You're right about the misuse of knowledges! They are very skilled but indeed they could have done something more...constructive....
I dunno why you got bad feelings about that name. They weren't an ircwar crew but they did fought back when needed.
Anyway, I cannot judge because I'm involved sentimentally and I wouldn't be fair nor impartial!
If you want to talk with them, many of the old XP glories are back to IRCnet because of this trial. I bet you can guess the channel's name...eheheheheh. #xp
I'll be there of course.
I must admit it is very nice to speak with you, wisdom boy!! ehehehh
