By their definition, running a bot or hacking your character is just another valid "Play style".
And, by your definition, playing any difficulty other than what YOU have prescribed is "invalid."
God complex much?
I suck and I play Master. No Normal for me. No Torment for me yet, but soon. Who gives a fuck? If people really want to sacrifice the Torment-specific items just to get more of the other items why does it bother you so much? They *are* making a tradeoff, you know.
It's really telling that you'd equate running Normal with botting, though. No one here is trying to defend botting because that's clearly against the ToS and EULA. I would hope that the ToS and EULA don't dictate what difficulty any person chooses to play on though. That's way too big brother for me.
People should be running a difficulty commensurate with their current gear, and if saying that means I have a god complex...well the, go build a church to me.
