Geez a cheaters base would probably refer to people duping which is the common way to exploit dayZ. I'm sure your aware of the net switch/lag switch . People making metal watchtowers in a box. People duplicating whole characters. People duplicating bags. Which makes the dupers almost impossible to raid, impossible to defend against and potentially ruins the hour investment of legitimate players.

There are groups dedicated to duping in DayZ on Facebook. People sell their dupe techniques.

Dupers literally ruin entire servers and force users to community in attempt to play a fair game not because you cant dupe but because there is moderation.
