Greek we dont want YOU gone. we want the hacking references gone.
Programmers create code. Software engineers create systems and are paid to do so. Most people view “hackers” as people who “hack” exisiting code created by others without their authorization. Before becoming a full time affiliate I worked for a major electronics manufacturer who employed dozens of full time programmers, we created code and satisfied our clients needs we didnt take other peoples exisiting programs and hack them, the term hacking generally causes honest engineers to bristle.
If you “hack” Microsoft code and Bill Gates does find out he will most likely sue you not reward you as a pioneer.
Perhaps you consider the term programmer and hacker interchangable, but I never have. But it really doesnt matter if you call it hacking, cracking or hungarian dwarf tossing we dont want it here.
Greek we love you for you not because you can sick Eric or Neil or even Morpheous on the baddies. I know you just want to help your fellow affiliates and we all appreciate that, it’s just that we are asking that it be done in a constructive way.
If you want to contact people privately and propose other methods of working out problems that’s beyond our control. But we wont have hostile activity discussed here at the forums….
Now thats enough of this unhappy chat… Its the holiday season and we should all be celebrating the years good fortune with family and friends and planning on a prosperous new year.
