It would enable me to crash any designated game server due to a memory/object leak it would cause (based on how a dev explained it to me when he discovered it and subsequently patched it).

Ahh, I remember all the butthurt I would cause for the ~week it worked. The masses of complaint threads, the number of people I would mess with, and so forth. That's truly and beautifully pointlessly entertaining.
Haha that sounds great.

See, I'd love to do that, but I'll admit something: I don't have the level of knowledge or skill to write 0day or discover exploits. I wish I did, and I've been reading up on it, but for now I have to stick to dumb skiddy programs to help me. I hate it, and wish I could do it on my own. I've been trying to learn though, which is good.
