hi thomas,
you forgot to mention the good hackers
the hackers who believe in freedom information who hack into databases
of governments and corpurations to expose corruption and dirty secrets
I don't believe any hackers who attack aprone's server fit that catagory

Hi Al,
Cheap thrills. That is why most crackers do it. A lot of the crackers
out there are teenagers or people who are just immature adults who
like breaking into computers and messing things up for a laugh. The
mentality here is like the grade school bully who picks on everyone
else during playground just because he gets a cheap thrill out of it.
Asking why crackers do it is like asking why do bullies beat up blind
kids just for being blind, why do bullies make fun of the fat kids,
why do they pick on the short kids, whatever. They do it because they
have something emotionally and mentally wrong with them that makes it
easy to overlook the pain and suffering of others.

I have a question, although it will make me sound stupid.
Why were hackers trying to hack into the server or game? I guess I don't
understand what the purpose of that would be. Was it to take control or just
to destroy everything?
I mean, the game is free, so what else could there be for someone to gain?
