I noticed a few anons looking for the IRC lately. I'm not running one any longer, but a few anons started a new one here: pentestrvzliacvo.onion/6667

I made this thread because I've seen that there's been some activity looking for the IRC, these threads, and myself. I'll be honest, I'm just too busy to do many of these threads or keep up the old server.

I'll stop by when I can, and I hope the archives provide enough incentive for you all to make it. I'll be here for a few hours tonight taking Qs like we used to do.
