Ok so I know I shouldn't have done this but I figured what the hell. This guy I have had on my friends list for a few weeks hit me up a while ago and asked me to do something for him. He told me that he would give me his account info to recover his account. The reason he wanted to do this was, he wanted me to get him all of the single player achievements for Rainbow 6 Vegas 2. In return he would give me 1600 M$ points. So I said I would do it for him and to make sure I would get the points I changed his email and password so he couldnt just recover it back when I was done and I would get nothing. Well I got him all the achievements that I told him I would get an sure enough he gave me a code from a 1600 M$ point card. Now I have a question would any of you done the same? _________________ ______________________My Completed Games______________________

Nope it is dishonest and cheating and your going to burn in the fiery pits of hell for it. LOL actually I can't believe people do that I mean what is the point? Someone else gets you the points for the game for what? Bragging rights? If they play on live nobody is going to believe that someone who sucks so badly got all the points himself. And 1600 ms points? That isn't much of a trade for all the time you took to get those points for the guy. I just think it is sad really. Of course I have always enjoyed the satisfaction of a job well done. _________________

I don't know if you could consider them free because you have to do all the work of getting the achievement points, Unless you cheated those too.
Me personally I would not do this because gamerscore is meant to show something YOU accomplished not what you paid someone else to do.

I'm with rebel, it's completely dishonest and you should be ashamed, what would Bill Gates say. But honestly, i would do it also if it wasn't that difficult, it's like getting paid to play games, if he want's to cheat his points so what, it don't affect my life in any way, feel free. You know, it's just like robbing a bank, as long as you don't shoot anyone then it's fine _________________ Opinions are like arse holes, everybody has one and your's stinks.

I wasnt asking if you would pay someone to do it I was asking if you would do it for someone for points. I thought 1600 was fair it only took me 3 and a half hours to do it. Plus I helped like 3 of my friends with the co-op story for free and the terrorist hunts as well and I most likely would have helped him for free but he offered so I did it. _________________ ______________________My Completed Games______________________

Why not, if you are going to be playing online anyway you might as well get something for it.
Also it would depend on the person, I think it would take more trust on his end giving his account info to someone else. So sure, I would have done what you did, but I would not have done what he did unless it was someone I realy trusted not to screw me. _________________ "BUT YOUR HONOR,...GTA IV MADE ME DO IT!" http://www.coasttocoastam.com

What the hell do you mean by a muppet. Besides gamescore means shit anyway. It is just fun to get for me.
You asked if people would do the same so i gave my response.
Its fun for me to try and get as many points from games as well.
But i dont see where the fun is paying someone else to do it for them,,,thats not fun thats just lame..
I realize you were the one gettn paid and not the one paying for it so i guess you aint the muppet.But whoever you done it for is.
Thats my opinion. _________________
