"Quite literally meaningless" is a massive stretch. At the very least, you're opening yourself up to legal hilarity (it's not cost effective to pursue individual cheaters beyond terminating their accounts generally, but then again, bot makers have been sued) - the reason this is a thing is that you're ruining the service for others.
Oh and let's not forget, if people lose more than just the satisfaction of winning when someone steals their win with cheats I'd say they also have issues they should deal with.
Please don't presume to tell other people what they should and should not find important.
And if cybersecurity people can't learn without ruining other people's limited downtime, perhaps we need less cybersecurity people.
- Avamander 8y ago> At the very least, you're opening yourself up to legal hilarity So the only reason it is meaningful somehow is because it's somehow legally meaningful? That's both a bad argument for something to have irl consequences and I heavily doubt it's correct. > Please don't presume to tell other people what they should and should not find important. I didn't say what people should find important or not, it's how important some game in someone's life should be. I think what I was trying to say is that noone likes bad losers and sometimes losing is character-building. Better meet people who cheat you in a pretty meaningless game rather than in real life for the first time. > And if cybersecurity people can't learn without ruining other people's limited downtime You always have offline games. > perhaps we need less cybersecurity people Maybe we need less salty gamers.
