That's how sociopathic some of these people are, at least when it comes to games. Not only would you ruin a game on all those who've paid money for it just for your own ends*, but that when banned you debase yourself just to play it again. That suggests a much wider problem to me anyway.

I'm fascinated by the impact of the tactic too! Though I've never understood why code couldn't be written to patch cheats out in the first place :? :|

* I understand messing about for five minutes and having a laugh, but some of these headers only play to cheat.

There was that story of an online “execution” where a character was pushed over a cliff in the game, killing it. The owner of the character had been banned.

Online games seem populated with morons like this, and I’ve avoided online play in Elite so far simply because I feel I need a little more armour and weaponary to give myself a fighting chance.
