From what I've read sounds like cheating or cheap tactics...

That right?

Cheese is a product made mainly of milk but also flavouring is added during the fermenation process..... :p seriously though, cheese is to intentionaly use the gaming engine to make the game easier...... Catsing cloud kill at agroup of orc that you know will be there but have yet to see is an example...... just read everypost sone by UserUnfriendly and you'll see an example of cheese in all of them ;)

I avoid using cheese in the game, and usualy I use the standard that I don't use a flaw in the game to my advantage.

This includes Uber-Chars because they mostly get their Uberness from faults or cheats.

For example, If a great billowing orange stinking ball of cloudkill came your way, you would step away, even if you didn't see where it came from......

okay, there are some pain loving weirdo's, but most people would.

Cheese is anything that will enable you to kill enemies in double quick time. I love it when I can zap liches and dragons in less time than I normally take doing it the "right" way. Depending on your point of view, it can either take the fun or the frustration out of the game.

Nope, that would be imp haste. :D

Cheese is rendering the enemy quasi-helpless by abusing certain mechanisms or abilities. Setting five spike traps on the spawning point of a monster and then making it spawn is - for example - cheese, because there is absolutely nothing the monster can do except dying at the moment it spawns.

Is using protection from undead when fighting Kangaxx considered cheese?

Then you can better use the scroll,
it takes less time / work
and it's jsut as easy, and you don't use cheese ;) ;) ;)

That's why I love BG2, you can play it anyway you want, with or without cheese, and still get a kick out of it. :D :)

Wow I remember the grand days of extreme cheesing. Now that was a long time ago when most of us had finished the game. Sigh...
