ooh.... dangerous. Don't be calling a script kiddie a hacker too loudly. Hacker's don't take too kindly to that.

A script kiddie takes a script that has already been written, and modifies it a bit to work to their needs and then puts it into irc chat room or news groups for people to download and run... thus giving the script kiddie a back door into their machine.
There's no real hacking involved.

Performing a DDOS on a server does not give you access to the server.. you get no info out of it. So it's not really hacking... sure it costs lots of money to the server, but there's no real hacking involved.
