I am at a bit of a loss here. I can see from a couple days of reading here the following:
1) Plenty of things being freely distributed; what "shares" could I possibly provide that would not be leeches or duplicates?
2) There is no specific forum section to inquire about reverse engineering products, unless that is reserved to the "elite" SCG (crackers group.)
3) It would appear those active in the scene today and active here get inundated by the normal idiots that appreciate little but what app they want and as well have zero conception or appreciation as to what goes into providing it for them (patches, cracks, RE, etc.) -> It has ALWAYS BEEN THIS WAY from my experience...
In a nutshell, I cannot find an over abundance (actually nothing I have that is current these days...) of anything that is not or could not already be available here or elsewhere - and it is absolutely retarded to spend the hours involved for some of these RE projects if they have already been covered (properly.)
I searched for "crack request/(s)" as well as [REQ] and found more issues between the scene community and users than any actual valid requests I don't already know are available. Have I missed out on the area that has current relevant requests for apps of value that clearly have never CLEANLY been RE'd?
I like this forum - Admins and Mods (and users too) you should be proud of it, but with a pile of time on my hands and not a lot of bandwidth, I can only see my (albeit dated) skills of any service to the forum if there was a concise place to find what truly is needed. (IE - some are silly enough to request a crack for ADOBE CS5 - WTH???)
I won't ask about joining the SCG directly as it seems pointless as you people do not know me from Adam and my "handle" is not what was ever used in past to do such work.
As a sidebar, while I have Admin'ed forums of even larger size than this, I cannot help but feel as if I am walking on egg-shells here posting anything but links which I have not the bandwidth for and frankly in today's World, plenty are available. -> I am already frightened of this post - I'd like to feel I should not be...
Would someone in the know, perhaps from the SCG reply with a list of apps of great interest to the community here; for after several days of reading here, I can see only one function I might provide and that is in RE, not posting shares (or often what appears the case...) re-posting links to apps/cracks/keygens/patches that either already exist or are abundant EVERYWHERE on the www... I may have plenty of time on my hands, but with the tremendous time investment many of these projects take, I'd rather not return to doing such things if they are an exercise in futility. And BTW, after reading the SCG thread, I can say that a good portion of folks out there are, and always will be truly ungrateful about what people in the scene do, if you cannot accept that, no offense, but you should drop out of the scene and not complain, for you likely should have been aware of the mentality of the masses when you started such activities - it comes with the territory.
Many thanks for any guidance anyone might provide - don't think I broke any of the rules here in posting and I do not believe I stepped on any toes either, but that remains to be seen.
