At a glance (and only a glance), I think we are having a much better conversation here. 2+2 is great when you need info on something fast, but my God - I don't know how people can wade through all the crap for any of the more popular topics.

That's exactly what makes this such an entertaining thread. Our friend Noah Webster has used a black-and-white definition to describe something that's anything but. Everyone's sense of morality (or in plainer terms, right and wrong), differs in some way.
Don't forget, there are plenty of extremists out there who think poker -- and gambling in general -- is unethical, thereby making this discussion moot (at least in their eyes).

true, thats why i deleted my post, before i saw u quote it.
there's no right or wrong answers to this and i guess everyone's points are valid, some just make alot more sense to me than others. I am with TP, I draw the line with the rules, and I guess the only reason I had a question about this, was because I really don't know the specifics of the rules in this case.

But that still doesnt make sense (to me at least). What one site believes shouldnt influence whether or not something is ETHICAL... just if it is LEGAL. For example if Pokerstars allowed the use of PT but Full Tilt did not, it would be illegal to use on Full Tilt and legal to use on Pokerstars... however you could not say that it is ETHICAL to use on Pokerstars, yet NOT ETHICAL on Full Tilt.... it's one or the other.... UNLESS what you are saying is that you believe "following the rules" to be ethical, so you will follow them, (if they dont allow it for example) despite the fact that you don't think that using PT would be unethical (kind of hard to follow im sure lol)
Ok we're about to open the restaurant, time for me to go upstairs
