That's a bit extreme isn't it? I can understand the paranoia of people using illegal copies of the game, but plenty of people run it NOCD because it's a pain in the bum swapping CDs everytime you want to play a different game.

Perhaps if EA had followed most other online games example and restricted the serial numbers then legitimate players trying to make their lives easier with their legitimate copies of the game wouldn't be penalised.

Bloody EA! And yes it is EA's fault. Their failure in the anti-piracy and anti-cheating ascpect causes issues like this.
