The Great Site-Ranking Graph Thread

A guy named Industry posts a traffic chart and half the forum shows up just to talk their site up

A member called Industry posts a six-month traffic comparison graph showing Fkn0wned.com ('we are blue') doing well against rival cheat/gaming sites, and asks people to go vote for the site in a poll to help it climb the rankings. What follows is a short, good-natured pile-on of members hyping up the community, taking cheap shots at a rival site (shusko.net) and joking that Fkn0wned only trails competitors because it's 'the laziest site of hackers ever.' One veteran, Peski-Ruski, nostalgically name-drops the legendary 'third week of August' as peak forum drama and debate, giving a glimpse of the site's own internal lore even within this thread.

we are blue if you didnt know that. we are doing pretty good— Industry
No, its because we dont give a fuck and can beat the other 99 sites combined.— mr.N0Nam3
Oh I remember the 3rd week of August, was fucking awesome, best debates, best discussions. But so much drama lol.— Peski-Ruski

ShareTheAmateur Offline.

Fkn0wned's in-house amateur porn site quietly pulls the plug — 3,000+ members left asking 'where do we get our fix now?'

Founder TuxifieD announces that ShareTheAmateur.com, a sister site tied to the forum, has been discontinued due to lack of manpower to run it properly, despite gaining over 3,000 members quickly. Members react with a mix of disappointment and pragmatism, floating ideas like selling the site to an investor or folding its porn gallery into the main Fkn0wned forum under a revived 'XXX Crew' of old moderators. A former ShareTheAmateur moderator (C4nn4fix) laments having just uploaded hundreds of images before the shutdown, while others swap suggestions for alternative porn sites to fill the gap.

We have discontinued sharetheamateur.com , you can leave your comments and questions here. I believe we do not have the man power to make it what we want to make it right now.— TuxifieD

The Art of Trolling

A forum smod's field guide to six classic breeds of internet troll, tested live in the replies within minutes.

Kimmi, a Super Moderator, posted a lengthy how-to breakdown of forum trolling archetypes (the Stupid Troll, Flaming Troll, Intelligent Troll, Sockpuppet, Disgusting Troll, and Internet Tough Guy), framed as a tongue-in-cheek guide to sowing chaos 'for the lulz.' The thread is short but has the classic fkn0wned energy: dry humor, mock-serious structure, and immediate ribbing from fellow staff. Fellow smod ap3x and crew member vermiLLion chime in with a joking exchange that basically trolls the trolling guide itself, capping the thread off in true community fashion.

By following and using the techniques in this guide you should be well on your way to d1cking off most of the internet.— Kimmi

Your 'handle' - origin stories thread

Old-school members trade the real story behind their gamer tags — DedCon, Industry, miLLer and more

A casual Off-Topic thread from December 2007 where user DedCon asks fellow members whether they've kept the same online handle over the years or kept switching it up like the trendy XXXxxx-style names. Regulars and a couple of staff members (miLLer, HaSh) chime in with the backstory of their own nicknames, some dating back to the late 90s/early 2000s gaming and 'hacker scene' days. It's a low-stakes, nostalgic nickname-swapping thread with light ribbing about a double post.

Can Kathleen be the new queen? — the 'FknLady' crush thread

A video, a boxxy diss, and a forum crush campaign to crown fkn0wned's next 'FknLady'

TuxifieD reposts a video of forum member Kathleen (kathleenstr) that had apparently been pulled before, noting she's back on good terms with the community and isn't a fan of the infamous 'Boxxy' meme. The thread spirals into classic early-2010s forum banter — demands for 'tits or GTFO,' ASCII art crowning her queen, admins and regulars weighing in with a mix of hype and backhanded compliments, and someone pointing out afterward exactly why the original video got taken down in the first place. Kathleen herself pops in a few times, mostly self-conscious about how she looks on camera., and the whole thing reads as a snapshot of the forum's female-attention-thread genre.

