It's founder was a Totse member you know.
Here is the story if you're interested.
A brief history of Evilzone
Evilzone: A place of lulz, a place of trolls. It had everything, snitches, bitches, and nigger hitches. This story will be my account of Evilzone up until the present day. The dates and events may not be 100% accurate but I intend to retell this epic story like no other can… Just because, some things shouldn't be forgotten.
Totse Era: ? - 2006
By tracing our old founder's alias' [redacted] we come across a slew of activity which occurred around 2006. What was gone and thought forgotten is forgotten no longer, and hence we have a rare window into the mind that founded Evilzone. This tale begins at Totse . . .
Totse
If you don't know about Totse then I probably hate you, nevertheless I do feel a certain urgency to fill you in . . . Ah yes, Totse! Such great memories indeed; Totse was a wonderful community and all those who were a part of it can tell you it was something special. The Temple of The Screaming electron, as it was called, was a place of openness, revolution, and free speech. Notable boards included Better Living Through Chemistry (drugs), Bad Ideas (fraud), and for some of us Hacking & Security – which is where I first met our founder, who I will now dub “N.”
Totse was the first thing that would come up when you searched for “bomb making” in Google, and they were damn proud of it too. It was a community of outcasts and as a community they weren't very welcoming to new comers. Anyone who asked stupid questions was socially castrated, idiots and noobs weren't tolerated… Totse, in many respects, was a place just for the elite. It wasn't the kind of place open to helping people learn… like Evilzone was.
Totse operated from 1989 to 2009. It's closing was a great loss to the Internet; It's community and culture annihilated with the fragmentation of it's then legendary website. Many would later mourn the loss of such a great website, and shun the idiotic disorganization of it's closing, including yours truly… and though I resented such events, I never thought I would be a part of similar occurrences with the staff of Evilzone, years later… A fact I'm both sad and embarrassed to announce.
. . . and some things that should not have been forgotten were lost. History became legend. Legend became myth. And Totse passed out of all knowledge . . .
A look at N
2006 and Totse was still going strong. I decide to trace a then young N to gain some insight into his thought process and how Evilzone came to be founded. Here is what I found out.
. . .
For N's young age [redacted] he was a remarkably intelligent and curious person. We often forget that English wasn't his mother tongue… He seems to have picked up English, possibly just by talking to other hackers on the net. In addition to English, he spoke two other languages fluently and knew the basics of two more, including Greek.
His access to information was quite extraordinary. He knew all the best places to pick up things for free and enjoyed listening to lectures on a wide variety of subjects ranging from hacking to philosophy. It was his deep and genuine love of learning and curiosity that saw him become the hacker he is today. His ability to teach himself was one of his greatest strengths, something most hackers have in common.
The problem with the kids today is they don't undertake or understand autodidacticism. They've grown up in a society where what little they know is pre-chewed and tasteless ;) N was a stark contrast to the norm; Completely independent and capable of schooling himself in the esoteric art of the electron. N even chose his religion at a young age – when most kids are just going along with what their family believes – N was an Atheist, even in a society and culture where he was bullied for being so.
It's interesting to see the posts here about September 11, 2006. He was discussing whether or not 9/11 was an inside job. This was almost directly after it happened, there wasn't any band wagon yet, and the kid was still in school… yet he was already questioning, already thinking, at such a young age. While most Americans were busy taking George Bush' cock up their ass, N was attacking it with a sword. That kind of inquisitiveness and wit pervades his thinking. It is not surprising to find the boy interested in conspiracy theories and alternative views. Not in a crazy way, either – Something hard to find in that kind of scene.
Amongst this old data I find references to N being considerably older than he would otherwise have us believe. I consider this data and discard it; N was arrested not long ago, his official age was reported as 18, all other data supports my conclusions. Hence it was a lie, possibly so he could enter communities requiring him to be 18 years or older. He would do so many more times.
Of course, this wouldn't be the first time N would do something dishonest or immoral, for he was a notorious scammer . . .
N would hack websites and ask the owner to pay for the backups. Then he would place deface pages on them, advertising his hacking services (for a cost, of course.) From there, I can only assume people contacted him, and he would then trick them into installing a remote access tool. This allowed him to harvest credit card numbers which could be used for online purchases; He was certainly crafty.
This was the darker side of N, he loved scamming and fraud and worshiped the famous con artists. He lists here as his favorite movie “The Italian Job.” Not surprising, really.
