Valve will probably bait the workers with TF2 items or some crap like that.

Oh lovely.. Communism + Socialism with a little bit of Facism all roles online. Nice. However logistically quite stupid because there are MANY cheaters and even more VERY BAD behaved people online against a ratio of so-called "investigators". I would argue there are soo many bad behaved players in every game out there but they are are MUCH worse in FPSers. Good luck catching even 1% of them globally as for each "investigator" there are thousands of bad-blooded brat "lugan" kids out there.
