I think one of the funniest things I have ever seen in a news group
are the Diablo cheaters trying to justify their actions. In particular
the ones who claim that their actions have no negative ramifications.

All I have to say to them is :

"Hello , my name is Reality  , have we met ?"

One of the most basic elements of any RPG is a value system. This
means that gold , armor , weapons and the like have great importance
as a character grows and gains experience. No , I am not going to go
on and analyse cheaters. This has been done to death. The point is
that once all the better items in Diablo were duped and made generally
available , a key element of the game was destroyed.

What's done is done and it is far too late to find a solution on
Battle.net. The people who claim that they cheat to help newbies are
as full of it as any of the cheaters. By giving a newbie high level
duped items you are not only propagating your cheating to yet another
player , but you are in essence removing the fun from the game for the
receiver.

It's a shame really because it would be nice to have a virtual game
community to go to for fun as well as to meet new people. I fear that
if hacking skills continue to outweigh gaming skills as the
determining factor in online game success, the concept will fail.

Places like Battle.net will be left to 13 year olds playing with
hacked characters and screaming mother jokes at each other while
serious gamers will seek more secure services or create closed
networks with Kali or similar software. All a result of cheating.

So .... cheat all you like .... you paid for the game , so do what you
like with it. Don't sit there however and try to justify yourself,
that is ludicrous. Not only are you dishonest but you have some
problem with logic as well. As far as duping making items valueless
and ruining the game , this is not my opinion. It is a fact that is
blatantly obvious to anyone with reasoning power. I for one resent the
fact that you have ruined a potentially fun thing for so many with
your thoughtlessness.
