The c0ke Callout: Leaked Exposé on tux and fkn0wned's Founding Drama

A simple 'where do I download CS:S' thread turns into a leaked exposé on fkn0wned's own founder

This long-running thread started as a routine request/share thread for a non-Steam version of Counter-Strike: Source, with members trading quick thanks and one-liners as pages rolled by. By page 8 it derails hard when banned user |-noodle-| reposts a lengthy callout post, originally written by former fkn0wned head admin 'c0ke,' accusing site owner 'tux' of years of unpaid promises, skimmed VIP money, fake contests, and betrayal of the admins who helped build the site. The post airs a lot of internal site drama — money disputes, a database backup used as leverage, and fallout among former staff — giving a rare inside look at how the forum's leadership actually operated behind the scenes.

A lot of people have been asking me why I was banned at fkn0wned. I have probably all given them slightly different reasons so I have decided to write up my account of what happened— c0ke (quoted by |-noodle-|)

He knew that if he kicked me from fkn0wned that I could easily make it die so he kept me on.— c0ke (quoted by |-noodle-|)

i found this at MPCforums thought it might make for interesting reading for some of the members here. what do you think of this Tux?— |-noodle-|

Fkn0wned Hack Policy (Founding Manifesto, 2006)

The site's official 'we owe you nothing' manifesto — posted by the policy author himself back in July 2006.

A pinned policy post laying out Fkn0wned's ground rules as a Counter-Strike hacking/cheat community: don't come here to flame hacking since that's the whole point of the site, staff try to keep the VAC2 detected/undetected cheat database accurate but make no guarantees, the site is run by volunteer gamers rather than professionals, and Fkn0wned takes no responsibility for any VAC bans users incur. It closes with the site's trademark cocky sign-off about getting 'Fkn0wned' in-game. This is a foundational, tone-setting document for the whole forum rather than a discussion thread.

This is a hacking site , why would you be here if youre against that sort of thing?— Wishbone

You didnt just get owned. You got Fkn0wned!— Wishbone

Well done n00b, Ill sell you a Steam account for $20. Pm, lol.— Wishbone

Guide for New Hackers (the classic noob-onboarding sticky)

The sticky every fresh CS:S cheater got pointed to — steps, an FAQ, and a skins tutorial all rolled into one

A member named alex_nj_reyes posted a beginner's walkthrough for setting up cheats in Counter-Strike: Source, covering folder organization, loading hacks, and vague warnings about VAC detection, and it got stickied in the CS:S General section. Longtime staffer/regular Malware followed up with an extensive FAQ clarifying forum rules and answering common technical questions, plus a separate tutorial on installing custom skins and ragdolls. The thread ran for over a year (2006–2008), collecting a long tail of low-effort 'thanks'/'lol' replies from a parade of one-off accounts, which was pretty typical for a reference sticky like this on a cheat-scene board.

USE THIS GUIDE WISELY AND AS A REFERENCE ONLY— alex_nj_reyes

Steam is getting more smarter and they will scan your folder for hacks.— alex_nj_reyes

Valve & VAC2 Overview

The old 'so you got VAC banned' explainer thread — straight from the horse's mouth, Fkn0wned-style.

A pinned-style overview thread from Fkn0wned's Counter-Strike: Source section breaking down how VAC2 detection worked and what the site's hack-status labels (VAC2 Proof, VAC2 Detected, VAC2 Unknown) meant for users browsing their cheat database. It also covers the reality of getting permanently banned, the futility of appealing to Valve, and workarounds like unsecured/LAN servers. Posted by co-manager 'Shifty', it reads as a mix of community PSA and cheat-database user guide, capturing the site's role as a hub for the mid-2000s CS:S cheating scene.

Valve have 0 tollerence for hacking and will not take sympathy votes so dont waste your time emailing or posting on their forums.— Shifty

Word of advice, if you cant live without hacking then I advise you to use texture hacks— Shifty

Very Strange — The 'Why Hasn't He Been Banned Yet' Thread

A guy hijacks his friend's Steam account to get him VAC banned out of spite — then complains when the ban doesn't come fast enough.

A user named Fringo admits to hacking a friend's Steam account after a real-life falling out, running a cheat on it for a couple days, then handing it back — hoping it would get banned. When the ban didn't materialize after a week, he asked the forum what was wrong. Regulars chime in with ban-wave timelines (anywhere from two weeks to a couple months) and debate whether the specific cheat version was even VAC-detected, with one member noting it 'has been detected for ages.' It's a small, almost comically petty slice of the era's cheat-scene culture — casual account tampering treated as a mundane troubleshooting question.

I hacked my friends steam account ( Because we he pissed me off in real life ) and I wanted to get his account banned..— Fringo

Holzed 1.2FIX has been detected FOR AGES.— bobbafett07

yeah my last account that got banned, took 2 and a half months, and thats pretty fucking funny that your getting his account banned, lmao— Legit_Hacks

Tired of Admins Messing With You?

A 2007 CS:S survival guide for players who'd had enough of trolling server admins renaming them, killing them, and hijacking their binds.

