The Formalities - HI GUYS ! - ca1n - 06-26-2013
Well, I guess all all start out here as a newcomer to the forum at some stage.
I'm here to learn, to gain knowledge from those who are skilled and willing to pass it on.
I am probably like most of you.. here for my own reasons, yet somebody who enjoys passing on the knowledge and sharing any experience I have that will benefit others and the community as a whole.
I started in the IT world late, but I'm a quick learner. Now at about 30, I had not even owned a computer until about 10 years ago and within not even 10 years since I have gained two diploma's (web design & computer science) and have completed my CCNA. Hardware and networking have been my strong points ...So, coming to this area of the world is just the next level for me i suppose.
I don't have a great deal of experience in hacking, although I spend a lot of time reading and researching the various related topics. So I do have a basic understanding on the fundamentals, ethics, trade tools and utilities.
Pretty much all of my self education has just been doing the reading and following my fingertips, but I guess I could gain a whole lot more and further myself a whole lot better if I were able to receive good information in the first instance in the form of answers to questions when they do pop up, rather than wading through the ocean of shit information that is out there to find them on my own... I'm hoping, that's where you guys come in to the picture!
If there is anybody who may have any recommendations for some good threads or other information/utilities, anything really (other than the sticky's) to point somebody like me towards, that would be greatly appreciated.
