#1 Good players(in any competition) are actually more likely to cheat than bad ones. Here's why.
#2 You may think that having the "talent" to win at high levels of competition makes it less likely that people would cheat.
#3 But this often works against people. Having talent tends to make people feel entitled.
#4 They feel they deserve to win more than anyone else. And when the game they play doesn't give them the luck they need.
#5 Or when they simply get outplayed and refuse to admit it. They resort to cheating.
#6 When people like "Todd rogers" and "billy Mitchell" where both exposed as video game cheaters this was one of the most common arguments used to try and defend them. And its no secret that better players make better cheaters.
#7 Imagine if I were to try and (for example) fake a speed-run for a game I didn't play or wasn't good at.
#8 I would have absolutely no idea if what I put together makes any sense or is even possible.
#9 Good players know that though. Good players know how to cheat because they know the game well.
#10 And people don't suspect good players to cheat because they are good. But if a bad player cheats than people will notice the difference in performance. "bad one moment. Good the next". Good players are suspected less.
#11 I hope that if you believed in this false idea that this has changed your mind. Have a great day:)
(and I tried to use "#" to identify sentences. It looks pretty weird, but I tried something new for my ramblings. Tell me if you like it or not. And what I could do to improve it)
