HBH NEEDS your help
as mentioned in the news post, HBH faces a very difficult time ahead.
people seem intent on bringing HBH down. Over the next few days im going to re-script the functions i added and also update further legal things, (move banner to the left. have the isthislegal.php in a larger hyperlink o right of banner) because apparnetly the fucktards vision is the same length as their cocks and cant move their eyes 2 inches down to read the important links i made in red hyperlinks.
basically the only option HBH has to self host, or move to a server in holland / russia / sweden etc.
Im willing to donate myself a very very large donations of £100 to get HBH setup once and for all. However £100 is not the full amount we need.
Sadly it is only a matter of time before HBH goes down again, and we are running out of options. This server has to be setup practically instantly. I fear if HBH goes down again, theres a chance it wont return. This is a urgent issue.
HBH NEEDS YOUR HELP.
If i can donate £100 myself which is basically all the money in my bank account, then im sure others can donate as little as £1. Every little will help. Large donations will not go unrewarded. If every active member donated just £1 we could raise nearly $1000.
If you have ever intended on buying a shirt, or E-Membership, i cant stress how important it is that you do it now.
HBH has the potential and is already on its way to becomming the best and largest website in his subject area. Lets make HBH live on.

I just bought another T-shirt. Also I encourage others to do so as well. You have used HBH to learn some skills and to keep you learning. I now ask all of you that have ever got something out of HBH to donate now. Weather it is 1 dollar or 100. Buy a t-shirt or buy an e-membership. What ever it takes to keep HBH alive. I want to be able to wake up tomarrow and still know that HBH will be here when I Type in hellboundhackers.org
Mr_Cheese, I would like to donate but I live in the U.S. and I am 13, and I dont have a credit card to use on paypal or such. I would mail you the cash but the problem is that it may not arrive to you soon enough.
Not to mention a majority of the community on HBH are teenagers Any other options we have?
I've tried…. I'll tell you how it works.. My grandma is a bitch, when my mom and dad were at the beginning of the divorice my mom was brainwashed by my grandma,my grandma told my mom that is always right when it comes to dealing with kids. Now she has this big ego where she thinks she is right over anyone and she can argue the facts.
I've left a few of the articles open on my computer while I was outside looking in through the window (which is a bad idea because I have a major amount of private shit on my computer)… she read them'
** edited because of bad grammer*
Elitest_00 just keylog your computer and get her password. Then buy it and give her the money straight after proclaiming that she told you her password ages ago and your paying for it anyway :D
Peoples keep telling others you know about HBH. I'll buy membership or two t-shirts soon, if my offer isnt taken up on by ceddar. ;)
okay. now i really have to get this bank account setup. this weekend.
i have $300 lying around begging for an Ipod. but i can wait a few more weeks when i get paid $750 for 8 hours of work in one day.
I was gonna get an ipod. But i see HBH requires some help. I will be trying to set everything up so that I can donate to HBH. KEYWORD trying. half will go to HBH and the other will be used for zine. I hope that will help HBH in the long run. :)
We shouldn't have to advertise HBH. That was one of the downfalls to HTS. All these kids want to learn how to hack so they can hack their friends computers and shit. Its a bad idea, it will bring more noobs to the site saying "t3ac8 m3 h0w 2 haxx0r!" What we need to do is get more skilled hackers and build a huge community of superior knowledge and a databse of information.
Your claiming 99% of people here have no talent, so to be the 1% that HAS talent is going to be the in the top 93 hackers to have talent. 93 out of 9349 people have talent?
The best place to advertise would be another hacking site.
Advertising on regular sites would bring in loads of n00bs, not newbies, n00bs. And our ads would be terminated on other sites, because of negative stereotypes
I am a newbie. A major gigantic un-talented one. And even so I'm not here to learn to hax00r. I really do not have the money, but saying that about noobs, newbies, wathever, is just stereotyping as the the dumbass hosts did to HBH. As your mothers does to you. People have to start somewhere, right? Weren't you a newbie? ;) I'm not tryng to mess with no one, but come one Elitest_00, be reasonable. I really wish I could do more fore HBH:(. Peace
No, I said noobs.
