First time coming back to the forum in 15 years - where should I start?

Hi yall ✌

It's been such a long time since I've delved into the world of hacking and I have no idea where to start.

My computer became filled with viruses from downloading backdoored hostbooters etc. back then which I definitely DON'T want to happen again.

I guess learning some new hobbies would be pretty cool, like coding, or some hacking stuff with minimal risk. I guess if I could make money from these ventures, that would also make me happy.

I don't know! I don't know where to start or how to get involved.

I'm sorry if this post makes me sound like a little b* I swear I'm not (most of the time!)
First and foremost, welcome back!

Honestly your best bet is just exploring the forum. Seems there is a lot you may be curious about or interested in so it's just a matter of looking around and finding those things that stick out to you.

Hope you enjoy your stay!

Yes, I used to go by iNFiNitY - or some variation of that... possibly also dudeson555? I would frequent the botnet forums. Usually, being as young as I was, my posts would get moved to different forums as they were mostly unrelated and probably looked like spam to most folks. I remember being told "use the search function" quite frequently, lol. One thing I remember specifically was starting a huge beef with some dude on the forum that I think was pretty well known, seemed to be at least, and Omniscient banned him for something because of our argument. Idk if he was just complaining too much or he said some hurtful stuff, but that one sticks out for me for sure

I had a pretty cool sig I probably made myself in some cracked version of photoshop (didn't come to find GIMP until years later), that had Lil Wayne in it.

All the essential stuff of the time - Cain and Abel, XR 1.4, cracked Norton, Ubuntu, half assing SQL injections and IRC botnet builders.

Maybe if you search your names up you'll find some old posts. Either way, that's cool you have some memories from those days at least 😎
