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.
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.

That’s not very “Kobayashi Maru” of them.
I mean that just means you didn’t hack them well enough.
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?