N's small success at fraud was his doorway to the larger world of finance, both legitimate and illegitimate. N has been said by many to be “a financial genius” and in 2006 this is where it all began; He was heavily interested in finance. Some may even say obsessed. The web is testament to that, and it's littered with N's early attempts to make money.
I speculate that the only reason N started Evilzone was for the money. There is evidence suggesting he planned to make money from it via advertising but that never went anywhere because no advertising networks would have accepted a hacking website. That is also the reason why Evilzone doesn't have ads on it now.
Hacker's Heaven
Hacker's Heaven was the precursor to the Evilzone we all know and love today. It had a mono-chrome green look and feel with flaming text and a dizzying array of trojans, worms, viruses, root-kits, and tutorials to choose from. The closest analogy I have to Hacker's Heaven is the Vxchaos File Server… those who have seen this server will know what I mean.
Hacker's Heaven wasn't very popular and there isn't much to say about it. I don't know when exactly it was started, and all evidence of it's existence has been mostly erased from the web.
Evilzone.net Era: 2006 – 11 April 2007
Enter Evilzone.net; Evilzone.net was the start of a series of chain reactions that year which would later place Evilzone amongst some of the top hacking websites of the day. Our main characters here include Evil.!0 and N. Evil.!0 was N's vague friend and he was also the original owner of Evilzone.net. N convinced Evil.!0 to use Evilzone.net for a hacking forum, and so begun the legacy.
I first heard about Evilzone.net myself from a post on Totse. Something about that post intrigued me, so I decided to check out the forum and registered. At once, I was amazed by what was there. A whole board was dedicated exclusively to so called “freebies.” Freebies included anything and everything N felt like giving away and often this was r00t access to web servers. This place was wonderful, I thought, and so I gained access to my first “shell” there. These shells were impressive because you could literally do anything you could imagine to the web server. You could upload an email bomber, a proxy, create a DoS script, back door the website for accounts, host a botnet, anything you imagined, and N had hacked hundreds of websites and given away the shells all for free.
That was my first impression of Evilzone and it marked the start of the most epic marketing campaign for a website I think I've ever encountered…
Most people neglect to tell the story of how Evilzone became popular but to miss that is to do the story a great injustice, so I'd like to retell it: N had been hacking website after website, many of them high traffic, and posting backlinks to Evilzone. He was seeding promotional torrents, creating YouTube videos, spamming forums, chat rooms, email accounts… spreading worms… press releases… and the members were all doing the same. In short, it was the most aggressive marketing campaign I've ever seen, and it worked alarmingly well. By the end of 2007, Evilzone.net had more than 100,000 posts with hundreds of new members joining everyday.
Evilzone in those days was more black hat than anything you can possibly imagine. The members talked about credit card numbers so much that the term had to be shortened to “CCs” for convenience. Carding and fraud were a part of the culture, and so the freebies board found itself swimming with CCs. Every hacker was thrilled to be a part of Evilzone, the only “hacking” website where any hacking actually took place. Indeed, it was this blatant disregard for all laws that made Evilzone so great in the first place. You truly felt like literally nothing was off-limits – that's not to say you still wouldn't get banned for posting CP though.
Those were the glory days of Evilzone where it was still in the Goldilocks zone of not being so large as to gather the FBI's attention, yet not being so small that there was never anything going on. It was perfect, but perfect never lasts.
For one reason or another, N began to fight with Evil.!0, and they became enemies. The drama that marked this period was a wave file N released allegedly of Evil.!0 saying “Hello, my name is Evil.!0 and niggers fuck my ass and I am gay.” This was mass sent to every user on the forum (which was a considerable number of people at the time.)
… Which was the catalyst for the first great coup d'état in Evilzone history (though certainly not the last ;) ) – The hijacking of .Net to .Org.
The great coup: 11 April 2007 – 2008
One of the most turbulent eras in Evilzone history was the move to hijack Evilzone.net's user-base to Evilzone.org. N had initiated this coup over frustrations he held regarding Evilzone's management. I believe it might have been something like losing the main database due to unreliable hosting which set him off.