Help Get Fkn0wned Back on Top! (Voting Drive Thread)

The one where staff begged members to proxy-vote the site back up the rankings

A long-running (8-page) General Discussion thread where Fkn0wned members and staff rallied the community to vote for the site, apparently in some kind of top-sites/gaming portal ranking contest, trying to reclaim lost ground after falling behind competitors. Co-Manager Shifty and other veterans repeatedly bumped the thread urging everyone to vote, with talk of using proxies to get around vote limits. It's a snapshot of forum community-building culture circa 2007-2008, complete with casual crude banter and a random tangent about a mysterious 'Gold Member' banner.

Hacked Facebook Logs (A-Nihilist vs. Kasumi)

A hijacker mocks a hospitalized victim's crying best friend live in chat — the forum found it hilarious.

A-Nihilist posted a chat log bragging about (or documenting) taking over someone's Facebook, in which the victim's friend 'Kasumi' pleads with the hacker 'Alexander' to give the account back, revealing the victim had just left the hospital. The exchange turns callous and homophobic fast, with the hacker mocking the situation instead of showing remorse. Rather than condemning it, most repliers in General Discussion treated the log as comedy gold, quoting the cruelest lines approvingly, though a couple of members (OldSchool) pushed back saying it went too far. Classic era-appropriate cheat-scene callousness: account theft treated as lulz content rather than as a real harm.

why are u such a mean person— Kasumi
That's the problem. If he wasn't a fag he wouln't have a Tumor— Alexander/A-Nihilist

"doing c0ke first time tonight =)" — the classic Off-Topic overshare thread

A member announces he's about to try cocaine and the forum reacts exactly how you'd expect.

A late-page continuation of an Off-Topic thread where a member shares (with a winking emoticon) that he's trying cocaine for the first time, prompting a mix of deadpan jokes, mild concern, and other members casually admitting their own drug use. Staff/mod Panda pops in with dry one-liners, and regular MeTaLn2 nonchalantly says he's already done it several times. Typical mid-2000s gaming-forum Off-Topic energy: shock-value confessional post, low-stakes ribbing, no real drama or intervention, just forum banter around a taboo topic.

Most Epic 12 Minutes of Your Life (the 'Bitch Be Trippin'' Thread)

Bastus dropped a radio prank clip and half of Fkn0wned quoted 'Bitch be trippin'' for weeks.

Member Bastus shared a link to a viral radio prank recording (a cheating-girlfriend confrontation bit from 1057 The Point) that quickly became a running meme in General Discussion. Members piled on with laughing reactions, quoting the clip's catchphrase 'Bitch be trippin'' over and over, with mild debate over whether the girl in the recording deserved the on-air roasting. It's a classic low-stakes off-topic thread showing the forum's casual, meme-happy social side outside of the cheat/gaming scene.

Tennis rankings, #1 records, and one guy who just wants to hack a bank — fkn0wned shares its life plans

A laid-back General Discussion thread from January 2010 where -Alex asks members to share their life goals, no matter how unrealistic. Replies range from sincere (university, careers, starting a family, world travel) to joking (producing a #1 record, hacking a bank, the classic 'money and women' one-liner). It's a snapshot of a young, mixed-age forum crowd musing about their futures, closed out by a moderator jab at the thread starter that got the topic locked.

How to Connect to the Fkn0wned IRC Server

The sticky nobody read: a step-by-step guide to the FkN IRC channel that everyone still messed up

A member named h4voCK wrote a beginner-friendly walkthrough for connecting to the Fkn0wned IRC server using mIRC or XChat, complete with SSL setup instructions, aimed at stopping the flood of members asking how to connect over MSN. It got stickied by a moderator despite sticky-fatigue on the board, and the replies turned into a mini tech-support thread with a member named slingblade struggling through connection errors, other members offering fixes, cracked software links, and BNC workarounds. Someone even noted the actual IRC channel was 'damn near deserted' once they finally got in — a small, telling moment about the community's fading activity.

