OK, I reckon I don't play much online so you can count be as a noob. I lose almost every time and, guess what? I come back again. Why? Because I still have fun.
No, I don't like losing but I don't really care that much. What I really don't like is to be wiped clean out of the map before I'm able to do a damn thing. Why? Because it is not fun.
People don't get mad at ace players. People don't band together to beat the crap out of them. Yet, as many other posters have mentioned, people do band together against cheesers. Is it because cheesers win? No. It is because they take the fun out of the rest of the players.
If you play to win, fine and good. Cheese to you heart's content if you find people willing to take you.

Don't count on me, though. I'm here for the fun.
In Stroustrup's own words:
"C makes it easy to shoot yourself in the foot; C++ makes it harder, but when you do, it blows away your whole leg."
Terry Pratchett already pointed out that the sound of one hand clapping is "cl". The sound of the other hand clapping is, of course, "ap"...
