For css we usually go to hlstats, check the kpd ratio and headshot ratio.. if its like 20 to 1 then that is in our eyes a cheater. On tf2 that is harder unless he's playing sniper. Extra addons like kigens for example help too, but those things should really be build in.
I think in the end we will wind up with the same amount as CSS.. CSS is still running but i get admin calls for that on a daily basis.. not funny.
