[edit] Hax with tax

Non-notable piece of software. --fvw* 04:16, 7 October 2005 (UTC)

Pure advertising. The hack author is using Wikipedia to advertise their cheat program. A link was placed in PSO's "See also" section, which is how I noticed it. I reverted that link. -- Myria 04:23, 7 October 2005 (UTC)

• Delete per nom. Reads like an ad. Ryan Norton ^{T | @ | C} 04:25, 7 October 2005 (UTC)

• Keep. I am definitely not Taxer, and not a Hax/Tax user.

It's an important phenoma in the PSO community right now. If it was an ad, don't you think I would have offered a way to recieve it? Rahonavis 05:37, 7 October 2005 (UTC)

• Delete. I'm PSO's most famous cheater, but you don't see my name or my work anywhere with PSO. It doesn't belong on Wikipedia. -- Myria 04:48, 7 October 2005 (UTC)

• Keep. It is not an ad, or even a joke - it is an insight to the psobb world (vote by 82.9.104.91)
• Delete and enter as candidate for Poster Child of Non-Notable Gamecruft. Dottore So 11:01, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Nothing more than a seemingly vanity description of the program, and a version history. A summary could be placed in Phantasy Star Online if really required. -- Mewcenary 14:12, 7 October 2005 (UTC)

• Delete. --Optichan 19:55, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. This is a joke that started on the PSO:BB forums. I mean, really. Code that will be compiled on a 286 or 386? An algorithm that predicts password changes before they're MADE. This just shows people will believe anything. Nezu Chiza 20:09, 7 October 2005 (UTC)

• Wow..er, Delete, per Nezu Chiza. I wonder, sometimes... pls tell me this is NOT an "important phenoma[sic] in the PSO community. From the article: "[The authors] even go as far as acting as if it's a joke to prevent being taken seriously." For real, tho. Eaglizard 09:49, 8 October 2005 (UTC)

• Keep. This is a real program for a real game. Why delete it? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.202.186.33 (talk • contribs) 15:43, 8 October 2005.

• Delete -- did anyone look at the screenshot? Obvious hoax. The image probably belongs on IFD, too. --Zetawoof 23:17, 8 October 2005 (UTC)

• Delete I am a software developer, and this appears to be pure fabrication, judging by both the screenshots and the version history ("100,000 lines of code", etc.) This is either an inside joke to that community, or a "script kiddie" attempting to impress their peers. --Dan East 05:58, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
