Gaming Communities Suck
I am going to preface this with the statement that I only use MPGH to find out what cheats are easily available in the games I play, and it often is a reason for me to not play games when cheats are ridiculously powerful, easily found, and rarely detected. This was the state DF1 was in the last time I visited this forum, and thus I haven't been involved with DF1 at all in about a year. I have no problem inherently with cheats or cheaters, there are plenty of games with developers that actually do a good job of providing proper anti-cheat to protect their game. The fact this game has a standalone client that you can simply use cheat engine on to accomplish so much shows how incompetent the developer is at preventing any cheats, thus being angry about cheaters being prevalent is asinine.
Now to the actual point of this thread. There are a few toxic members of even this tiny cheating community. While I am glad to see that the public cheats for the game are rather minor in the grand scheme of the game as opposed the 1 hit kill cheats and such that were available last time I was here, reading through posts just shows me how despicable people can be. I am not going to call anyone out specifically, but anyone who has read even a couple threads will realize who I am talking about.
While I understand the disdain for leeches and the want for others to move on to better platforms, simply insulting people for not understanding the way cheats work or are developed is an entire act in stroking your own ego for knowing something others don't. Something many of these people are willing to learn, but do not know where to learn it. Instead of helping people learn and grow in the things they are interested in, you hold your own success over them, rubbing it in their face, and act like you are some kind of saint for telling people to just do what you do.
Instead of gloating and making an ass of yourself, you should want to help point people to resources where they can better themselves and achieve what they want. This isn't just a problem in this community, it is a problem in almost every gaming community. Most people simply insult those who are worse than them at whatever goalpost they set for themselves. In CSGO 2 people at the same rank can have entirely different skillsets and they both insult each other to no end about what they are better at than the other player, meanwhile both of them are hardstuck the same rank. Even if you aren't the best at something, if you have strengths that others do not then you should strive to help others who want to gain that strength do so.
