Hi Thecla,
I never expected to respond so soon, but then again I didn't expect anyone to respond to my post this quickly either. Thank you very much for taking the time to send such an extensive reply.

Well, malach, I'm afraid even as far as Diablo goes, your post is about 7 years late to this topic.

I believe that you overlooked an important thought with this statement. For you, who might very well have been involved in the game for seven years, such a discussion might be old hat, but I have only been fooling with the game for a few months. I am a much more serious lurker than I am a player, and I noticed that Diablo I (like Wiz 8) still attracts many new players. This says much for the quality of the game, but it also means that for many of the questions, that were discussed and faced seven years ago, are just as new today as they were then. There still exist many live sites discussing strategy and tactics for Diablo, but there are very few sites if any that address ethical situations in Diablo gameplay or multiplayer gameplay in general. With the advent of MMORP's this absense has become even more pronounced. What better place than an experienced multiplayer game site to conduct these kinds of discussions, even if the only purpose is just to educate and inform rather than debate.

If you won't mind Thecla, I would like to further explore my first question. I propose the following hypothetical scenerio.

I am a level 22 Mage. Along the way I make friends with a group of players who are lvl 45 to 50. Maybe i joined a guild? Maybe I just have a winning personality(though it doesn't often seem so)? I explain to them that I may not be playing the game to much longer, but I would like to visit Hell/Hell. In order for me to do so, enough experience has to be added to my character to bring him up to at least lvl 30. In order that I survive my visit, even with my powerful guardians, I am twinked out with the best possible equipment. Possibly I am even supplied supplied with some hacked armor (HPOW) to make me even more invulerable. I have a very nice visit, eat lots of good monster meat supplied by compratriots and return to town. I then return all the items I was twinked with, destroy the HPOW, leave the game, and return my experience to the level it was before I travelled through H/H.

I would be very greatful, if you would explain to me why this might be considered cheating.

I agree that ifa stranger asked me for a knife, it would behoove me to be careful, as he might wish to cut my throat. Then again, he just might want to cut his food
