What's the flipside, you want to play with cheaters?



Yes. Very much. The idea that you should be playing games online with strangers you'll never see again has done terrible things to computer games. The solution to cheaters is to tell them "hey, knock it off", because you know them socially. Or to use the same cheats (call them "mods") while playing with them. Or to be so much better that you win anyway. Any of those is better than what we have now.


Yah, that's just not fun to me. I have seen entire games become not playable due to cheats. I would opt in to a kernel module anytime
