Now, I haven't used a repack lately so I have no evidence pointing in either direction...
perhaps I'm just a little dense, but is there proof positive that there's a hack involved
in these latest Leslamarchs repacks?
I mean, has there been any verification as to this... like finding the pre-packaged
hack in the program?
Using the data allowed me as well as a hefty helping of 'Occam's Razor', I've boiled
the problem down to the two most rational solutions, and one seems more rational than
the other.
1) A well-known person in the Emu community places a hack in program he/she
knows will go out to many people who will use the public servers, knowing it's got a
hack installed in it (And likely be traced back to his repack, 'tarnishing' his/her name?)
Or
2) A faceless somebody got caught using a hack and, to save their own bacon,
claimed it came from a publicly available, (and verifiable), repack.
This post isn't meant to start an argument or point fingers... I'm just voicing some
concern over what observations I've made and what little common sense I have
left to me in my old age. -and I've never been keen on 'Guilty until proven innocent'
sorta scenarios.
