I've only recently jumped into the non-main lobby part of EM and I see so many reports for cheating and talking of people doing so. How common is it? I see some peoples records are just ridiculous and I wonder how possible that even is when youre still so dependent on other people. Then i look at my record and cry. Every night. Pass the napkins please.

There is no burden of proof requirement.

You can't regard trophies as meaningless pixels one day then boast about having trophies and put people down for not having one the next.

I mean, the burden of proof requirements to actually go after someone for cheating are pathetically low, it's legitimately more surprising to me that there hasn't been an accusation thread for every single major user

It was not my intention to be humorous in that cheating is a valid, potential source of enjoyment for people.

This is actually correct, I didn't think so many people were in denial.

On the contrary, it's a lot of fun.

Sane people don't cheat at internet ruby mafia for a badge of pixels.
I was implying ones that weren't caught for it. (Or had to stay banned for a long period of time, in calvins case.) Also, Anthony never actually role shared.

I think you should give the community a little credit where credit is due. This is a game that requires lying, and thus pathological liars and cheaters are drawn to it. This is also a game that requires catching liars, and I think most of the time the people who make pastebins are pretty spot on with it.
Competition is still fun and plenty of legit players win trophies. But the nature of the game has changed and as tech has gotten better, cheating has gotten easier. Not to mention less people dedicated to catching cheaters and no lucid around to fix broken technical issues.
