Questions! (the stoner-logic thread)

A guy asks 'why do waffles have little squares on them?!' and gets closed by a co-manager for it

A member named Industry, admittedly high, fired off a rambling list of stoner-logic non-sequiturs ('why is Yoshi green?', 'do people with AIDS see rainbows?', etc.) and invited others to add their own. It devolved into nostalgic ribbing about forum regular Peski Ruski's username being misread for months ('Pepsi Ruski', 'psehki ruksi'), plus a staffer's tangent about getting stoned on legal 'Spice'. Co-Manager Shifty closed the thread with a blunt 'Wtf is this?' — a small, funny snapshot of late-night off-topic chaos on the board.

why do waffles have little squares on them?! why is yoshi green?!— Industry

For my first 2 or 3 months actively posting here, i thought his name was "Pepsi" ruski— Goodapollo

Wtf is this?— Shifty

Steam Accounts, Hurry lol

A member dumps a pile of 'free' Steam accounts to buy some love — nobody's impressed, and a staffer calls it out cold.

Afteryou posted a batch of Steam account/password combos in General Discussion, seemingly trying to win favor with the community. Several members (prefeK, ballistic, Visio) quickly reported the accounts were dead or non-functional. Staff member miLLer shut it down hard, accusing Afteryou of trying to buy respect, and Afteryou fired back before storming off to promote another thread instead. A quick, petty flare-up typical of the forum's off-topic chaos.

Stop trying to buy peoples respect, you are a bellend plz leave.— miLLer

Ok sure well i aint even gonna argue you aint worth it go look at my new thread asshole— Afteryou

None work.— prefeK

Real pic of Tuxified.

A member posts an alleged photo of forum regular 'Tuxified' and the thread instantly derails into roasting, denial, and drama.

A new member, noname232, started a thread claiming to post a real photo of a well-known user known as Tuxified, sparking immediate skepticism, jokes, and low-key insults about his appearance and identity. Staff member Industry questioned the photo's authenticity while ribbing Tuxified anyway, and other regulars like Riley and bobbafett07 jumped in with mixed reactions ranging from indifference to teasing defenses. The thread quickly took on the classic fkn0wned off-topic tone — petty jabs, inside jokes, and general chaos — before a moderator (tKeR) shut it down with a blunt 'Relax kids.'

yes it's real. no joke.— noname232

so? why is that bad? tuxified you need to start working out, you kinda weak looking..sorry but i dont know if i believe its him— Industry

Relax kids.— tKeR

Noob Demands 'Best Hack' and Gets Roasted

A brand-new noob demands the site's best CS 1.6 hack — gets roasted instead of an answer.

A newly-registered member with only 8 posts asks the classic rookie question: which hack on the site has aimbot, wallhack, and 'more additional features.' Veterans immediately clown him for not just scrolling down and searching existing topics, taking bets on whether he's lazy or just can't read. A couple of regulars toss in genuine advice about avoiding VAC-detected hacks, but the thread is mostly ribbing until the OP snaps back defending himself as a non-lazy Brazilian new to the forum. A Supervisor shows up at the end, and the case gets marked 'answered' and closed by staff.

1. you lazy fuck scroll down 2. look in the topics 3. test them 4. Bingo!— jcomp6

$5 on he cant read— jcomp6

I just fucking joined the site, Im brasilian and i learned how to read coming to america... FDP— Vascaino77

What's in a Name? — Username Origins Thread

Where fkn0wned regulars confessed the real (and not-so-original) stories behind their forum names.

A long-running Off-Topic thread on Gametration.com where members shared how they picked their usernames. It devolved into some gentle ribbing when one poster, DCLXVI, revealed his name was a roman-numeral nod to '1337' — and admitted he'd borrowed the idea from another user named Nutter, prompting some sarcastic 'very original' jabs from Olie22 and blackxthink. Light, low-stakes banter typical of the forum's Off-Topic section, spread across multiple pages.

I thought my name up after years of sitting in isolation in my room. Not really, I stole it from Nutter— DCLXVI

very smart FkN idea. and quite original— Olie22

Wow dclXVI Nice name and very original— blackxthink

"My First Time Having Sex" — Thread That Derailed Into a CS Map Showcase

A thread titled about losing your virginity... that somehow turns into people showing off a Counter-Strike map.

Despite the attention-grabbing title, the surviving tail end of this Off-Topic thread on Fkn0wned.com has nothing to do with its subject — it's just a handful of members complimenting a custom map someone was building and sharing an fpsbanana link to check it out. Classic forgotten forum drift: a thread named for shock value that wandered completely off course by page 2. Low post volume, mostly quick one-line replies from regulars.

Looks wicked. Keep up the good work.— MONST3R

Check out my fpsbanana account, I'm about to upload a wicked map.— Marc347

looks cool— y0uran00b

Fraud on eBay: Burn Her House Down

Guy loses $500 on a smuggled iPhone, asks the forum to burn down the scammer's house, gets roasted about his eyeliner instead.

