Seriously?
Look, we're not being dicks. We're just pointing out that you can't cheat (yes, applying moves during inspection - especially when it's in order to make the start of your solve easier - is blatantly cheating) and expect us to not call you out on it. Illogically defending your actions doesn't help either.

tl;dr: Cheating comes in many forms - refrain from them all.

I agree that it is cheating in a form, but this hobby is meant for fun. If you have to worry about a bunch or different rules while solving, it seems to take away from the fun.

You have seriously got to be kidding me....I see you post in Cube Talk all the time, how do I know none of your PB averages aren't set up now? Dumbest thing I've heard in a while.

really? come on dude im not a cheater i just did it once.

Zach, don' worry about it. Keep cubing and you can do sub10 again.

Meh, cheating once still makes you a cheater. Either way if you want to count this as your pb go ahead, but its really not going to help you grow as a cuber.

And yes, some people on this forum might be overreacting. But wouldn't it bother you if someone posted a video of them getting an UWR at home, but they did a move during inspection and to make the cross easier.

Oh, I'm waiting for Bence to drop by. He'll have a field day.

Cool stuff. Does that mean that if I kill only once, then I'm no murderer?

Actually I agree that regulations shouldn't be taken too serious at home. Stopping with keyboard is already against the regulations for example.

But there is a huge difference between ignoring mistakes you make and obvious cheating.

Still: Do what you want (and then get what you deserve).

I hope your next competition's delegate will look carefully at what you do during preinspection.
