I think we are in a generation where people use the word "cheater" more than ever. It drives me crazy. Yes, people cheat. But not everyone who is substantially better than me is cheating. I can have 2 reactions when someone is better than me;

1. Try to figure out what strategy and skills they employed and learn from them.

2. Call them a cheater and learn nothing.

NOTE: In the process of step 1, cheating will often be exposed if there is any.

I have been called a cheater often in my life when I was actually being innovative within the rules set before me; and/or I was just very good at what I was doing because I practised like mad! If everyone jumps on the "cheater" band wagon, forward progress is haulted and we all lose.
