Saying that the Online gaming companies don't do anything about hacking is just plane false information. You obviously haven't been around long ManChild, or you would remember situations where people were booted from games like Warbirds. I remember when the Me163 was available in Warbirds, and then got locked out in the next version. (Maybe it was the 262?) A few folks made a small change to allow them to fly this bird offline and distributed the changed file. Problem was, when they connected online with the modified version, HiTech had the alarms going off. People were getting losing accounts on that one, and it took some doing for them to get accounts back. Some never did.
I notice in the article you quoted nobody tried going online with a hacked FE. Anybody can hack an FE and film something offline, that doesn't tell me anything. If you want to prove cheating online can be done, why don't you try it yourself. Post a film of yourself going online with a hack and doing something obviously uber. We'll see how long you have a valid account.
I don't really expect you to have the guts to try this. If you do however, I imagine we'll find you without a valid account shortly thereafter. Until you can show me evidence like this, your arument is, as Shakespear said, "Full of sound and fury, signifying nothing."