Newbies are good, they require help like everyone. I am talking about the noobs, as I stated before in the other posts. Let me make myself clear, NEWBIES are GOOD, N00BS are BAD. If you dont know the difference between a noob and a newbie look it up. 0 To be a noob you have to prove your one. if u rite lik dis and wunt to haxx0r teh gov den u r a nuub.
Everyone was a newbie at first. I'm not discriminating against them, if we had more newbies who are urged to learn and be like us the community would grow.
Now as I stated in the previous post we would get a small amount of newbies, a large amount of noobs who want to haxz0r111, and a load of complaints from idiots who stereotype hackers.
If you still dont get where I am coming from go fuck yourself up the ass.
First of all, stop posting about noobs, they were talking about having advertisments on the site to make money, not advertise the site, that would make no money.
I have a paypal account and am getting paid tommorow, well, later today. But i'm not sure if the payment will go through in time. My bank account takes a long time to transfer money to paypal. How much time are we talking?
What this thread should be about other than to record donations should be to discus methods of fundraising.
The problem as I see it is that people have the money but no way to transmit it, ie too young/no paypal
My solution to this would be to set up a system where it would be possible for the money (cash) disguised as letters (its not reccommended to send cash through the post) to Mr_Cheese.
Just my 5 cents. I wish I had a way of putting more into my PP at the moment but the majority of my money is in cash and in my Non-paypal account
dunno if its a HBH member or not, but someone has just purchased a months worth of ads on HBH (the green adverts).
This is a great oppurtunity. Because if other advertisers see that this site generates lots of clicks etc, then they will be more inclined to purchased the ads etc, and the current advertiser will be satisfied with the click level and want to purchase more!
hint taken?
Yeah mr. Elitest_00, you are totaly right! Guys like you really want to help guys like me. Please help me to l33t lik u du! Did I disrespect you? Was I, at anytime, rude? Learn manners before posting in foruns you immature kid. I was making my point, that's all. If you don't want to, don't understand what I say, or how I say, or can't argue, it's yout problem, but I think, that as hacker that you are, that is trying to improve people's image about hackers, you don't gain anything by being such a rude kid.
Peace
Post Edited**
Look up the difference between n00b and newbie. thousandtoone used the word newb, which is the reason everyone is on a different page. I wasn't trying to be rude, but I stated the difference between noobs and newbies at least twice, which is why I am pissed. Look it up. I never said newbies shouldn't be aloud on HBH, and if I did please point it out to me.
lol, apparently the new versions do!
Anyways I hope to update my exclusive membership and donate a few pounds before next week. This is a sad sad situation :(
<!– If anyone wants to hear my take on noob well all I have to say to you is take a long walk of a short cliff! I love everyone equally anything else takes too much effort–>
Yeah hes right….
My idea to make HBH grow was when I was finishing over javascript challenges I couldn't find any of the fuckin' codes I was looking for on the web and it made me frustrated. I was always directed to the hackthissite javascript tutorial. I was thinking we all could start developing articles for different languages which would attract hackers that dont know about HBH and build our database of information. I'm working on one for javascript injections at the moment so pm or msn me anything helpful for javascript
i have an idea.. dun kno if its legel though… i mean.. technically its legal.. hbh hosts a site for every1 of us, we put ads(also make bank accounts or whatever we need 2 get t3h $) and afterwards we click each on the other's ads, make money, then send them 2 cheese.
*never applyed this and is just an idea. if anything illegal or suspicious please delete my post
there was this one guy who had a website and he only had ads on it. and he would sell ads. 10 pixel was $1 for each month. so a basic add is maybe 1000pixels which would equal… $100 a mnth. this site had nothing but ads. totalling to 1,000,000 ads. the guy became a millionaire.
something like that would roll in the cash :)
Think!: lets say we are 1000 ppl, which means few gigs of hdd space on webserver :), 9995 clicks for each of us if we register where cheese registered for ( hell knos where that is..) so its (9995)/(how many clicks needed for 1 dollar)= LOTS OF $$ (even if we donate just 50% of earnings.. its 2 much..