A one-post user named reghar kicks off a guide teaching CS:S players how to lock down their config.cfg file so server admins can't rename them, rebind their keys, force fake chat messages, or otherwise mess with their game via server-side plugins. The thread got steady long-tail traffic for months, with dozens of members (mostly Noobs) chiming in with quick thanks, a few asking whether it could block kicks/mutes (answer: no), and one poster noting a later Steam update neutered a lot of the tricks. It's a classic low-drama, high-utility 'tutorial thread' that just kept getting bumped with gratitude replies for almost a year.

Admins that do this are not 'hackers' they are simply using server side plugins which most servers have.— reghar

Great thread, very useful to know when your raging a server.— Malware

Just like to point out that most of this isn't useful anymore, since a recent Steam update that seriously limited Client Execution commands.— Timeleft

How to Choose and Set Aimbots

A 4-page aimbot tutorial thread that slowly mutated into a wall of 'unhide plz' spam

Started by Teamkillexpert in late September 2007, this thread pitched itself as a guide for CS:S players who couldn't land shots even with ESP/wallhacks, promising tips on running an aimbot subtly enough to avoid getting called out in-game. By early 2008 the original content had been buried under repeated 'unhide' requests from members trying to reveal hidden/spoilered content, with a few users even calling out the spam outright. It's a classic snapshot of forum culture where a how-to thread becomes more notable for its comment section than its actual content.

some people(like me) may find it hard to aim even with ESP and all kinds of wallhack stuffs, the solution? use an aimbot!— Teamkillexpert

Spamming unhide is not going to help at all.— oledude

unhide is what get this forum's post count up— Hazz

The 31-Page Knife Glitch Megathread

31 pages of "unhide" spam over a Counter-Strike: Source knife glitch nobody could stop asking about

This was the tail end of a sprawling, 31-page thread in the Counter-Strike: Source general board dedicated to a knife glitch trick. By the time this page rolls around the actual info is long buried, and the thread has devolved into a wall of low-effort 'unhide'/'okk'/'lol' replies from mostly low-post-count members trying to unlock the hidden content. Even a veteran with 2,614 posts (LoRd Ragealot) shows up to mock the absurdity of an entire 31-page thread over what he calls a useless glitch, capturing the self-aware, slightly embarrassed nostalgia-bait energy of old cheat forums.

lol I can't belive that here are 31 pages spammed for nothing! KNIFE GLITCH IS JUST USELESS, GET IT LOL!— mgyot

Got owned by a kid.— ofactor1

Ok, I'll watch it. Unhide.— FlowMaroc

The "TS Hacking" TeamSpeak Tool That Was Actually a Trojan

User posts a shady 'TeamSpeak hack,' gets called out, then gets absolutely fkn0wned by a virus scan report.

A low-post-count member named Holy posted a supposed 'TeamSpeak hack' tool in November 2007, which was quickly met with skepticism from the CS:S General crowd. Debate broke out over whether the file was legitimate or a virus, with Holy defending it and dismissing antivirus flags as false positives. Uploader-ranked member pyeman ended the argument by posting a multi-engine virus scan showing the file as a confirmed trojan/dropper, prompting another member to declare he'd 'won the thread' and Holy had 'just got Fkn0wned.'

Please ban, I guess its virus because those things arent possible— banak

Yea... fake trojan.. Guess what mate? You just got Fkn0wned.— Bradders

Pyeman wins thread. No seriously.— bobbafett07

How long, and have you been vacced?

A 2008 confessional thread: forum regulars casually swap VAC ban stories like war wounds

A member named qu1n123 opened a casual poll-style thread asking fellow forum users whether they'd been VAC banned, whether they kept hacking on new accounts afterward, and how often Steam's ban status updated. Several regulars replied with short, matter-of-fact accounts of their own ban history, ranging from never being caught to multiple bans and account cycling. The tone was breezy and unbothered, treating VAC bans as an unremarkable rite of passage rather than a big deal, typical of the era's public cheat-using crowd.

been vacced once when i was 11 lol using detectz0red hax XD i was a real noob back then— RecoileZ

i got vacced twice. i just kept getting new accounts— LURCH[PUNX]

Have you been vacced? Did you keep hacking afterwords on a new account?— qu1n123

Blackk Pub VIP Scam Warning

One member paid $50 for 'VIP' cheat access and got a fake popup program instead — here's the receipts.

A member named Vatican posted a public warning that the paid VIP upgrade for the 'Blackkpub' cheat program was a scam, claiming he lost $50 testing it and received only a useless VB-coded fake executable in return. A staff member (typeusernamehere) responded skeptically, quoting a hostile reply from Vatican and brushing it off with a shrug. It's a small but telling snapshot of the era's cheat-seller scam culture and the community's jaded, combative tone toward it.

THIS IS A SCAM. I sent in about 50$ just to test if it was legit. IT IS NOT.— Vatican

GO FUCK YOURSELF— Vatican

No problem, since I dont believe it— typeusernamehere

TuxifieD Plugs Source Industries VIP Hack for the Deception Network

The CEO himself drops by just to plug the VIP cheat store — subtle as a brick.

