Is Backing-Up Chars Duping?

[Selby]

I used to get seriously involved in these discussions, but now basically if I don't use any trainers, only transfer found items between characters of my own, and don't exploit any serious flaws in the game's design\implementation, then I don't worry about it. I have backups of about 45 characters from over the last 10 years, my "main" characters and a ton of variants I have played up and didn't want to delete just for the memories.
