One thing I've learned from HackFourms over time?

Don't worry what people think of you, or their status.

When I first showed up here sometime around January 2014, I was quite intimidated. I was a lot dumber and younger than I am today. In numbers, it may only be three years, but in experience, it has felt like my entire lifetime.
I originally began looking at all these shiny user tags, and the respect some people gave themselves, bringing a feeling of inadequacy. There were people bragging about the thousands of dollars they just schemed, advertising the rich empires they stood upon, and talking about their hundreds of friends and their stories. I had none of those qualities, hell, I still don't. Yet now I feel equal to everyone on this forum. Why? Because I'm human. You're human, and that is all there is to it.

Yeah sure, I get it, it's a pretty stupid cliche to bring out the "We're all human" card, but really. What makes anyone better or worst than me? Sure you may have more money, you may have more friends or experiences. But, Why do I care what you have done? Why should anyone put you above themselves when in most cases, you could not exist, and it would not change their lives at all.

So if you are a member of this forum, and look at everyone else with a sense of anxiety. If you question yourself asking "How can I ever get there?". Just don't. Seriously, don't. If you want to learn a particular skill, then go out and learn it. If you want more money, learn how to make more money. Stop caring what other people think of you, and what you think of them and their titles.
The only thing that matters, in the end, is how you view your life on your deathbed, not anyone else's. So you might as well start now, and stop caring about other's lives.

I've learned that Crack Forums would be a better name for this site.

There are a couple of reasons for this.

First, there is the practical cause. Whatever is left of security-related computing discussion and activity does not fit the true definition of hacking. A better term for this is cracking.

Second, there is the metaphorical cause. This website is extremely addicting for autistic teenagers who lack both a social life and a technical understanding of computing to any substantial depth. This addiction is very similar in principle to the addiction crack users have to crack.

These are the core messages outlined by the Crack Forums movement, which is a non-profit organization that I founded.

It does not mean a lot to me but I am grateful for the up-to-date resources it used to contain and its then knowledgeable member base. This forum was my stepping stone when I first started to venture computer security and was the congregation of like minds.

well i know this account seems knew but really ive been here for a really long time, since 2012. my old account got stolen, god knows how.
Ive learned so much from this community!
i learned what are RAT's and keyloggers, how they are used. good methods for spreading, and how to get mostly pedophiles victims lmao. ive learned SQLi and alot of html. i learned all about phising and how to avoid it, aswell as ripping sites and bruteforcing.
i got really bad luck and an old forum i was registered on was hacked, db got published, and my account got taken.
this community was nothing but good to me, kind and great and i couldnt repay it enough yet.

The one thing I have learnt about hackforums is that every section has their own little group, I have also learnt how to crack and dox, as you can probably see by my recent threads :D My favourite part about hackforums is being able to actually those who are in need under the subforum that Im normally active on which is the Private Investigation Methods forum. I get a warm feeling known I have help someone.

Anyways posting to enter GL TO ALL

Posting to enter for this.

The reason HF means a lot to me is because it's a place where I can come and rant about things or have a quick laugh. It's also where I learned on how to grow social media accounts. It's a place where I can learn whatever I set my mind to. We have such a broad forum that pretty much anything I want to learn I can find here.

I've learned a lot throughout my time here on HackForums, I joined when I was 14 years old, and knew nothing about the site, about the people on here, and barely posted. I started posting around November of 2016, from 4 posts, now I've made it to almost about 3000 posts, that's not what it is about though, I've learned a lot like I said, whether that being more of the English language, some good tips from other members, where other members come from, etc.. It's been a great journey here on HackForums, and it will only be better as time goes on.

Thanks for hosting this giveaway Views, I really appreciate it!

I will keep this short and sweet. I'm using HF as a tool to learn coding and better understand it than I normally would. I've used it to make my credit card payments at time when things were tight. I've loved this site even with all the cancerous members that join I love this place.
