HackForums going downhill ? HackForums becoming a monetizing forum? WTF. - VisualComplex - May 4, 2014

My friend was a member of hackforums back in 2010 and quit in 2013, I
used to design his threads and I would always explore around HF with
his account but over the years I've noticed that Hackforums seems to
be going down the drain, we used to have real Hacking discussion,
account sellings, logins, rats, ddosers "STRESS TESTERS -___-" and social engineering, wtf happend to hackforums, it's now "Educational
hacking forums with limited and censored resources.".

What do you guys think?

There will never be actual hacking back on HF. The feds are lurking...

Sorry buddy, but Omniscient wants the forum more clean. He was warned (from what I know) for having the discussion of blackhat activity. It still has discussions of hacking, but it has many other uses.

Damn, you have more reputation than posts.

+Respect.

I like it how it is now. It's a community based around making money online. You can chill in the lounge, talk money in other parts, talk social media, etc. It's kinda just one big online community.

With increasing popularity comes increasing nonsense in any online community. That said, HF has it's fair share. There is still a lot of quality to the site if you go to the right people and places. The site, like any other, is really what you make of it.

Did you read the first sentence "My friend was a member of hackforums back in 2010 and quit in 2013, I

The reason why their isn't that much blackhat stuff if because the Fed are on here and basically tell Omni to take stuff out of his website. For example, he removed BetaBot from HF because Feds said it was Fraud.

True sarcasm that accurately describes the majority of members on this forum. You told me it was fine to use it a few months ago.

When you're running a website that makes you $5,000-$10,000 a day, you're gonna have to make it more cleaner.
