I thought this site was for hackers

[drhowarddrfine]

So far, it seems many here are degenerate crackers who don't know what hacking is. If so, I'm outta here.

Based on the original idea for House of Hackers it looks like there hasn't been enough effort put into networking, team building and collaborating on projects. Currently, House of Hackers seems more like a MySpace for Hackers.

The site is still fairly young. Give it some time for the kids to get bored with it and make sure to check out the groups and individual user entries.

The problem is, kids never get bored with things. This is why we still have kids rampant on IRC, AIM, etc..

As with any project that involves thousands of individuals with their own goals and agendas, it's going to take a while for this site to take off in the direction it was meant to go. Once things get a bit more settled and we establish some ground rules to help form some sortof "leadership" that doesn't exactly say "this is how the site is going and that's final!" but that will help point everyone in the right direction and away from all the "i want to steel mu frends passwerd lolololol"/virus making stuff I think the site will begin to show its true potential. We just need to be patient and let all the trash filter out. In the mean time, check out some of the blogs that individuals write. I don't know about the others here, but I have learned a heck of a lot more in an hour here than with 10 hours searching Google.

its true. i look and see : How do i hack msn? how do i hack hotmail???

does those script kiddies even know what the word hacker mean??

wikipedia (script kiddies now what wikipedia is??? its where you can FIND information) :

een hacker is een persoon die geniet van de intellectuele uitdaging om op een creatieve, onorthodoxe manier aan technische beperkingen te ontsnappen; bijvoorbeeld een goede programmeur, hoewel een hacker niet per se iets met computers hoeft te doen. In deze subculturen wordt het gebruik van de woorden hacker en hacken door en voor computerinbrekers als misbruik van de term gezien; zij worden crackers of krakers genoemd.

In het bijzonder wordt het woord hacker gebruikt in volgende betekenissen:

1. Iemand die een programmeertaal of -omgeving zo goed kent dat hij zonder zichtbare moeite een programma kan schrijven
2. Iemand die een technologie bedenkt, ontwerpt, uitwerkt, implementeert, test, en verbetert
3. Iemand die onconventionele maar adequate oplossingen bedenkt tegen lekken, fouten en problemen van andere aard met behulp van beschikbare middelen
4. Iemand die tracht om via andere dan de officiële wegen een computersysteem binnen te dringen ten einde een beveiligingsprobleem te kunnen aantonen en mogelijk verhelpen

Well ... I'm nowhere now ...

But I am reading up!! Hopefully, I can actually understand some things that are talked about by the end of this year :) !! Hacking interests me ... I wanna know how a program works, how to make it perform better, and of course, make it more secure.

(P.S.- It is even possible to make an existing program run better than it already is? I would probably need to modify something in the code or even tweak its memory management, correct? But isn't that illegal?)

i second misunderstood... even though i am a kid. but i'm not interested in cracking like the cretins that want to break into messenger -_-. i hope they learn what a hacker really is and start thinking maybe cracking into messenger isn't as "cool" as they think it is. i'm still learning basic html and python but but i hope i can become a productive member within a few months. (any opportunities for learning would be greatly appreciated [besides tutorials, i already have those])