A short promotional post in the CS:S General subforum, made by site founder TuxifieD, advertising VIP access to Source Industries as an 'undetected' private CSS hack. The post doubles as a plug for supporting the wider Deception Network that Fkn0wned was part of. Light on discussion, heavy on marketing — a snapshot of how these early cheat-scene forums monetized through affiliated 'VIP' cheat sites.

sign up for VIP today!!! It supports the entire Deception Network which includes Fkn0wned— TuxifieD

Man this sucks... (VAC banned)

Newbie gets VAC2 banned trusting a 'safe' cheat, forum shrugs: 'once you're banned, that's that'

A new member, BallzDeep24, posts that he got Steam banned after using cheats advertised as 'VAC2 secured' for Counter-Strike: Source, singling out the popular 'Royal Hack' as the likely culprit. Regulars pile in with the classic mix of blame-shifting and mockery — someone plugs their own 'updated' cheat, others note Royal Hack had actually been flagged as detected for weeks or months, and one member bluntly tells him bans are permanent. It's a small, quintessential slice of the cheat-scene forum experience: a cautionary tale thread with no sympathy and a side of self-promotion.

once your banned, thats that. there is no going back. Sorry...— madcow

Royal hack has been detected for awhile.— Jawl

If thats the case then why dont you guys take the VAC2 proof sign off the hacks?!?!? Your setting us up for failure— BallzDeep24

purposly getting banned! (Dec 2007)

One member's confession: he hacked for months just to see how long it would take VAC2 to catch him — and bragged about it on MySpace.

A member calling himself |-noodle-| recounts running Holzed 1.2 on an old CS:S account for nearly three months out of boredom with the game, racking up individual bans from 25+ servers before getting caught. He then admits to hijacking a friend's account, briefly trying to 'stay clean,' and quickly relapsing into using ESP, no-recoil, and anti-aim rather than a full aimbot. The tone is boastful and self-mocking, capturing the era's casual attitude toward VAC evasion and forum cheat culture. A couple of replies question why anyone would deliberately get banned, but the thread stays short and low-drama.

so i hack....hack hack hackity hack hack hack.— |-noodle-|

SUFFER FUCKERS!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!— |-noodle-|

purposely banned? why?— ganjzilla

Black puplic 1.2 - DETECKTET

One VAC ban later, a member outs the cheat everyone was quietly running

A member named Unirosss posts a warning that using a cheat called 'Black puplic 1.2' got them VAC banned, urging others to stop downloading it. A handful of regulars chime in with reactions ranging from disbelief to resignation, a moderator promises to log it in the detection report section, and one poster mentions moving on to a program called HackVision instead. It's a small but very of-its-era 'detected' thread — the kind of public-service post that quietly rippled through the cheat scene at the time.

Yep i have just got banned for the use of Black puplic 1.2 so just a diea stop use it.. i am vac banned over all now and have to get a new acc. but what the hell.. it was fun..— Unirosss

Aweh, Fuck! I love Black 1.2— Fringo

I'll post it in the detection report section and it will be updated, thanks for alerting.— rnie

Rune Escape! - the RuneScape hack request that couldn't spell RuneScape

A noob begged for 'Rune Escape' hax in the CS:S forum, and nobody let him live it down.

A member named sniperlock901 posted in the Counter-Strike: Source General board pleading for someone to make hacks or a 'stat changer' for RuneScape, misspelling it as 'Rune Escape' throughout. A couple of regulars pointed him toward the well-known sythe.org and runescape101.com hack communities instead of offering anything themselves, and the thread wrapped up with bobbafett07 dropping in just to correct the game's actual name. A tiny, low-stakes thread, but a perfect little snapshot of off-topic game-hack begging that used to clutter CS:S sub-boards.

Can some one plz make hax for Rune Escape for me if you do make some just pm pr something it will realy help me out in this online game— sniperlock901

there are hacks and autoers for this shitty game check sythe.org— poon

And for the record, it's Runescape. Not Rune Escape.— bobbafett07

FKN Revolt recode request

Guy begs for a recoded version of a detected CS:S cheat, gets a lecture on account juggling instead

A short 2007 thread in the CS:S General forum where member jacal asks if anyone can recode the 'FKN Revolt' cheat after it got detected, calling it the best hack he'd used. DJSketch explains the original coder pulled support after a recoded version went out uncredited, then suggests jacal just play legit. Jacal casually reveals he runs four separate Steam accounts (one for hacking, one for trading, one clean, plus admin on two servers), a small but telling glimpse into the era's throwaway-account cheating culture.

meh iv got 4 accounts 1 i hack on 2 to sell or trade and 1 legit no hax or trades and admin of 2 servers so yeah im right— jacal

you should try to get good an legit, cause then you don't have to worry about gettin banned— DJSketch

Some rly rly good wallhack?

