The story of a patcher

It was somewhere in the year 2012, when I got my own iPad 2. Getting this thing on my hands felt like a key to millions of doors, that I could open and explore...
But after a year of “exploring”, I realized the “key” lead me only to some limited paths and consisted by only few things, which could be done:
Install a game > follow the rules in the game > end the game, because you got bored. And so later I got introduced to the world of Jailbreak.
The purpose of Jailbreak is described by its own name. Instead of using my iPad as an entertainment device, I was able to use it as a tool similar to a compact PC, perfected for my needs. Hacking games is not an exclusion of things I could do.
February 2018, while I was playing an online game with not permitted abilities, I saw a guy even more advanced than me and he told me about the tool „Flex 3“. In short it’s a tool, which allows to download and create patches.
The list of uploaded patches to download is incredibly huge and of course the list included 2 patches for Deepworld: “Walk Through Walls” and “Walk On Air“.
These two things made me play Deepworld, which I stopped playing for about two years, again. Although these patches made me insanely overpowered, I pushed it even further by creating other ones, which I uploaded for everyone to use (my first mistake). After running around with the patches in Deepworld, people started to ask me how to get those and I didn’t resist and said how to do it (my second fatal mistake). Why are those my mistakes? It’s because in my mind, I thought there are 2-5 people that would dare to hack their devices followed by hacking Deepworld, so it would result in having an „Elite“ group of people. But these people spread the instructions to other and soon the download counter on all of my patches went over 20. Unfortunately I started to see first details of patches getting in the wrong hands... To be honest, I wasn’t better...
So the only thing I could have done is remove my patches that are being free for everyone to download, by contacting the developer of the „Flex 3“ tool.
3rd April, I made a post on the forum, where I basically turn myself in, but nobody noticed it.
13th April (ironically it was the Friday), the most reported players caught the hit of the mighty ban hammer, including me, D4N_2xI_L. That was the point where I should have just left and stopped playing Deepworld, but that wasn’t possible for me and I kept playing as D4N_alt_1-15 with all the patches, until I came across @Everywhen , who convinced me to not use them.
And so I now play as D4N_alt_infinite, without any patches, facing all the problems I came over 5 years ago.
What I want to add is, that I’m sorry for my actions (again). I don’t know if or how can revert those bad and unthought things I’ve done.
With honesty,
D4N_2xI_L
My masterpiece, I had to give up...

again, it's almost admirable that you're admitting to it, but I hope this behavior will be punished because players like you really ruin the fun for alot of people..
I hope that the new patch will fix the issue and all will go back to normal fair play.
To you I salute you for loving and succeeding in programing, and I hope it works out for you in the future. But if you ask my opinion, I wish you would leave deepworld and went to experiment with something else.
I personally don't care much for your apology or admitting what you did. But I hope you realise what is wrong with your attitude soon, because this type of behaviour could really get you in serious trouble later on in life.
I really want to help making Deepworld cheaters-proof and I have tried to get @mikelaurence attention. (http://forums.deepworldgame.com/discussion/27618/how-to-prevent-cheating-in-dw-on-ios#latest).
I can understand your anger though.
Many trusted players informed Mike right away. I don't think you need to bother him, or post about how you are sorry that you used cheats cause they were available'.
Just find something that interests you, so that you don't have to make posts like 'game got borred so I turned to cheats'
I'm pretty sure transformer was expecting some backlash to his actions, and backlash is to be expected given he is ('was') a cheater (which is pretty much, on the scale of gaming, the closest thing to being a criminal). It's a stupid thing to do, it ruins the fun for others.
It's nice to be so forgiving but it isn't wrong either to be unreceptive to the apology given the offense
PS: not trying to start an argument, just saying I don't see why he should be defended when he's just paying the price for his actions (which I assume he knew would happen before writing this post)
“Forgive them”
“Don’t forgive them”
“They already sound down in the dumps. Don’t sink them further”
“Make them feel like they’re in a bottomless pit”
“Pfft, apologies are for losers”
“Cheaters ruin the game, and no matter what they say afterwards, they don’t deserve forgiveness”
I mean, I know the forums are currently trash, but don’t throw people into the pits of oblivion because of a thing in the past. Time for the quote of the day: “Not everyone deserves forgiveness, but they sure do need it if they ever are to change.” -IronManArcher
With this patch, the, uh, patch, should be fixed.
There has always been some cheaters, whether in form of scammers or patchers. All I wanted to say is that I changed myself by committing and stopping the “crime” and trying to help.
The desire is a devil, also is progressive motivation, an educated person compared with not well educated person, they usually would even cover up their own desire.
It is not easy to rise above ordinary desires. I hope you've learned a lot through this game。
@ItzDennisz , @tr4nsf0rmer ,like my fishing game . lol
Everyone has his own situation. Everyone wants to get better.
All people want to try different things，
There are things that you can only understand through experience, but smart people learn from others' experience.
If no one destroys the game, or large-scale destruction, developers will not improve the game.From this point, all players need to say thank you.
maybe you know a guy named love.... (maybe love or love..) he has many alt acc, he is one of the smart kid, he own the best scammer skill(max skill) in DW, lol
he can sacmmer many onyxs and onyx tools and +3 accessry even notch , he is one of my friend , he is very famouse scammer in DW ,almost every one know he is scammer but he can scammer successful everyday , he scammer me too, but he is one of my best freind, For a period of time, he told me every day what he had gained though scam.
@tr4nsf0rmer Don't care too much. this just a game .
i love everyone( include you )in DW.
llmmzz
2. why do you ping me
He makes a very interesting point that if people break the game in such a way, the devs HAVE to take action and bring out updates.
