I say no. There are no "rules" for this games therefore cheating can occur. Is it unethical, well that's a different questions, but no I don't think it's unethical either.

I have to agree but it seems as though using a glitch to get hundreds of Squidport tiles is acceptable but any glitch that is used to get a couple free donuts is frowned upon.

I was just explaining in another thread why I thought stackables weren't a "glitch." (That being that it's predictable. You can replicate the results in any town. A glitch to me is a weird thing that happens sometimes and you can't control it.)
But, the permanently possessed character some players got during Halloween was certainly a glitch, and allowed some people to get ridiculous amounts of goo (and the bonus donuts that came with it) and I don't think they were cheating by collecting all that goo.

I had that glitch, but I wasn't the only one to benefit. my neighbours did very well out of it. I even put it out on the Forum asking people to pm me if they wanted more gremlins. It's not cheating, its a game and its the luck of the draw if you get a good one. :D