A newbie begs for a wallhack, gets pointed to the Releases forum, and the thread spirals into a non-Steam vs Steam beef

A new member (ACxDog) asks for a good wallhack and, hilariously, help actually getting it working — instantly earning a scolding from a veteran to go read the Releases section instead. A regular obligingly lists out several classic CS:S wallhack releases (8-Bit Materials, Alters, SB-X, eMWu) and one hypes the then-upcoming 'lemons wh'. The thread drifts into a side debate on ESP vs wallhacks and then gets derailed when ACxDog reveals he plays non-Steam, drawing scorn from another poster. Pure early cheat-scene forum texture: newbie energy, veteran gatekeeping, and low-stakes community bickering.

epic fail. go read the release section, the material wallhacks have installation instructions in a .txt most of the time.— -Still Life-

wtf is the point playing non-steam its really gay— jcomp6

i liked the chronic esp hack— ganjzilla

New member asks to release an ESP under the Fkn0wned name

A brand-new member wants to slap the Fkn0wned name on his homemade CS:S ESP — staff says sure, but slide into my MSN first.

A freshly-registered member, kevin21, announces he's built a simple ESP for Counter-Strike: Source and asks the community if he can release it branded as a Fkn0wned tool, teasing a Team Fortress 2 version to follow. Other members debate whether you need to be staff to use the site's name, citing a past non-staff release (Fkn0wned pub) as precedent. Co-Manager Shifty gives the green light but insists on vetting him privately over MSN first to confirm legitimacy, while other posters just cheer him on and ask for screenshots.

Of course you can bro but before you release it have a word with me on msn, I'll PM you my addy. This is just to make sure you're legit— Shifty

Saintscrumpy released Fkn0wned pub v1 , he's not staff either, it doesn't really matter who made it, as long as it is legit .— rnie

Eh dude, could you show us some screenshots of the ESP?— rnie

Amazing CSS Videos

Rnie shares his sickest bunnyhop clips — and then gets called out for accidentally posting himself dancing in a white suit

A casual video-sharing thread in the CSS General board where member rnie kicked things off with links to 'pro' CS:S trickjumping, bunnyhopping, and flashboosting videos, plus a goofy clip of himself dancing on a server that someone had recorded. The thread devolves into some bickering over whether the linked 'pro' player was actually pro, with HaSh and Legit_Hacks trading jabs, while others like G3lmis and Jack Bauer just enjoyed the clips and pointed out broken links. Classic mid-2000s forum energy: broken Google Video links, YouTube embeds, and a bit of light ribbing between regulars.

AHHAHAHHA FOUND THIS ON YOUTUBE, 1 year ago someone was playing music in a server, and I was dancing for fun, someone recorded me, seriously that dude with white suit is me hahah— rnie

Once again the "Pro" video isnt pro, its...— HaSh

i wish i could play like that and have no life law...— Jack Bauer

reinstalling CSS for new account?

Guy burns through three Steam accounts and asks if a CD key can just be recycled — the forum says no, but not before some cheeky nostalgia for the old FrE3Steam crack days.

A member named oinkypig, on his third Steam account after getting VAC/community banned, asks whether reinstalling Counter-Strike: Source with his original CD key could let him make yet another clean account. Several regulars quickly shut the idea down, explaining CD keys can't be reused and would just get banned again anyway. The thread drifts into a bit of old-timer humor referencing the long-gone 'FrE3Steam' crack scene, with one poster wistfully joking about time-traveling back to those days.

You cannot re-use a cd-key. You have to buy a new...— rnie

If you could travel back intime to use those FrE3Steam cracks and shit like that lol— thesource

If only we could— DJSketch

account plz!?!?!?

A one-post newbie begs for a free account and gets roasted into oblivion.

A brand-new member with a single post to their name showed up in the CS:S General section asking if anyone had a spare account to give away. The regulars had zero patience for it, mocking the request, trolling with a fake offer, and telling the poster to get lost, while a mod chimed in to note the post was in the wrong section and needed more forum activity anyway. It's a tiny, classic slice of forum culture: a low-effort ask met with instant collective ridicule.

does any1 have a extra account i can have??? plz........=(— fizjat

Get the fuck out my forum, Bitch.— HaSh

Don't ask for accounts. Thanks.— Shifty.

Crack a hack: InzaneHacker asks the board to crack his private CS:S cheat

A guy wants someone to crack a private CS:S cheat for him — the thread mostly laughs at him for it.

A member calling himself InzaneHacker asked the CS:S General board if anyone knew how to 'crack a hack,' eventually admitting he wanted someone to crack a specific private cheat called Royal Hack C17 for him. Other regulars poked fun, suggested he learn programming instead, and jokingly told him not to PM the guy privately so everyone could see the reply. It ends with InzaneHacker thanking people for the 'help' and saying he'll try asking a coder directly.

Nah, don't pm him, let us know too— rnie

Well, its R-o-y-a-l--H-a-c-k C17 =P— InzaneHacker

Hacking or no? - the great 2007 moral dilemma

A reformatted PC and a guilty conscience: to cheat again, or stay clean?

