You reap what you sow.

For hacking, you get the common side-effect of various taunts against you as a person. You're obviously a hacker in the eyes of most if not all of FFR. Izzy asked whether you were implying that you were a good hacker or not. You're already a hacker. And it was obviously detrimental to FFR. Even if you changed as you say, you have to pay the consequences for hacking in the first place.

I never did because it was too small to care about. Besides that my logic is different anyways. I wouldn't call me a hacker though because I did tell them up front that I did it. If I didn't you could call that hacking. Might I add not everyone knows about me on FFR anyways. You can't speak for sadly everyone Midday. You need to understand that there is over 1 mil people on this. I doubt half aka 500 000 people know or even 1 000 000 people know about me and being a "hacker". I could go on but I think I have said enough. Its still not going to go away, this way that I am, I will make sure that everyone understands that Hackers are more then what they appear to be. Its just human nature that you think of them this way. At least think of them in a good way. Think of the good things that they do, think of the bad things when it happens to you or anyone else, then you can say that hackers are bad. But you can't just go saying it until you have a reason.

just to clarify for you guys, people don't hack FFR. they download a program someone much smarter than them made and then it does the rest.

That distinction has already been made, Musiks.

To be honest I really think that this whole thread is pointless and its not going anywhere. Your just getting your self into an arguement that your going to lose. If you hacked somthing, just accept that you screwed up. You don't need to make a thread asking people their opinions.

I used to hack the Pinball game that comes with Windows XP just to show my friends and get a laugh out of it. That said, not all hackers do things as harmless as that.

I know that much, I mean some hackers are sometimes stupid. Others just.... Try to help. Just saying stuff mean about them is just..... Stereotypical and just as mean as if they hacked you. But ya know, what do I know right? Im a hacker your going to think this is just cuz I am that way, it is and its also because some people don't understand how some hackers feel about being told this in their face. Its like a slap in the bloody face. Anyways do what ya want with this thread. I just can't seem to get it through to people. Ill have to try other means... Ah well.

This is kind of like saying, "<insert random ethnic group here>, are they with us, or against us?" Obviously, not every hacker is trying to hurt you, and they certainly aren't all trying to help you. What a strange question to ask anyway....

I'm sure I'm not wrong in the eyes of many when I say people like you deserve more than just a slap in the face.

This is dumb as hell.... Why are we having this involved discussion about hackers. Nobody asks this of pedophiles or vegetarians or any other random side occupation that people have. For god's sake, hackers are not like a misunderstood group of people or anything. I'm sure they vary just as much as anyone else. I don' feel sympathy for them, because I didn't even know that it was a stereotype that they were harassed or whatever. Actually, I don't even consider the "hacker" group worthy of a stereotype.

Hacking isn't limited to computers either. It could be some modification to some other kind of mechanical device.
And by the way, you're wrong about this.... Here are a few definitions for hacking which I'm sure existed before computers were even created

hack (verb)
hack [hak] (hacked, hacking, hacks)
1. cut something using repeated blows
to cut or chop something by striking it with short repeated blows using a sharp tool such as a knife or an ax
2. chop something off or into parts
3. cut way through obstruction
4. cough with rasping noise

By the way, in case you didn't notice, at this point I'm just screwing with anyone who's still taking this thread seriously.

Edit: Haha, thanks foilman.
