"hackers" don't ruin the game by releasing cheats to everyone, they ruin the game by making them in the first place, then everybody knows they exist and start screaming everytime they get shot in the head.
I don't mind people "creating" cheats to see if they work. I do, however,
mind A LOT when they announce their success and release them: at this
point, all hell breaks loose. You see, this is why I like LAN games, real life
basket-ball, billiards and chess games: no one can cheat you...
The creation of hacks as an intellectual activity is fine with me though...
