^ make up your mind on what the current state of affairs are before you put forward an arguement.
ST haven't given up, that's why BB was released and why PSU will be soon. If anything, ST should be worried about us giving up on them.
There will always be people who decide to hack, they cannot rely on every players good will. This point clearly made, they have to enforce security, not just implement it in-case people want to use it.

^ The fact the community already is sour is because ST do nothing about the hackers. It is true that if no one tried to hack in the first place, no one would need to rely on ST. But it's STs game, they have no option but to be there to help us. If they fail, they deserve the 'honest community' turning sour, because it's what they have set for themselves by not doing their job.
There is an AR released for PS2, so I doubt it will be any more secure since the game may be re-coded before you even see the title screen. I'm not saying it will be less or more secure than PSU PC, only that we can't yet decide which will be more safe effectively. Especially if PC and PS2 are linked (like in FFXI).
If ST want a more devoted community, they should show us they deserve one. At the moment, they dont. They have to try harder, much harder.
