Well the topic of this developer diary is a naughty word—the H word—H****** - er… hacking. It’s something we at Mythic don’t often talkabout openly, but we do take very seriously. It’s a very interestingsubject that I’d love to talk in-depth about; it has many challengesand curiosities that make for an interesting discussion. I get a senseof joy when I know we’ve ruined a hacker’s day. Unfortunately,“fighting the good fight” is very cloak-and-daggers stuff, going backand forth, with the hackers and cheaters—so, to talk about it in greatdetail also gives information to the very people we’re attempting tothwart. Here’s my best shot at showing you a glimpse behind thecurtain about how we handle hacking and cheaters without giving awaytoo many of our secrets!
