How did you hear about HBH?
Well,
I found myself reading this book called "Confessions of Teenage Hackers" and in the back it had some relative sites. So I joined a few to see what's going on and somewhere I seen a link to this place and here I am. =) (By the way; I am not a teenager. I just actually turned 22; January 23rd 2006.)
What about you?

LOL Bobby :)
Oh, and Grind - you sound like the same sort of reader as me… one that doesn't read many books ;) I definitely recommend a book called "The Blue Nowhere" by Jeffery Deaver (I recommend it to everyone here). Really good read that I think most of us would like.
As for finding Hellbound - I found it through H2H after joining their site for the WebWars thing (though I no longer have any real interest in H2H as HBH covers everything they have and more), hehe.
I'm 17 currently - 18 in April.
Hi, I don't remember how I found HBH… maybe from hackerthreads.org or maybe google. The other site was mentioned to me by a friend. Well,then you had to mail Mr. Cheese to join. On checking my GMail archives I found that I mailed him on May 17, 2005 :D asking him to let me join HBH. Then I think it didn't have challenges or anything. I forgot about it. Then many months after that I found Mod-X.I got interested in security challenges and found other challenge sites through google. then I stumbled upon HBH again. I joined, did some challenges. I was doing many chall sites at a time, so I went away for sometime. When I tried after a month or so, HBH was down. Then from last month or so, I have been more active here. I am 16 BTW, 17 this March :D
