This portrays a very negative view of the players of this game, namely that if there's a way to cheat, they will cheat.
If this was involved in contests for money it would be understandable that strict measures are required. But my friends and I play this for fun, and I assume the vast majority of other players do so as well. The move mechanics in the game make movement errors very easy to make and when they happen, it's quite annoying. I can't speak for the rest of the player community, but when I'm annoyed I'm not having fun. |
You asked why and that's why...... what it "portrays" is reality for a lot of players
If is it's true that " my friends and I play this for fun" then
why are you playing full security PBEM ?? "Fun" players use basic security that does not require PW's and with basic you can take back moves just like a regular game.