Member sorbazz vents about getting scammed out of $500 buying an unreleased-in-Sweden iPhone off eBay from a seller with 200+ positive feedback who suddenly went on a scamming spree against ~20 buyers. He half-jokingly asks if anyone near LA can burn the scammer's house down, which gets shot down as a bad idea, and the thread quickly derails into a back-and-forth insult match with Afteryou over looks, gender, and being 'emo vs gothic.' Classic early-2010s off-topic chaos: a real grievance thread that dissolves into juvenile flame war within a dozen posts.

anyone who lives in LA and can go and burn this bitchs house down?— sorbazz

Im a Fat Gothic Girl— Afteryou

Arson is bad. You should have been more careful.— Eckos

September Donation Drive

TuxifieD asks fkn0wned's 80,000+ members to open their wallets — for glory, colored names, and maybe some gifts.

A pinned announcement thread from site owner TuxifieD launching a donation drive to fund upgrades for fkn0wned.com. Top donors were promised a special donation-colored username and forum tag, with a vague possibility of extra gifts, plus mention in the weekly newsletter sent to the site's claimed 80,000+ member base. The thread opens with zero donations logged and an early reply from longtime crew member AKULA.

We want to buy some new things for fkn0wned to help it grow and for you all to love it even more.— TuxifieD

WE HAVE NO DONATIONS YET— TuxifieD

Soo, When Did You Join?

A simple 'when did you join' thread turned into an old-timer roll call before a mod shut it down.

A veteran member (joined July 2006) started a casual thread asking longtime users when they first joined the forum, noting he hadn't seen many other 2006-era members around anymore. Only a couple of replies came in before a moderator marked the thread as closed with a simple 'answered.' It's a small, low-key nostalgia thread rather than any drama or event, but it captures that early-veteran-vs-newer-crowd feeling common on forums a year or two into their life.

Curious when u all joined. I havnt seen too many people from 06, i joined on July 8, 2006.— blacknight00

i join on the 19-November 07— benji1

Well. I need your guys help. (the weed/urine test thread)

A forum member's doctor's appointment turned into a community-wide crash course in flushing your system.

A member posting under the handle Seaking asked the General Discussion board for advice on clearing THC from his system before an upcoming doctor's appointment, having smoked shortly before learning about the visit. Fellow members, including regular Sideways and Supervisor mr.N0Nam3, chimed in with the usual mix of joking and half-serious suggestions like chugging huge amounts of water. It's a classic slice of mid-2000s forum culture — off-topic, low-stakes personal drama treated with total sincerity and a little dark comedy.

It involves urine and my mom being pissed off.— Seaking

Drink around 8 gallons of water (serious)— Sideways

Shiftz Announces a Month Away in Sicily

A co-manager goes off-grid for Christmas in Sicily and dares the staff to catch his post count

In this General Discussion thread from November 2007, longtime Fkn0wned co-manager Shiftz announces he'll be offline for about a month while visiting family in Messina, Sicily for Christmas, citing spotty internet access in the area. The post has a warm, personal, low-drama vibe typical of forum life check-ins, with Shiftz sharing travel photos and jokingly challenging fellow members Sonikk, Afteryou, and Laptops to close the gap on his post count while he's gone. It's less about site business and more a slice of everyday community life among the staff.

Anyway Sonikk, Afteryou and Laptops you have a month to get as close as you can to my post count haha.— Shiftz

This is so short notice, although we've been planning it for ages I only got told we are doing it about an hour ago.— Shiftz

BME Pain Olympics Shock Thread

A 2007 thread where someone made the mistake of googling 'BME Pain Olympics' and warning everyone else not to

A classic early-2000s shock-content thread from the General Discussion board, where OP 'pato' brings up the infamous BME Pain Olympics video/images and asks if anyone else has seen it. Replies quickly veer into other extreme-body-mod internet lore (suspension hooks, 4chan references) with reaction images. Typical of the era's forum culture where shock sites and gross-out content got passed around as a rite of passage.

Is so fucken nasty, I almost fucken puked. anyone else no one about it?— pato

Don't know about it but I saw this thing on 4chan once with this girl suspended by hooks IN her back.— Marc347

good hw site?

A 2007 homework-help thread where the cheat scene briefly became a study group.

A member named mr.N0Nam3 asked if anyone knew a good homework help site, and a handful of regulars chimed in with genuinely earnest advice — Google tricks, subject-specific search engines, and offers to personally help with math or university-level physics and chemistry. A small, wholesome detour from the usual gaming and cheat-scene talk typical of Fkn0wned's General Discussion board.

If you ever need maths pm me the stuff and ill have a go at it if you want.— sammo

i find the most hopefully places are university libs. even for younger students. great places.— Kismism

New Steam Update? VAC2 Panic Thread

A routine Steam update drops and the whole cheat forum immediately panics: 'are we detected now?'

