Glossary Entry: Cheating
Definition
As you might expect, cheating refers to giving someone an unfair advantage in a game. This can be done using a cheat code, some sort of bot, or altering the game's code itself by using a hack or mod.
Nobody generally cares if someone cheats in a single player game, but cheating in multiplayer games is usually frowned upon and may result in the player being removed from the game.
