Ok if this post is wierd..
its because I am wired and peppy as **** cuz of coffee, pepsi, and lots of sugar n creamer.. (For the pepsi of course <G> )
N e ways.
I was thinking about my life
I grew up with the wooden spoon. Hick Like town. I was a geek tho through and through (I think its genetic but both my parents are hicks)
Anyways, I wasnt getting along with any of the dumb hick or gang croud. at school... I was failing. (Guess I didnt care)
I look in the news paper and read about Choice 2000.. And ONLINE public Highschool
http://www.choice2000.org
I went to that school which was BBS based (Worldgroup GALACTICOMM)
Gawd it was create.. gotta love the registry of users and the teleconference..
I went to that school for pretty much my whole high school life.
That is how I became a TRUE geek.
After the first year the school went Internet based through the telnet protocal.
that was when it happened.. Boy meets NET. Your life is about to change..
First I was in it for all the dirty pictures.. but after that wore off. And I was on my windows 3.11 for workgroups with TCPmanager, dialing up to a backyard ISP and going to school..
I found many things..
first it was the jolly roger cook book
then the anarchist cookbook..
then it was the warez scene.
and the movie "HACKERS" came out..
I was INSPIRED!
****, I was a geek back then but look at these cool hollywood people. (I know it sounds like a crappy newbie but back then i had no life.. I think I went outside like an hour a year .. if that.. and only at night.. I slept all day and had a windows macro log me into class and log everything while i was sleeping..)
I was truely a VAMPIRE.
Then I found light... SLACKWARE LINUX
Loaded linux up (PAIN IN THE ASS TO CONFIGURE) and learned to love LYNX (No my computer was crap it wouldnt load xwindows not enuff ram)
I found this exploit called BONK (Yes i used to be half script kiddie)
I found bonk because I was looking for code for my C class..
I read the txt file accompanying it on an ftp..
Bonk - Fragmented packet proggie DOS attack of some sort.
I decided to see what it did..
I put my schools TELNET address in the command line.. Ran it..
It quoted the word <BONK> six or seven times on my screen as it sent packets
then stopped
It wrote "SUCCESS" and terminated..
next thing I knew.. My school wasnt answering connections.. Hmm... I sat there thinking "What the hell" and then it hit me.. I was the happiest man in the world.. I CRASHED MY SCHOOL USING LINUX.. Tho it was completely Script kiddie.. it was beautiful.. I was a new man...
Well it lasted an hour until i got a phone call telling me I was suspended.... but hey.. IT WAS WORTH IT!!1
anyways from there my inspiration in learning how to hack became extremely intense..
And thats why I am here...
Ok well there is my life story..
Would love to hear some of you guy's...
heh L8R
