I really hate this "just a game" argument though; to you, the game may be just a game, but others may make money out of it or put a lot of time and effort in playing, supporting or improving it, making it something more to them. Compare it to art for example. Some people attach a lot of value to it, I personally would not want to own most of it even if it was given to me for free. That does not mean that I am going to say to an artist showing his work "hey, it's just art!". Imo, that would be rather disrespectful. I think saying "it's just a game" about anyone who attaches value to games is pretty much the same thing.

I'm not saying games aren't important to me or anyone else, and I'm sure quite a few people here including myself have spent months, in some cases years tweaking and perfecting the game client/server to our ideal vision of what we want the game to be. Not to mention the ridiculous amounts of money server owners dish out for hosting.
All I meant by "it's just a game" is that if tomorrow I was suddenly unable to play my favorite games it would definitely suck, but it would by no means screw up my life. Hell, it might even have a positive impact for me.
Either way, whether it's a game or something else, people need to learn to control themselves.

Then say that, say that violence is never a solution, don't say it's just a game. Even if this would be true then still we can agree that cheating is aimed at ruining other peoples fun and thus in itself wrong as well, right?
Of course 2 wrongs don't make a right.
