I would be willing to try a small game where passwords were availble. I personaly play to have phun. If a player wants to guess my password all they have to do is ask me. I'll give it to them. Cheating in any form destroys the challenge.

While those are true historical events, it brings to mind,
"Henry Stimson's famous adage "gentlemen don't read other gentlemen's mail"
That is the "Real" world. There is no place for it in a game.

I am sure neither of you feel it any form of cheatting is acceptable.

It is a bit distressing that a few people don't see that guessing a password (and then using it) is cheating. One hopes these are not one's neighbors. HOWEVER, what is crystal clear to everyone now from the poll results is that the vast majority of players DO consider that to be cheating. So, from this time forward, anyone who does that is, without any doubt or argument, a cheater. Does anyone disagree with that?

The next question is then, if most people consider it cheating, would they do it anyway?

I feeling sarcastic today.

The thing is, since this is a very explicit topic, everybody has their own different ideas of "Yes".