I'm personally sick of how many people can't connect to the FkN IRC. It's not that hard.— h4voCK

Post Your Photo (pages 9-12)

The classic forum face-reveal thread where teenagers roasted each other's pics and someone got banned for a one-line self-own.

A long-running 'Post your photo' thread in General Discussion where members shared pictures of themselves and got immediately clowned by regulars. Typical of the genre: age guesses, flirty comments, cleavage jokes, and low-effort trolling, with at least one member (Imoderatemyfun) posting a single slur-laden line before being banned. Staff and long-time '1000 Club' members like The Moose, Goodapollo, and Industry weigh in with the usual snark, keeping the thread's tone loose, juvenile, and very much of its era.

"I HAVE HACKED IT" — SpaZy's Nested HTML Header Flex

A guy nested an HTML header inside a header and declared himself a coding god — the mods were not impressed.

SpaZy posted a trivial snippet of HTML (a header tag nested inside another header tag) and claimed it as some kind of hacking feat, demanding recognition as head of a coding group. The thread was immediately clowned by regulars and staff for being pointless, complete with a mock 'FAIL TOPIC' rebuttal and a meatspin link, before an admin locked it as pointless. A perfect little snapshot of low-stakes forum trolling and the community's quick, sarcastic pile-on culture.

Mod's Phishing Kit Stash & Swap Thread (2009)

A mod openly shares a giant stash of fake-login pages for AOL, eBay, PayPal, Steam and more, asking members to trade more back.

In this General Discussion thread from March 2009, a site moderator ('FkN' Smod) announces he's 'starting phishing again' and posts a long list of phishing kits he's made for sites ranging from Steam, PayPal, and Skype to Habbo, Myspace, and even Megaupload, then solicits other members to contribute more. It's a blunt, almost casual snapshot of the era's cheat-scene culture, where account theft tools were traded openly like any other download. The reply that follows is just a brief acknowledgment, suggesting the thread likely continued across its six pages with more submissions.

Yeah, i'm gonna start phishing again, i'll phish any accounts/any website.— FkNwnedWasHere

End of 2009 Recap Thread

FkN0wned members look back on 2009 — and it goes about as well as you'd expect.

A year-end nostalgia/recap thread started by mod PopTart asking members to reflect on notable events of 2009, name-checking Obama's election and Michael Jackson's death. Replies quickly veer into crude, racially charged jokes and casual forum-culture references (site drama, a purge of members, forum changes, and the death of a member named NIX). Fewer than five replies total, but it's a small time-capsule of the forum's blunt, unmoderated tone circa late 2009.

Three Word Game

A staple forum time-waster spirals into a chaotic, off-color collaborative story — because of course it does.

A classic 'add three words to the story' game thread started by founder TuxifieD in the General Discussion board, one of those low-effort/high-engagement threads that forums ran to keep people posting. Regulars including Kimmi, deX-, ap3x, Emrys, and lam3r chain together a nonsensical, often crude collective story about a stolen bike, fried chicken, and other tasteless detours typical of the era's edgy forum humor. Smod Kimmi even suggests these threads deserve to be stickied for being reliably popular. It's a good time-capsule of the community's casual, juvenile, no-filter tone rather than anything about hacks or drama.

Will The Pirate Bay Survive? (2009 Verdict Watch)

2009: the day fkn0wned collectively held its breath for The Pirate Bay's verdict.

A thread from General Discussion started the day before the real-world Pirate Bay trial verdict, with the OP asking members what they thought would happen to the torrent site. Replies are nostalgic and half-joking, with members reminiscing about TPB being their first torrent site and vowing loyalty ('t-shirt') even if it got shut down. It's a small time-capsule of the community reacting to actual internet-culture news of the era rather than forum-internal drama.

OMG, I hope it doesn't get shut down. If it does, I'll still wear my TPB t-shirt.— OmfgzATree

Advertise VIA Myspace for fkn0wned! GET TO SPAMMING!

