Sony Online Entertainment is pretty pissed with hackers in its recently released PlanetSide 2 title for the PC.  If you are one of them, it looks like a ban is in your future.

As with a lot of games, Sony’s free-to-play PlanetSide 2 has its fair share of hackers.  Instead of simply letting them run amok, Sony Online Entertainment’s president John Smedley has vowed to put an end to their ways.

Smedley used Twitter as his avenue of choice to threaten PlanetSide 2’s hackers.  He said: “I want to make some very clear statements about hacking in PlanetSide 2. We are aggressively banning people. As they develop hacks, we will break the hacks. We have time and great people. Trust that this is a top priority. Hackers will not win.”

In one of Smedley’s other tweets he expressed his disgust for one hacker in particular, saying: “Haruhi was just banned. all 3 of his accounts. Goodbye you scumbag. Find a new hobby or get good at the game.”

Ouch!

Have you been playing PlanetSide 2?  What are your thoughts on Smedley’s comments towards the game’s hackers?
