BioWare, with respect, this img/link trick business isn't that simple. (worthy wall of text)

I was under the impression that cheating was not allowed and those caught cheating would be disqualified. Has BioWare staff posted anything to the contrary? The rules state that if you use an exploit in a game (something that doesn't effect this BioWare Bazaar thing at all) that you get disqualified, so why wouldn't the same be true for people cheating in the actual competition?



I hope they don't compromise on this at all. They should disqualify those who cheated. I don't care if everyone else is doing it, that does not make it okay. I was sickened that so many people were openly admitting to cheating on the forums. I realized I wouldn't stand a chance at winning anything in the auction, but I didn't go run off the cliff with the rest of the sheep just to win something. Even when this whole thing is done and over with, at least I'll know that I didn't sell my integrity for a material object.



For those of you missing why the "non-disruptive" cheating is so wrong - it is removing that persons rights to chose whether to click or not. I don't care if you're contributing to the conversation if you're taking advantage of me while doing it.

The problem is that the same 10 or 12 people that keep complaining in these threads seem to think that cheating is ok if other people cheat as well, despite the fact that it doesn't work that way in any other law, game, contest or sport.

According to their logic if you cheat with someone else than it isn't immoral at all! Anyone wanna go kill some children with me, if we all do it then there is nothing wrong with it!

Its not a question of whether or not it was cheating, the problem is when we asked for clarification on the issue whether it was or not, they waited several days before bothering to tell anyone that it was.

If its so apparently obvious that this was a form of cheating, why couldn't they simply say this as soon as the method began being discussed on the forums?

A lot of us were thinking along the lines of "If this was cheating they would have said something by now"
