 Adequacy Hall of Shame

Adequacy.org received hundreds of story submissions from readers who felt that they possessed the requisite skills needed to craft a work of journalism worthy of inclusion on this site. The vast majority to those people were dead wrong, and our dedicated staff worked tirelessly to keep these ill-conceived, badly argued and horrendously punctuated bits of prose away from our esteemed readers.

  Hackers; Victims of media stereotype
It seems like you're always hearing in the news about hackers who are getting put in jail for "hacking" into websites and stealing vital information. What the public doesn't know is, it's not hackers who are breaking into those sites, it's crackers; a totally different thing! Crackers are the one's who are cracking into websites, crashing networks, infecting online users with virii and simply causing mayhem! But the media has put a sterotype all over hacker name claiming that they're the one's to blame for all the damage done!
