Contest of Mayors is a joke

It's not clear to me. What exactly are these pictures showing that proves cheating?

Look at the last screenshot I posted. What is unusual about that city?

Ok, the first six pictures I posted are all my city. I was just proudly showing off as to say "better than who". There is no cheating going on in those pictures. Now: thesims1depot found the smoking gun, here's what's wrong with this city. How many farmers markets and home appliance stores, etc. are you allowed? This person is cheating. Great catch sims1!

There will always be this element. It's not just games. Of course I know it's completely wrong and totally disapprove but if they did away with in app purchasing and required a monthly subscription to play it might lessen those who are playing for free and hacking. What really kills me is that they are hacking to be a top dog in a contest, in a game, in which there are nothing but virtual rewards. They aren't going to send you a $50 check in the mail. They must have some real issues with either self esteem maybe narcissistic personality, lol. Anyway, good catch. May those who use hacks get the ride of their life when a Trojan is unleashed and wrecks havoc.

I don't think this is about narcissism. There are people out there who refuse to spend even so much as a penny on a game, so what do they do? They steal. People who hack the CoM are doing that to steal the rewards so they can get all of the premium buildings and expand their cities without having to pay for any of it. Basically, they're people leeching off the game.