N's plan was essentially to lure all the old members to the new website with shiny new toys. The server was to be faster, with more bandwidth. There would be a dedicated torrent tracker, radio station, IRC server, and more. As any user will know, it is not the forum but the community which counts, and N was arguably the most important part of that community… With N now gone, I went after him like most people. Not because I was a sheep but because he was my friend. I didn't much like Evil.!0 anyway. He was never really a part of Evilzone, and didn't post much (if at all.)
I remember distinctly that Evilzone.net wasn't doing too well at this point. Possibly we had been DDoSed and encountered extended downtime. I recall it was kind of dead in the end. We were spamming Evilzone.net to bring new members to the website but there was nobody left to hear it…
Evilzone.org had to start from scratch, as far as marketing was concerned, and this time N was more aggressive and determined than ever. N, having already demonstrated his genius for marketing, enlisted his members to advertise on money, graffiti on walls, and tag websites in the name of Evilzone. Eventually, Evilzone.org ranked at the top of Progenics – a self-styled top 100 for hacking websites and a key target for recruitment.
N had achieved his goal, but N was the kind of guy who held grudges and he obsessively pursued anyone who had fucked with him over these past long years. The first he got even with was Evil.!0. He managed to turn the whole community against him. Evil.!0's reign was now over, and nobody was ever going back to Evilzone.net now, or Evil.!0, in fact… they couldn't, it was impossible – N had DDoSed Evilzone.net. The last of their users were therefore forced to give up, and reluctantly flocked to the new website.
Thus the coup had been successful, but it's backlash would be felt for years to come. You see, the takeover had angered many individuals. In the hacker world, this is extremely bad. Even in war you have the concept of mutually assured destruction or MAD but the two Evilzone's knew of no such concept. They were quite content to destroy themselves and anyone who was unfortunate enough to be caught in the cross-fire, and I believe one such member was H)(40R (that spells “haxor”, sir! (I couldn't read it then, lol).)
H)(40R was one of the stars of Evilzone. He was VIP, he posted useful content, seemed to know his shit, and was willing to help people. I liked the guy, and we were friends… I don't know what the fuck happened but H)(40r ended up snitching on Evilzone to the FBI. His email account had been hacked by N which uncovered irrefutable correspondence between him and the Feds. Understandably, this enraged N, and a fire burned inside of him.
He enlisted my support, and together we fucked H)(40R in novel ways. I believe we got his Internet account shutdown, and his house was raided. I don't recall, but one thing was sure: H)(40R, like Evil.!0, was now universally hated by Evilzone and was not coming back now, even if he wanted to. He later DDoSed Evilzone….
At this point, I'd like to apologize for a lack of citations, dates, and what not. Over time, much of the data has been destroyed in the conflict and all that remains are sketchy memories but I think if we collaborate, we can construct a more concrete history.
Following this point, another notable event occurred: The raiding of fellow member Xeross. Xeross was another star member of Evilzone and was also VIP. His house was raided by the Swedish Police when an Evilzone user uploaded some bad data to his server. I don't have any more info than that, unfortunately.
Let us also not forget the lulzy release of the Evilzone album by Odin, AKA “Cyberneticxmasghost” (“Yes, I'm a girl Sir :3”.) In this album, Odin chronicled the snitching of H)(40R in his hit song “Snitcher.” I am guessing from the lack of other tangible evidence that this drama was all that occurred from 2007 – 2008. Thus concludes the year.
Betrayals and lulz: 2008 – 2009
The stage is now set for Evilzone.org and it's up and coming stars are:
N – Founder of Evilzone. N is skilled at hacking, marketing, fraud, and finance. Administrator of Evilzone and loved by all.
Joepie91 – One of the great coders of Evilzone. Joepie91 is a homosexual Dutch man who codes in C#. Joepie91 was then a friendly and laid back guy, with many friends, but over the years has become sharp and jaded. Was once a black hat, now is an activist for open source.
Bubzuru – One of the great coders of Evilzone and universally respected for his great software. Creator of EvilVNC, Bubzuru Binder, Bubzuru Crypt, and countless other great software. Bubzuru is a skilled hacker and codes in a slew of languages including Borland C++, and X86 ASM.
Xzid – Notable assembly expert. One of the great coders of Evilzone. Like the former two, Xzid was respected and could be classed as 1337. He was a friend of mine but left Evilzone early on to return recently.
Cyberneticxmasghost – Lulzy hacker resembling The Joker. Odin was Evilzone's resident musician and created countless new original content. He is a skilled singer, artist, and hacker. He understand the way of chaos and lulz unlike most new to the art.
