I don't minimise the problem at all. For my part, as I said earlier, I wish the sim had never been cracked. However, I take exception to the high handedness of some posters saying that other players have no valid opinion.
I wish there were some toggle function between a 'fixed' online model and a moddable offline play. A moddable area of the sim might have provided an outlet for some of the more enthusiastic rivet counters and 'my little pony is porked' players. It might have done so without threatening the precious purity of the online dogfighters. (Purity of essence, anybody?)
It wasn't done, and we're where we are. I don't see the sky falling, however. There may be those who cheat. Well phuck 'em, I say. If you see one, ban them. In the meantime, I'd rather play against adults. It's not the end of the world if it is now possible for somebody to cheat. It's not great, but hey, don't play with cheaters.
cheers,
Ratsack
