Are you one of those guys in a helicopter hovering near spawn points inBattlefield 3 (http://www.joystiq.com/game/battlefield-3) (say, an aircraft carrier), wantonly exploiting the game and infuriating players? You may not actually be cheating, but we still think you'rethe worst.

That aside, Battlefield 3 developer DICE is apparently looking to address allcheaters, and not just that guy who ruins the game for everyone with hisstupid, stupid helicopter, as the company has posted an ad for an "anti-cheat administrator." The move follows a recent redoubling of DICE's efforts (http://www.joystiq.com/2012/01/13/dice-promises-vigilance-against-battlefield-3-cheaters/) to combat cheating in its latest game release.

Said administrator will be tasked with a variety of responsibilities, many of which you'd expect a community liaison to handle, though the list is oddly missing "put up with staggering levels of infantile behavior from legal adults." Can you tell we don't like cheaters?
