Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to have to look in the Quake 3 source code to see where Id hid all those stolen CC numbers.

Modding is a gateway drug, people - first you're coding a rapid-fire explosive shotgun, next you're hacking into GCHQ.
Just say no!

Wonder what this means for those of us who only play the mods instead of make them..

Minor accomplices? I suppose it depends on the age of the player. They're stating that it's "young people" developing these criminal skills, after all. That rules me right out.
