Well if people really go that far just to win "points" in a video game, you'd have to consider how much of a pathetic loser he really is. I mean sure, any one of us can do glitches too, but how many of us are going to attempt it? And what's the point? It doesn't give you any kind of "edge", nor do you actually win anything if you have the most points. Why can't people just play to have fun? I prefer not to know about glitches, cause there would be no point. I've been shown glitches in some games before, and the ones I've seen, you have to do a lot of a certain thing just to go inside a wall? Why waste the effort anyways? And yes, it does ruin the game. They may think they're all "cool" but they don't face the reality that they must really "fail in life" (as you guys say) and nobody likes them. I think cheaters should be snuffed out. But also there's somewhat of a thin line though, cause some game servers aren't built well, and these servers have LAG, serious LAG. Some of these people aren't even glitching at all, but it would seem that way on your screen cause of LAG (it's happend to me before on Socom 3, accused of glitching but on my end I wasn't)
I think it's up to the dev to create some kind of protocol, a program that runs in the background or something. Since everything runs in lines of code pretty much, why not make a sniffer program that automaticly seeks anybody that goes beyond the regular code? Like anybody inside the map has a code (eg: 000EAD) but the code outside the map, beyond the map limit walls is (eg: 0ZZZZZ) and that code changes on the person when the player crosses that wall on purpose and stays there for a certain amount of time and killing people. Then the server get's that PS3's (or whatever system you're on) Mac Address, bans it from the game, sends the info to PSN where it will also be banned and you cannot use anything online in your PS3 anymore. Which means you're screwed unless you buy another PS3, and have a zero tolerance plan. This would make a lot of these people think twice before they become a parasite to everybody else.
I dunno, just an idea though. That way, you would know if it was glitching or just a bad case of LAG.
