Re: quick ethics checkup: are any of these cheating?
I think 2 is dodgy.
When we do something to tilt a player, the benefits of that play are also meant to be a reward (crack rockets with LSC and send someone off on tilt to get the rest of their stack). Someone's mental ability to handle bad beats should be a factor in their ability to win. If everyone had a player sit in while they were tilting, poker would become a tag game. That said, online poker is not one player per hand, and for that reason, #3 is clearly fine and it may justify #2, but I do feel it's a tad dodgy.
