No Mans Sky has a logo now that you get by setting your game up and locking it in normal. It cannot be changed. Anyone who customizes the game gets a different logo behind their name that all can see. Cuts down on the bs'ery of folks making vids of themselves doing things and bragging when they have customized their game, be it harder or easier. Hasn't solved all of the issues but many have just gone away, along with the folks that swaggered around.
The issue of cheating is a thorny one.
Solo - If your game crashes and you lose important stuff that will take you a long time to recover, do you give those things back to yourself because you don't want to take the time to get them again? If your body is in the middle of the sea? You get the drift... Those same people who replace items easily forget those times when they want to punish others. Or feel that punishment and a good dressing down are in order.
In MP - you play on a server where everyone else is new and you bring in a leveled up character, and no one knows or understands how OP that character is, is that cheating? Someone dies and no one is there to help get the body back, bring in items from another world you wont use in fighting but helps your building, how cheaty is that? The slippery slope is always very close.

So what I'm saying is most folks have a price, and will cheat but call it something more palatable when it is acceptable to them/us. Rare is the ruthlessly honest human. Total honesty in all things would be an interesting concept for our times. The internet just makes it so easy, the anonymity of it all. And the usual reaction has been "It's just the internet" a place where many now spend most of their time, no longer a triviality in our lives.

Thoughts to ponder.
