They operate on a mob mentality in the thousands and will often "raid" just for the "lulz". Bottom line you don't want to be on the wrong end of their wrath.

Your description is a surprisingly eerie parallel to what my geeky National Instruments disgruntled programmer friend uses to describe the place. I sure as fuck wouldn't want to piss them off.... they're the kind of guys I would want on my enemies, but wouldn't have the balls to try to get them on my enemies in fears that they would turn on me for the fun of it (All of this is based on what I've heard... but I've heard enough to stay away!)