A member named laptops notices a Steam/CS:S update installing and asks whether it means VAC2 now flags all hacks, a classic reflex reaction on a cheat-scene forum whenever Valve pushed an update. Admin Malware ('Tuco'- The Ugly) replies to address the concern. The thread captures the recurring low-level anxiety of the era: any Steam patch could mean a wave of bans, so members would rush to the forums for reassurance before touching their loaders again.

hi, i just started up CSS, and it said please hold while we install update, does this mean thet all hacks are now VAC2 detected?. just want to know whats going on. thanks— laptops

Teenager Begs Forum to Flood a Rival Site Over Getting Clowned

A teenager asks a hacking forum to nuke a website because forum drama hurt his feelings.

A member named Wtts asked the community to flood or take down an unrelated website (pwctoday.com) as retaliation for being mocked on that other forum. It's a short, petty request typical of early-2010s (and earlier, this one from 2007) gaming forum drama, with only a single reply from nerfmagez before the thread trails off. A small, almost mundane snapshot of forum beef spilling over into requests for disruptive action.

im part of this forum and everyone on the forum thinks their cool cause their older than me and their being douches, so can anyone fuck the site up for me?— Wtts

Best Torrent Site (2007)

Demonoid got blocked in Canada and the whole forum spiraled into a torrent-site free-for-all.

A casual Off-Topic thread from December 2007 where AKULA asks fellow members for torrent site recommendations after Demonoid became inaccessible from Canada. Replies pour in with the era's staple names — Mininova, TorrentReactor, IPTorrents, The Pirate Bay — plus a shoutout request for an Oink invite, capturing a very 2007 slice of internet life. Mostly good-natured, low-drama chatter typical of the General Discussion board, with staff and regulars alike chiming in with their favorites.

theres not a replacement for demonid... F— Famousss

using Miniova right now, looking for something better though anyone got a oink invite? ^^— banak

iptorrents.com fastest torrents out there— laptops

I Bring You.... (the thread that turned into a slap-fight)

A random 'I bring you...' post spirals into a 1K Club member telling someone to fuck off over a date mix-up.

This is the tail end of a multi-page General Discussion thread on Fkn0wned.com whose original topic has long been buried under bickering. By page 3, member 'haha.1' is furious at 'Paws' over some perceived slight tied to a January post, dropping a profanity-laced rant defending his '1K Club' status. Paws brushes it off, a couple of other members ('.Smurf' and staffer 'laptops') step in to tell everyone to cool it and take it to PMs, and a staff request to close the thread caps things off, followed by one last unrelated troll reply from 'Nur5'. Classic minor forum drama: petty, quickly moderated, and mostly forgotten except as a snapshot of the site's Off-Topic energy.

fuck off paws.. its fucking 4 january.. if u know nothing about me and the post i posted go look at 1k club members.. i learn my mistake u fucking cunt— haha.1

Watch it Haha.1. /Requesting topic to be closed.— laptops

lmfao, janejio worked for me..MWHAHAHHAHAHAHHA.— Nur5

pls help! (VAC-banned newbie asks for a workaround)

A VAC-banned member begs for a workaround that was already dead — cue the pile-on and 'use the search button' chorus.

A brand-new member, slashx, posted a rambling plea (with a running joke about his cat interrupting him) asking how to keep playing Counter-Strike after getting Steam/VAC banned, vaguely recalling an old thread on the topic. Regulars quickly informed him the method he was thinking of had been killed off by a Steam update, and the thread turned into a mild ribbing session about searching the forum instead of making new threads. A classic low-stakes 'noob asks for help, gets told to use search' exchange typical of the General Discussion board.

hi guys, my fkn cat cancelled two times this message walking on the keybord— slashx

yes there was but as steam updated ,now, it cannot...— haha.1

And even if it still works, use teh search buttonz...— [LiP]STicK.

I'm pretty sure this is not suppose to be like this

A forum glitch turned some poor user into a ghost — cue five posts of confused speculation and one glorious conspiracy theory.

A short December 2007 General Discussion thread where banak points out a display bug involving a mangled or blanked-out username/post, prompting a handful of members to react with confusion and mild amusement. Nobody takes it too seriously — Industry dismisses it as 'not a serious problem' and asks if it's already fixed. The thread closes out with Peski-Ruski's tongue-in-cheek theory that a vengeful admin once purged a hated user so thoroughly that even their name got erased from the database.

A probable explantion would be that an admin long ago hated the person who made those posts so much, he started deleting each one of them, when he realized there were just too many to delete he wiped off all the information of the person's account so that nobody would ever remember what the person was called.— Peski-Ruski

3 words...WHAT THE FUCK!?!?— Whats that?...BA... Whats that?...BANG!!

that looks... edited— [LiP]STicK.

Where is the best place to get a free iPod touch or iPhone.

