Whether an exploit is considered a cheat, or all exploits are cheats, is a matter of widespread debate that varies between genres, games, and other factors. The distinction is important as it decides how the developers and community responds to the issue and to the players who exploit the issue. On the one hand exploits can be considered illegitimate cheats that the developers should address and exploiters should be banned, while on the other hand exploits can be considered simply part of the game. So its up to us to complain and the developers to decide whether people like this who use the exploit to rank faster then intended should be banned or forgiven My choice don't ban them but reset the weapon then patch the damn exploit and give them a warning saying do it again and you'll be nerfed
