Reading the whole thread ftw.

@op Unfortunately, there will always be an element of 'players' that seek to take short cuts and there are also those that seek the 'fame' of finding these exploits. It would be interesting to know how many of the reported bugs/exploits were found by accident compared to actively being hacked out.

Remember this is an extremely "thin ice" thread. Even if an exploit is patched/defunct/fixeded, it would be a bad idea to post details of exactly how it was done.

The OP wanted to know how the exploits were discovered.

Simple: greed.

Oh whatever, this is not "Thin Ice" anyone who works in the computer software industry could hack this game in second its not hard if you know how and this thread isnt going to give anyone a degree in CSC.


And they were mroe discovered out of curiosity not greed. There are always people who want to "Beat the System" they are exploited because of greed, but they are discovered because people are always curious as to how the game was created and how to break it.
