Latest HBH News:


Recent Events
As most of you have realised, HBH has been running rather slow recently, and also had our hosting suspended. Thankfully, we managed to sort out a resolution and we were kindly given back hosting. To read more about these recent hacks, scroll down. Also on a smaller note, your profiles will now display your points. Another panel has also been added which will display the last active users. If you wish to see HBH develop further, and incorporate your ideas, please post in the forums and we'll get to work!
Missions
Stegano challenges are the latest release on HBH. We have 8 stegano challenges, which are unique to HBH. They seem to have been a great hit, and fun to complete for all members regardless of hacking skill. Real 7 was also released about 1 month ago, despite certain confusion with that level; it has been completed by 3 people (you have to change the admins pass to complete it). Several errors in the challenges have also been fixed, so they should be all running smoothly. If you find an error please contact Grindordie. We are in the process of making a new realistic mission to. For further information visit the website regularly.
Recent hacks
For just over 1 month, HBH has been under constant attack from certain hackers and groups. These attacks have caused the site to become unbearably slow and core parts to the site have been removed. I still cannot understand why they wish to target HBH (probably because it easy for them and requires no skill). Wsoprulz and T-Metal are the main culprits with help from night_shadow. Psychomarine also hacked a site on this server, thus resulting in HBH being closed for his actions. These hacks are beyond our control and HBH cannot prevent them, however the methods being used are in the process of being patched. Some of these hacks originated from coders-united. While they go of destroying a helpful and expanding community, the underlying thing is that they failed building up a decent and active community themselves, so they feel the need to attack HBH, which is.
Ads
HBH has ads in the bottom left panel, and on the "bored?" page. HBH has ads so that we can pay for hosting and saving for our own boxes to use for servers and web wars etc. It would be a great help to our community if you could click these ads occasionally. HBH is a growing community and without funding it is very difficult to function. So please spare 1 second of your time and click 1 advert. Each click roughly earns $0.20 for HBH. Thanks in advance.
Things to come
As mentioned above, a new realistic challenge is being coded. This should be out mid July. Also web wars is going to have a new event soon, which many of you have been so eager to participated in. Check the Web Wars news to for information (see below). Also a zine has been considered and is being planned at the moment.
What can I do to help HBH?
HBH is considering creating a zine, which will include CD's with each monthly issue. However staff are needed to be editors / writers / designers. So if you are interested, please post in the forums. HBH also requires articles and challenges to make a more in-depth site. 90% of challenges submitted by members are included and credit is given to the author. Also, clicking the ads is a great help to HBH. Check the forums for more information.
