What was there, if anything worse than cheating?
In the VT chat: 50+ hardcore no-lifers have been grinding Jebus Cross over and over for more than a year. Why is it worse? Let me try to articulate: perfectly adequate players are susceptible to this infection; there is a small percentage who possess immunity, but the majority, once they get hooked, are lost to normal games forever; usually, players who engage in this nonsense are either those who have no prospects in normal play (lack intelligence, too lazy to learn, etc.) or newcomers who want to try everything themselves — it’s also common here for already established players, who have shown good results and have strong potential, to be irretrievably lost.

In my opinion, Jebus Cross no-lifing is far more dangerous than SMKA no-lifing: from the latter, we have managed to gradually wean off a considerable number of players, both on HeroesWorld and HeroesPort; from the former, as far as I can recall, no one has yet been cured (though the time since the infection was detected isn’t that long, I have strong doubts that a cure will ever be found).

PS. My apologies to the moderators for using the word "no-lifer" and its derivatives, but please note that this term has long and firmly established itself in the Heroes community lexicon, denoting a sufficiently broad concept (phenomenon), to explain the essence of which without using the said word would, I believe, require at least half a page of text.
