen blatant cheaters. I've submitted in-game reports, then followed up with player tickets where I take the painstaking trouble to record my game footage, capture my logs, and submit the ticket. Brazen, blatant, obvious cheaters.

And NOTHING is happening to them.

I have received no status updates on any of the cheaters I've been reporting in the last year. Just today, I went against a cheater who was teleporting, taking control of other players, and attempted took our game hostage. I've gone against COUNTLESS games like this, and I report these players and go through the extra effort to provide extra footage, and NOTHING happens. I never get any status updates, so I can only assume they're left to cause chaos and ruin games and nothing's being done about it.

This gets absolutely no reaction, no bans. I understand that the devs cannot talk about their cybersecurity measures but I feel ignored and I feel like the game health is uncared for as long as I'm being ignored and players like this are allowed to run rampant with no consequences.

Is anything being done about cheaters? If so, what gives on the radio silence on my ban reports for almost a year?

    I gave up on the reporting tbh..

    I dont think bhvr cares, its all about getting as much money from us, while spending as little as possible.

    DLC still sells, no matter how big the cheating gets.

    I won't name the company, but I know of one gaming company that does not adhere to any "Protect the guilty" policy. In fact, they outfight call cheaters out and force them to make a public apology.

    This shows that there is no legal reason not to tell us "Oh yeah, Johnny was banned for cheating. Thanks for reporting him." and yet, every single company has a policy against it.