A member called thesource, fresh off a full computer reformat, posted an open question to the CS:S General board: having gone 'good' for a while, should he start using cheats again despite the risk of a VAC ban? The replies were unanimous and blunt, with regulars encouraging him to just go for it and not worry about bans, while another suggested using a spare Steam account as a safety net. It's a small, casual slice of the forum's everyday culture — cheating discussed openly as a lifestyle choice rather than a taboo.

i turned good but i really want to hack but just so scared of teh banstick:/— thesource

Hack. Easy as that.— qwerty54

Just hack, don't be afraid of VAC they won...— rnie

Thanks you! (the brand-new-member gratitude thread)

A French newbie's earnest 'thank you' post turns into a mini lesson on forum etiquette — and a bit of bilingual charm from a Supervisor.

A freshly registered member, paradoxxxx, posts a short, enthusiastic thank-you to the site praising the cheats and community, apologizing for his rough English. A more seasoned member points out this was his very first post and gently mocks the pointlessness of a 'thank you' thread when he hadn't even earned his stripes by unlocking hidden content yet. A Supervisor, HaSh, steps in with a friendly reply in broken French, and paradoxxxx clarifies he'd actually grabbed a cheat straight from the downloads section, no unlocking needed. It's a small, wholesome slice of early forum culture — new member energy meeting veteran ribbing meeting staff goodwill.

Thank you for this site! I like very very muchthis! Like cheats and other!— paradoxxxx

lol....it's your first post...so you din't even unhide a cheat or st else...and you already made up a ty-thread!— mirco182

Tournament.com: Anyone Got an Undetected Cheat?

A newbie asks for a free undetected hack for Tournament.com — and gets told, politely, that free was never going to cut it.

A low-post-count member opens a short thread on the CS:S General board asking about undetected cheats for the Tournament.com anti-cheat platform, hoping for a free option. Regulars chime in with warnings about a buggy, easily-detected tool that got at least one poster banned, and a running joke forms around Source Industries being the gold standard that no free alternative could match. It's a small, quintessential slice of the forum's cheat-scene culture — equal parts help request, cautionary tale, and in-jokes about the site's own paid product.

i used it and i got banned so, dont use hoh_hack.— Paws

Source Industries is the best out there, that is the best your goin to get.— DJSketch

Good luck out there, your gonna need it— bobbafett07

New Guy Wants to Upload His Own CSS Hacks — Gets the Trust-and-Verification Treatment

A brand-new member offers to update the site's 'outdated' hacks — the community's not exactly rolling out the welcome mat.

A low-post-count newcomer, hitman1531, shows up asking if he can upload his own Counter-Strike: Source hacks, claiming the site's current offerings are stale. Regulars respond with a mix of procedural advice (submit to an admin, go through a trusted crew member) and open suspicion that he might just be trying to spread viruses. The thread is a small, everyday snapshot of forum gatekeeping culture — trust had to be earned through post count and reputation before anyone let you upload files.

he'll probably upload virus' n shit— Jack Daniels

Try and get more posts and get known around the co...— DCLXVI

i do not upload virus's i'm not a noob.— hitman1531

Admin Hack

One guy just wants to know if you can hack your way into admin — cue the '99% scammer' warning

A CS:S regular named anthrax_hax asks whether any hack exists to grant server admin through Mani-Admin or similar plugins. Other members chime in with theories — old rcon exploits, a hack called 'coconut/cocc0nut', and patched exploits — while one poster recalls witnessing a griefer with mysterious admin-like powers on a server a year prior. The thread ends on a cynical, very fkn0wned note: the real way people got admin was by scamming server admins out of their passwords.

I always wondered, are there ANY hacks that can get you admin on Mani or another type of admin management system?— anthrax_hax

*All I do is scam the admins into giving me the pass >:).— -Darkness-

Almost Completed Fkn0wned Public

A member previews his in-progress CS:S public cheat, screenshots and all — de_dust2 test runs included.

User Saintscrumpy posted a set of screenshots showing off a nearly-finished public cheat for Counter-Strike: Source, asking the community for approval before releasing it. Replies were mostly quick, positive one-liners from other members hyped to try it, with one person joking that CS:S was too easy to even need a hack. A pretty typical 'look what I'm making' showcase thread from the site's cheat-development scene.

Just thought I would help out the community and show you what I have so far and let the people approve it and let me post it— Saintscrumpy

Looks gud but css to easy no need to hack on— Christobell

Recode of Heroin - Where to Find It?

One guy's quest to track down a legendary CS:S cheat nobody could find anymore

A low-post-count member named 'god of war' posted a single request in the Counter-Strike: Source General board, asking where he could still find the old 'Recode of Heroin' cheat (also referenced under names like 'Cocain' or 'Spartan'). It's a short, quiet thread with no replies captured — just a nostalgic ask for a hack that had apparently already become hard to find even back then. A tiny time capsule of the CS:S cheating scene chasing its own faded legends.

I'm looking foralong time for the old Recode of Heroin Hack, but until know I havnt foundthis hack.— god of war

Material Wallhack request thread

A noob wants x-ray vision on players without the FPS hit — the regulars weigh in on which hack actually does that.

