I'm not sure about other people, but for me I only started hacking to explore possibilities. Remember back in 2008 and 2009 where maps were 'glitchable'? like you run into a wall and you'll be able to see players but they can't see you unless they go up to you where you wall glitched.

But it all changed because someone started using lifetaker on me so I started going on a rampage. Mind you, OPK was still a V.I.P hack back then and I never paid for any hacks.

But I guess for me, I'm not the destructive hacker. I tended to keep to myself with minor aimbot  and ESP hacks. Well you should've seen yesterday when we played together that I had improved from before, because I used to have a dependency on aimbot. I didn't auto aim, but rather bind my aimkey to something like the ALT key or something nearby and easy to reach. For me, aimbot was just a follow-up option and when I used to hack, I only used aimbot when I really needed to; that is, when I'm low on health and enemies are swarming me.

This is coming from the person that used to make ~$500 a month selling hacks: I for a fact, know people who are desperate and willing to pay any sum of money to have access to exclusive hacks; hacks that are not found anywhere else. If you have read my history with combat arms, you would've found out that I had nurtured and kept in alot of hate for Nexon because they banned my account which I spent alot of money on. I was one of the 3 people who recreated lifetaker. Hacking isn't as simple as people think. People always think that you put a line here, rearrange a line there and the seeds of destruction has been sown.

But it is quite the opposite. It takes someone with time, dedication and determination to be a hacker. People have a generalisation of hackers; that they are bad and only want to ruin things for other people for the fun of it. I actually agree with that on some level, because it was what us coders were doing. The hackers themselves, or the hack users as I refer to them as, are the ones who are actually destroying the game and community.

But as I was saying, Hack makers (me) who are coders, gain fame and admiration from other people who use the hacks. Our pride is our virtue. If you are just a typical hack maker who copies and pastes people's codes to make your 'own' hack, you won't get that. Hack users have been around longer than I have been on the hacking scene. They know where the code comes from, who's base they used. So if someone C+Ps my source code and addresses, it's really obvious (My pride and joy was represented in a blue background, yellow text keyboard menu base) because no other coder, who has not retired, has the source code.

I started out low, by making public hacks which had one or two 'V.I.P' feature. People liked it, a few Tier 3 coders (lowest tier) thought I had good potential so they invited me in. Then I got absorbed in the corruption of hacks. I found out that no one in the community, within the lowest tier coders had originality. They just copied off each other.

So in a month's time, I went up the ranks and met the guy (not in person) who ran GameAnarchy and InfinityHacks. These people are above the rest and created their own addresses, bases and source codes.