A 2007 classic: can you actually get a free iPhone, or is it all just referral-scam vapor?

A member named l3m0nz asked where to score a free iPod touch or iPhone, kicking off a skeptical back-and-forth about referral/reward sites like Xpango. Regulars weighed in with varying degrees of cynicism, pointing out the hidden costs and endless referral requirements behind 'free' offers, while others cracked jokes about stealing one or just getting a job. Sammo's suggestion to fund it by selling private cheats instead is a small, telling snapshot of the forum's cheat-scene culture bleeding into everyday off-topic chat.

The only free way to get one is to steal one.— Sideways

I got an idea, make some hacks and sell them as pvt hacks.— sammo

The job center.— Riley

Legal Bud Site: Scam or Steal?

A supervisor finds a sketchy 'legal herb' site and the whole Off-Topic board weighs in on whether it's a scam, a headache, or just a reason to grow your own.

In this Off-Topic/General Discussion thread from late November 2007, a Supervisor member posts a link to an online 'legal bud' vendor, marveling at the low prices compared to street rates but noting the site won't take PayPal. Replies range from skepticism about shady shipping practices and 'too good to be true' scam warnings, to a member who claims to have tried a free sample and found it useless, to the classic forum suggestion of just growing your own. A staff member closes out the page with a one-liner. It's a low-stakes, jokey off-topic tangent typical of the board's looser corners, far from the site's cheat-database focus.

Good luck telling a cop it's legal.— Arcade

best way is to grow it,. haha— Us^T

try it > some random dudes word on a forum ill take my chances.— Goodapollo

San Andreas

A one-word thread title, a wholesome derail about flying missions, and a mod side-quest over 'the shit' vs 'that shit'.

A low-effort 'who likes San Andreas' thread in General Discussion that quickly turned into casual reminiscing about GTA: San Andreas — PS2 nostalgia, multiplayer roleplay mods, and someone admitting they quit the game because they couldn't handle the flying missions. A brief nitpicky exchange over grammar ('that shit' vs 'the shit') added some light comic relief before staff eventually closed the thread as spam.

"that shit" or "the shit"? There's a difference, you know..— ZarbonPRO

Since I can't fly in San Andreas, literally, I stopped playing it.— The Moose

TEH F!_!CKING SH!T xD— Whats that?...BA... Whats that?...BANG!!

Keyboard Commands aka Shortcuts

A copy-pasted Windows shortcut list turns into a thread about Alt+F4-ing someone's life

User l3m0nz dumped a giant, straight-off-the-internet list of Windows keyboard shortcuts (Start menu, copy/paste, Explorer navigation, accessibility toggles, Natural Keyboard keys, etc.) into General Discussion. Almost nobody cared about the actual shortcuts — the thread immediately derailed into regulars riffing on using ALT+F4 or SHIFT+DELETE to metaphorically end someone's life, capped off by a slur-laden joke exchange typical of the era's forum culture. A textbook low-effort filler post that became a minor in-joke thread instead of a useful reference.

I would like to be able to Alt + F4 somebody's life lol.— sammo

Ok, put it this way: Ctrl + A then, then Alt + F4. Select all then close their life lol— sammo

i want to Shift+Del someones life. haha— olie22

Evel Knievel died today :(

Fkn0wned pauses the cheat talk for a moment of silence over Evel Knievel.

A short, low-key tribute thread posted the day daredevil Evel Knievel died in November 2007. Goodapollo shared the news with a link to the SI/AP obituary, and a handful of regulars from Media Crew, Supervisor, and 1000 Club ranks dropped brief condolences. Nothing contentious — just a quiet, sincere moment of community reaction on an otherwise gaming-and-cheats focused board.

such a sweet dude, that really sucks.— Goodapollo

aww shit, RIP.— MostWanter

I liked him what a shame, but on his wiki page i think it said he was pretty much in debt.— Sammo

Admin Hacks (mani-admin-mod): The Answer Is Still No

One noob asked if you could fake your SteamID/IP to get free admin — five posts and a mod-lock later, the verdict was final.

A new member on Fkn0wned.Com's General Discussion board asked whether it was possible to spoof or trick the mani-admin-mod plugin (e.g. by faking a SteamID or IP) to gain unearned server admin. Several more established members quickly shut it down, pointing out the exact same question had already been asked and answered days earlier, and mocked the OP for not searching first. A moderator (DCLXVI) closed the thread with a blunt one-line ruling that no such exploit existed 'YET.'

No such thing is possible, YET.— DCLXVI

mebbe he wants to be special...— mr.N0Nam3

you should really search b4 posting since this has been answered b4 and the answer is NO— jacal

"Where is the haxes?" — a classic newbie thread

A brand-new member asks the most basic question imaginable, gets pointed to the database, thread closed in six minutes flat.

