Listen, i'm afraid to say this but be prepared for a not so nice greeting here. This is a lockpicking hobbyist group. We pick locks for fun, and part of that is that we try not to pick locks that are in use and that people rely on. Lockpicking can damage a lock and i'd hate for pop to come home and be upset on account that he can't get into his place now.

Either way, i'm glad to see you're new here but take a look around a see that we're not here to break into places (even if they are your dad's place) Search around and see what else this place has to offer.

I remember this kid who came on here a few years ago and asked us to help him crack his dad's safe so he could get at his marijuanna. Awesome! :lol:
