I think one has to be very careful about the word "cheating"
People throw it around a lot: "twinking is cheating, eth is cheating, aura flashing is cheating"
Now the Lounge is a place where cheats are banned
I think one should only use that particular word if you feel so strongly that you want the person banned for what they are doing
The word cheesy is very apt if you find these play methods annoying but not outright worthy of an instant ban, imo
I think it helps the people who use hacks a very great deal if we legit players throw the cheat word at each other. "Everyone cheats" is one of their favourite arguments and is a justification in the minds of many cheats
It also is brutal on the new player who has innocently moved items from one character to another to discover they're a cheat in the minds of some other people
I don't think people here have the same mental category for people who twink and people who drophack. So let's expand our vocabulary to use the proper words for what we want to describe B)
