I imagine they have backups so it shouldn't matter.

Hard to feel sorry for a site that charges people money to download other people's intellectual property at any decent speed, and/or makes them wait in ridiculous lines when there's available bandwidth going unused.

Most sprites and sound files are below 10MB anyway.

Esf-world has never required users to pay for access to files. I havn't given esf-world a penny and I have downloaded ****loads of files from their servers in the past. I think they had an option for you to pay for faster download speeds, but that is in no way selling other people's property, it is selling faster access to those free files, don't twist that option...

Web Site can be protected with some programs or with some codes, then to hackers it will be complicated to hack that web site.

Programs don't replace updated software and proper security measures. Being hacked is usually the result of the lack of one or both of the aforementioned.

...nevertheless, it's still not a honorable act to hack and destroy, well if you want to prove the lack of security you could simply leave a note or something, but to destroy websites this way just isn't right in my opinion.
