HackForums going downhill ? HackForums becoming a monetizing forum? WTF.

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?
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.
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.
HF is the lounge, random bullshit, e-whoring, an unregulated marketplace where you have a 90% chance of being scammed, ebook scams, crying about paypal limitations, suicide threads, and lots and lots of sad depressed loser kids.

But if I state that your signature's message is invalid, incorrect and/or otherwise flawed then, according to your signature itself, I am correct. As such, it contradicts itself.
Well let me ask you all something? Omni doesn't have to remove anything from the site nor modify it without a Seize and Desist order (I'm pretty sure), and if the orders do exist it should be made public.
Hack Forums? You mean Market Forums? There you go, you now have my opinion.

Well if you interpret the signature correctly and notice the sarcasm then you'll understand.

My post was a sarcastic joke as well. I enjoy picking things apart sometimes. It's a side effect of over-analyzing everything.

Not all the members were "fuckwits"; A forum that is financially stable and has a substantial amount of income should be able to moderate said "fuckwits" and take necessary action to enforce rules and allow policy abiding members to continue discussion. Why punish all for only a few "fuckwits" mistakes? 🤨
Ok for starts Omni is FBI LOL! Dude he was also warned by the feds that shit needs to get cleaned up or this shit is going down.

So we had to clean up. I miss talking a lot of blackhacktivity but now the feds are on every thread
every account
every PM.
