People found out that I was visiting Hackforums, and some people treat me differently. Any help would be appreciated.

Just tell them it’s a technology forum not exclusive to hacking. Many methods to learn about making money, web site building, seo, and plenty of other useful stuff not related to hacking exactly.

Just tell them you're curious about cyber security and this is one site to learn things like that. If it was me personally I don't give a shit what people around me think. It's my business and I don't do anything illegal. I keep to myself mostly. They don't need to be in my business. I don't need their approval or opinion. How are they treating you differently?

if people found that you visiting hackforums then what's the issue?
why you so worry about it?
its just a name. But it's a learning forum

It's quite cool to have underground activities. Not an issue for me.

Lol i just tell ppl i use it for coding

This is confusing... Just because you browse a social forum you are being treated differently? You're not some experienced hacker just for visiting this forum so it's confusing why hackforums would change peoples perceptions of you? Now if you were participating in other places that really allow Blackhat activity then maybe I would understand? All of your threads are civil/social centered versus coding/hacking centered. I wish you would elaborate more.

Maybe people think it's a blackhat forum without knowing what is writen in here.

You can always say you were curious about this type of stuff, etc etc.

[Nuworld]

So. What, tell them to mind their own business and stop being so rude.

[Pancake Boat]

Tell them to be careful or you'll hack their shit

That's the way to do it XD

[DashPHP]

The name can be misleading so it's a good idea to explain what the forum is.

Barely BH imo.

What you wrote doesn't make any sense, this forum is absolutely not focused on criminal and malicious activities without any kind of ethics or scruples, this is an information forum on any topic and based on hacking. Simply get educated and help the idiots you have next to do it too, or if you want to take advantage of it just say that now you are an expert hacker and that you will fuck all their data haah.

Tell them they better keep their mouth shut, you're a master hacker now. Works all the time, every time!
