Im not gonna lie to you Cloud, the chances of meeting a 'Hacker' on Phantasy Star Online while playing is probabily pretty high unfortunately. Although whether they hacked the item or were just given the items they used unaware of their status is another fact. Theres also the matter of cheating though using an Action Replay which again is pretty much the same thing!
But its not all bad, meeting up with good ol Legitimate players like me wont spoil your game. Just by simply asking the other players while online will usually get you an honest response.
Again, (Not that im tryin to put you of playing online) you could find the game may freeze occasionally while playing online which could possibly make your characters items apart from those equipped dissappear, but there are precautions you can take to minimise the damage, but dont worry, it shouldnt happen THAT often!
Trust me, when you start playing online, it does honestly open the game up a LOT, and you'll enjoy it, despite the amount of cheating going on throughout!
Also like Phantom_RAcast said, if you've got a Dial-Up modem like i have, you'll just simply need to connect the phone cord into a Phone jack! Depending on the Phone jack though you may need to buy an adapter to make the cord fit into the jack, but they dont cost much, i had to get one, it just depends on which BT phone jack you've got! Could sound confusing, but its not, its probabily just the way ive put it!
