Modding settings.txt OK for stock PBW games?

[Fyron]

I don't think there are many cheaters out there at all... It is not that bad anyways. The settings data used for the actual game values is from the host mod's data files, not whatever a player would do to their own copy. Unless the host is processing the turn manually (which you can see from the news logs, as there is a different message when the host uploads a turn as opposed to PBW doing it automatically), there is nothing to worry about. A mod with wacky settings would have to be installed on PBW, and the PBW admins are quite willing to hunt down cheaters and such...
