They got banned for hacking? That's ridiculous!!
Anyone perhaps think that all they were doing is ROLEPLAYING a smuggler who was using their SLICING ability?
SWG claims it's an RPG than punishes people for roleplaying.
Smuggler's slice, hack, whatever you want to call it, terminals as part of their skills, and they do so to get an UNFAIR advantage, so slicing the game code is just an extension of that ability.
Why bother with RPG if this is what's gonna happen each time someone tries to play that way?
This reminds me of that poor guy who was picked on several months back for ROLEPLAYING a thief and all around bad guy. He stole some guys armor after telling the person NOT to trust him, and gets banned for a little while.
How can SWG look in the mirror!!
NOTE: The above is in no way intended to be serious, the cheats got what they deserved but I wanted to add some humor to the situation, and see how many people don't bother reading until this point and respond in anger or approval to the reply.
Just some fun...
