I have been on this forum for about, 1-2 days. And oh my. So many 12-16 year olds calling themselves 'Hackers'.
The actual definition of hacker, is to gain unauthorized access to another COMPUTER. Not to software.
Now, in general speak, using software to gain you access is not considered 'Hacking'. Sorry.
Kids saying Cheat Engine is a hacking tool? Negative. It is a memory reading / writing program.
You are changing values within your own PC. Do you still want to call it hacking, even though you are technically "hacking" your own computer? If so, sweet. Do me a favor and deltree C:\ ...show me how leet your skills are in hacking your own computer.
Alot of you are Script Kiddies. You copy / paste pre written code, change the title on a form and claim it as your own.
Alot of the code snippets people post here, are widely known. Yet you all claim its your own work.
Now, you kids may think its cool to calling yourself a hacker. I am sure, you also fall into the same category as thinking Justin Bieber is the best singer.
Adults (18+) tend to think you are idiots. But hey, what do we know? We just work for a living, and we're old.
I am 25 years old, a former United States Marine(0311 - Rifleman). I have been programming since i was 12. So i'd hope my word holds a bit of weight.
Trust me when I say, you are not a hacker. But merely, an exploiter.
With that said, exploit away.
