Wow, is it hot in here or what?
This is my personal view and the BlackSheep Squadron view on this server allowing hacks matter.
I hate cheats. Usually, a cheat means an unfair advantage one player has over another. I have never cheated in C4, and my intention is to keep it that way. I do have a sympathetic view to reveal later, though.
I think that Rotor 6 makes a strong point when he communicates that if a server allows hacks and or cheats (things that give a player an unfair advantage over another player), who knows if that hack and cheat wont be used in a server that doesn't allow hacks or cheats? This means that a player can use hacks and cheats in another server. For approval, that player is a NO GO!
However, if it is possible that a server allows hacks and cheats and all players have access to all these hacks and cheats, that puts every player on an equal playing level, and it appears to be OK. If any players don't agree with that server allowing these hacks and cheats, let that player stay away from that server, while it is allowing cheats. As said by GarretJax, some players like using cheats, and that attractiveness is drawing players and populating servers. That can be a good thing, if by some means we can get them to be honest no hack and no cheat players, if only for just periods of play at a time. Also, it's just freakin' fun for the players who like using the hacks and cheats against each other.
As a matter of the rule of fairplay, the BlackSheep Squadron does not condone cheating (unfair advantages in gameplay). Our squadron leader, =BsS=Haze, has always disapproved of cheating in C4, he and our squadron members abide by the rule of fairplay gaming, and we will remain a promoter of fairplay gaming.
