I am well aware of the fact that everyone can beat everyone.

But where is the fun in cheating - the fun for me is when you have the time take out 20minutes of your day and refresh at the right time to climb by the guy you are trying to out run. Maybe even refresh 2 or 3 times.

Although as it is now, it is really a good feeling when you snipe nr1 or 2 down to 5 or 6 when you know they cheat.

If someone is cheating then they should be reported to EA to take action.
I don't however accept that collusion is cheating, if that's what you're suggesting here.

Perhaps you misunderstand the premise of these shard chats.
No doubt there are variances but for me it's about understanding when other player's payouts occur and leaving them to it. For those you share a payout with, there's absolutely no reason why you couldn't agree to battle it out and may the best person win - thus in the spirit of PVP. In my experience you won't get ganged up on for fighting it out with people who share your same payout time. But it isn't cheating to agree to just not screw with other people's payouts, especially when they're hours away from your own.