:O… that's not good ..but after all whe arent making anything wrong.. we are just interpreting the law 2 soot our needs :matey: the would never kno.. all we must do is reg for the ads.. copy the urls and then we paste them into the batch files.. its exactly the same as telling ppl 2 click ads on you site..
Just make a new page on hbh and put the ad there, I bet that most people here would go there.
[edit]
Google hate hackers, they don't allow any site who have their ads to have anything related with hacking or guns or anything else which is illegal.
A swedish site had to take down a forum for n00bs who want help to install netbus :P
[/edit]
Instead of all of this ad stuff, here are some probable solutions to HBH's money needs.
1.)Exclusive Membership
Exclusive Membership could be the one thing that could raise lots of money. Right now there is only about 100 exclusive members out of 12,000 people. The reason not many people are buying exclusive membership is because they don't really need it. I think that if you are not an exclusive member, you should only be allowed to do the basic missions and a few other missions, and access only parts of the forums. This is kinda like the whole Runescape thing if anyone knows what I'm talking about. You get addicted to the game, and there are so many additional features with exclusive members that you have to buy it. This idea should be encorporated into HBH. With everyone who is an active user buying exclusive membership, HBH would have plenty of money. Also I think the price for exclusive membership should be raised to at least $3.00, dedicated members of HBH would be willing to pay.
2.)Advertising
Not as in HBH getting money for hosting ads, but as in we advertise HBH. HBH should be the first site people come to when they think of hacking, not HTS. HBH is a much better community than HTS with better challenges and admins. This doesnt mean that HBH will have to pay for banners and ads on other sites. I think all members of HBH should be spreading the word to friends through emails, AIM, or just talking to them. I right now, have a lot of people in my school interested in HBH and the word is being spread. So send out those emails, link to HBH on your sites, and spread the word!

That is true, but come on 3 dollars a month. I think you could work something out. Also, almost all of your parents should have a paypal account and if they don't ask them to set one up. It takes like 5 min and its really easy.
Also mailing the cash could work out if Mr_Cheese would be willing to do it.
I'd personally donate as much as I could afford, but at the moment I'm inbetween jobs. If HBH needs any support in any other way, I'll gladly oblige to help.
If HBH never returns, then a large piece of everyone that has grown with this site will be issing, and it's only one more win for the man trying to keep us from knowledge that should easily be free to everyone.
Also Mr_Cheese, I have been reading up on page ranks and have figured out how to make HBH get a really high page ranking. That way when someone types in the keyword "Hack" in google hackthissite will not be the first site shown. (I couldnt even find HBH going through all the pages of links with the keyword Hack). From now on, my project will be to get HBH a high page ranking. If anyone else would like to join, there are several good articles on "How to increase you page rank" (GOOGLE IT), and eventually HBH will be even bigger that HTS
E-Membership isnt paying to use HBH, its just paying a small amount to hlep ut HBH, and in exchange you get a few nifty features that make your HBH life a little more easier and personal.
and in regards to raising the price of EM…i'll give it a good think about and we can discuss it in the EM forum for current members to join in.
and TrueHacker, send me a email about your project and give me a few more details and we'll get to work.

NO WAY! I was a victim of the entire Runescape thing, still play it occasionally =\ but thanks to hbh I spend more of my time actually learning than wasting my time with RS (and thanks to friends who donate old computers/parts for the mutantbeast in my room)
I would donate, but I don't have paypal (i'm 16…), my parents hate spending money over internet for stuff they don't absolutely have to have, and my dad's rather against "hacking" ('till he gets a virus and comes crying to me to fix it :( )
Cheese, I'd like a t-shirt… is it possible to get a 3XL…? I might be able to get my mom to let me buy a shirt, as I need some new ones anyway… It would be great if it were possible to send money through the post, though, as many people (including me) can't send it through better channels due to parents/age, etc.
