Alot of games have exploits or variaty that borders on the amazing, and as such they are part of gamming, doubly so in more comptetative circles, online gamming being one prime example.
Now is knowing about one and using it flat out cheating or simply the utilization of avaliable resources? should a fast person run slower to accomadate a slow person? is this even a remotly equvalent example?

no its not... if your using a method that requires any editing to the origional game files besides things that don't change the game itself Nocd hacks etc then your cheating.

But if you find an exploit within the game itself.. take umm diablo 1's dupe cheat for example.. then I don't consider it cheating aspecially online because your doing something within the game engine limits and your not changing any of the memory addresses to suit you...

So ingame bugs is alright but the moment you start using another program to help then its cheating.

I would still consider using/abusing bugs cheating, but that's just me. But chances are that you won't be able to use them in the next update so you might as well just learn to play the game

Yea, its a shame if you need to cheat to beat someone who is more skilled at a game.

Winners don't use drugs. lol.

hehe well sadly enough winners DO use drugs

*sounds of bongs rips being taken*

Huh? Wha? lol

Nooo, it was a reference to erm an old game... Smash T.V? or maybe M.E.R.C.S.

Gah I canny remember.

the old sf2 arcade game splash screen

Ah well there you go...

I don't think it's exactly cheating, but i think it's dishonest and unfair. When you're playing a game you're....playing...a....game. There is no honor in taking advantage of something that was never intended as part of it just so you have a better chance of winning. And as C_P said, you best learn to play without the exploit anyway, as it's not going to be there with the next patch.
