Progenic

[ande]

Hello fellow Evilzoners
 
Many of you might know what http://progenic.com is, some of you may not. Progenic is a website for "top" "underground technology" websites.
 
For a long time Evilzone was #1 at progenic and it was a great traffic source.
My question to you is, do we want to put Evilzone back on Progenic?
 
Personally I am not sure, progenic are often associated with lamers and idiots, no offence to anyone.

Please don't, it has become the "number one list of script-kiddie paradise's" and will only give the website bad influence, and even worse members :p

I agree with pillus.
But think about it, how did u started in the underground world??.
I got an idea, we wait an few months\weeks\days untill most respected members got some posts.
And then we lock some of the boards, like zone releases and more premium stuff.
And unluck it when ppl got enough posts , (exluded post count from introduction board (unless topic creator) and random board.  )     so we know we motivate the leechers, but give the newbies an opertunity to find his way into the world of evilzone.
What do you think?

FactionWars has a good idea I agree with him.

Pros: More users online making the forum grow as a whole and therefore making it more widley knowing bringing in more reqpected hackers

Cons: As more people know about the site you will have more and more script kiddies who will post more and more "How duz I hak" thresds. <Should this happen, an instant permaban should be issued.

"How duz I hak" thresds. <Should this happen, an instant permaban should be issued.

I agree
but with the idea of putting stamps on money, and such might draw wrong kind of people (Skiddies), still our "popularity" might rise

I believe its worth the tradeoff, even if per 100 members gained we gain just two or three high quality members,in due time,the skidies will be sorted out.
I would vote in favor,I suggest you start a poll.

True dat.

It should be no problem to sort the skiddies out, as they tend to make threads like "wat, how i hack xD???", for that they'll be rewarded with either a temp or permban imo, but as Netspliter says, make a poll.

Poll added

Why would you want to hack your own facebook? That post has nothing to do with this topic anyway -_- Im the one who voted no

[I_Learning_I]

HEy guys, how do I hack my facebook?

Oh noeeezzzz skids arrived already!! :S
What are we going to do??? xD

On Topic:
I'm not sure either, like FactionWars said would be a good idea and skiddies could be contained, but I remember when I joined ISR, I still have only 10 posts or so because the available areas are boring so it might not work that well.
I think everyone has enough friends to call that will call other friends, and many of us have other websites where we could associate EvilZone as affiliated and would be a good advertising.
On the other hand we could let Evilzone out of Progenic 1 month and see how it was, if we're enough active then we can stay out of progenic, otherwise we can join progenic.
PS: I found some website on progenic only a couple months ago, does that make me a skid? xD

[Stackprotector]

i wuz just wondering how duz i hack

Where is the ban policy ^_^?

[hanorotu]

So it is tied as of right now?

[ande]

So it is tied as of right now?

2x no
2x HELL NO
4x yes


Unless we get at least a 45% more on Yes than no and hell no combined it wont happen

I think progenic would really be a great thing to get EZ more popular and yeah it would lead many skiddies to EZ, but EZ will not be untroubled by skiddies with or without progenic. so I'll vote yes, better use progenic for some time to be more popular, cause EZ will sure be able to handle the skiddie problem easily.. so for that I like Factionwars' idea..

[FuyuKitsune]

Don't bother, Projenic is too easy scam to #1 so the lame sites get top scores.
I remember once when somebody on HackHound put a Projenic voter inside his crypter/dropper, that was pretty funny.