Satan911 – Current administrator of Evilzone. Satan911 is a veteran black hat who had many successful and noteworthy intrusions in the early days. His cracking skills were commended and provided the majority of the database dumps in freebies.
Ande – Current administrator of Evilzone. To be honest, I don't really remember that much about ande in those days. He's perhaps most known today for his take over of Evilzone. A strange turn of events, really.
Shwack13 – The biggest script kiddie of Evilzone. Doesn't know any programming languages. He can't even code HTML.
Dark Coke – Another cracker type. Together with Satan911 they dropped more DB's then your mum sucking cocks on a busy street corner.
HoaX – Good at doxing and haxing. Evilzone VIP.
Jmscobera - The god of porn.
hacker@sr.gov.yt– Blackhat with countless intrusions and the 1337 email to prove it. This guy has been around forever.
Hanorotu – Deserves an honorable mention. Back in the day we experimented with sleep deprivation to see what would happen.
Turkish OG – Some faggot who DdoSed Evilzone.
Stathis – Former Administrator of Evilzone. Stathis was really cool and he knew a lot about security and hacking but he was more the sysadmin type.
Fox – My closet friend :3 He was then known by another name but I don't recall.
Stateofhack – Former Totse elite and member of the Totse Phoenix. Stateofhack is moderator on Zoklet.
Roenhayden – Another Totse user. I don't know what happened to him, but he knew more about hacking, security, and chemistry than anyone I've ever met.
&T – One of the administrator who came from Totse.
And anyone I just can't remember!
To be continued….
I need clarifications on the bellow events:
H)(40R – Snitches on Evilzone to the FBI.
Turkish_OG - DdoS' Evilzone
ViraL – ViraL AKA Ryan Cleary, alleged member of Lulzsec joins Evilzone through Odin.
Shwack13 - “Hacks” Evilzone, dumps the database, psychopain killer.
? - Singletrackworld fiasco.
Joepie leaves to start null nation
ViraL – DdoS us
Sirholms – Sucide hoax
Ande
A look at Evilzone today
It's hard to believe it's only been 6 years since this all started. Since then, a lot has changed. The website has undergone revision after revision, changes in staff, membership, and constant conflict to reach the point it's at now. We see Satan911, and Ande, along with Kulverstukas have stuck with Evilzone and are the current administrators.
I haven't really been following much but . . . I see originally, Ande pushed to try transition Evilzone from it's dark days into a legitimate security community. All of us thought originally, that this was the best move. It was reasoned that for Evilzone to continue to exist it needed to change from it's old ways into a more whitehat community. Not realizing, of course, that for this to occur also implied the necessary destruction of Evilzone which is the reason why so few members remain.
I have witnessed Ande's remarkably stupid decisions and indecisiveness in running this place. I am basing this on the following events:
Close forum.
Open blog
Decide forum was actually good
Reopen forum
No that actually sucked, close forum again, IRC is 1337
Decide to open forum again
No, open new hacking community, Evilzone sucks
Close it, it actually sucked
Herp fucking derp, I wish I was joking
If I didn't know any better, I'd say Ande was trying to kill Evilzone on purpose, I suggest he may be suffering from a stroke here. But I guess, that's just the way it is. As retarded as it is, it's human nature for us to think that we're competent when we're not. It's obvious Evilzone had no choice but to die when the wrong leader took control.
It is my opinion that Ande lacks the necessary skill and drive to run Evilzone. True, I may never have liked Ande much. In fact, I don't think a person with such poor English skills is fit to run an English website by definition, but that doesn't bias me from stating facts. The fact of the matter is, N was one of few people capable of keeping the website prosperous, even in such turmoil. Ande on the other hand, lacks the necessary skills. This is evident by the website's current decline.
I wonder if he has even tried to promote the website once since he took over? This isn't field of dreams, people aren't going to come just because it's here, and I certainly don't think they will stay with Ande as the Administrator (lol, no offense, free speech man.)
… and so, that brings us back to present day Evilzone, where I have no choice but to watch the website I once loved die… all because of petty pride and incompetence. You can ban me if you like, the truth is, you know I'm right and Ande should be embarrassed at the state of things. I know I would be.
Thanks for reading.
And that's the end of that.

Honestly I thought Evilzone folded around 2012 or something.
Having said that very sad, etc.
