by cheating and then going online, yes you CAN get sued(although it is unlikely, you are still breaking the law), no one cares if you dont go online. i would like to point out that you need to click agree to a screen that tells you to read this EVERY TIME YOU LOG ON, HOW DO YOU MISS IT?

(note this link might make a good sticky, even if it is not in the form of this post.)

Yeah but ST dosent really care. And since there really are no player mods in Ep. 1&2, there is no sure way to enforce these rules. I dont see this thread stopping anyone intent on cheating doing so.

[PSOFanatic124]

i think it's you that aren't legit!

[apocolypse-now]

At the end of the day, ST probably doesn't care who cheats or whatever, because they are the ones who get money every day. If people want to waste £6 to break the rules, its their problem.
Just out of curiosity, has ST ever prosecuteda anyone over 'rule-breaking'?

[cOoLdUdE]

Err, um, theres a cheat to reset ur serial/acees/HL causing.... NO PAY :O

[Schoichet]

i think at some point in the dream cast they did... and also, it wont stop someone intent on breaking the rules, but it might stop a new player who has herd so much about dupeing and wants to learn how, but does not know it is illegle, it is also to show people what they aggre to each time they go online