A newly registered member with all of 13 posts asked where to find the CS 1.6 cheats on the site, unable to locate the Database section. Two regulars (hunterbrute224 and Goodapollo) politely pointed him to the Cheat Database navigation path, and the thread was closed by a moderator the same day with the tongue-in-cheek reason 'solved for jesus!'. A small, mundane but perfectly preserved slice of everyday forum life — the kind of low-stakes newbie thread every cheat-scene board had dozens of.

where can i find cs 1.6 cheat on this website :b ?— drdre

look under database, click Counter Strike 1.6, there, now you can get Hacks, and scripts and stuff.— hunterbrute224

solved for jesus!— mr.N0Nam3

Call of Duty 4

Members argue over ranks, prestige, and PC vs. console bragging rights in a fresh CoD4 hype thread from '07.

A November 2007 General Discussion thread where WillowZ, freshly back online after a computer crash, gushes about picking up Call of Duty 4 and hitting rank 52. The thread turns into a casual back-and-forth about ranks, prestige mode, platform preference (360 vs PS3 vs PC), and the usual CS:S loyalists dismissing CoD4 entirely. Light, friendly banter typical of the era, with some good-natured ribbing over WillowZ's erratic capitalization.

Whats with all your random capital letters. Rofl— Shifty.

It's got nothing on CSS. No game does.— bobbafett07

Stop playing the 360 Move to the PC =] the grap...— jcomp6

New Member Asks How to Add a Signature Image

A new guy just wanted to know how to put a pic in his sig — chaos, kindness, and one random confession about a browser game ensued.

A low-stakes General Discussion thread from November 2007 where member CoryZ sheepishly asked how to add an image to his forum signature. A couple of regulars and staff (Arcade, Industry) patiently explained BBcode and image hosting, keeping the tone light and self-deprecating. A one-post member, supercan, derailed briefly with an unrelated aside about a browser game, and Supervisor-rank member HaSh dropped in near the end. Classic filler-thread vibe: minor question, quick helpful answers, a little forum noise for flavor.

How do i put a pic in my sig? do i need to be a like a pimp or sometin or am i dum Plz helpo— CoryZ

It's called BBcode, used for forums.— Arcade

i know how to use cheat engine to hack in clickclickclick .com— supercan

How to Burn Copy-Protected DVDs (Battlefield 2)

A guy just wants to burn his Battlefield 2 disc, gets the full 2007 forum treatment

A low-key General Discussion thread from November 2007 where member jcomp6 asked how to get around copy protection to burn a backup of Battlefield 2. Replies ranged from genuinely helpful (decrypting the disc and using DVD Shrink) to the usual forum snark and jokes about torrents and sharing a friend's Alcohol 120% install. Nothing dramatic here, just a snapshot of everyday early-2010s (well, late-2007) forum life at fkn0wned — casual disc-burning help mixed with off-topic banter.

just wondering if someone to let me know how i could burn a game BattleField 2 but its copy writed could you let me know how to get round this— jcomp6

well it wud of been done by now lol— pyeman

Just decrypt it, then use dvd shrink to put it on disk.— Sammo

Dear Fkn Community (And Industry...hoe) — Traitor's Farewell-For-a-Few-Days Post

Member's PC dies, announces a two-day 'goodbye' to the forum, community reacts with a collective shrug.

A member going by 'Traitor' posted a dramatic-sounding farewell titled after computer troubles, explaining he'd be offline briefly while reformatting his PC and hunting down an old Windows XP disc. The tone was self-aware and joking rather than an actual departure, but the grand title didn't match the mundane reason, prompting a blunt 'so?' from a Supervisor. The thread is a tiny slice of everyday General Discussion chatter typical of the board — low stakes, lots of inside humor, and staff keeping a tight, no-nonsense grip on the section (as seen in the reopening notice from moderator Nerf).

gg windows, you win.— Traitor

so?— NoNamE!

I closed it for a reason it's bullshit, Got a problem with it please PM me I moderate this section and when I close something then it fucking stays closed— Nerf

tournament.com

A member wanted to buy a dead tournament site — the replies were the real punchline

In this February 2008 General Discussion thread, newer member jldrake asked if anyone remembered tournament.com and who built its old tournament-play software, hoping to track down the owners to buy the site. A few regulars, including Sammo and MONST3R, recalled using it back in the day and joked that the platform folded because it 'wouldn't make money.' The thread stayed short and lighthearted, with minitureman and staff member Industry riffing on the idea of a betting-style CS:S site failing to turn a profit.

I used it at the time, until they found out that the business wouldn't make money LOL.— Sammo

Start Tournament.com Run Tournament.com ???????? PROFIT!!— Industry

rofl a betting site for css and they cant make money lolz— minitureman

Quick Question... (Steam/CSS name got changed)

A guy's Steam name mysteriously morphs and the whole board yells 'CHANGE YOUR PASSWORD'

Member 'Wares' noticed his CS:S in-game name had been altered without his knowledge and asked the forum if anyone had ideas why. Regulars quickly diagnosed it as a compromised account, with staff and veterans chiming in with dry jokes and the standard 'change your password (and security question) immediately' advice. It's a small, mundane slice of the forum's daily life — account security paranoia mixed with the community's usual snark.