The day fkn0wned's CEO handed out a MySpace mass-messaging tool and told the forum to go spam the site's name across the internet

CEO member TuxifieD posted a downloadable tool (with mirrors on Rapidshare, DepositFiles, and Easy-Share) meant for mass-posting fkn0wned links and images across MySpace profiles, advising members to use redirect links and off-domain image hosts to dodge MySpace's URL blocking. It's a classic self-promotion/growth-hacking thread typical of the era, with member blackxthink chiming in about the practical limits of only being able to spam friends' pages. A very 2007 snapshot of forum culture: informal, scrappy site marketing using whatever tools and workarounds were on hand.

remember that myspace will block a URL eventually so dont use the actual domain, use redirects and images hosted at random hosting places.— TuxifieD

fkn0wned Friend: Naming Your fknbuddy

A casual General Discussion thread from December 2007 where a member asked others to name the person on the forum they'd connected with most, whether an old friend or a recent one. Replies were short and personal, with regulars naming specific usernames as their 'fknbuddy.' It's a small, sentimental slice of community bonding rather than any drama or tech talk.

Official FkN TF2 Server 20-Man Recruitment Post

FkN goes legit: staff pitch a 'no hacking allowed' TF2 server and hunts for CAL/Highlander talent

A staff member named Nerf advertised the community's own Team Fortress 2 server, hosted in Tampa, Florida, as a fast-respawn 20-man box running regular and custom maps. The post doubles as recruitment for the upcoming CAL/Highlander competitive season and for dedicated server admins, with a public Ventrilo channel offered as the hangout spot. Notably, for a forum built around cheat databases and cheat culture, this post insists the server is '100% legit' with permanent bans (including for texture hacks) for anyone caught cheating.

Staff Emails — The Official Verified Contact List

The stickied list every member checked before trusting a DM: 'if their email isn't here, block them.'

A locked, pinned reference thread from Fkn0wned's admin team listing verified staff contact emails, posted so members could confirm they were really talking to an admin, mod, or crew member and not an impersonator. Maintained by [FkN] PopTart with an ongoing changelog stretching from August 2010 into mid-2011, tracking staff additions, removals, and role changes over that year. The update log itself is a quiet timeline of the site's internal churn — mods coming and going, roles shuffled, a 'Founder' title handed out, and a 'massive update' by NIX in July 2011.</br>

Staff members will not ask for your passwords or account credentials. If someone messages your claiming to be a staff member and their email is not on this list, please block them.— [FkN] PopTart

Poster DCLXVI lists several members newly promoted to Manager, Supervisor, and Staff roles, and calls on the community to congratulate them. The thread ran to at least four pages before eventually being closed by Afteryou, suggesting it drew a solid wave of replies and well-wishes typical of forum staff-shuffle announcements.

The classic 'post your room' thread — webcams, clutter, and someone getting roasted for having 'much coke' in frame.

A lighthearted Off-Topic thread where Fkn0wned members posted photos of their bedrooms/setups, likely with webcam pics or digital cameras of the era. This snippet catches a bit of the banter, with one member (The Moose) jokingly ribbing user 'Bisdale' about their room's contents. A staff member (Jaska, a Super Moderator) also chimed in, showing the mods mingled in casual off-topic threads too.

A classic clickbait troll thread on fkn0wned's General Discussion board: the title alone lured members in, only for the OP to reveal a Chris Hansen ('To Catch a Predator') image as the punchline. Members played along, quoting the show's famous 'why don't you have a seat over there' line at everyone who admitted clicking, turning the thread into a chain of self-aware ribbing. It's pure forum bit humor with no real content, eventually locked by staff as a joke thread run its course.

Failed Admin Mod Scam Callout

A guy tried to sell a server admin mod but refused to prove it existed — the chat log is a masterclass in getting clowned.

Member smexy123 posted a chat log where someone going by killer_j attempted to sell an 'admin mod' for a server but repeatedly refused to demo it, deteriorating into insults and denials when pressed. The thread's replies pile on, with another member (eskimo123321) identifying killer_j as a known figure from a rival clan with a reputation for banning people unfairly and shorting clans on server deals. The general vibe is mockery and pile-on humor typical of the forum's off-topic drama threads, with several posters just laughing at the failed scam attempt and swapping reaction images.

