Hey guys, I have been seeing a lot of posts recently that are like "yeah I always get the URL off blahblah website" and I think that this is just stupid because it leaves the door open for phishermen of all kinds.
I personally just remember 3 simple things and you should too!
1.silkroad
2.vb5
3.piz3r
seriously type it out a few times so you get in the muscle memory of it and tada! you have crushed the phishers.
Some people click the link in a vendor's signature, some people just google sillkroad URL, some people use the hidden wiki, its all about balancing the risks and benefits.
Secondly, if you are one of the smart ones who can remember vb5piz3r, how do you remember the forum URL?
dkn255hz262pmii seems a tad more difficult.
I have this saved as I usually visit it before SR and it loads faster so I would get annoyed always clicking the link from the home page of SR.
Thanks and good luck getting your post counts up :)
-
useful, thanks :)
-
I just count to 3
-
i just ask google ;-)

I have this problem, I remember the SR url fine. But can't remember the forum, so I have to log in to SR first and then click the forum link. I suggested that there should be a link to the forum on the login page of SR to make it a bit faster, but people seemed to think it was a pointless idea: http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?topic=37534.msg424292#msg424292

Like you said, silkroad vb5 piz3r is how i remember it :)
and the forums dkn255 hz 262ypmii
-
I remember it pretty similar to you.
1. silkroad
2. vb5
3. piz
4. 3r
Only took me a handful of times before I got it memorized.
-
My mnemonic is "Silk Road v[isual] b[asic] 5 [leaning tower of] piz3r"
-
I remember the url the same way as you, i just click the link at the bottom of SR so I don't have to remember 2 lol
-
Hi There,
I too have it memorized. I am but a Newbie, and even I realize the importance of anonymity. I would hope everyone who accesses SR would use the Tor browser to protect this resource. It amazes me that people would use anything else- stupid to do that! thanks for your post.
-
remember it? I don't. lol
-
WIth my brain
-
Deep down in my own memory
and in case I'm to stoned to remember in a PGP encrypted file on an encrypted external USB
now I just have to remember where I put that damn USB xD
-
i used to get it off the wiki page but now they took it down
i now save the link in bookmarks but occasionally i need a new tor update so that would be gone after i do.
now i have it saved on my dashboard on a note (since i have a mac)
-
even if i live to be 200 years old (which i won't from all the drugs i do) i won't ever forget the SR URL

8) lol.. i wish i could say the same...
-
And the .onion is a given
-
i wrote it in big black letters on my desk. my mum thinks i like onions
-
yepfdp
-
Favorites.
-
so why exactly do u need to remember the link?
-
silkroad is one of the easiest adresses from hiden websites.
-
I actually wrote a bunch of .onion links on the back of a bunch of Magic the Gathering cards with black sharpie and keep them in a deck box labled "LULZ"
I know , I'm a nerd but when you have brain damage , you do what you can.
-
bookmark
-
i keep it stashed in an old klonopin bottle on a ratty napkin that says vb5piz3r, but that's just in case my memory shits the bed again (from all the benzos), I actually have the son of a bitch lodged deep in my memory now. i break it down like this... sr, vb5, piz3r. simple enough no matter how gowed i get.
-
Password protected document in a hidden archive on a jump drive like the rest of my passwords, logins, etc.
-
There's a wikipedia page all about Silk Road, and it also has the URL on the page. I get it off there, then bookmark it in my tor browser. Pretty simples.
-
it`s easy
bookmark it
CTRL+D
-
Just memorized it, don't use tor for anything else.
-
wrote it down in a couple places and bookmarked it in my tor browser
-
silkroadvb5piz3r.onion
silkroad vb 5 piz 3r .onion
silkroad vb 5 pizzas 3 romas and an onion
-
i just ask my mom
-
why not bookmark?
-
Memorizing it is best, but I suppose you could encrypt a text file with a bunch of useful links / info that you don't want to forget.
-
I had it tattoed on my Butt!!
Kinda sucked when ythey changed it!!!
-
It's so damn hot... milk was a bad choice
-
Memorized it. Not too complicated by .onion standards.
I do not want this site bookmarked. And there's a link to the forums at the bottom of every SR page, so I don't have to memorize that one.
-
Im looking at dailyanarchist.com
Theres a thread with the link!
If dailyanarchist is down, there are probably more threads like this to find in google!
I do the exact same thing lol!
-
bookmark u n00b, next quiz
-
I write it down on my hand.
-
Typically, bookmarking it or writing the url down is bad because there is then proof of a link between you and SR.
-
+1 to tattooing
-
I constantly stumble across it and remember to buy stuff incase I never find it again.
-
wish they'd generate a new one tbh
-
Why would they generate a new one?
-
Visual Basic 5 pizzas 3 returned
-
What's this 5 pizzas returned business mean? I looked it up but no luck.
-
Just bookmark it in your TorBrowser.
Then don't forget to back-up your bookmarks before upgrading your Tor Browser Bundle. If you don't, you'll lose them.
-
lol google because it will help;-)
-
Copy+Paste
-
Bookmark. Seriously, its not illegal to visit the site, and if they find Tor on your computer they'll know what your doing...
-
Can't even remember my own mobile phone number, not even going to try to memorize these urls :P Bookmarks for the win!
-
I remember reddit.com/r/silkroad. links in the side section.
-
I dont remember it. lol

Tor Browser is REQUIRED to access Silk Road.
-
I do not, I use "favourite"
-
guys there is a thing called bookmark.
-
I bookmarked it. :)
-
Seems that bookmarking could be bad form in case the worst happened
-
thats how i remember it too
-
Silk Road VeeBeeFive peezer.
(peezer is my favourite bit).
-
don't bookmark it jeez...
I have a mnemonic:
silkroad, vibes (vb5), pisser (piz3r)
of course if you type it in several times a day you'll memorize it pretty fast