I would fucking look over my shoulder, probably go to bed. Seriously, I hate that shit! =| Change pass! If you haven't already, then you're retarded..— The Moose

HAHAHAH Somebody's messing with you.— Don Ruski

change the sq too— blacknight00

Is That Really Tux? — Forum Photo Guessing Game

A blurry photo, a guy named Tker, and half the forum arguing about who's actually in the picture.

A throwaway thread from November 2007 where a member posted a photo asking if it was forum regular 'Tux,' sparking a short back-and-forth about whether the image was legit. Several members chimed in with counter-photos and denials, with the consensus landing on 'none of the pictures of Tux are real.' Low-stakes, jokey off-topic chatter typical of the General Discussion board, with a staff member (Don Ruski) even weighing in to settle it.

None of the pictures of Tux are real..— lol

In no way is that Tux lol.— Don Ruski

wonder if hes fat.. or black— asshoel50

Great Virus

A student asks fkn0wned how to nuke his school's computers — and gets called a kiddie scripter for it

A member going by krakowwak opens this Off-Topic thread in late October 2007 asking about self-replicating viruses that fill up a hard drive, specifically wanting one that could work on locked-down school computers with the command prompt disabled. A handful of regulars chime in with the usual half-serious suggestions about batch files and converting them to executables, someone jokes about wiping system32 for fun, and it devolves into some mocking back-and-forth about 'kiddie scripters' versus the 'pros.' It's a pretty typical low-stakes GD thread from the era — mostly bravado and joking rather than anything technically deep.

use punctuation.— -Still Life-

Kiddie Scripters!— Renegade.MB

Yes, we know, explain us how the pro's do it— rnie

The Random Phone Number Prank Thread

A random phone number, a chorus of "I'll call it," and one mod who just wanted the whole thing to die.

A General Discussion thread built around someone posting a random phone number for members to prank call, in classic bored-forum fashion. Members riffed with 867-5309 jokes, pitched the idea of a coordinated prank-calling party over voice chat, and one user (Christobell) called out the pointlessness of posting random numbers when anyone could just Google a phone directory. It ends the way a lot of these threads did — with a staff member demanding it be closed and a note that the number was already dead.

Toby, can you haxor my ex girlfriend? 867-5309 Ask for Jenny— Goodapollo

LOL!!! we should do a phone prank And host it on a website so we can hear that— blackxthink

Someone close this piece of shit thread? Call the guy yourself am i fuck paying to hear some squeeky teenager pick up the phone just to hang up a few seconds later.— Scratch

Cool Pictures Thread

A bored gang of CS:S kids kill a school night posting Crysis screenshots, creepy contortionists, and 'wall hacking' ladies.

A casual off-topic thread in Fkn0wned.com's General Discussion where members shared random images — Crysis screenshots, oddball photos, and eventually some risqué picture posts — mostly to pass time out of boredom, with several posters explicitly noting they were bored or procrastinating on schoolwork/other tasks. Regulars like Shifty (a Co-Manager) and Goodapollo dropped in alongside lower-ranked members, giving it a laid-back, low-stakes community hangout feel typical of early cheat-scene forum culture. By page two the thread had drifted toward comments on posted photos of women, drawing a cheeky remark from a banned member.

POST SOME, I WANNA SEE EPIC PICTURES— hunterbrute224

All the Ladies that are posted on here are pretty damn Amazing o_o Specially the wall hacking one.— sanjuro3456

lol took a while for people to post— hunterbrute224

Im sorry.

An apology thread that turned into a mini-referendum on why the guy apologizing wasn't even to blame.

A short-lived General Discussion thread where a member (Nerf, per the closing note) apparently apologized for something involving another site's staff conduct, prompting quick forgiveness from InzaneHacker and pushback from veteran Don Ruski questioning why an apology was even necessary since the person in question wasn't an admin. The thread was closed by moderator NoNamE! with the blunt reason 'no one cares,' capturing the low-stakes, thin-skinned drama typical of the board's off-topic section. Staff member Industry also chimed in near the close.

Apologie accepted. Thx.— InzaneHacker

Why are you apologizing? He's not even an admin on your site, you can't be responsible for what your staff does. Just gives your site a worse name than it already had.— Don Ruski

no one cares.— NoNamE!

The "How Do I Unhide Stuff" Thread

A brand new noob asks the eternal forum question — and even the leechers agree the reply-to-unlock system is too easy to cheese

A newcomer, leachy94, posts asking how the site's 'hidden content' spoiler system works, unable to find a search function. Regulars explain that replying to a topic reveals the hidden content, which prompts leachy94 to point out this makes leeching trivially easy since anyone can just type 'unhide' as a reply. A veteran member agrees, and moderator DCLXVI closes the thread once the question is resolved with a final clarifying explanation.

