I agree 100%. Hackers(modders) dumping various versions of IL2 onto Hyperlobby divided the community and destroyed the population on servers making them all less attractive. Hacks(mods) were also responsible for keeping new pilots away from IL2 because instead of them having one simple choice with which they could participate in the entire community, they had to choose between multiple versions and specific servers those versions could be used on.
There was no good reason for hacking IL2. The hacks came from individuals who cared more about what THEY wanted than the good of the sim and community at large, and what you see now on Hyperlobby, nothing, is the end result.
