Drugslist: An official statement

Hi All:

We wanted to give you an update on Drugslist and what our team has been doing and working on.

As some of you know, we had an issue with a few bugs (which were immediately corrected and didn't lead to major problems on the site itself). We have since taken important steps to ensure the future of DrugsList. To start, we decided to collaborate with /u/The_Avid (one of the people involved involved in the discovery of the bugs)- he has been reviewing and auditing our code to make sure that our users continue to remain safe on our site. Within the next 5 days we will have all new updates in place and new security features added (based on his work and suggestions). He will be putting his "security" seal of approval on the site as soon as everything is complete.

We have learned valuable lessons from this "episode" and will not make the same mistake(s) again. Again, we apologize, on behalf of the team, for the way the problems were managed and our horrible communication- especially here in the Reddit community. Our team has put a lot of time and effort in creating Drugslist (from zero/a blank slate) and it is a project that all we have all considered as our "baby".

As part of our "makeover", we are happy to announce that we will be having a new account managing our Reddit PR and customer relations. Future communication will be done by /u/PRDrugslist (in the main subreddit). We will still be managing the forums on DL and our our subreddit, so please feel free to continue to contact us in either of those two places if you wish to speak to us directly. We felt that this would be the most efficient way to make sure that all questions are answered quickly, and in the right way.

As a reminder to everyone, we offer auto withdrawals for vendors, 1% referral commissions, multi-sig "lite" and a fully featured API multi-sig, integrated email and forums, as well as an excellent customer support.

We have high hopes that the community will see our strong will and desire to manage Drugslist in the best way possible and to make it one of the best and biggest DarkNetMarkets with a high standard of security and safety.

A big thank you to our vendors and buyers who have supported us and stood by us. We look forward to publishing the results of our code audit and having /u/The_Avid sign off on the security of our site. He will continue working with us after the audit to make sure that our site remain as secure as possible.

Thank you all for your time and attention. We hope to see you all on Drugslist. In an effort to become the best and most trusted site, we are implementing improvements everyday, getting more vendors and buyers, and hope people that haven't tried our site will give it/us a chance.

Thanks again, DL.

It is encouraging that you are attempting to repair the damage that was done as far as security/credibility. Thank you for the update.

Hate to say it DL, you picked a number and then stepped out of line, now you're in the back of the line. Why not just rebrand your site, redesign it, call it something else, pretend to be someone else and try again.

I believe that hiring Avid and Avid AGREEING to pen test for them says a lot for mending bridges both in public and behind the scenes. Obviously one of the admins has been removed from posting on Reddit, and has been replaced by someone with a cooler head. I appreciate my fellow vendor DC stepping up to say something positive, and I wish I had sooner. Peace and Love.

Your site was so insecure I bet all sorts of gov agencys already have rootkits on your servers it doesn't matter you fixed them holes they were there and will have blown any future security wide open, See DPR for proof you have to do it right from the start any slip up early on will lead to your downfall whenever they want to take you out.