Guess What # I'm Thinking Of? Win a Steam Account

One number, one Steam account loaded with CSS/DOD:S/TF2 — and half the forum piling in with guesses in minutes

Forum staple PopTart (Warez King / Smod) ran a simple number-guessing giveaway from 1-150, offering up a Steam account stacked with Counter-Strike: Source, Day of Defeat: Source, and Team Fortress 2 as the prize. The thread instantly filled with a rapid-fire cross-section of the community — VIPs, 500 Club regulars, and total noobs alike — firing off guesses, with a one-guess-per-12-hours rule added after the fact to slow the flood.

LSD Trip Reports and Drug Rankings Thread

conTagious kicks off a very stoned trip report and half the forum shows up with their own drug rankings

A December 2009 General Discussion thread where longtime member conTagious shares a months-old LSD trip story, sparking a casual back-and-forth about weed, GHB, speed, and ecstasy among regulars. The tone is light and joking rather than serious, with members swapping personal anecdotes, warnings about GHB's dangers, and general off-topic banter typical of the forum's non-gaming side. It's a good snapshot of the loose, anything-goes culture of the General Discussion board outside of the site's usual cheat/gaming focus.

Most Useless Thing in the World!

A random 2010 shitpost thread that somehow became a legendary 'FUCKING AMERICANS' meme moment

A quick, low-effort thread where fkngames posted an image (long since dead link) mocking some pointless novelty product, sparking a cascade of one-liners mocking Americans and consumer culture. Regulars like PopTart, NIX, and Kimmi piled on with laughs, and one poster admitted they thought the thread would be about an unrelated 'fake ass hug' meme circulating at the time, revealing overlapping in-jokes across the board.

Rebelz's 150+ Rapidshare Premium Account Giveaway Thread

One user dumped 150+ Rapidshare premium logins on the forum — and people STILL managed to break them within pages.

A long-running General Discussion thread on Fkn0wned.Com where member Rebelz repeatedly gave away large batches of Rapidshare premium accounts to the community, framing it as a contribution to the forum rather than something worth selling. The thread is mostly a stream of thanks, requests, and reports that some accounts had already stopped working because other members changed the passwords, with Rebelz periodically scolding 'leaching noobs' and asking for PayPal donations in exchange for posting more accounts or private access. It ran across at least 8 pages, showing steady engagement typical of the site's cheat/warez-sharing culture.

I don't care... I really have no use for all of these and selling them would just take too much time and I like to contribute to the fkn community.— Rebelz
Lot's have been changed already due to you leaching noobs.— Rebelz
some of this still works.. i have shared them with ppl on other sides.. dont worry they wont change the pws.. i will guarantee— haha.1

BONxFIRE's Birthday Thread

The whole crew pops in just to say happy birthday to a Graphics Crew regular — classic fkn0wned fluff at its finest.

A simple birthday thread for member BONxFIRE, part of the [FkN] Graphics Crew, kicked off by admin ZoaQ 'stealing' the thread idea as a joke. Dozens of regulars, VIPs, and staff (Smods, Crew members, 2K/1K club veterans) drop in one-liner birthday wishes, ranging from sincere to crude in typical forum banter style. It's a low-stakes, high-nostalgia thread that shows off the community's tight-knit, joke-heavy culture rather than any cheat/tech content.

Fkn0wned Holiday Giveaway - Week 3: Win Lifetime VIP

Reply, log in at the right moment, and a moderator might hand you lifetime VIP for free.

An official staff-run raffle thread from December 2009, hosted by [FkN] Smod ap3x, giving away two Lifetime VIP prizes (access equivalent to the site's paid VIP hack tier) during the site's holiday giveaway series. Entry was simple — just reply once — with rules barring staff, existing VIPs, and past winners, plus a requirement to be online at the actual drawing. The thread is mostly a long chain of members casually signing up, some bantering with ap3x, alongside a bit of side commentary about low-post-count members potentially not deserving a shot.