A newly registered member (ChickenJoe) asks for help finding a 'material wallhack' for Counter-Strike: Source that colors players through walls without making walls fully invisible, complaining that an existing hack from 'Holzed' tanks his framerate and gets flagged by server texture enforcement. A few regulars (S1acker, rnie, DCLXVI) chime in with pointers, and ChickenJoe eventually reports success using something called 'Freakvision'. It's a short, low-drama technical support thread typical of the CS:S General subforum — quick Q&A, some quoting back and forth, no real controversy.

This Wallhack can see other Players (Colored) through the walls, but the walls arent invisble.— ChickenJoe

What your looking for my friend is "XQZ Wall...— S1acker

Yea nice thx... I use the Freakvision not the Alte...— ChickenJoe

Anti-Flashes and Spectators

A noob asks if anti-flash tricks can spare spectators too — the answer settles into old-guard 'nothing's impossible... except this' banter.

A CS:S general-discussion thread from October 2007 where a low-post member wonders whether an anti-flash hack could also spare someone spectating the hacker. The regulars quickly shoot the idea down as impossible, one member shares an odd flashbang glitch he noticed while spectating, and a mini side-debate breaks out over whether anything is truly 'impossible' in game hacking. It drifts into a newer member asking for help after breaking his flashbang materials trying to get anti-flash working, which the admins/mods answer plainly without offering a workaround. Classic small-thread FkN0wned energy: quick answers, some ribbing, and staff popping in to shut down bypass requests.

of course it is impossible.— Teamkillexpert

well nothing is impossible— minitureman

No, most materials nowadays will get you kicked from the server.— Shifty.

Is Coconut 2.7.2 Still Undetected?

A quick detection check for a CS:S cheat spirals into forum wisdom about not riding a hack too long.

A member named Night Stalker asks whether the 'Coconut 2.7.2' cheat for Counter-Strike: Source was still undetected after a Steam update. Regulars chime in with the classic mix of sarcasm ('Try it and find out'), casual advice about not overusing cheats on a fresh account to limit risk, and a tangent into a wallhack release and gripes about broken-file reports and server-side requirements for other tools. It's a small, low-stakes support thread typical of the era's cheat-scene chatter — quick, casual, and full of shorthand nobody outside the community would fully parse.

Try it and find out.— lol

CS:S - How Experienced Are U All?

One guy clocked 1752 hours in under a year and did the math on how many days that was

A casual poll thread in the Counter-Strike: Source General board asking members how long they'd been playing the game. The poll skewed heavily toward veterans (over 82% had played more than 12 months), with a mix of old 1.6-era players reminiscing back to 2003 and a brand new player admitting he could barely break a 1 K/D on Dust2. Mostly good-natured, low-drama chatter typical of a game-loyalty check-in thread.

coming up to a year nowa nd i have played 1752 hours lol, holy shit thaT LIKE 70 DAYS WORTH..— ohsnap999

Too long hah, played Since Like 03? (1.6 and since CSS Release.) O my.— QuiX

same name?non-bannable?

A newbie asks how to dodge a CS:S ban by copying someone else's name — old-school name-spoofing lore ensues.

A member named MostWanter opens a thread on the Counter-Strike: Source General board asking how players duplicate another user's in-game name and how banned players sneak back into servers. Regulars -Darkness-, blacknight00, Afteryou, and anthrax_hax chime in with quick, half-joking technical banter about old Windows character-code tricks and tilde spam used to fake identical names, while noting some methods may already be patched. The thread ends abruptly when MostWanter throws out a confusing side-question about someone called 'elder chris gordon' getting back into banned servers, leaving -Darkness- baffled.

wait......dude WHAT? I am sorry...but wtf is your second question.— -Darkness-

no they didn't lol— Afteryou

"hack this account" — abandoned Steam account thread

A guy offers up his mate's abandoned Steam account for the taking, and the thread immediately derails into a debate on whether Steam accounts can even be "hacked"

A member named 'soccer' posted that a friend's Steam account (with CS:S, DOD:S, HL2 and more) was sitting inactive after the owner went off to college, seemingly inviting others to take it over. This kicked off a short back-and-forth where regulars pushed back on the phrasing, pointing out you can't really 'hack' Steam accounts, only phish or brute force them, while others questioned whether the whole thing was even legit. A minor, low-drama thread typical of the cheat-scene chatter in the CS:S General subforum.

