Consent is what's missing from these situations. Nothing illegal or major, but I don't think it's a good thing to cheat the people like this. An approach I liked was with some community Team Fortress 2 servers. They kept a constant minimum player count, say 10, and replaced the missing players with bots. However it was clear to see that they were bots, the TF2 client was explicit about this.
