I think people hack because it's a game in itself. Is a great way to learn how to code too and have fun.

I just wish they had more empathy and understanding of the consequences it has on others.

I think some people enjoy banning others too much, though. It's the "PWnd!" type of person.

That's pretty much the situation. I was a developer of MQ2 because it taught me reverse engineering and how to code in C++ and made it enjoyable because I had actual interesting code to write that was useful to me and others.

When I got banned for calling Uthgaard a name it really pissed me off especially when he was in the wrong for banning me from forums according to the forum rules since I said that something Nilbog said was bullshit, I never called anyone a name. Oh and when he banned me he called me a bunch of names so I felt it was only fair that I get to return the favor. Staff initiates personal attacks and bans you before you can respond? And I'm supposed to miss Kunark launch now along with my friends who had NOTHING to do with this because it takes 10 years to get a response to petitions and Uthgaard keeps banning me from forums erasing my petition thread so I have to wait over again?

I had an intricate plan to royally fuck over this entire project including EQEmu but then I stepped back and realized, why should I let staff response cause me to ruin the enjoyment of thousands of people? I really hope people who find themselves in a similar situation come to that same conclusion. I really don't think you'll find a more unfair ban than mine considering I was essentially banned because a staff member broke the rules and if I can move on peacefully so can you (speaking to everyone who has been banned).
