I still don't see how setting security rules would prevent cheating. I would love to know how to fix this issue as I'm making a similar MMO game with Firebase.
Aha! My only use of firebase was writing a chat application for fun back at their launch marketing push. This is good to see, and I think I might go play with it more.
