I'm not talking about what is a bannable offense (since nothing is anymore), but what do you guys think is acceptable or not?

This is my opinion:

Missile glitching - Completely unacceptable: Even in a private lobby with friends. You gain an unfair advantage over people. You ruin games if you do it in public lobbies. I hate when I let a guy stay in my platinum lobby because they have really good equipment, and then they end up sucking terribly. It's so obvious they glitched for their stuff.

6/6/6/6/6 Characters - Unacceptable: It takes all the strategy out of building your character. I work hard trying to perfect builds, and it doesn't seem fair that other people just max out everything. I don't have a problem with giving your low level character more points than they should have, as long as it doesn't exceed what they would have at level 20 though.

Incendiary glitching - Acceptable:
Sure, it's pretty cheap, but it's so fun, and can even make bad characters actually fun to play. If I do the incendiary bug on the Vorcha engineer, I'm still no where near as good at let's say a TGI. Doing this glitch is no worse than using OP characters.

Uploading hacks from outside - Acceptable: I don't really do this in team games, because my teammates will either think I'm stupid for not being in the hack, or join me in running around outside of the hack. It's also fun to actually play the game how it was meant to be played. If my team is super terrible and they all die at the beginning of the wave though, there's no way I'm going to do a hack by myself. And in solo's, it's fine, because who is going to even know or care? You gotta make up for all the times you got terrible objectives that screwed you over, right?

Getting outside of the map - Sometimes Acceptable: If a teammate glitches outside of the map and just camps there, not helping out the team, reviving anyone, doing objectives, etc, that's unacceptable. If you glitch out of the map on wave 11, that's fine. I love getting outside hydra/dagger/giant/jade/reactor and jumping into extraction at the last second. It's fun getting to places that you know weren't supposed to be gotten to. You can see things from a neat perspective too.

I can't think of any other controversial ones. I know on PC players can choose their objectives, making speed runs and solo's a lot easier. I don't really know what to think of that. It removes the stupid luck component from the game, and basically just saves time. But it feels kind of unfair for us console players who have to try 10x more just to get the right objectives.

So, what do you guys think? And are there any big ones I missed?

Running with the pizza, you forgot that one.

Also, how do you hack without being in the circle...Ive seen BSN'ers do it, but whatever they do I don't recreate correctly...

Ah yes, running with the pizza. I'm not on PC so I'm not familiar with everything they do. It's near impossible to do on the console, so if someone could do it then props to them, let them do it. On PC it seems really cheap though, almost like a free objective. In a solo or a speedrun, it's fine I guess, but I wouldn't do it in a regular game. I don't have any problem with rolling with the pizza, or asari dodging with the pizza, or headbutting with the pizza, since it's not too OP.

For doing the hack outside the circle, I think you have to be host, and you just run outside of the hack as soon as you activate it.

Missile Glitch - Acceptable in private matches, unacceptable in public. If you want to exploit the missile glitch with friends I really don't care. Just don't ruin other people's game with that garbage.

All other glitches - Acceptable. The main two that seem to bother people are 6/6/6/6/6 and map glitching (hydra mostly) but to be honest it doesn't bother me. If bioware didn't care enough to fix those, why should I care if someone exploits them?

Activate the hack and get out of the hack circle ASAP. Some are extremely easy to do, others are very difficult depending on where the hack circle is in relation to where you have to be to activate the hack.

Lolz, I had 6/6/6/6/6 as a crutch for awhile, but now that I'm attempting more solos and trying to complete the aggravating Platinum solos, I promoted all of my classes to undo 6/6/6/6/6 possible characters. I agree with your uploading hacks from outside, because I did that today during my Huntress Platinum solo, and I think it saved my life twice. But I still died on Wave 10. I only go outside of maps on Private and with friends. Other than that, no. I won't lie that I have never missile glitched, but I haven't done that since July. I didn't do it since I started playing. I started it in July and ended it in July. I gotta say that I got so much better since then. And now, I just despise missile glitchers.

In my signature is a link about creative use of game mechanics. In it, you will find most of the acceptable glitches.

I'm okay with most of them except for the missile glitching. That one just drives me bananas, particularly when the MG winds up face down most of the match cause they can't duck. I'm typically okay with map jumping unless some leech just parks it out there and doesn't contribute. Now that's just annoying.

I disagree on the "uploading hacks from outside" because that defeats the whole purpose of the objective: to stay within a confined area and to survive in spite of all the incoming enemies and fire. Therefore, not acceptable. Kiting is not the same because it takes time and does not always work.

Also, I feel like "pizza running" is less cheesy than you might think, because you still have to do the job yourself, it gets only a little faster and easier.

I think the main question is, is running with the pizza cheating on PC?

If you haven't seen a PC player run with the pizza, then look it up.  Far more advantageous than running on consoles.

All of those are acceptable. Anything is acceptable. It is a game, after all. There can be no cheating because there is no official contest or competition. It's just a game, people play it to have fun. As long as they don't hack other people's profiles/accounts, anything is acceptable.

Anything that has to do with this game falls entirely outside of any rules/regulations etc. Game = private leisure activity.

Seen it, done it myself, hence my opinion on the matter. For me "carrying the pizza" means "to carry the pizza" and not
"to carry the pizza REALLY SLOWLY" but that is, of course, only my personal view and open for discussion.

Just because it's not competetive doesn't mean that people should be allowed to exploit the game and ruin other people's experience.

I think your list about covers my thoughts on the subject.  I'm proud to say that I've played this game since the start and I've never 66666 glitched and never missle glitched a single time.

Running with the pizza isn't that hard to do on consoles, it just requires a very precise coordination. And you forgot Warp/Incendiary cheese, which is acceptable imo, albeit really cheap.
Other than that, I agree with your list.

Cheating: editing files to gain advantage, missile glitching, 6/6/6/6/6 glitch, going outside of the map

Creative Use of Game Mechanics: all the other stuff.

Lolwut, even if all players agree to it?

On topic, Bathing your Antagonists with a Cheesy Overdose of Napalm is totally acceptable.

Missile glitching is only acceptable in private lobbies.
6/6/6/6/6 characters are unacceptable.
Clipping outside the map intentionally is only acceptable in private lobbies.
Everything else is Clever Use of Game Mechanics™
