Low self esteem. Can I lock this thread for you now?

Why do people lie?
Why do people steal?
Why do people hurt others?
Why do people kill each other?
U can do w/e

People hack because they want to feel important, And think they have control of some one else's life...It makes them feel in control,And special.
There is no point of hacking... there's a lot of hack besides just SC and it's getting crappy. Some Virus Killers IS the Virus. I wonder what's the point of hacking that just gets the other person lag or hackers steal files or even destroy their hard drive and this might happend to a random person that the hacker never knew he or she is. Computer Hackers really need a life. Plus, computer hackers makes unfair stupid stuff which will feel like it's no longer fun, like you hack and get 999999 gold or 9999999 stats in WoW, which you might get banned or feel boring, if you like work stuff, you gain the fun of it, cheap stuff like hacking will gain boring stuff, like that hack lasted a week and you're still fighting the strongest monster for 50 times... no point and will get boring.
Anyways, what's the fun for hacking others? All Computers Hackers just does are just type type type for hours. (You know like codes for example in starforge just that there's no hack in starforge. If you say there is, I'm just saying)
Sorry to ruin some people's fun, but most cheaters (since most couldn't hack at all, including myself) don't cheat due to some self esteem problem, they most likely cheat for fun. I personally only cheat for two reasons, to see what a cheat can do, and to annoy people that don't cheat.
And I bet someone also hacked and made fun of you. So you just applied the self-esteem theory and started hacking too to make other people suffer.

If that was to me, then you are wrong. I have the ability some people seem to lack that I can just leave a server/game is someone is being annoying, without give them what they want by syaing crap like "OMG WTF HAX". The main reason I started cheating at oune time or another was because I was curious about it.
Thats kind of an obvious question. Lemmie ask u this question that will answer yours...
-Why do people hack peoples comps?
A. lemmie just tell u the answer... for thrills, accomplishment, and nothing to do with their life. SC hackerz are wanna be comp hackers.
-also they have no sportsmenship... like one time, i enetred a sunken d, it was a crasher!
They hack becuase they're not good at SC, when they hack it gived them an edge but they'll never learn how to play SC if they continue hacking.
I must say, I absolutely SUCK at "regular" melee SC. Sure, I'm kinda okay with tactics, but my strategy is horrible. And heck, I have FUN losing. I get good laughs seeing my own mistakes blow up in my face. The suspense and adrenaline flowing through your blood as you rush into a base, shooting at everything in sight, and cackling maniacally as you laugh in the face of your opponent as your forces gets wiped out is almost addicting. With hack, all this is voided. It's all boring. You KNOW where everything is, so you already know where to attack, and where his forces are, and whether or not your reavers will survive a drop into an enemy peon line. The excitement is gone. Everything is boring. Monotonous. Without the thrill, without the fun, why bother playing at all?
Okay, hack users (not hackERS) use programs so they can win. So, they feel the need to win, and they cant stand losing.
You know, I actually couldn't care less about who uses hacks or not. If you need to see the entire map... go right ahead. Most UMS games don't really matter on these things... and if they drop people, they're only making it less fun for themselves.

that was just another 5 minutes sucked out of my life, thx...

People hack because they're dumb. They don't understand that by hacking this game is no more fun then moving your opponents peices in chess and they see you do it. By hack I assume you're referring to programs that directly effect the game. I don't consider things like BWScanner (an anti hack engine that technically hacks the system) or even BWCoach in unofficial matches (although I don't use it because it basically divided up my attention even more than before). If you're going to hack you might as well just play computers because no one's going to stick around unless they want to embarrass you by beating you while you use hacks... If you just want to annoy people by using hacks you're scum, there's no class in annoying people with hacks... there is however class in annoying people by playing on their childish assumptions (such as that you care if they ask where you are and you give them a false location). However... morals aside I think hacking is pretty pointless. No one cares about records anymore (mostly due to hacking and compstomps) and you're only proving that you need a crutch to defeat the average player, which on east and west are pretty pathetic (I like to think all the half decent players play in clans or on wgtour). I would take a well played loss over an easy win any day. This isn't LOTR people, we're not watching a movie of sprites killing eachother. This is StarCraft, one of the, if not most, complex and true tests of wit bringing in several real elements of warfare into game. That is one of the key reasons I don't play warcraft III. It gave up a lot of gaming elements for pretty graphics (which to be honest I dont like more than starcraft graphics), realism?, and ease to master.
If you did, thanks for reading.
You know, the more you complain about them, the more you care.
You know, 75% of the hacks are backdoor'ed these days. A couple of days ago on some hacking site I saw them talking about how they scanned it with norton and it was fine.
Little do they know, norton scans for KNOWN viruses and trojans. If a programmer makes it from scrach... nothing can stop him.
Actually, I used to hack when I was in my major backstabbing phase. It's not anything of the things you guys said when I did it. It was for fun. I was a pretty good player when I used to play too. Anyway for me maphacking was just funny.
