Is Rapid Fire Technically Cheating?

I'm curious what people think of things like "buff-bots" in MMORPGs, or f.ex. UI add-ons for World of Warcraft that are not technically cheating, but definitely give the player an advantage over others who don't use them.

Exactly its a gained advantage which I classify as cheating. Anyhow its great to hear peoples opinions

I use rapid fire and I still suck in that game massively. Compare your and my score. So for me - no, I do not consider autofire as cheating.

I'd say it is technically cheating. But in the context of the SuperLeague it's not cheating because we agreed to allow it (except for games that have it as powerup).

Since it helps preserving both our sinews and our gaming peripherals I think allowing rapidfire just makes the experience more pleasant for most participants.

Agree. I would not play some shooters if I would not be able to use autofire.
