Uh I can use my Phantasy Star Online Episode I & II characters on official servers (which are off now) or on fan hosted servers (who have a more direct control than even big corporations do and instead of waiting hours for a ban there's often times someone always on to ban them immediately) 

Seriously man give it up on that whole angle for your argument, it really doesn't work, yes individuals make servers to hack cause some people have fun with a modified game, others run a tighter ship than the official servers, and that's what it's all about, choice and freedom, cause nothing is stopping you from using official servers in this case.

You do realize switching like that opens up cheating, you go on a hacking server get all the best items and max level then go back to official ones not to mention piracy since the servers have to actually have the code to run it it's just a mess of piracy and cheating waiting to happen and has happened on pc

You know nothing of what you're talking about and should stop and listen to those that do.  You know that no matter how much you cheat in games like Monster Hunter Tri and Phantasy Star Online even with the best equipment if you still suck at the game you won't be at that much of an advantage, you should ask all the PSP players on MHF2 that use that gamesave on Gamefaqs VNwater  

Opening up doesn't open some gateway to piracy, apparently promising services and then taking them out of your system does anyway those that are currently hacking the PS3 can pirate all they want and still play on official servers, in fact that works for all three consoles, know why?  Cause they don't have ways against that like PC titles, like product keys so no two people with the same key can play online.  

You're fighting a losing battle here, please just stop and listen, thanks.

So you're saying yes everyone can cheat but I don't care? And as far as I'm aware pirated games can't be played online on ps3 atleast not for long 

Then you're not aware at all.  The online system has no way of checking to see if your game is an original or not this is why people created product keys. 

And people will cheat no matter what game it is or how open it is, you're being a bit foolish to think cheating doesn't already happen a lot on PSN with it being closed, lets see, you've got the massive CoD hacks that aren't even taken down anymore cause the people that run those servers, Infinity Ward, doesn't seem to care anymore and there are no updates (if you had some private servers hackers like that would be banned on sight) , though the reason for the lack of updates is probably due to the closed service IE with Sony's locked down service you're only able to allowed so much you can let people download then Sony starts charging the company and they obviously don't like that.

I can go onto the cheating done on Demons Souls as well, but it falls under the Monster Hunter and Phantasy Star logic, you can cheat your way to the top, you still suck at the game
