I don't understand why people cheat so much in online games... yet in some games (with poor protection), almost everyone seems to cheat. Why? Its just a GAME... you play for FUN... unless its a tournament, and most of the time these are not that. And even there people should have the ability to either learn to play better or accept that they aren't that good... but stupid people who must win ruin it for everyone. I've never cheated in a online game and certainly don't plan to start anytime soon... even in games that ARE full of cheaters, like Netstorm (at least, before it died off level and disc hacking was common), SC and WC3 (where LOTS of people maphack... and a bunch of other disc hack...). I just won't... its not fun for you or anyone else... and there isn't a whole lot companies can do in many cases. Blizz, for example, has pretty much given up on stopping maphackers because its pretty much impossible... :(
