This is just an observation Ive seen browsing various torrent sites:

WHY do people try to CRACK & HACK World of Warcraft?? Ive seen many ISO copies of the 4 disks around the net, and its completely stupid!! People that try to get on the WOW servers with a hacked copy are stupid!!

It can't be done! This game was desinged to be hacker-proof. Even if you managed to get the hacked copies installed on your system, you still couldn't get a proper serial number that their systems would accept! I mean you have to create an account online with a VALID serial number (no replicas will work), then you have to use a valid credit card for the account to be created.

You can only get onto the WOW servers and play with a VALID copy of the game, and a VALID serial number with an account!!

So what Im asking is why the fuck would anyone be stupid enough to try and get onto the game hacked? You must be stupid. Even if by some TINY chance that you got onto the game, the admins would see it in a second, close your account and ban your IP for life!!
Its totally stupid!! So why try it?!:devil WHY!!!

Anyone have any thoughts?!

I think many people are just playing with the game engine. Some do that with Star Wars: Galaxies as well. Sort of like a... (heh) "single player MMORPG".

There may even be private servers for the game. It happens.

People will try anything to save a buck!!Simple as that.

Maybe it's just for the thrill... but I'll tell you from my experience within the past few months of playing Star Wars: Galaxies (which is an MMORPG like WoW) that it is most definately worth the price per month to play. You can file a help ticket to a dev at noon and get your problem fixed within 30 minutes. There's always someone to help if you need it, and every week they add new features, fix bugs, and have in-game events. Regular games will maybe get 1 or 2 patches in their lifetime, popular games (like the battlefield series) much more than that, but no one-fee game has weekly patches.

I see nothing wrong with people trying to learn how to hack or crack things.
hmm

I used to play SWG, Hawkburn

I had fun, but it was taking soooo long to do anything.

I remember it took me over half an hour to DRIVE my speeder to Jabba's pad, only to get denied a meeting because I had whacked too may of his gang in self defense.

I quit SWG about the same time I quit City of Heroes. Grinding, grinding, grinding, grinding...

People have servers they can connect to and play within other groups.. Like halo that came out for xbox, has been done up by others to have online play instead of networking 4xboxes together. Other sites have game clans and servers to connect others up on there.

I dont really get it either, most MMORPG's are on p2p networks with no real point or purpose

Rajarius · January 25th, 2005, 08:36 PM

There are such things as crack server patches, you know.

While not even a comparable experience, it does allow many people to get together and play online.

Think outside of the box Spock. *gives kirk a high five* Yippiiiee.

Yeah, private servers. There used to be some for that Ultima game. I dont know how popular it was, or if people still play because I dont bother with that nerdy MMORPG nonsense. I cant believe anybody pays monthly subscription fees for any game. These people obviously have more money than brains or else just really really like leveling up their little fairy ninjas or whatever through tedious, repetative battles.

Private servers with groups there is many servers that are out there that will function without need of a cdkey... And a free account setup but the bummer with them is that they do not have the money to invest in upgrading and keeping them running like the companies do but for the person who plays and gets bored quick its definately a solution.

why because its there pointless or not its a challenge example microsoft's windows activation they provide a challene and someone accepts some people dont like to be told no you cant do that

Malakai1911 · January 26th, 2005, 06:07 PM

It's kinda weird. You dont need the CD's to play once the game is installed, and the game comes with a 10 day guest pass for a friend (it says on the pass "let you friend borrow the cd's, he wont need them after the install"). A nocd isnt needed.

Now, I thought you meant bots or glitches... which in my mind would be a more serious problem.
