Unfortunatly, hacking has become slang for "You used an item or tactic that I don't like."

Examples: One of my friends got called a hacker because he put Sunlight Blade on a Dragon King Great Axe. Another friend got called a hacker because he used the Shotel to bypass a shield. Yet another friend got called a hacker simply because he wore the Orange Chared Ring. Honestly, I don't know why someone would hate this ring. The fire damage that it adds is pathetic.

This causes trouble, because people actually report the players as hackers to people like Sony and Microsoft. Obviously this leads to false reports. Someone told me some games get hundreds of false reports per day! Players need to realise the actual definition of hacking is "Modifying the game's code or a save file to cheat."
