These question is off topic, I realize this, but please bear with me. 1. What exactly defines a "script kiddie"? 2. Does using a port scanner make you a "script kiddie" since you yourself did not write the code?
Using a tool somebody else wrote in an enlightened manner is good judgement and a demonstration of code reuse. Waving a dead chicken exploit without understanding it is a script kiddie.
