 * Keep. "Exploit" in online games has a fairly well defined meaning, and that is different enough from exploit (computer security) to warrant an article.  This stub is a reasonable beginning to an article that has potential to grow. - Smerdis of Tlön 20:00, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep The online game definition has become different enough from the computer security definition to warrant its own article. Exarion 23:36, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. Some of it is not really hacking. - Penwhale | Blast the Penwhale 03:16, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - This article provides no verifiable sources to establish notability. It seems to be original research.  The info in this article could be included in any of several other articles if it can be sourced.  Shaundakulbara 06:17, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment - while it may seem that it's OR, a lot of the exploits are well-documented. For one particular example, there are programs for Final Fantasy XI that used to allow players to warp around because the code in the game was not very well done. (obviously it was fixed, but...) It's just something to think about. - Penwhale | Blast the Penwhale 12:32, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
