It is the sign of great intellect to admit that sometimes we don't actually know it all. In this week's Devil's Advocate, we take a further look into game add-ons with some new ideas and thoughts gleaned from you, our readers. Check it out and then add your voice to the comments.
The Devil’s Advocate piece on add-ons was not one of my favorite things to write. In the process of writing it, I began contradicting myself so badly that I scrapped my original draft and reworked my writing. Instead of forming a dissenting opinion or anything resembling coherence, I felt confused by my attempts to discuss add-ons.

Comments
Maybe re-read the last comments from your initial love-fest for add-ons. We, the majority of gamers, do not like them. They destory game balance, and open doors to hackers in-game and into your personal privacy. Not to mention the privacy info of all the fellow gamers you play with when you allow them into your game.
No, I give these add-on makers no credit. I would give them credit if they went to the game developers themselves, showed them their apps and asked for a job. Otherwise, they are just keyloggers sitting in trojan horses with pink bows on top.
Wow, you've had add-ons that have done that to you? Sorry to hear
Personally when I started playing would I didn't use any but I always thought to myself with how much buttons wow had at the time and some of the bars was like to the extreme right of the screen, I had always wish if I could move those bars and shrink them.. Then I discovered add-ons and its like a whole new experience and the game become more personalized to how I like it set up, now I find it hard if games don't allow me to resize and move stuff around its a turn off...
Self-pity imprisons us in the walls of our own self-absorption. The whole world shrinks down to the size of our problem, and the more we dwell on it, the smaller we are and the larger the problem seems to grow.
