one thing i find really bizarre about the discussion of cheats such as jjprodigy, russ hamilton, etc. is the notion that somehow there should or could be meaningful penalties imposed on these people.
i think shane and huff's general idea that there really is no governing body in a position to impose such penalties is very well-taken, but i have to wonder about the chances of these people encountering so-called street justice at some point in the future.
i am by no means advocating something like this, but as a recreational player who believes or at least wants to believe in the rich history and integrity of the game, it's disappointing to think that these cheaters may go largely unpunished. what sort of "penalties" are realistic given the situation?
