Blocking someone from a hacking game because they tried to hack it is basically admitting defeat.
If a real world pentester tries to hack something out of scope, they also get banned. From society. To a prison cell.
Nah, hackthebox and many other red team simulation type sites have strict rules of engagement. You're there to solve a puzzle as defined by hackthebox, not get around the puzzle by hacking hackthebox.
Oh no, just like if you were actually hired to do a red team simulation for a business! They would have strict rules of engagement and certain systems would potentially be defined as off-limits.
How terrible of Hackthebox to *checks notes... promote industry standard Red Team practices.
It's called hackthebox not hackoutofthebox
Is this like getting banned from an escape room because you brought (and used) a live grenade to solve the puzzle
(I think they have a strict no-grenades-from-home policy, usually)
Getting caught means the hacker won? Are you a r?
"Because" is spelled wrong.
but “bacause” is spelled correctly
The ultimate bacon reason
At first I thought this was a legit ban but it actually looks more like an error message similar to 404 lol
So trying to hack hackthebox is not permitted? Confusion is the name of the game
hackthebox is essentially a puzzle solving platform where the puzzles are designed to teach you hacking. You're not supposed to hack the platform.

I hope it leads you on a bit before this reveal.
That's the honeypot
