I'm not sure how I feel about the guy using my avatar and named Cpt_MacMillan...
The avatar is clearly Ghost and not MacMillan.
ANYWAYS, I think it should be punishable. Like some of you said, it isn't fair for stealth players. I'm tired of everyone having x-ray ghost busting GPS all the damn time when I'm perfectly capable of ghosting the entire remaining enemy team. You have people all the way across the map homing in on you like they can see into your soul, yet the people who don't cheat can't see you from 5 feet away (AKA STEALTH). Not only should it be against the rules to modify files to gain such advantages against stealth players or players in general, I think spectate mode needs a rework as well. If you are a stealth player and a clan is tired of you ghosting them, they will simply cheat and have one of their members spectate you as they give away your position via Teamspeak or whatever. I mean common. Give us stealth players a break. We respect you by not using a horse, by not being a kiting archer, and by having absolutely no real advantages against any other class other than stealth (being able to hit first and remain hidden). When you take that away we don't have much left to work with. I think spectate mode should be limited to teammates ONLY. Many will argue that this is just a game for fun, but we all know this is a very
competitive game for "fun" and that "fun" is severely crippled when players cheat and abuse game mechanics. A lot of the fun is in besting your opponents and helping your team win. It is hard to do that when every other player is using heart-monitor GPS radio coordinate x-ray vision bullshit. Go play single player if you want to win that badly.
