Immaturity of developers

Anyone else notice that a decent amount of cheat devs are immature, even the older ones? It really throws me off how they act.

With all the racism and shit talking they do, you'd assume they're a teenager. Obviously not all devs, it's mostly the ones from NA in my experience.

Am I the only one who notices this?

what throws me off the most is I think these people are genuinely smart. I respect what they're able to do. what could have stunted their growth this way? for those of you who are immature cheat devs, why do you act the way you do? what's stopping you from acting your age?

Money drives you dumb, in the most of case ;)

People are willing to pay 100$ to get the 1st place on a scoreboard or to drive there account straight to the ban -

C'mon, let's be honest - Who are the dumbest one or acting like teenagers,
Dev or people buyin cheese ?

Racism is not immature, it's just pattern recognition.

Most people in the cheat community cant even call themselve Dev's because copy and pasting from UC and github doesn't automatically makes you a Dev.

Sure there are a few legitimate Dev's who are still retarded as fuck but thats not the majority. The one's i've me were always really nice and respectful and took criticism well.

And people who are saying cheese,chair or any other shit abbreviations anywhere else beside discord should get fucking slapped and banned from the platform.

Well the thing is, most cheat devs are actually quite young. And the reason behind this is pretty obvious:
You are building a business with medium-reward but high risk and effort.

It is very unlikely that you make millions of Dollars/Euros selling cheats/hacks/bots. I know that there are a few exceptions out there. However most of them were sued/broken down at a given point in time. Either due to laws stuff, just because the Anti-Cheat became too good/too complex to circumvent (League of Legends is a good example of this) or just because the game fall off popularity (e.g. Warrock).

So this means you make maybe 200-300k/year for 1-3years and if you are lucky you only have to invest 8h/day for support/updates/bug fixes/etc. This sounds like a lot of money. But just imagine the same guy who wrote this cheat would have created something like Seafight/DarkOrbit. They would be millionairs now AND the most important thing: They would still earn money and not just 1-3years. They also could expand with new/other games, etc.

All of these things show, that cheat/bot/script development is medium reward but high risk regarding scaling but low risk medium reward for 1-3 years. This means guys developing cheat devs are normally not looking forward to the future but try to make their money now, because they need it now. For example because they are just students.

I also wrote my most scripts/cheats when I was in school/studying. Now after leaving university I would never ever again start a cheat company, because there are so many other and more rewarded ways to make tons of money as software developer without getting into trouble with other companies.

So the short answer is:
They are acting like kids, because 90% of them are at maximum 20 years old.
