You see people, this is what happens when an idiot is on crack..
Go on PirateBay, search for "Over 1100 Ebooks", and download. The best collection of computer-related ebooks I've ever found in one place. Don't bother if your connection sucks, though.
<OT> As for who hates Spyware and who doesn't… really, we don't care. None of us care who all of you hate. So, either get over it, or continue whining to the resounding sound of "who cares?". </OT>

I've seen that torrent before too. Like 10GB or something. I hope it is very well indexed :right:
I can usually find something useful in this place. http://www.51cnnet.net/

This is a good point, he is a sarcastic asshole, but that's also the reason that so many of us like him. From my point of view he does us all a favor. How many people after seeing some of his posts decided to refrain from asking extremely stupid and annoying questions. For example: Will somebody teach me how to h4x0r… Help me hack hotmail plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz… What am I going to do with BackTrack 2 on a lan network with a desktop? (sry, that one slipped) he list goes on.
My point is that spyware helps some people realize that the question they are about to ask is to fucking stupid to risk posting on our forums. Thus making our site a little more pleasant of a place to be. Thank you spyware.

I fail to see how it makes this site more pleasant unless your an asshole and there is some odd asshole connection that I can't possibly see.

We've been over this point multiple times before. The main people that hate Spy are the ones that are constantly in the forums posting stupid questions and being an all-around moron in their mannerisms. If I managed to get to them before he did, then they'd hate me, instead… or any number of people on this site that would GLADLY rip on a dumb thread.

I fail to see who the fuck you are, or why your opinion even matters. The only thoughts you have on an asshole that really matter are the ones where you decide to get your head out of your own. Until you've been here long enough to see the neverending waves of idiots that flow in and out of this site… just shut up and watch other people talk on this topic.

That was stupid. Read above… it applies to you, too, and to anyone else that thinks they know how things should happen around here after being here less than a month.
Everyone whines about how we're assholes to the ignorant people but, when they ask a real question, guess who's answering it? Guess who's helping those people that put enough effort into asking a question properly to earn the effort of an answer? That would be us. Why don't we answer every "i need a mentor cuz i want to learn how to hax" or "how do i do something basic with hacking or an OS" or "how do i use this tool" (or any of the others) thread seriously? Because it gets old regurgitating the same crap that is spread through the forums at various places. If reading through the forums first to make sure your question isn't already posted ISN'T a rule, it should be. Stupidity and laziness is not an excuse for crapping up the forums and, if you choose to, expect to see one of us.

My first few days here were filled with hopes and dreams of becoming the great 'hacker' portrayed in the new Die Hard movie. I was ready to spam the forum with question after ridiculous question. I even brushed up on my leetspeak, so that I could look cool while doing it. (HA!)
But, before posting anything, I decided to take a look at the three mentor requests on the main page. It was there, because of the flames, that I gained a basic understanding of what a hacker was. My dreams of breaking into the Whitehous and taking over Army robots in the future were crushed. Instead, it became a cold hard determination to actually learn. A thirst for knowledge, if you will.
So thanks again. You put me in my place before I could even realize I was out of it. Without you guys, I would definitely still be strolling along the 1337 int3rw3bz looking for someone to hack a friend's hotmail for me.

Thank you spyware.[/quote] Spyware, Fritzo and some others actually did keep me from posting in the forums for the first couple of months (especially after reading the Cancer thread) that I was here, and I'm pretty glad I didn't because I usually researched before I posted or looked deeper into the problem before asking.
