Hi, my name is CelticParrott and I am a hacker. It has been 3 weeks since I last hacked. I find it very interesting reading this thread, written by "non-hackers". Indeed there is some accurate information.
When the hack is detected by PB there are many different kinds of kicks but the big one is the "GUID", which isn't really a big deal. I have been GUID banned 3 times and it only lasts as long as it takes for me to enter a new serial. So GUID=useless. A GUID Hardware ban bans any hardware that has a MAC address. Install a spoofer....no more hardware ban. So GUID Hardware Ban=useless.
I'm sorry to say but MSX is here to stay and we are everywhere. Let the flames begin.

Lol you run some programs that allow you to cheat in an online game and YOU call yourself a hacker. I know some people here are to n00bish to know what a real hacker is but YOU. You sir are not a hacker, you are just a cheat. Im guessing that you are just a script kiddy but if you do write programs and actually figure things out for yourself instead of google searching "1337 hax" then maby I would call you a hacker but if your cheating in online games you are a lame excuse for one and your not welcome here.

I'm not welcome here? Funny, I didn't see anything that said I couldn't post here if I said I used "hacks". But if any of the admins want to ban me then that is fine with me. I can actually live without BF2s.com. As for YOU. You sir should educate yourself more before posting because you have a dislike for "my kind" so let me educate you boy.

hacker: [originally, someone who makes furniture with an axe] n. 1. A person who enjoys exploring the details of programmable systems and how to stretch their capabilities, as opposed to most users, who prefer to learn only the minimum necessary. 2. One who programs enthusiastically (even obsessively) or who enjoys programming rather than just theorizing about programming. 3. A person capable of appreciating hack value. 4. A person who is good at programming quickly. 5. An expert at a particular program, or one who frequently does work using it or on it; as in `a UNIX hacker'. (Definitions 1 through 5 are correlated, and people who fit them congregate.) 6. An expert or enthusiast of any kind. One might be an astronomy hacker, for example. 7. One who enjoys the intellectual challenge of creatively overcoming or circumventing limitations. 8.

So in the gaming community, one who uses software to enhance his or her gaming experience is known as a "hacker".It's just a term.  In the hacking community, one who makes hacks for other people is known as a "coder".

Because my presence here bothers you so much, why don't you just go ahead and ban me? Or maybe you cant? I really couldn't care less if I do get banned but don't think for one second that will stop me from being here...I just need to spoof my IP and get a new username. I am now your new best friend.
