When I first started playing CS, I could spot hackers relatively easily. Of course I can do it better now, but I don't believe much skill is required to spot hackers. I think there must be an understanding of the gameplay first, and then the unbias view of evidence over a period of time. The amount of evidence and the amount of time given to be sure the hacker is indeed hacking is subjective and may differ from situation to situation.

Aimbots I'd classify as skill-less in determining that the hacker is aimbotting. The problem admins seem to have with situations like these are "OMGWTF he headshotted me with a TMP in 5 hits from 100 yards in half a second, he has to be hacking! OMG did you see that wall he shot at after you turned the corner in front of him? Totally HACKS!" and then the "hacker" dies in a gun battle where the "hacker" used a full clip that missed every shot and the "hacker" dies. The admin's bias simply places that death as irrelevant/useless/an exception/malfunction of the aimbot, or otherwise ignores any evidence that suggests the "hacker" is not hacking.

If the admin's bias wants to find hacks, he will. I agree these admins shouldn't be admin for this reason, but admins aren't a major concern at the moment, seeing as how no one is playing anyway.

Maybe admins got tired of getting killed by people better than them, banned everyone and no one can join because they're banned? Bahaha

I believe a lack of players in the server is due to the following:
-CS and CS:S split players in half, with the majority playing CS (perhaps due to CS:S being so resource intensive)
-PDGaming has no one in it (who would join an empty server?)
-PDGaming is playing random maps all the time and has end-of-map voting (until/unless cs_militia is far less resource intensive, de_dust2 ONLY should be played; no map voting enabled)
-Lag spikes (disable stats if this is indeed causing them)

..and of course there is only a multitude of other games to be playing instead of CS:S. With PS3 on the horizon, I don't expect it to get any better.
