Stop right there. There is nothing immoral about cheating, it is unethical. An immoral act is genocide against six million Jews, 500,000 Kurds, or a theistic oppressive regime's acts (like the Taliban).

An unethical act is cheating on your spelling test.

Calling cheating immoral in a fucking emulated Everquest server is saying Bush or Obama = Hitler.

Cheating is wrong on this server, and something to be avoided by players and punished by GMs. But to say that cheating on MMOs is immoral shows a remarkable lack of comprehension...of the English language and...well...what words mean.

Let's tone down the rhetoric/mudslinging and call cheating in P1999 what it is: an act that breaks the rules, and is by no means comparable to stealing ketchup packets from a restaurant.
