(Request) Social engineering fails - Ninjavanish123 - 11-24-2022

I don't exactly know where this thread is supposed to go

Basically can we get a sub forum for social engineering or 2 to be exact one for success and one for fails

That way we can all learn from each other success and fails and improve if needed

Moved from The Lounge to Suggestions.

I don't post much in the section, but if @mothered is interested it's something that can be done. It does take effort to move threads and I'm not sure it's necessary.

Given the activity In the Social Engineering forum Is quite huge, sifting through, Identifying and segregating every thread Into success and failures will be a very time-consuming process.

Agreed.

Not the only means the section could be divided either. Could be by values, companies, methodologies,...

Would be wasted effort when people are likely to just post in the main section anyway.

That's the main Issue - whether members exercise good judgement and post In the correct forum.

The cons outweigh the pros by far.

I agree.

I don't suggest implementing this suggestion.

How about simply adding in thread prefixes that users can apply to their threads at their discretion. This way you can have an instant visual indicator of what 'section' a particular post belongs to without the need for sorting through the threads manually.

Everyone always post on the main section. Even I he days I was active in magic and astro and others 15yrs ago. Use the search bar and ull find the same thing ur proposing.

It's a good suggestion.

Some may not if there are requirements for the main section - checks and balances.
