Personally, I don't care. Just don't trade me any. And if you think RNG abuse is cheating, you're crazy! You're just setting a flippin' clock!
I can honestly see why some people don't like RNG abuse, as it's technically abusing a feature of the game in a way that the game designers never intended. However, compared to outright using cheat devices, it's very tame. You actually have to do some work with RNG abuse, unlike with PokeSav and the like.
If RNG abuse is cheating, then resetting after failing to catch a legendary pokemon is one as well. Or selecting the best egg from a hundred one during breeding the same couple of pokemon. You need to have brains and patience for both "fair" breeding and RNG abuse; understanding seeds, delay and other stuff is not rocket science, but it still requires skill. Using Pokesav on retail carts isn't an easy chore either - you have to build an infrastructure to extract and write save files, thus spending time, effort and money as well.
Once again, I believe, that if no one cheated, we'd never have so much knowledge about game internals. RNG abuse is the best thing ever happened to Pokemon series, but before that there were some really fun challenges in deciphering structures containing pokemon data in a save file or memory (as well as structure of save files themselves). Different people have different kinds of fun when playing the game, and if they spent time to make a 31 IV Scisor by RNGing it, and use this pokemon for VGC, so be it. Perfect stats is a good aid for victory, but it is mostly strategy that wins 6vs6 matches.
I don't do it. I don't take any issue with anyone who does, or the act of 'cheating' itself. At the end of the day, we play the game how we want to and should be free to do so without petty prejudice.
To those who do attack those who 'cheat': it is simply how that person likes to play this particular video game. If you don't like doing it, then you don't have to. Nothing changes for you, you are unaffected.

......We're not complaining about people using GameShark or Action Replay to get 999 of each item. We're complaining about losing 15-20 matches on Random Match due to people who hack the game to perfect their Pokemon's stats. And don't go saying that we just suck at battling. It's the perfected stats that tear us apart and force B/W to have no post-game content whatsoever. I know you likely understand this already but I just felt like clarifying.
