I was wanting to know if any of you might now of any hacking message forums. This is not what you think. Some AO newbie that wants to learn how to hack. I am just curious about how hackers communicate like us security folk. I want to visit, read, give my two cents and leave. Ill visit all that I get a reply from and then post my top favorites for educational purposes. Thanx
"so i go into this bakery and ask, 'do you know of any good bakerys around here?'"
This *is* a hacking/security site mate - if your looking for other sources id suggest various IRC networks/channels and our best friend/deity http://www.google.com :)
i agree with abtronic... you will not find a better place to chat about hacking and security then here... if you mean sites that are run by people with a more destructive nature then here then most "hacking" sites are full of newbies talking about sub-7 and little script kiddies who are asking things like "how do i hack hotmail?" here at ao we tried to get rid of that level of user which is why were are a "security" site not a "hacking" site. but generally this is a very similar thing, we just have good info here with no malicious intent...

Propaganda i think the best thing would be deleting this thread before well you know , you get negative points....
This is a very good site, but if you want to see what *cough* ub3r hackers talk about, either visit any one of the alt.* forums from here, or goto them via IRC.
To get there from this site, on the main page at the bottom click [Visit the discussion forums] then at the bottom again, find Public Discussion Forums, click any of the alt.* ones. On IRC just connect to any of those alt.* names.
**Remember, do not follow anything you hear in these places, there is a good chance it will hurt you or others and that it is just a lie**
Memory > I think that he means Black Hat (ub3r 1337) hackers.
Well... we have some malicious intent... *kill -9* the s.kiddies, virus writers and spammers... ;)Quote:

neworder.box.sk is the only remotely decent security site besides AO. But, I'm sorry to say, they pale in comparison.
Personaly I think he has a good point. As a sysadmin its a very good idea to keep tabs on the black hat boards, so lets see how hard I get pounded for this small list (please fell free to add)
torjanfordge.com
astalavesta.box.sk
http://www.attrition.org/ (out dated hasn't been matained for a while, this may get me negs as attrition and the founders of AO have a long and murky history)
packetstormsecurity.org
alt.2600*/2600.com
alt.virus*
phrack.org
Unfortunitly I lost touch for a couple of years s a lot of the sites I used vanished and I havn't replenished yet, any others out there?
You have made a little misspelling bballad: astalavesta.box.sk is in fact astalavista.box.sk
It is a part of the boxnetwork which also contain Neworder.box.sk (not also good than AO, I agree with you Infosecguru, but sometimes interesting).
But I think that the majority of real ones (high levels) are more dealing with their own ring of personal friends or on "serious" sites like securityfocus.com
A funnier interpretation would be that hackers are either nonsocial people either already on AO ;)
Thanx bballad, abtronic I dont like your smart alliac attitude. You read my question like I needed to know something. See, your analogy is off, if I went into a bakery to by bread I would ask him "Do you know were I can find a store that sells jelly". See, it makes the bread taste better. The best security admin is an ex hacker.
Propaganda,
Way to make a stand buddy...don't let these guys getcha down. I could bet some of the newbies(you or I) are just as smart as the seniors.
Scatty
Haha...just remember that 'senior' is just a title you get because of how much you post. It doesn't mean you know anything.
And then there are people like me who no matter how often I post, I'm stuck in the perpetual noob state......
Why are you still a noob. Your full of Greenies ma boy!
Scat
Good question Propaganda! , lots of lame ones around (sites and ignorant people) www.blackcode.com - low traffic ,darker than here but has some smart people www.hackers.com - got this one from www.insecure.org and had high hopes as Fyodor recommends it ,but its full of lamer 12 yearolds. Slim pickens :(
Don't let the title fool you, it's due to a coding glitch if my memory serves me correctly. Juridian is a senior in my book...he just doesn't post alot. As for the greenies, don't let them influence your opinion of anyone. I've got a ton of them and I've got the mentality of a rock compared to some of the other members here.Quote:
'nuff said.
lumpyporridge - heh. www.hackers.com wow I haven't seen that in a while. That was where Silicon Toad and the Infinity Void, and all the "old school" folks went a long time ago. There were some big plans for that site and that group, but nothing ever happened to my knowledge.
Silicon Toad, now that's a name that should take a lot of you old timers back a ways.
As far as the original post goes, I don't spend a lot of time on message boards. I do read email lists and this site a lot. Then there are "news" sites like Security Focus and The Register that I check out, but other than those it's all IRC and talking to folks there.
there was blacksun.box.sk once but i think they moved to irc channel now
irc.freenode.net #bsrf
haven't been there for quite sometime now... so not sure this is current or not.
I thank lumpyporridge and Salleh for really taking the time to read my question.
And scat for beleiveing in me for who I am (tear, tear) I told myself I wasnt going to cry.