I have been asked numerous times via PM if this giveaway does include the VIP hack, the answer: YES IT DOES!— ap3x
Not tryna be a dick but I dont think people under 300 posts should get it or join. They can leak a bunch of shit which wouldnt be good for FKN— Mystik

Demonoid Invite Hookups (Oct 2007)

Back when the hottest currency on the forum wasn't rep points — it was a Demonoid invite code.

A short, friendly General Discussion thread from October 2007 where a few members offered up spare Demonoid torrent-tracker invitations to fellow forumgoers, gatekeeping them mostly by post count and reputation rather than handing them out to 'one post wonders.' It's a low-drama, everyday slice of the forum's culture — people helping each other get access to the wider internet's goodies, some banter about Tiscali throttling torrents, and a mild dig at Demonoid's content quality. A super moderator even nudges the generous members to spread the invites around to the [1K] 1000 Club crowd.

Merry Christmas From Me! (2007)

The one time the whole fkn0wned crew put down the cheats and just said Merry Christmas.

A short, warm holiday thread from Christmas Eve 2007 where Media Crew member Sammo wished the community a merry Christmas before going inactive for the week, inviting others to post their own holiday messages. A handful of staff and media crew regulars (toby., Goodapollo, Industry) dropped in with quick well-wishes and inside-joke replies. It's a low-key, feel-good thread rather than a drama or cheat-related one — just a snapshot of the site's community taking a break together.

Merry Christmas Everybody. Please place your christmas message in this thread for everyone!— Sammo

The Next Time I See Kathleen...

deX- posts a curb-stomp video as a threat over some girl named Kathleen — chaos and dark jokes ensue

A short, absurd General Discussion thread from May 2010 where member deX- links a violent movie clip (the 'curb-stomp' scene) as a dramatic stand-in for his feelings about a girl named Kathleen. What follows is classic fkn0wned banter — mods and regulars ribbing him, mock-serious warnings about assault charges, and a running gag from lulraep about a girl who 'left the kitchen.' It's less a real conflict than a bunch of regulars riffing on dark humor for laughs, with staff like Kimmi and NIX jumping in to troll deX- rather than take it seriously.

Can Someone Get This Guy Back For Me?

Guy gets scammed on a website coding job, tries to crowdsource revenge with a free CoD4 key — forum says 'not your personal army'

Member Tzaxo posted asking the community to help retaliate against a coder who took his money for a website job and never delivered, offering up the guy's MSN and website and even dangling a free (clean) CoD4: MW key as a reward for anyone willing to help. The thread quickly got shut down by regulars invoking the classic 'not your personal army' response, with a couple of members telling him to just learn the skills himself using the site's tutorials. One poster summed it up with blunt indifference about getting ripped off being 'part of life.'

Steps of using Vac_2_Disabler_v3

A noob asks how to load his CS:S cheat, gets scolded to 'think for yourself' — then everyone just complains about lag anyway.

A 2006 thread from Fkn0wned's General Discussion where new member tonylam asks basic setup questions about combining a no-recoil hack with the 'Vac_2_Disabler_v3' loader for Counter-Strike: Source. Forum regular Malware answers gruffly but helpfully, clarifying which file gets renamed, while other members chime in about the setup causing major FPS drops and lag from a memory leak. It's a classic slice of mid-2000s cheat-scene culture: impatient veterans, clueless newcomers, and cheats that half-worked at the cost of your framerate.

The 'Now Playing' Thread

Seven pages of 2007 forum kids sharing whatever was stuck in their headphones — from Thrice to Lupe Fiasco to Wu-Tang.

A long-running Off-Topic staple where members just posted whatever song they were listening to at the moment, no real debate or drama, just a casual running log of mid/late-2000s music taste. Genres bounce all over the place — screamo/post-hardcore (Thrice), gangsta rap (Dr. Dre, Bone Thugs), pop-punk (Paramore), and fresh releases like Lupe Fiasco's 'The Cool' getting hyped the day it dropped. It's a low-stakes, feel-good community thread that mostly shows off the personalities and profile flair (custom titles, group ranks) of regular posters.

