Pardon my French, but your excuse is B/S. You installed the hack in the first place, then you logged on the server, knowing almost no server tolerates hacks. Although you knew well the hack was key-sensitive, you made it to the DM, which is, like, the least secure place to hack at.
I'm sorry about being so straightforward, but you shouldn't have tried to make up excuses. We'd appreciate it if you were serious about taking responsibility.