You cannot hack steam accounts. You can only phish or brute force them.— that 1 dude

lol are u fkn serious? whos account is that?— RecoileZ

He means any way possible, by the term "hacking"... Don't be a nub spammer.— pherball

How to Buy Restricted Weapons (CS:S Console Trick)

The old AWP-buy console trick that half of CS:S already knew but everyone still upvoted anyway

A 2007 thread on Fkn0wned's Counter-Strike: Source General board where user rnie shared a well-worn console command trick to bypass server-side weapon restrictions (like disabled AWPs and auto-snipers) on Mani admin plugin servers. The replies are the real texture of the thread: a mix of thanks, 'this is old news' shrugs, requests for a CS 1.6 equivalent, and a few users reporting it no longer worked on their servers. Classic small-forum energy — low stakes, quick tips, some point-farming, and casual community back-and-forth.

wow this is fucking old but still good— __yess__

Now only if this would work for 1.6— Legit_Hacks

PS : POINT DONATING IS APPRECIATED— rnie

Dragon Brothers Clan Looking for a Sponsor

A clan leader wandered into fkn0wned begging for sponsorship money and got roasted for it

A user named skejcik, self-described leader of the 'Dragon Brothers' clan, posted an awkward pitch asking fkn0wned to sponsor his clan's public server and war server, listing stats like member count and daily visits. Regulars DJSketch, banak, and bobbafett07 quickly clocked it as either a recruitment attempt or a blatant ask for free sponsorship and called it out with a mix of confusion and mockery. The thread is a short, mundane but charmingly of-its-era snapshot of small clan life and forum culture, where random outside clans would try their luck advertising on bigger boards.

We searching an Sponsor for an Public and [WarServer]— skejcik

So what you Want FKN to sponsor you??— DJSketch

Wait, Your advertising your clan for sponsors on...— bobbafett07

about hacks.. (why won't they work on RPG servers?)

A confused cheat user asks why his hacks work fine on GG/DM but die on RPG servers — cue the community troubleshooting session.

A member going by ~1337H4x0R~ posts asking why his cheat client works on GunGame/Deathmatch servers but not on CS:S RPG-mod servers. Other regulars like DJSketch and bobbafett07 chime in with theories about OS compatibility and swap notes on which cheat releases were considered reliable versus 'dirty' (rumored to carry trojans). It's a small, casual support-thread typical of the board's cheat-scene culture, with a bit of community gossip about which providers were trustworthy.

i need a hack that works on rpg servers...— IxPKxALL

I heard P7 was dirty too. I used to use Holzed v1.2FIX on RPG servers fine.— bobbafett07

I have been told that [censored] puts trojans in there hacks so I don't eve try them.— DJSketch

Convert 1.6 maps to source?

One nostalgic CS 1.6 fan rages at Source's version of de_cpl_mill — too many trees, not enough nostalgia.

A short, casual thread in the CS:S General subforum where member bobbafett07 laments that the Source port of the classic 1.6 map de_cpl_mill added grass and orange trees that 'shouldn't be there,' and asks if there's a tool to convert 1.6 maps to Source. Fellow members DJSketch and banak chime in with pointers toward FPSBanana and general mapmaking/Hammer advice, but nothing conclusive. bobbafett07 closes out still unimpressed, unwilling to bother learning Hammer just to fix the map's look.

THERES NOT SUPPOSED TO BE GRASS OR ORANGE TREES >=[— bobbafett07

De_cpl_mill is possibly the best map EVER and now In source theres trees and grass everywhere.... :| Not impressed.— bobbafett07

What is the best detected hack?

A guy nostalgic for banned cheats asks the room: what's the best one you've ever run, VAC be damned?

A short-lived General thread in the CS:S section where a member asks the community to nominate their favorite hack of all time, VAC-detection status irrelevant. Only one reply landed before the thread went quiet, from a since-banned user reminiscing about an old cheat that got his account banned and touting a replacement. Pretty low-key thread, but a small time capsule of the era's cheat-swapping culture and the casual account-banning that came with it.

What is the best hack you know of? Detected doesnt matter— banak

i used to use holz 1.1 all the time until my account got banned now i use vip hacks they never get vac2 detected !— 4Saken

Newbie Asks for CS:S Wallhacks, Gets Pointed to the Classics

A CS:S noob wanders into the wrong section asking for wallhacks — gets moved, mocked lightly, and pointed to the classics.

A brand-new member (2 posts) asks for a working, undetectable wallhack/radar for Counter-Strike: Source, initially posting in the wrong forum section entirely. A moderator relocates the thread to the CS:S board, and a couple of regulars chime in with recommendations of the era, name-dropping a few contemporary wallhack tools and pointing to the site's cheat database. It's a small, mundane slice of the forum's everyday traffic — new users fumbling forum etiquette while old hands casually swap cheat recommendations.

css, oops i did put thisin the wrong section, me=noob— [voidhybrid]

Well, alters is good but SB-X Wallhack is very nice aswell. Give them a try— nightshadefc

Bunny Hop - how do u do it?

A newbie asks how to bunny hop in CS:S and gets the classic 'just use a script/hack' forum wisdom.

A member named JGSkpx0389 opens a beginner thread asking whether bunny hopping in Counter-Strike: Source requires a special script or config, tired of conflicting rumors. Staff member HaSh chimes in with a half-joking answer about needing serious skill or just using a hack with a built-in bhop script, earning himself the tongue-in-cheek 'Pointless thread starter' member title. Another member, strang0r, drops a YouTube tutorial link while admitting he can't even bhop himself, and staff member Arcade appears at the tail end. A small, low-key tech-help thread typical of the CS:S general subforum.

