- =============================
- We are a closed community and as such you will require an invite before you can join.
- This means that an existing member must send you an invite link. This does not mean you
- can hassle people in the IRC channel for an invite. We only invite people who we feel
- are beneficial to have in our community. The following list will explain what we want,
- and what we don't accept. However, please remember that we are not total nazis and do
- realise that a lot of people just want to learn from the ground up. We do expect you to
- have done research and read into some security stuff by yourself (there's so much that
- Google can turn up for you) before applying for an invite, though.
- * You must have some experience and skill in the world of systems security.
- Don't be scared away - we just expect a minimum amount of knowledge about systems
- security and/or programming. If you have no experience, go read up on some of these to
- wet your appetite: SQL injection, buffer overflow, stack smashing, md5 hashes, rainbow
- tables, wifi cracking. The world of hacking is a very broad and interesting one.
- * You must have a willingness to learn and accept corrections.
- This means that if you get something wrong and someone points it out, you must accept
- that they might know more than you and could very well be right. Our IRC operators and
- forum staff are highly experienced, so you should listen to them carefully when they
- choose to answer your questions or give you advice.
- * We aren't your personal army.
- If you are only here to ask us to hack something for you (a website, MSN, facebook, AIM,
- etc.), you are not in the right place. We won't do it, and we aren't interested in being
- paid to do it. There are thousands of tutorials out there on how to set up RATs and
- keyloggers and we aren't here to hold your hand or walk you through it. We want people to
- stick around and learn as much as their minds can hold.
- * No leechers.
- If you expect to just leech tools and tutorials from us without bothering to learn how
- things work, we will know from your attitude, and you will not be accepted. We want people
- who want to learn. We don't waste our time helping people who are unwilling to be helped.
- * Script kiddies beware, this is not Hollywood!
- If you think hacking is about running a tool and inputting some target parameters, then
- you're very much mistaken and should be prepared for a nasty shock. Hacking is about
- completely understanding the system and how as much of it works as possible. Knowledge is
- power, and it takes a very long time to work yourself up from the bottom. We are not here
- to hold your hand through this process - you must be willing to spend a lot of time
- reading, learning new things and trying them out for yourself.
- * You should be able to communicate in plain and clear English.
- This includes proper spelling, punctuation and grammar. No txtpsk (shortenings of words like
- 'you' => 'u', 'are' => 'r') or l337 will be considered acceptable. It is also exceedingly
- annoying when people type in full caps or press the enter key so often that we have to read
- fragments of sentences. We realise you may not be a native English speaker, but our forums
- are entirely English speaking so we at least expect some effort!
- * You must have the ability to control yourself and act responsibly.
- We live in a volatile world of spammers, flamers, trolls and idiots. Your interactions reflect
- on us as a community, so if you act like a fuckstick we all look like fucksticks.
- * Do not attempt to bullshit us about your skills or previous work.
- If you don't know what you're talking about, we will see through your crap and we will not
- respond to it nicely. Someone very inexperienced but enthusiastic will be more likely to be
- accepted than someone with moderate experience that attempts to make themselves sound like
- an expert by talking crap.
- * Whilst it is not mandatory, we do prefer it if you know at least one programming language.
- Examples: C, C++, C#, VB.NET, PHP, Java, Python, x86 assembly. If you think HTML is a
- programming language, you are most likely not experienced enough.
- If you think you have what it takes, feel free to ask for an invite on IRC.
