I got scammed today in $70, unfortunately, only later I found out this whole forum is rigged with scammers, including its owner. After I got scammed, I replied to the scammer thread, but my message was deleted and my username was blocked. I insist everyone avoid this forum, it's now just a place of scammers and newbies.

This is a site full om scammers. If "admin" is notified, then your account is closed down. The owner of the website is a lousy liar and the most lousy person i have ever come in contact with
UPDATE:
I don't care what message I got as long you are protecting scammers on your website and shut down accounts that mention this problem.......your exact word was. You don't want to take this BS and accusations from my side and shut down my account afterwards. You are the most lousy and most lousy excuse for a human being that I have ever come across

This forum is full of scammers. Even the customer service and the administrators are scammers. I bought a course for 39$ and received nothing. Contacted support and the seller. Next day they locked my account saying that I violated the rules of the forum. DO NOT USE IT They will rip your money off!
Basically a person who's just trying to obtain a modded Intel HD 2000 driver to fix OpenGL errors for my friend's laptop. The specific driver all linked to this website for it's download link, whenever article that was, third-party or not, the "real" download link have never been shown outside this website.
Main problem is this website is putting access denied errors on me and after many research came to conclusion that the owner & admins of this website is not only treating bad to many of it's members, they also always block many countries & ISPs just because of a specific botnet DDOSing this website. No further thinking at all. Like if someone like only a micro of 300 millions of people is attacking your website, you decided to block the innocent 300 millions too? Just because they live in the same country as the attacker while most people doesn't even know how to attack websites? Terrible.
Good thing I found the alternative Intel HD 2000 driver other than the version from this website. Finally my friend's laptop can do OpenGL without major issues anymore.
Note: This website also blocked VPNs, not even my VPN (starts from word N) can bypass the block.

The owners are paid to hush people, they aren’t for the members and let people get scammed because they get a cut of the money. Literally a huge scam and are just a !$*@ website. DO NOT USE THIS SITE. FIND ANOTHER ONE. The members make the website, not the admins so go to another site, this one is full of scams

At 55 years old Omni is still very immature. Those of us in Denmark do not care about your garbage.
He spends all his time mindlessly lapping up every bit of propaganda that the Trump campaign put online for him to gobble up like the little sheep he is and he believes every ridiculous lie he sees on a YouTube video. Then he bans sane "clients" of his who post anything real. I was buying ads and awards before I found out what a mental case he is and I asked him for a vacation ban two weeks ago.
Omni has the same massive ego that Trump has just over owning a dumb little message board. You'd think he'd be trying to earn the most money for his kids but instead he throws money down the toilet so he can be a baby and believes every ridiculous conspiracy theory he rwatches on a video.
OMni hates the USA and hates free speech. He believes Trump that the USA sucks and that he sholuldn't respect the US intelligence agencies, it's FBI or a it's Constitution because Trump told him to hate it all .
OK you were brainwashed to hate your own country for the ego of a psychopathic billionaire but your members from Denmark are sick of hearing about it.

Bad management who doesn't know how to run a community.
Only reason the community is running is because the users of the site itself earn money.
The management disagree with most idea's in an immature way. If they don't like your suggestion this guy calling himself Omniscient bans you right away.
Omniscient feels like he's the god of the internet. Thinks his tweets matter, thinks his opinion are no opinions but facts, thinks users like him.. meanwhile they're talking nice to him to keep their own a*ses safe.
The owner is a selfish old guy who basically is running around the platform ruining all good. Acts like he's involved in the community, meanwhile the banhammer always has the last word.
Even in political discussions you can't tell him your opinion or he'll ban you.
You can't call that a community. That's like a site ran by a 13 years old from mom's basement who sees every argument as a bully.

Site is managed by immature people who ban without any explanation. Don't bother wasting your time there. They protect their scammers well.
Edit: Took them only 4 years to reply, only to prove my point.

This forum allows scammers to stay unpunished and to continue scamming their users. I got scammed by premium member from there and no one of their staff or admins cares for that. And after making complain topic for it, they even made fun of me like it's my fault.
This site was good at their beginning, a decade ago. Now it's toxic like hell, with full of criminals, scammers and negative energy.
Their admins and staff team behave like sadistic sociopaths, without any kindness, empathy or proper human behavior.

Scammers.
Hackforums is a low-quality forum that eats his customers for breakfast. What does this mean? It means they don’t care if you are a good customer or not if you are selling a malware or if you sell something illegal. A Forum full with scammers, A forum that even the admin and the moderators make deals with scammers to win money!
There was a seller with the name nCuX0 a big scammer that was selling a package (garbage)with tutorials, tools, botnets, and all those tools have no names. If you ask him what are you selling there he will never answer to you.
I remember joining this forum around 2014, back when I was a freshman in high school. I was only there to get something quickly than never return but after some browsing I became hooked. I became involved with the community, made many lifetime friends, picked up so many skillsets and truly became someone who I could never imagine myself becoming. Here I am 5 years later, still hooked and sometimes wishing that I had found this place even sooner.
I joined HF 10 years when I first began my foray into the tech world. I started on the forum by learning programming (started with Python). 10 years of close community support and I am now working full time as a software developer. I am able to talk to others to help improve my own skills. I'm able to hire quality services for graphics and design. I'm able to participate in a community of like-minded individuals. HF has been a great site for me the past 10 years and I hope to contribute for many more years to come.
I've been a member of the forum for 5 years now. It's one of the greatest communities i've been a part of. Even if you are not looking to learn how to hack you will at least learn how to protect yourself from that.
Come for hacking, stay for the community.
