yeah, that could become a problem there, I hate hackers so much, they're such jerks, they're like an online bully or something.

Not all hackers are jerks. There are hackers out there that help with criminal investigations. You saying that they're all jerks is like saying people with guns murder people for the heck of it. Police officers have firearms, and they don't (usually) kill people for the heck of it.

Really, it's hackers like the ZU hackers that give many other hackers a bad name.

thats true, but the kind we're talking about are.

Uhh... I'd just like to point out that hackers hardly ever do anything beneficial to society. mainly, they'll hack into servers/computers to steal information for identity theft, steal their money, steal classified information for the sake of personal gain/exploitation...

Saying that 'these hackers give other hackers a bad name' is like saying 'Most money launderers give money launderers like "catch me if you can" a bad name'.

("Catch me if you can" was about a guy who made counterfeit money and checks very well, but in the end, he was able to help the feds catch others that did the same thing.)

I object. I object much greatly.

Hackers are all good. That's what I said, read it again. ALL HACKERS ARE GOOD. This is the reason:

Hacker- One who bypasses security to learn or help someone.

Cracker- One who bypasses security for personal gain.

What we have is Crackers. I am a Hacker. I hack to learn, and to help (See earlier).

[JDog]

Well, as long as you help, and not destroy, its all good. :D

[darkphantomime]

But Crackers are... TYPES of hackers.

hackers don't do anything beneficial at all  ???

[Gamefreak]

But in your previous post, you said that all hackers were good.

[MagmarFire]

That was Zeldaforever who said that, not GRD.

[Gamefreak]

Gah, my bad.  I confused them because they both don't have avatars.

[GayleThePirate]

Seriously, this is bad. TDC is my favorite site! Curse you Zelda terrorists!!!!!!
This reminds me when a hacker put a virus in my computer that caused it to crash, it was months before I could fix everything. :(

[Gamefreak]

Don't worry.  Zelda hackers haven't been here, nor will they be here.  We're safe.

[kirby comix v2]

i hope they don't come here! by the way Gayle the Pirate, nice avatar quote ::)
