Givenchy's Testimonial
Hello my name is Givenchy and I joined Hack Forums on 08-28-2018. I was very young when I signed up and I'm still here.
Why did I join Hack Forums?
When I was young I played Habbo Hotel this is how I found Hack Forums. Someone told me to download Teamviewer. He was going to show me how to get 'super rare' furniture. I was like okay why not? He gave me a website and I had to download the file and run it. It was a keylogger. They never succeeded 😏. Then I googled about 'Keyloggers & RAT's'. I found Hack Forums and joined the forum because I wanted to learn more about it.
Lurking
I never posted that much in my early days on Hack Forums because I was afraid of being judged by other members. I was just lurking in the shadows and reading the tutorials section. I wasn't active for maybe 1 or 1.5 years due school and personal matters.
Groups
The first group that I joined was Beacon. It was a really fun Minecraft group. I held a tournament once with other members. The second group that I joined was Nightfall. Nightfall was quickly rebranded in Instinct. I still love and miss that group. The Lounge was awesome. RIP Instinct.
Why do I stay?
I left Hack Forums for a while but I came back to see how it's going here. I have seen a lot of bullshit on this forum but also a lot of great things. When I came back last time I was in shock that there was a reputation reset but it's better this way. Hack Forums is a good forum with great members where you can learn more about several topics. There are a lot of opportunities but you just have to grab them. I hate it when everybody is bashing Hack Forums and they miss the 'old days'. Hack Forums has to improve and I'm sure that the staff-team know what they are doing.
What have I learned so far?
Never waste your time to toxic people. I had a lot of bad experiences on the marketplace and lost a lot of money. My lesson: nobody can be trusted on the internet. You can joke around with people on this forum but when it comes to money nobody can be trusted. There are a few members who can be trusted but yeah money is money. Always think twice before doing something.
My future on Hack Forums
I do not know what the future will bring for me on this forum. I hope I can achieve some great things.
