Not where I come from.  Looking for holes to exploit may not be
exactly cheating, but it's certainly not honorable and there's ZERO
"skill" involved, unless you consider downloading a file to be a
skill.

can run rings around them.  Why do you think there are so few Quake/QW
servers left, anyway?  Answer: who wants to waste a server on a bunch
of cheating lowlifes?
