Speaking as the outsider here (who doesn’t suffer from hacks because I play in singleplayer) - you are coming across as speaking nonsense. I don’t know if it’s a language issue - maybe your translation software is failing to translate ‘hack’ or ‘hacker’ correctly.
Yes - it’s literally what the word means in this context. A fact you would probably notice if you actually paid attention to what people are saying.
Not the topic of this thread. Maybe that’s why you find yourself getting flagged when every reply you type seems designed to pull topics as far as possible away from the intention. Or is that the social engineering that you mean - your intentional manipulation of threads to take them off topic?
No - pointing out that there are people literally buying third-party software to enable them to cheat in a game is not trolling - it is pointing out a legitimate problem (that would commonly be called ‘hacking’ by anyone that speaks English). An example of trolling would be coming into every thread that discusses the hacking that these players are being subjected to, which is ruining their play experience, and trying to downplay the hacking. Arguing that there is no such thing as hacking, or that hacking is not cheating, or that discussing the fact that others are using hacks is trolling, or arguing that the discussion should be about your attempts at social engineering - those would all be good examples of trolling behaviour.