You have to be really good to bunny hop without a script, otherwise you need a script. I just use any hack, they usually have bunny hop scripts built in.— HaSh

maybe it helps... i don't really know, cause i can't bunnyhop myself ^^— strang0r

New member complains his stacked cheat collection still can't compete on a 'hack server'

A newer member named thebestmilfhunt posts asking for recommendations for a more effective aimbot/cheat, explaining that despite already having a whole pile of named cheat tools he was still getting outclassed on servers where hacking was the norm. Forum regular Smug replies with a couple of casual suggestions, the second one seemingly half-joking. It's a small, low-stakes exchange typical of the cheat-request threads that filled the Counter-Strike: Source General subforum in this era.

Does anybody know a good public haxx with a really fast aimbot etc— thebestmilfhunt

Try Grim Hacks Public RAGE preview V0.1 then ;P— Smug

Unzoomed Sniper Crosshair Question

A newbie wanted a crosshair on his unzoomed sniper — the thread ends with him threatening to just stick blue tac on his monitor

A brand-new member named poon asked how to get a crosshair while unzoomed on a sniper rifle in CS:S, and how to remove the black vignette around the scope. A few regulars chimed in with skin suggestions and other approaches, with one member cheekily pointing out a hack existed with that feature built in. The thread wraps up with poon giving up on a technical fix and joking about just using blue tac on his physical screen instead.

aight ill just use some blue tac and put it on my screen lol— poon

or u cud just use a hack that has a crosshair feat...— pyeman

hl2hook, PLEASE HELP

A freshly-Vista'd member begs the CS:S board to help him track down his old favorite hook after a reformat wipes it out

A low-post member named sam_.GSC returns after reformatting to Windows Vista, hoping to re-download the old HL2Hook cheat he'd used for six months without getting VAC banned. Regular Afteryou and bobbafett07 chime in, clarifying the tool he means and pointing out that HL2Hook simply doesn't work on Vista. The thread fizzles out quickly with sam thanking them and no file ever actually being shared, a pretty mundane but classic slice of the era's cheat-hunting traffic.

although i have no posts i am a longtime member or lurker ^.^— sam_.GSC

HL2Hook doesn't work on Vista anyway.— bobbafett07

Alters WH map pack re-upload request

A dead link, a wallhack map pack, and one guy who really wants that 9/10 experience back

A member on the CS:S General board asks for a re-upload of a broken download link for 'Alters Wallhack' - a wallhack map pack covering almost all maps. Staff member AKULA points to a Fileplanet map pack link, but the OP clarifies he specifically needs the wallhack maps, not just regular maps. Another member chimes in with a nostalgic mini-review, praising the pack despite a long install time. Pretty standard low-stakes CS:S cheat-scene housekeeping thread, with a couple of staff/veteran regulars dropping in.

can som1 re-upload it again!! the links is broken— __yess__

alters wallhack was very good it have all maps! bot it take long time to installer, if i rate it will i give it 9/10— PATRICKHANSEN4200

Registry - Fkn0wned.Com

One guy just wanted the same registry settings on every server — got told to fix his rates and shut down with a 1.6 vs Source jab.

A short, low-key thread in the CS:S General board where a member named Epic Failure asked whether it was possible to get consistent 'registry' behavior across different servers. Regular ballistic suggested it was a rates issue, Epic Failure pushed back saying his rates already matched server settings, and bobbafett07 closed it out with a classic dig blaming Source's netcode and declaring 1.6 the better game. A tiny, mundane slice of the forum's day-to-day tech-support chatter and the eternal 1.6-vs-Source rivalry.

Source's netcode. Another reason 1.6 is better.— bobbafett07

fix rates— ballistic

I heard neferty 1.5 was out, true?

One member asks if the legendary 'neferty' cheat got a new version — the answer wasn't good news.

A short thread in the Counter-Strike: Source General board where user bdww00 asks if a rumored 1.5 version of the 'neferty' cheat had been released, having seen mention of it on another forum. Member rnie confirms it existed but warns it would get you banned, and bdww00 replies that they hadn't used the older 1.4 version in a couple months. A quick, low-key exchange typical of the cheat-scene chatter that filled this section of the forum.

Yes it was out, but it will get you banned, you be...— rnie

Oh, last time I used 1.4 was about 2 months ago, d...— bdww00

Chams

A CS:S newbie asks about wallhack chams and gets gently schooled on the difference between chams and skins.

A short, low-stakes thread in the Counter-Strike: Source General subforum from December 2007, where a member called Epic Failure asks whether 'chams' (a visual cheat that makes players glow through walls) exist for CS:S, worried about looking too obvious while using a wallhack. A few regulars, including ballistic, chime in to clarify that what's being described are actually model skins rather than true chams, which change color based on visibility through walls. It's a mundane but genuine slice of the era's cheat-scene chatter, more curiosity and clarification than drama.

those arent chams though, they are just skins, mine change colors when you are behind a wall n such— ballistic

is it possible to get Chams for CS:S which are material because if I'm using a wallhack in a real game and i prefire a guy walking because i cant see the wall itself people will know I'm hacking— Epic Failure
