Click on the name of someone who isn't in a live event and you'll see extra options. You're automatically registered for the ladder if necessary. ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted Aug 13, 2007, 6:22 pm

Nice hacking Sam I do that all the time - suggest something cool and quick to the client, they say yes, I do it, they're happy. Then someone points something out I hadn't considered... Such is a coder's lot. ......................... vet Posted Aug 14, 2007, 1:12 am

Hacking implies covert access to memory or entry to files usually not meant to be available. "Developer"  is a better description of what Sam does. Hence, the game we all play! ......................... vet marshal wv cont Posted Aug 14, 2007, 1:37 am

Hacker is often used by the mass media to refer to a person who engages in computer cracking and is also often by those in computing fields to refer to a person who is a computer enthusiast. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hacker ......................... vet Posted Aug 14, 2007, 8:51 am

Jag Cancer Jags Marauders Sunday Driver Renegade Group: Members Posts: 98 Joined: Jul 23, 2007 However, the term 'hacking' was used as a programming term before it was adopted to describe 'illegal entry to computer systems'. Hacking in a traditional sense is making particularly talented/lucky/clever changes to or adding code without full planning or according to a spec. In commercial projects code is created according to the design spec and managed. In smaller projects it tends to be hacked together. ie no proper planning or design - just writing as you go. While this is generally quicker and requires more knowledge of the system it tends to result in more unreadable code and a lack of cohesive structure. Thus I described what Sam did as hacking. If it was planned and designed then the eventuality would have been catered for as it would have been designed, written and tested :P Hacking is ideal for prototyping as a prototype app doesn't need full functionality as often it is purely for use as a 'proof of concept'. If ya gonna quote wikipedia try: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hacker_definition_controversy BTW, it was not meant in a negative way at all. Most of the stuff I do is hacked together due to lack of proper design brief by clients. ......................... vet Posted Aug 14, 2007, 1:06 pm Last edited Aug 14, 2007, 1:08 pm by Jag Cancer
