So let me make sure I've got this straight- mods which "just" alter the game to make actions quicker and easier shouldn't be considered cheats?

That half-second isn't splitting hairs- it is a moment of vulnerability which is eliminated if you download an augmented HUD. Half a second can see a lull in the action punctuated by a surprise rocket to the face... a rocket which you could see coming and evadewith the mod, but couldn't without it.

At what point, do you think, does a mod to make things more convenient begin to give one player an edge over another? How much of an edge does it have to give that player before it is considered unfair?

but other people might have different reaction times or reflexes and thus might find the original way to be faster...

Funny how you'd have to have reaction times in the negative numbers to achieve that.

"Arms discourage and keep the invader and plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property. Horrid mischief would ensue were (the law-abiding) deprived of the use of them." - Thomas Paine

Remember, kids: illiteracy is cool. If you took the time to read this, you are clearly a loser who will never get laid. You've been warned.
