Well, from a technical aspect, it IS good to fix glitches because if left untouched, they can just have a ripple-effect on the entire game and lead to huge faults.

Of course from a player perspective though, it can be fun or "cheating", depending on who you talk to. I personally love finding and exploiting many glitches, except the ones used in PvP/SvS. Because PvP is a competition against other players, I do feel as though it is very unfair when they exploit a glitch. The little sloops that use SvS glitches are by far the WORST in my book.

Then there are glitches like the empty Kingshead one, which it was quite fun to walk around and explore; it adds a new sense of adventure, like how most glitches of this nature will. There's also the raider/DH glitch which is very useful for training (one where you stand still from a distance, you attack, DH switch from dagger to sword, and he just stands there), and also several like that...

I totally agree with you on this. Glitching invades the code make-up of the game regardless of what others believe.
