    ETHICS- Part of the game, or irrelevant?

    Since our last thread that invovled this subject seems to have offended someone, i thought i would see how everyone felt on this subject. Is honor,or ethics, a reasonable expectation from ourselves, or should it be anything goes?

    Shouldn't honor walk together with ethics? I don't remember reading the thread so I'm sorry if my input is not the right one.

    I believe what one does behind the facade of a pixelated character, or when no one is looking, reflects the true nature of that individual. So ethics is a must in all aspects of life.

    I am someone that holds myself to a high standard when it comes to everything that I chose to do. Those that state that "this is just a game" when justifying the decisions they've made, obviously don't feel as I do.

    Ethics or not, cheating takes away the fun of the game, not just for your enemies but also for yourself. To me even an all gold army would take the fun away from the game. It was no different when we were 10 using Idkfa and iddqd. What's the fun in a game that is no longer a challenge.

    Angry The boosts are invisible.

    People never cease to amaze me.

    Have you ever heard phrases similar to these?
    I want it, and you got one, so why can't I have two?
    The world owes me.
    You had 2,000 of them, and all I needed was 100.
    I'll do anything, except working, to get the things I want.
    It costs too much, and stealing it was so easy.
    If you don't get caught, you didn't do anything.

    On second thought, companies never cease to amaze me, either.
    Oh yeah, the boosts are there, they're just "invisible".

    No clip, god mod, and all ammo, completely pointless to then follow the story line. I HATE NOCLIP! But same principal.

    At the end of the day, we are left with our ethics and morals. Fictional armies don't matter. A win/loss record doesn't matter. If you compromise them for something meaningless, you will also compromise them when something is meaningful. Give someone a choice between right and wrong when the consequences and benefits seem small and you'll find out what they'll do when they're faced with REAL ethical/moral decisions.

    How poetic is it we are talking ethics about players in a game where the owner has repeatedly demonstrated they have none.
