Its not an issue for me because I never fly on Hyper Lobby Open Dogfight Servers…when I do fly with others its with a few people who I know in the “real world” on a peer to peer basis – so unfairness, dishonesty and cheating aren’t an issue…I don’t have to worry about cheating, I don’t have to worry about bad sportsmanship, bad language or name-calling on teamspeak or stupid comments in the chat line…I can just enjoy it in the company of friends!
The point I was trying to make is that if online cheating is a problem…its not the fault of third party modifications, it’s the fault of people who are using them in in-appropriate situations – and that can only be changed either by stronger sever administration, password only or subscription based servers or by flying with people you know.
As long as you fly with anonymous people in a dogfight server where a “win at all costs” stat driven mentality prevails then cheating or bad sportsmanship is something that will concern you…and that is something that has existed long before the development of the current, third party mods.
