A "hack" is a form of [[cheat]]ing that exploits some aspect of the game to grant a user an unfair advantage. Hacks differ from [[exploit]]s in that hacks are almost never achieved in-game, but usually require an external technique; often a third party program.

The term is in common use and can be combined with the another word to detail what it's doing. Players might refer to a way too cheat a character as a "a charhack," and the "[[maphack]]" program is notoriously common on Diablo 2's Battle.net.


==Word Usage==

"Hack" can be used as a verb, to describe the process of cheating.
* ''"I hacked his character."''

Or as a noun, to describe the program or technique itself.
* ''"I used a hack to steal his gold."''
