So recently, I got back into The Elder Scrolls IV:Oblivion. I became the leader of the fighters the other day. Now, in my RP world, my character sticks to his commitments. So I set out to buy a house in Chorrol, where the fighters guild is based, to be close to the operations.(not really messacary, I needed a goal)
I spent a good 3 days on and off(maybe 6-7 hours total) questing and cave crawling to build up the necessary gold.
I got and bought the house for 20,000, all I had. I went to go furnish the place at the general trader, and everything added up to around 30,000.

I used a bow and arrow glitch to produce tons of valara stones(Very Valuable) and sold them up for around 35K, bought the stuff, and went on my way.

I did it solely for the aesthetics. It does not affect game play at all. I even sold down to only one stone, what I started with.

That was background. Now for discussion value. What do you think of exploiting Glitches?

Is it wrong?
Is it right?
Does it not matter?
Do you encourage it?

Personally I don't see a major problem. I didn't use it to buy the best weapons or anything like that, but I would guess some people would see it as cheap and lazy.

If it matters at all. I'm on an Xbox360 that has never been hocked up to the internet. So no patches.

Equip a bow and arrows. Prepare the bow without firing. Go to your journal and try to unequip the the arrows. Then Drop the desired item. If it works, you should drop an amount of that item equal to the number of arrows you are using. Don't know if it has been fixed.

I still take advantage of the silver keys glitch in Fable: The Lost Chapters. I'm not ashamed of it either.

Hmm.

I've been known to exploit fairly egregious AI loopholes. I've also been known to deliberately ignore them. I guess it depends on the glitch, and how you abuse it, and how it affects your game. Oft-times making things too easy in the short term can ruin things in the long term.
