First off @Lucridous is a bitch for not having better judgment and getting scammed. ***** is safe. Download links are your choice to click and them exe files are your choice to extract and run. But said in most chats run it in a vm & has a virustotal usually. Has a art community side along with mainly technology. I mean if you are expecting blackhats to give you a cup of tea and a wet kiss think about what they do. All you need is common sense and you are set to join and look around :)

The website in itself has room for many positive things, such as the discussion of various 'hacking' methods, whitehat, greyhat and blackhat, however, that is completely ruined when a vast majority of the members are incompetent, immature and plain sketchy. There are scam reports on staff members that are never resolved and essentially overlooked, the owner of the website is corrupt as well as despicable, and most of the staff members (keyword most) are plain power hungry. They try to enforce rules that they do not list in their help documents and rules, as well as ban anyone who attempts to call them out on their idiocy. There are many scammers on the site, who essentially get to stay there with no repercussion due to "a compromised account". I've been on the forums for a fairly long time, as a member as well as a guest, and I can say with certainty that due to the nature of the staff and the leniency they give to members they like, Sinisterly will never be a site you can wholeheartedly trust.

***** is a really good website and is very safe. It only has porn in the NSFW section, the section has a alert saying that it is only for adults. It has a bit of cyber security and it is a great site for graphic designers and just to talk generally. Technology, designing, marketplace, it has it all!

I've been a user on the site for a while, and while im not a very prominent member, I know that this site does have a bit of a hacking vibe to it, but there's more to that. Also, the staff is trustworthy, and if you use common sense you will be fine.

In my year tenure at the site, its had its share of hiccups and innapropriate users, but said users and kssues are dealt with in a timely and decisive manner by the webmaster. Site encourages the sharing of technical knowledge and empowers new users, greeting them warmly and with open arms.

Places such as 4chan have been spammed in order to advertise the site. Why? Because it has been successful in attracting new members. However, a lot of money is actually spent on adverts. It is also run with strict rules and nudity is clearly marked with NSFW. It is a general discussion and technology forum. The "illegal activities" are those of some members, not from the website itself. You will not get a virus unless you choose to download things from people you don't even know. The site does not distribute malware or download unwanted programs. The admin are very reliable and there is a great community there. I've made some great friends. Some of the above reviews were written with little or no knowledge of the forum.

Awesomeness. The review of this SLon WOT is completely misleading. Sinisterly is a General Discussion and Technology forum.

This forum called SL is completely safe, the discussion is mostly about ponies and rainbow farting cats. How does that seem threatening to anyone, I don't understand.

Just go and register to the site. Sure Oni might spam his website on other sites, but I'm pretty sure he's not doing that now. He actually pays for advertising on other sites (ex. 4chan). The site has an amazing community that makes me want to come back everyday. It's worth all the time I've been on. So don't be a bitch and cry about a site you know nothing about.

This website results to spammy tactics in an attempt to gain new members for their forum. The sole purpose of this website is for discussions on malicious tools used to compromise computers. There has been a lot of discussion other places regarding this forum infecting their own members with viruses, etc. This forum also states in their registration terms that they will remove all adult content, but they fail to do so. There is pornographic images within this site and it's not safe for young viewers. I greatly recommend that all viewers never visit this website in regards to KEEPING YOUR COMPUTER SAFE. The intentions of these people are malicious and hostile.

This site is the reason why certain sites are hacked.

This website will spam its URL on popular forums in a pathetic attempt to get traffic. Never visit or deal with. ***** <- Proof of this.
