Out of interest, what would you class as a 'cheating score' in an 18 hole Tour mode match? 5 under, 10? 15?
I won a tournament one week with 24 under par on 18 holes on the old tour mode in Tiger 10, it was windy and fast greens. I didnt use a mouse, or matchsticks on my control pad or anything else. Would you have accused me of cheating when seeing the score?
if you admitted to being an edger to me in game I sure would of. As for getting scores like that, if I was you I wouldn't even want to play the game. That wouldn't be productive or fun for me. Most normal people like a challenge and competitive matches. In real life "pwning noobs" is not respectable or honorable no matter how you look at it. The difference is in real life you are not anonymous nor can you easily change and save face. There is no such thing as a "cheating score" but it would be suspicious if nothing more. And still a reason why most of the community would not even want to play with you.
See back in the old days of gaming, where millions were literally playing counterstrike. We had dedicated servers and admins who would regulate fair play themselves. If you were "too good" there was nothing morally wrong with telling you take a hike. Heck even in real life tournaments of all sorts some players are banned from competing because they are just "too good". For example Rock Steady DJ's were banned from the world championship DJ competition many times cause they were "too good". In the old pga tour pc games users could set limits to who could join their tournaments as well. If you were playing in a noob level tournament, that right there would show a severe lack of sportsmanship and respect fo the community, which again is suspicious if nothing more. It goes to your character on the whole.
I don't think people realize that the digital realm is just an extension of the physical. The same principles, and eventually, laws will apply. And noone is fooling anyone. You just as see through as you would be in real life for all the same reasons.
