Actually, writing your own tools has got a lot of people arrested. When you write your own tools just for you and your group, you are writing a calling card, and potentially a way that people can frame you for actions you were not responsible for.
If you use your tool illegally a few times, then that tool is somehow associated with your legal name, here's what will happen:
-You do not pass go
-You do not collect $200
-You go directly to jail
If you use a tool that is available to anyone, you reveal less about yourself. These tools don't need to be dedicated "hacking" tools. In fact it's better if they're designed for legitimate remote administration because those tools are more stable and less backdoored.
If you're going to put yourself at risk by committing computer crimes, try not to make it any easier for people to catch you.
