Idk. I bet everyone at least once has done something in "cheating" form. Like xfering nps, doing dailies more than once on other accounts, making other people play your games for you, etc.

monophyte doesn't cheat.
o____0
fb2600's account was bought, not the account or items but the account as a shell was bought.
just saying that now cos he self iced. Don't really think he would care. xD




However, I think that most people "cheat" that are over the age of 15-16 probably. Most everyone I know who plays including more "well known" people I know at least let other people on their account for avatars and crap.

I been np-generatin' when I was 14, and I was an awful late bloomer. Kids aren't nice these days, don't give them credit.
I've got a 14-year-old making hacks for an online game I play. Darn brats.

Oh, and on topic : 82%. The rest either don't give a shit or they're six-years-old.

Any cheating
>75%
I am pretty sure many people do low level cheating, like make more accounts to make nps.  

ABing/SSing
<5%
I don't think the majority of the people know that ABers or SSers exist,  it took me a year to actually start looking how to cheat.

I think this is about right. I pretty much cheated with multiple accounts before, or referring myself (back in the days). However I only found out about SSing and Scoresending last year, and I've been over 8 years on neo. So yeah, unless you look for it you won't go cheating that quickly.

i'd say roughly 40%, only males over 14/15 cheats and not 100% of them either. The rest of the players are kids and girls who really arent into cheating generally. Then theres the adults who play during work. Adults make up a big factor of online gaming considering sites like yahoo games and pogo have more users than wow.

Doesn't make "only males" any less wrong, though, does it?

So your post was internally inconsistent, as well as factually inaccurate?
Good to know.

internally inconsistent? The consistency is there apart from the location and proper use of terms used to estimate the percentage of cheaters. Just because you happen to misinterpret the meaning of what was stated does not mean the message I tried to convey was incorrect in its entirety. On a side note, factual accuracies are thrown out the window when terms such as roughly and generally are used.

I see nothing wrong with typing like an idiot on the forums as long as the message gets across but using SAT level sentence structure knowledge to nonchalantly bring down other forum users is quite immature and I would expect more from a member who clearly has respect and merit among the others on the forum.

Well that would be a "my bad" :p can't really blame me for not assuming that 40% of the general population here is female. Definitely outside the norm for internet forums.O_o

You say that as if the context improves your point.
In case you're unclear, it doesn't, since clearly your message didn't get across.

And yes, it is "your bad". And we can blame you, fully, for no one else pretended to examine the forum stats and use them to back up a point that was so fundamentally flawed you could only make it by typing like, in your own words, an idiot.

So you're blaming me for bringing up a point that is the norm on mostly every forum in existence? I had justified true belief to assume that this forum would be no different than the others but on this rare occasion it was in fact not. On top of that, the number of females on this forum does not necessarily constitute the majority of female "cheaters" on neopets either. Stop attempting to be such a condescending asshole already. If you're gonna start nit-picking fallacies at everyone's posts, specifically mine, it's just better to not post at all, seeing as how nothing your posting is of worth and this debate should have been deleted/moved to private messages long ago.



and yea Georgina, neopets is a sissy game :p

Since when did you become the arbiter of worthy posts?
I think you're just upset that someone didn't accept your opinion as fact from the off, and, in fact, showed you up to be a little bit of an idiot.

I mean, after all, if we're on the topic of useless posts, nearly everything you've said in this topic has been utter nonsense. I'm not sure you can get any more useless than that, although it has provided me with some entertainment.
