*nods* That's the kind I can forgive. Like I said, it's your gaming experience to do what you want with.
The only other kind I can tolerate is if it's subtle, or at the very least, that it doesn't directly affect the gaming experience of the other online gamers. I'll take this as an opportunity to confess, for example, that I used an Action Replay in
Pokemon Diamond to acquire pokemon excluded from the title, namely the Pear-specific species and the starters of the three previous generations. I don't use the ones I cheated to acquire though; I intentionally caught all females of all the species in question, the offspring of which are 100% legitimate.
And the only reason I did it that way was because it was cheaper to buy the Action Replay than all the other titles to trade them from and an extra DS with which to trade them. Something like that, or anything else that doesn't explicitly put any other gamers at a disadvantage, I think should be tolerated.
My basic rule of thumb: If I can't tell someone is hacking or has hacked, I don't accuse them of it. I know it happens; it's only when its right there being rubbed in my face that it seriously pisses me off.
But I was going to buy Counter-Strike: Source anyway.
