And why do people STILL, FUCKING STILL, call it "hacks" and "hackers", it's a goddamn cheat. The expliot itself is a hack, a workaround, but the actual act of cheating is still just cheating. That is unless you barge into some coders room and yell "HACKER" at him, but please, don't call cheaters hackers as that isn't even derogatory. They're not hackers. They're [b]Cheaters.[/b] [i]Just trying to decrease the ignorance...[/i]

It's like being called a king for taking a shit.
Another thing I'd like to point out about hacking/cheating is that the people who make the hacks barely, if ever, play the actual game, they most of the time even have people that try the cheats out for them. No one makes their own cheats. [editline]2nd January 2011[/editline] I do realise I come of just like Stallman does about GNU/Linux, but it's important in the same way.