1.6 and CSS Gunsounds

A random IM argument about whether CS 1.6 and CSS share gun sounds gets dragged to the forum for a verdict

A member named Renegade.MB posted a pasted chat log between two people (M4RC and Semper) arguing over whether Counter-Strike: Source's weapon and footstep sounds are identical to Counter-Strike 1.6's, spiraling into a petty back-and-forth capped by escalating 'FAIL' spam. Renegade brought the debate to Fkn0wned's General Discussion for the community to weigh in. It's a small, silly slice of mid-2000s off-topic forum culture — low stakes, high snark.

the only difference is graphiccs— Semper

FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIL— Semper

we will ask the people on fkn0wned— M4RC

Why Everyone Was Obsessed with RapidShare Premium (2007)

A guy admits he never got the RapidShare premium hype — and the forum patiently explains why everyone was obsessed with it

A member named minitureman asks a genuinely basic question: why do people pay for RapidShare premium accounts when most stuff isn't hosted there anyway? A few regulars (mystical1, HaSh, Arcade, Wingboy) chime in with explanations about unlimited downloads and warez being split across dozens of RapidShare links. The thread drifts into a friendly side-tangent between minitureman and laptops (of the '1000 Club') about post-count grinding and getting minitureman known on the forum. Low-stakes, wholesome 2007 off-topic chatter typical of the era's file-sharing culture.

Its because most warez are hosted on rapidshare, but all the games have like 30 links or more so instead of waiting 3 hours inbetween each dl you can dl them all at once.— HaSh

remmember on steam, i met you, then i told you to get posting. and then you did, and now your pretty much known— laptops

pay $10 for 1k club, and you get em down there, thanks 2 me!!!!— laptops

"Can Someone Hack This IP For Me?" — Classic Naive Hacking Request

A member asks the forum to hack someone's PC using just an IP — and gets shut down (and mocked) in real time.

A member with an IP address but no real technical know-how asks the General Discussion board how to break into someone's computer without sending a file or keylogging. Another poster jumps in with some vague technical-sounding jargon, then immediately backpedals, refusing to actually do it and joking about avoiding federal prison. The thread drifts into lighthearted mockery, a YouTube tutorial recommendation, and a random telnet aside before fizzling out — a pretty typical 'noob asks for hacks' thread from the era.

Im not going to Federal Prison. k— hunterbrute224

there are tons of video tutorials on hacking...some funny and informative ones on youtube...jus search "thebroken"— pgar23

heard there was a way using telnet— olie22

LoL at this kid

A staffer's forgotten MSN contact panics that he might get 'hacked' — and it's screenshotted for the whole forum to laugh at.

Staff member miLLer posts a copy-pasted MSN Messenger conversation with a random kid who had a wildly decorated display name and turned out to be scared of getting hacked once he realized he was talking to someone from Fkn0wned. The thread is a classic 'lol at this kid' post typical of the era's forum humor, poking fun at the naive user's paranoia and elaborate MSN nickname. It's a short, casual off-topic post rather than any real event, but it captures the site's mocking, in-group banter culture and the MSN/early internet flavor of the time.

who are you?— נσяєℓ

but dont bitch me... i hav to block u homie... coz u might hack me— נσяєℓ

LoL— miLLer

oh shit (the blunt-video-on-Facebook thread)

A friend's mom found the weed video on Facebook, and the whole forum showed up to laugh about it.

A December 2007 General Discussion thread started by supervisor HaSh recounting how a friend got busted after their mom commented on a Facebook video of them smoking. The thread quickly turns into a casual pile-on of jokes, sympathy, and 'milf sensor' one-liners from a mix of regulars and staff. It's a low-stakes, purely social thread capturing the everyday off-topic banter of the community rather than any drama or cheat-scene business.

so now my friend is fucked.— HaSh

way to go nig n0g.— Goodapollo

Eheh, my milf sensor is working up now.— F Exodus

Life Owner :D, o m g!?

A guy who "mite have been alittle high" tries to explain some old ILOVEYOU-style virus myth to a very unimpressed thread

CoryZ opens a rambling, half-baked post about a supposed old virus ('Life Owner') spread via a fake PowerPoint file that attacked Yahoo, MSN, and AOL, admitting upfront he was 'alittle high' while reading about it. The rest of the thread is mostly other members confused or mocking him, concluding he's 'still stoned.' It closes with a latecomer noting the virus story was old news (recalling a chain email about it years prior) before a moderator shuts the thread down as simply 'stupid.'

i mite have been alittle high, but i knew what i was talking about.— CoryZ

i think he's still stoned— jcomp6

It was a badass virus, but it is no more. R.I.P uber virus.— Seaking

DimeBag Darrel

A bored forum member googles a signature line and drops the full, grim story of Dimebag Darrell's onstage murder

