From Fravia's own private "cracking posters" collection "I'll be with you boys!" (1941) The +HCU PAPERS (1998) |
Our own "papers" Well, dear fellow crackers, Fravias and protectors (and readers), I'm sure you'll enjoy the 1998 'shift': no more 'blind' cracking around. We need good and powerful doucuments not only to reverse the hell out of it... but to understand what we are doing as well! In fact: what is the purpose of our work? Why do we crack? Did you ever stop and asked yourself such questions? I believe that we crack in order to spread KNOWLEDGE!... I believe that we crack in order to SURVIVE (in a society where all what you should know is NOT teached and all what you do not need to know is hammered inside your brain :-) I believe that we tackle difficoult tasks and that we reverse code (and other things as well :-), in order to TEACH! Show me other sites on the web, apart from crackers' and (to a certain extent) hackers' sites, that give you knowledge like this for FREE, without asking anything more than your (free) contribution... LEARN ALL WHAT YOU CAN and give us in return THAT WHAT YOU CAN... a very simple "magic" recipe for development... on this web of ours. Indeed I believe that we want people to develop, to gain power and knowledge to build on our shoulders for free... the more, the better So we'll NEVER just spread around some ready-made cracks (why should we?), on the contrary: we will less and less publish 'cracks' and more and more concentrate on HOW TO DO things... therefore a "HCU papers" section will be very important for REAL crackers and Fravias, and wont help leechers and lusers... that's nice! In fact, let's utter it: we DO NOT LIKE leechers and lusers... and we (firmly) believe that only people that DO contribute have a right to learn and grow and develop... that's why we will ALWAYS be able to develop ourselves... :-) |
