5000 hackers out of roughly how many accounts? The number is mind boggling to me.

Or you could beat the campaign / get achievements with skill.

if they are only "suspending" and not perma-banning these cheaters, their ladder/accounts should be fully reset.

Altering the game is against the end user license. It doesnt matter what game mode you were in. If you are really that bad at this game, you could just use cheat codes instead of hacks.

Apparently some people also got banned for using macros.

They most likely only banned people who were using drop hacks and just suspended the map hackers for a few days

But to add I'm shocked its only 5k, I would think at least 100k

Actually, it wouldn't surprise me at all if there were only about 5k hackers, most people probably don't even know what a map hack is.

Edit: Of course, I could be wrong, I really have no idea what the real number is.

holy crap.. 300,000$ ..

think of how many of those players are going to buy the game again.

maybe blizzard will start creating and secretly distributing hacks of their own.

disappointing it's not over 9000.

None of the achievements are difficult enough that you would need to use hacks to get them.