Started when user 'DimeBag Darrel' saw the name in someone's forum signature, googled it, and pasted a detailed account of the 2004 onstage shooting death of Pantera/Damageplan guitarist Dimebag Darrell Abbott. A handful of members reacted with mild surprise, RIP messages, and one dry 'lol you're so bored' comment. It's a quiet, low-drama thread typical of the Off-Topic/General Discussion board — random real-world trivia shared and briefly discussed among regulars and staff.

i was looking at lipsticks sig and went and googled it just goes to show you that you never know when you will die...— DimeBag Darrel

Lol you are so very bored, but interesting article, nevertheless very random.— Peski-Ruski

Dimebag had alot of enemies.. Rip D.B.D.— Royalz

Banned people? - a member asks how forum bans actually work

Newbie asks 'what happens when you get banned?' and immediately gets roasted for asking

A short, mundane thread in the General Discussion section where member Rock Superstar asks basic questions about how forum bans work on Fkn0wned.com - whether banned users can still log in, PM, or post. Other members, including staff member Bucketface, quickly answer (bans lock you out entirely) while mocking the question as a dumb topic. The thread was closed by moderator PaRaNoID the next day marked 'answered', a small but characteristic snapshot of the forum's blunt, joke-heavy moderation culture.

If you get banned, then you are not able to log into your account at all.— mystical1

You get banned for cloging up the general discussion section with incredably dumb topics.— Bucketface

WTF wow why would you even ask this lol— Afteryou

What's Your Mobile Number Add Up To?

A random digit-sum game from Christmas week 2007, and half the thread is just people laughing at how sketchy the title sounded.

A throwaway numerology-style time-killer thread posted two days before Christmas 2007: add up the digits of your mobile number and see who gets the highest total. Members played along with quick one-line replies, and a running joke formed about how the thread title ('what's your mobile/cell number') looked dodgy or scammy sitting in the forum index before people clicked in and realized it was harmless fun. A mix of regular members and at least one staffer (mr.N0Nam3) and a Co-Manager (Shifty) dropped in, giving it that laid-back, low-stakes Off-Topic vibe typical of the General Discussion board.

lol i saw this thread out in the index an it said "Whats your mobile/cell number" and i was like LOL but really.— mr.N0Nam3

yer i saw that too after i posted it and thought, "shit!" lol it looked a bot dodgy but hey ho— Famousss

Is this weird or lame to collect. (energy drink cans)

One guy's 23-can energy drink collection featuring the legendary 'Communist Russian Monster' can

A Fkn0wned member named Jerry_Seinfeld asks the General Discussion board whether collecting energy drink cans is weird, spotlighting a prized find he dubbed the 'Communist Russian Monster' can with a hammer-and-sickle design. A few members chime in supportively, one asking where to find the can, another bringing up a knockoff Red Bull tangent, and the thread drifts into casual chat about energy drinks and bootleg brands. It's a small, low-stakes slice-of-life thread typical of the forum's off-topic side — mundane hobby talk rather than cheat-scene drama.

It's made by monster and its energy drink with a splash of Java, it's quite good.— Jerry_Seinfeld

ppl collect things WAAAAY weird-er than that bro..I think its kinda cool.— UserID_7588

isn't there a fake redbull called like columbian or something?— Marc347

WillowZ's Call of Duty 4 Frag Video

A CoD4 frag montage gets a 9/10 — but everyone begs him to lose the music.

In late November 2007, member WillowZ shared a self-made Call of Duty 4 gameplay/frag video via YouTube, apologizing for quality loss from compression. A handful of regulars weighed in with quick praise, calling it one of the better frag videos they'd seen, while several members pushed back specifically on his choice of background music, asking for a cleaner cut with just game sound for the follow-up. It's a small, friendly slice of the community's video-sharing culture rather than any major event.

nicely done. one of the better Youtube frag videos i've seen.— integrity09

Don't do the second one with music please..— The Moose

lol do music or the sounds of the game— minitureman

Avatar-WAR

A guy asks whose forum avatar reigns supreme, and it spirals into three days of low-grade flaming, ego bruising, and a Shifty. cameo.

Started by member 'mad tag' on Nov 6, 2007 as a lighthearted 'whose avatar is best' contest, the thread quickly derailed into bickering over custom vs. default avatars, some digs at post-count/donator status ('1K club'), and a running side-spat between mad tag and Industry that dragged in Shifty., laptops, Peski-Ruski and others. It limped along for a week with people occasionally posting new avatars (asshoel50's got singled out as a favorite) while others openly mocked how far off-topic and downhill the thread had gone. Classic filler-thread energy: no real drama payoff, just a snapshot of forum banter and pecking order over cosmetic clout.

Suck my white cock Laptops.— Shifty.

pshhh, this thread has only gone downhill— Industry

Roflmao this thread is hilarious— prefeK
