[QUOTE="Jemal, post: 6109666, member: 9026"] Hate to break it to you tunafish, but those 'tricks' aren't exactly new. Most of the people I know have just discovered them and wrote them off as loophole-cheese within an hour or so of learning the system. It's common to every gaming system, and very prevalent in point-based ones. We actually quite enjoy one-upping each other by seeing who can find the worst loopholes in a new system the quickest. I've got dozens of cheesey builds that I made for fun.. MAKING them is a great mental exercise and can be quite entertaining. The only thing I'd find remotely 'cringe worthy' about such 'tricks' is attempting to use them in a Real game. Mostly I just find that boring and unimaginative. Can =/= Should. I'd also like to point out that considering many of the characters I have purposefully kept toned-down tend to get me called a power gamer and god-awful twink, and the fact you seem proud that [B][U][I]I[/I][/U][/B] think your tricks are exploitative... well, that doesn't seem to bode well.