Is Phishing Gonna Be Extinct Any Time Soon?

A 2009 forum debate asks if Steam phishing is dying out — spoiler: nobody thought so

A short General Discussion thread from December 2009 where forum regular NIX asked whether phishing (specifically Steam account phishing, common in the cheat/gaming scene at the time) was on its way out. Members weighed in with a mix of cynicism and casual admissions of past involvement, generally agreeing phishing would just evolve rather than disappear as long as there were 'dumb people' to fall for it. The thread is brief but captures the casual, matter-of-fact attitude toward account theft and scene 'phishing' culture typical of the era.

aslong as there are dumb people, there will be phising. so No it will not be extinct any time soon.— conTagious

Free Online Mail Bomber Tool Release

m1sterfopje drops a free 'send unlimited fake mail' tool and the whole board immediately asks who's gonna get bombed

User m1sterfopje shared a self-hosted web tool that could send mass emails while spoofing the sender address, pitching it as usable for pranking or 'bombing' someone's inbox. The thread got a warm, jokey reception from regulars who praised it, asked to have it stickied, and traded tips about spam filters and spoofing tricks. It's a small but vivid snapshot of the site's early-2010s script-kiddie/prank culture, with staff and long-time members (ap3x, Kimmi, PopTart, f0wh) all chiming in casually.

Taunting a "Steam Administrator"

A wannabe Steam phisher gets played by his own mark, live, in painfully bad grammar.

User MicroUltra posted a chat log of himself stringing along someone posing as an 'Automated IP Support' Steam admin trying to phish his account, feeding fake passwords and mocking the scammer's poor grammar and typos in real time. The thread quickly turned into the community dogpiling on the would-be scammer, with regulars picking apart his broken English ('r' for 'are', 'ur' for 'your') and general incompetence. A few posters suggested MicroUltra should have turned the tables and scammed the scammer's own account back, referencing a known account-recovery tactic from another user, br0kenrabbit. The tone throughout is mocking and gleeful, treating the failed scam attempt as free comedy rather than a real threat.

so fucking stupid, that 'steam' person is a fucking idiotic moron, seriously, a '0' for an 'o' and talks like a fucking 10 yr old just learning to type— ballistic
What I find pretty dumb, is that he didnt use proper grammar from the beginning when he was able to do it on command. like wtf... fail— kanetheheatsink

So many members o.O

A member noticed fkn0wned's user count exploding while its actual activity flatlined — cue a community-navel-gazing thread about fake growth vs. real regulars.

In this May 2008 General Discussion thread, member washingtonpayne raised a concern that fkn0wned had a swelling member list but only a handful of genuinely active users, wondering if someone was mass-creating accounts. Other regulars chimed in with theories: some blamed people joining just for cheat downloads rather than community involvement, others defended the site's stats as legitimate, and a few noted activity had dipped since a wave of members drifted away. It's a snapshot of a mid-size early cheat-scene forum grappling with growing pains and questioning its own health.

What a Fucking Night

Stoned, chased through a park by an RCMP trainee-turned-real-cop squad, and one guy still went back for his bong.

A staff member named HaSh recounts a chaotic night where he and a group of friends were chased through a park by police after kicking over an election sign near an RCMP trainee. He gives a detailed blow-by-blow (complete with a hand-drawn diagram) of the group scattering, most getting caught and crammed into a cop car, and two escaping. The thread quickly derails into a side argument between two regulars, ballistic and minitureman, bickering over grammar and age after a joking reply about the weed not being found. Fairly typical off-topic storytime thread with some low-stakes forum sniping tacked on.

Teamspeak!

