Heh, this reminds me of my old IRC days when I got my first PC. Cool concept at first, but eventually gets annoying when kids use it today in videogames to harass others.
Is that a personal matter? or just an opinion that i guess is built up from the "mass media" education?. I've interpreted this sentece with an ironic meaning. I don't think that a hacker is a loser, lamer or script kiddie wanting to earn up skills for doing dissaster to other people's computers. I think that people developing PHP, MySQL, APACHE, Every branches of Linux, GNU, or maybe experts that assist other people to create better internet, they and only they are the true hackers. Of course they own the secrets of internet and can do what a script kiddie does and much more effective, but "what's the need for this?". In general, a Hacker is a person that feeds the hunger of curiosity by exploring every detail of a system, and hence, it becomes an expert. If your target were to destroy, would you enjoy the process of creation and evolution of such a system?? I don't think so.
Not a personal matter. Wherever the word "hacker" is used, the first thing that comes to mind is usually something associated with: virus, spyware, keyloggers, crashing of computers, data loss, stealing programs, and the like. I do understand your point though.
Learning new programming languages and how things work is a wonderful thing. One of my best friends has been recently hired by NASA to work with their computers. He's a genius with computers, but he does not do any harm. You have those people though who learn about programming languages, and the like, just to make a virus and destroy the information on a complete stranger's computer. If they do not destroy computers, they steal programs and the like because they do not feel as if they need to pay for what they use. Those are the irresponsible, immature, idiotic (yay for alliterations!) people who have nothing else better to do.
I call honest people (those who do not destroy/steal information-but learn for the fact of improving upon technology) who are really keen with computers, just that, honest people.
That's my view on it if people agree with me or not.

Now I know how to act like a hacker without actually making a key-logger and messing up some poor guys computer.

That was a completely pointless post. Did you even read the topic? It had nothing to do about hacking. It was about "1337". The post was about how to talk without having people or auto-programs understanding them. Exactly like a code so that programs can't have hit-words to look for. These hit-words are everywhere, the government sets them on your phone. If you have ever said the word "bomb" on your phone your conference has been recorded. No mater if you were really talking about bombs or saying "she is the bomb!" That was the point of the topic. As for the point of your post I'm still trying to figure out.
1337 5p34k Ever wonder what all this is? {1337 h4xx0r} well... here ya go!...
Rolling on the fool laughing. Thanks. Now all I need to do is learn to hack. Just kidding. I always wondered what the big deal with 1337 was (and why anyone cares about it). Now I know how to act like a hacker without actually making a key-logger and messing up some poor guys computer. Even with this I don't think I will ever be able to master computer "slang". But I'm sure I can confuse the heck out of people on games if I start talking "1337" to them. Well I wanna try this out: I will own u b4 that llama haxor tries 2 drill my computer.
I am a moderator for a children's forum and they think that l33t speak is all the rage. I am quite tired of seeing it, and so are the rest of the moderators. We got together one day and banned l33t because it became so out of hand. >_< The children hated it, but they eventually stopped using it so they could start using the forum again. :-)
