First Sucessful Lockpicking Job

Postby Gundanium » 28 Apr 2006 3:47

I've been on this site few times, i've also done extensive studies before actually reaching the internet and finding this site.
I recently posted about opening a car door via picking the lock, it was cut off and deleted due to the nature of the post (car entry) which is understandable, but i've ran out of things to talk about on this site, i'm very well educated in my own sense on locks, i've helped out others before.

Anyway, I'll try not to give too much away, but give as much away as I can for not being an "Advanced Memeber" so i'll say what I can.

Recenlty I was at work packing someone out of their house, when I recieved a phone call, someone, "hey what you doing 'working' I locked my keys in my car and was refered to you"
So I said yeah after work, which he had work, so it ended up to be 8pm alaskan time.
Anyways, my main point was keep you rmind open on how to open a car, if you know how to open a car you're probably focusing on one way to open a car, there are many many *clever ways* (which I can't tell you) to open a door.
So I opened this door 15 seconds later after picking it the wrong way, and made a buck (I knew the person) after picking the lock. Anways, your abilties toward g0od are pretty well rewarding, and it was my first auto abilties experience.
Anways, my original experience was deleted, and this is waht I could conjour.

main points: keep an open mind when helping someone
NEVER lose your cool *keep your cool*
someone love me!

Do you just take someones word for it if they message you and say "Hey, tell me how to open this car door, I'm a good person!"?

I think that is the reason they make you wait here...a couple of messages just isn't enough time to get to know someone in this world of anonymity. In three months time if you're not genuine, it's gonna come out. Plus, someone that is genuine will be here frequently for 3 months, will help out as they can, and will follow the rules and wait patiently until they are allowed in to the advanced sections. Someone who has ill intent isn't likely going to want to wait.

Personally I think the wait time is a good idea and 3 months isn't really that long to have to wait. I just think it's a timeframe in which the administrators allow members to show their true colors!

an ex-convict. 'my' car...hmmm, well I wouldn't help you out, not because you are an ex-convict, but because you are an ex-convict trying to get help to learn lockpicking cars online. and secondly, if we taught you how, then you went and did it and got caught (very real possibility when 'stealing' cars) then somewhere along the lines, lockpicking101.com is going to come up, then the site will be shut down or something and then all of us are gonna have to be all paranoid at whoever knocks on our front door. then we would have to have some of our 'friends' find you at your residence (whether it be at a fixed location, or prison) and teach you another lesson about 'lockpicking' ....lol all in good humor man....mostly.


and remember we are not thieves, not theif teachers and not bad people, we just have an interest in something that is edgy and not fully understood...mainly by the government and authorities...lol. i love it here.
