Hi ramsey,

As you are new to this, I'm sure you don't realize just how large a question you have asked. There are many varied opinions on what is good/bad, or otherwise. The important thing is that these opinions have all been given in previous post.

The truth is your question is a common one, one that many people here have seen time and time again. I would urge you to start in the FAQ section of this site and read every announcement and every sticky. Then, if you haven't already, read the MIT Guide to lockpicking.

Also, learn to use the search feature of this website, as it will likely provide you with an answer even faster, and save others from rehashing this same information over and over again.

I hope you enjoy the site,

Happy picking!

well in actual fact, most people wont reherse the same info time and time again, they will just flame the hell outa anyone who asks, im even kinda surprized db here didnt flame you for not searching.

just a little warning. but yeah, do read te faq's

I don't flame.

I always figure that the n00b is allowed one n00b post and one polite corrections. After that, I leave it to all of you to throw the fire.

and the rest of us do throw the fire, and in some cases (one recantly) 2 pages of fire

by **digital_blue** » 16 Feb 2005 3:07

Yeah, I've been following that one too. I know sometimes fire is the only way, I'm just not the one to throw it.

thats good to hear that where not all evil (not that any of us are... but you get my point)

Why the floosey don't we keep on topic...

we are not hear to talk about flaming (but i am)

you may spam in general chatter or have convo's like this on msn, but this is a forum..we do not want it full of SPAM.

Keep on topic (coming from me it is kinda funny)

i failed to assert my sarcastic self too much in that post, but as you may be able to tell it was pure sarcasm.

hate to say it (wait... no I dont) you did fail, well and truly fail.

and just to stay on topic for our dear friend skold here, try the "how stuff works" site, the lockpicking part obviously, it help me alot.
