Any form of cheat makes the game boring to me. Sure you can start a shooting game with infinite life, all the guns, etc - but what is the point? Cheating takes the challenge out of a game - making it basically a game where you walk around enough and you win. I don't game just to walk from the starting point to the end.

No, and anyone that does use cheats for online games should be castrated and neutered so they cannot pass on their crappy-cheating-asshole-genes to others. :p

I never use cheats online, but sometimes cheats can be fun in single player (e.g. GTA 3: VC, getting heavy-duty guns and then shooting random people is fun). Or setting gravity levels to like 200 in CS, but that isn't cheating :)

I have played a couple of online games in the past using cheat codes... But, that was when everyone in the game used the same cheat code... no one used invincibility, but everyone used "fly" mode.

I haven't played online in a while but I don't like cheaters. Some folks are very, very good.

Cheaters suck, so do mean people.

Getting owned sucks, getting owned by a cheater makes me mad.

I tried using a Maphack on StarCraft for a little while, but I discovered I actually played WORSE that way because I was too busy watching what my enemy was doing.

Never used any for any other games, though i have been accused many times in Counter-Strike.
