{ Because I advocate acceptance of cheating people may perhaps think I like to cheat myself and may be asking if I ever cheated in online games or similar competition. The answer is: 100% NO, I don't see a slightest point in cheating -- I would cheat if I enjoyed it but there is completely zero value in doing it for me personally, so I never did and never even thought about it, I never even helped myself with a little cheat in legit playthroughs of singleplayer games, I think that's only for pussies and women and it would absolutely kill my joy of finishing the game, I usually even refuse to play games on non-hard difficulty. If I ever played online games, I did it for enjoyment of the play itself and many times for testing how good I can get, cheating would help me with neither. I only ever used cheats in "sandbox" plays of offline games like GTA, when I simply want to become god and rain havoc on the world, but this is absolutely standard and accepted even by normies, so not much point in even mentioning this. Think about the motivation behind cheating: online cheating is NEVER done for satisfying a need of accomplishment, the cheater himself KNOWS he didn't legitimately achieve the victory, i.e. cheating is done for other reasons -- sometimes lighthearted trolling and fun (which actually is probably a cool reason), but most often the reason is following: ATTENTION. Online cheater cheats not to feel accomplishment but to gain attention, fame, followers, to masturbate his egoism and/or to mine some money, power and other advantages from the online attention capital. It's basically pure capitalism: he sees an opportunity for profit, it's like business, and so he simply grabs it -- it doesn't even matter what the business in question is, it's more of seeing a hole in the market, potential for abuse, a place to be filled, like seeing money on the ground: he simply can't leave it lying there, for him there is no ethics or shame, just a "stupidity of not taking an opportunity". Hopefully it's clear I'm not in a slightest interested in behaving like a cretin capitalist monkey, and that I find it quite filthy, retarded, unethical and good only for Americans maybe, hence it should be pretty clear why I am not interested in cheating. However I still think the option to cheat should be open, so that people can decide themselves whether to cheat or not. ~drummyfish }

## Funny Instances Of Cheating
|
||||
|
||||
As much as people claim to be absolutely disgusted by cheating, they actually love it and when it happens, it's always much more [entertaining](fun.md) than the sport itself -- spectators love it, media love it, Internet loves it, it makes for fun conversations, it's something exciting and fresh in otherwise boring sports. Here are some cases:
|
||||
|
||||
- One of the funnies cases was the Spanish basketball team at the 2000 Paralympic games pretending to be "[retarded](retard.md)", i.e. to have an abnormally low [IQ](iq.md), solely so that they could partake in Paralympics, when in fact they were of normal intelligence (i.e. normal retards like most other people).
|
||||
- [Anal beads](anal_bead.md) in [chess](chess.md): there was a famous drama around the match between Carlsen and Niemann that was very suspiciously won by Niemann and many theorized he could have been using a remotely operated vibrating anal bead to receive external evaluate of the game by a chess engine.
|
||||
- So called "mechanical" and/or "technological" doping, most notably the use of hidden electromotors in cycling that started to appear recently -- yes, people have actually been caught using them, it is a thing. There are many controversies around specific running shoes, swimsuits, curling brooms etc., worth digging into.
|
||||
- Cycling is in fact a goldmine of hilarious cheating scandals, for example the runners paid some spectators to throw pins under the wheels of their opponents, or there was a guy who, at the top of a hill, was handed a "water" bottle by his team, which was in fact filled by lead that subsequently dragged him down the hill faster. Some cyclists just shamelessly let themselves be dragged by the team's support car when they're handing them the water bottle, regardless of several cameras filming them at any given moment.
|
||||
- Rosie Ruiz (a [woman](woman.md)) was a "marathon runner" who used to take rides during the run, during the Boston Marathon she simply took the subway :D
|
||||
- TV shows: In [1984](1984.md) Michael Larson, a kind of absolute autist, obsessively watched some sort of crappy quiz show that involved pressing buttons and he observed a pattern in what should have been a [random](randomness.md) blinking of lights or something, then he went on the show and with the knowledge absolutely destroyed it, won over $100K and created one of the biggest scandals in TV history. In 2001 Charles Ingram cheated his way to winning the *Who Wants to Be a Millionaire* by letting his wife in the audience cough on correct answers. Etcetc.
