How do people hear about AO?

I was referred by my best friend: jcmcb

But he doesn't come on here anymore, so he sucks.

Its wierd some of the people we get here with their poor social engineering attempts.

What? That's just as bad is people who get into the H word then later down the road beleave that they have anything worth social engineering.

I found AO like everyone else has. I seen a URL then either typed it into my browser or click... click... clicked.

I forget how I heard about it. I think I was reading on happy hacker or something. I think the reason I didn't think it was a hacking site, was for one the motto or whatever of the site. It seemed to have a security theme. I also read for a bit before I actually signed up, so that helped me a lot in knowing it wasn't a hacking forum. Also, i wasn't looking for a place to ask people how to hack and have them tell me. So I guess how I heard about AO and my entry into it was pretty smooth.

I was searching for a fix to a problem I was helping with on a friend's system. I found the correct solution here and after reviewing some of the other posts that this would be a good place to help others, as well as learn more.

Was doing a Google search for some php info and found myself here. Thought I'd stay. =P

I stumbled across Antionline while looking for security forums on Google. I was getting feed up with places like http://www.jinx.com/ and http://www.hackinthebox.org/ where either you got punks asking questions like “How do I Hack” or if you ask a legitimate question none of the “elites” seem to know what you are talking about. So far this it the best security forum system I have found, I think the Antipoint system makes it work well.

We get people here asking "how do you hack" all the time. It seems like a common thing for security forumes.

Trust me, it's not near as bad here as it is at the two places I listed above. Antionline is the best forum system I've found.

I was on a linux site and somebody was asking alot of windows questions. Somebody mentioned this site. Now I have a place to search for any problems I might have in windows.
AO is a good place to search and read up on the security aspect of computers.