Stewart sets up the community TeamSpeak, immediately breaks it, everyone piles on

Member Stewart announces a new community TeamSpeak server, opened up to all fkn0wned members with a dedicated tagged area for those with the forum tag, and casual talk of queuing CS:GO together turns into a small derail. The next day the server goes down and a chorus of regulars and staff report they can't connect, capped off by Stewart admitting he changed the address and broke it himself. A light, everyday slice-of-community thread showing off the forum's usual mix of VIPs, GFX staff, and Smods hanging out.

OOPS GUYS, MY B! Should be fixed. LOL changed the address.— Stewart

"For Those Who Don't Know" — Staff Rank Explainer

A supervisor breaks down fkn0wned's staff hierarchy, and immediately gets called out over a bogus warn.

A supervisor (posting as mr.N0Nam3 / later NoNamE!) lays out the site's staff ranking system for confused members, from CEO/Root Admin down to the '1K' 1000-post club, nicknamed 'our cheerleaders.' It reads as a recurring FAQ-style post explaining forum hierarchy. The thread quickly turns mildly petty when member sammo replies mostly to gripe about a warning he received for posting in the rants section, and another member (Industry) asks a genuine follow-up about the admin vs. super-moderator distinction. Small, everyday slice of forum bureaucracy and the minor status squabbles that came with it.

So how long has everyone been a member here?

A simple poll thread turns into a snapshot of who'd stuck around fkn0wned for years

A casual General Discussion poll thread from April 2009 asking members how long they'd been part of Fkn0wned.com, with options ranging from 'less than a month' to '2+ years'. Longtime members like EuphoricMurder, ZoaQ, and misterfopje checked in, mostly noting multi-year tenures despite being light posters who mainly lurked to see what the community offered. It's a low-key, nostalgic 'roll call' thread rather than anything dramatic — just members marking time on the site.

HaSh's Polar Bear Science Report Contest

A Supervisor bribed the forum with a VAC-banned CS:S account to write his homework for him

A Supervisor named HaSh posted a mini-contest asking members to write his overdue school report on polar bears (climate, diet, endangerment, food chain) in under an hour, offering a VAC-banned Steam account with CS:S/HL2 as the prize. It's a classic slice of mid-2000s forum culture: staff using their position for favors, homework outsourced to strangers online, and a low-stakes 'prize' that was already worthless since the account was banned. Gospel replied almost immediately, though the thread capture cuts off before any actual reports appear.

Ok, so I need a report about POLAR BEARS !— HaSh

Introduce Yourself Here! (General Discussion)

Every forum's rite of passage: the endless 'sup guys, I'm new here' thread that never really ends.

This was Fkn0wned.com's long-running welcome thread, where new members dropped their basic intro — name/alias, age, country, and a laundry list of games played — before diving into the rest of the forum. Post #401 shows a 16-year-old Singaporean member listing an impressive stack of mid-2000s games (Mu Online, WoW, CS, DotA, MapleSEA), while a staff member chimes in with a simple welcome. Classic low-stakes, high-volume community glue thread rather than drama or cheat talk.

A staffer publicly wished for 'a good hacker' to go mess up a rival site — thread got closed same day for 'failing'

A short-lived General Discussion thread where a Fkn0wned staff member ('Industry') vented about a rival site (referred to as 'mpc') whose members allegedly came into Fkn0wned trying to act '1337' and spam, only to flop. He floated the idea of someone retaliating against the site, half-jokingly asking where a 'good hacker' was when you needed one. A Supervisor ('Don Ruski') replied, but the thread was shut down by a moderator that same day with the note 'Thread Failed,' cutting the drama short before it could develop.

Whoever has the iPhone/iTouch - jailbreak chatter

Back when 'jailbreaking' your iPhone meant NES games and Mike Tyson's Punch-Out, not app stores.

A short 2007 thread in General Discussion where a member (posting under a since-banned account) shares links for jailbreaking the original iPhone/iTouch, describing it as safer than modding a PSP since a bad flash could just be undone via iTunes restore. Another member chimes in excitedly, listing off all the emulators, apps, and games they got running on their jailbroken device. Thread is marked as 'Graved' (closed) by moderator Janza, a common fate for old threads on this board.
