How noble of you.

For me you're a cheater, you can come up with all kind of justifications, it won't change
If a cheater is defined as per a person who the administrator chooses has broken the game rules, then, most players are cheaters. We can find a round where a multihunter (like Assassin) has decided something completely haywired, extrapolate it a little, and wind up with the fact that at some point everyone's been a cheater due to abuse of the fabled support planet rule. At best, this incident should teach to finally abolish that piece of rules the person named came up with simply to use his power attack a party playing the game he disliked in favour of his friends - because that's why the rule was implemented, nothing more, nothing less, and ever since it's been abused to call out cheats on more or less irrational logic.

We don't have the same mentality about playing games that's all.
Games aren't so different from real life as per analogy. Competition tends to encourage parties involved to come up with new, creative tactics to beat their opposition. If we strive to destroy anything that might create a new idea, we'll be stuck in the same status quo ad infinium, and perhaps, Makhil, in round 139, when you're the only player playing the game it has been for a hundred and twenty rounds (emphasis), you've got a fair chance of winning.
