No it's not. That's the whole point of that post you replied to as if he's picking Hell-met's views. Unintended covers a whole lot more ground than exploit. Heck, way back in Doom's days, rocket jumping was unintended, but not considered an exploit. Double conc jumping in QTF was unintended, but not considered an exploit. At one time, crouch jumping's features were unintended, but not an exploit.
Just because the intention is different from the result (ie, unintended), doesn't mean that it's an exploit.
Wikipedia Wrote:An exploit (from the same word in the French language, meaning "achievement", or "accomplishment") is a piece of software, a chunk of data, or sequence of commands that take advantage of a bug, glitch or vulnerability in order to cause unintended or unanticipated behavior to occur on computer software, hardware, or something electronic (usually computerised).
Anything you weren't supposed to do that causes unintended behavior is an exploit. Learn motherfucking English.
