Why do hackers play as Battle Mages?

I think it might be a Khaini thing. Almost every hacker I've seen on Khaini has been a BaM. Haven't seen a single Evan, the others I saw were pirates.

I've heard Khaini has an unusually high number of hackers. I'm pretty sure only botters have access to whatever the Evans use, since Evans are the only hackers I ever see vacuum hacking. I assume if you're approaching it as an individual instead of a fully scripted bot, Battle Mages are more desirable because they don't rely on vacuum hacks.
