all posts above my post is wasted bandwidth.
If someone has a hard time to understand why someone hacks or griefs, they must be unintelligent due to the obviousness.
Do you start all your replies with, I am smart you are dumb?

hacking a game will make other players mad. Hackers do this so that other players show this reaction. This is a kindle for the hacker to start teasing other players, or also known as trolling. When a hacker gets to attack a player with this method, they get amusement.
This only describes the downloading dork public. There false sense of empowerment when using these scripts. There lulz. These are not hackers or script writers.
A real hacker writes a script to circumvent the system. They see themselves as a sort of a Robin Hood. Stealing from the rich software makers, and giving to the poor slobs with a computer. They fancy themselves heroes. They want praise and cheer for there nefarious deeds. So they release cracks, hacks, and tools to the public.

There are mainly two reasons. One is to madden other players (either friendly or enemy) to get similar amusement hacking gives. The other is to use it strategically to gain an upper hand in a match. Example of this would be destroying an enemy's fortress so that the enemy cannot rely on it for cover, thus benefiting your own team.
This is a simple minded simplification. Is madden even a word? But ya ok.
