Looking for honest opinions. Is a sand duping machine a legitimate farm for an item that's essentially finite or is it a cheat.

I put it in the same category as TNT duping and tripwire hook duping.

If the game's code allows duping via a specific arrangement of blocks, it's not cheating :)

/give sand is cheating, but building a sand duper isn't.

    This is how I feel, exploiting in-game mechanics isn't cheating and is just Steve using the Magical Physics of the Minecraft World in a way only he can.

    Creative mode or /give is cheating, building machines to manipulate/duplicate items is fair game.
