Shock Video Thread: 'Some Crazy People'

A shock-video link drops in Links/Humor and half the board loses their lunch — literally, in one case.

A short Links/Humor thread on Fkn0wned.com where user blackxthink posted a link to some disturbing/graphic video, prompting a string of shocked, disgusted, and darkly amused one-liner reactions from other members. The tone is classic mid-2000s forum shock-content posting: quick reactions, dead memes, Xfire handles in signatures, no real discussion beyond collective 'wtf.' One poster admits to watching it while eating and immediately regretting it.

Seriously they are retarded Omg Click here— blackxthink

mm, cutting yourself, thats always fun.— Legit_Hacks

shes sick in the head. EDIT: fuck i was eating while watching it too— olie22

ROFL! - a rickroll thread on New Year's Day

InzaneHacker dropped a tinyurl on New Year's Day 2008 and the whole board fell for the rickroll.

A short, low-stakes Off-Topic/Links-Humor thread from January 1, 2008, kicked off when InzaneHacker posted a disguised link that turned out to be a Rickroll. Members reacted with the usual mix of laughing, complaining it wasn't funny or was reposted, and joking about crashing their browsers trying to escape it. Nothing dramatic — just a slice of everyday forum banter to start the new year.

lolol you dickface! i just got rickrolled— Industry

not funny but just annoying imo .. and someone else posted that one earlier— goofu

grrr I had to restart my firefox— LoRd Ragealot

13 Year Old Tries To Steal Steam Account

A kid tried to scam a Steam account, got wrecked so hard he cried to his school counselor.

A thread in the Links/Humor sub-board sharing an old, widely-circulated story (originally posted to Digg) about a 13 year old who attempted to steal someone's Steam account and got humiliated in the process, reportedly ending in him crying at school. The OP hid the post to keep the thread bumped, which drew mild admonishment from staff, and the rest of the thread is mostly members asking to 'unhide' the content and reacting with laughter, calling it an old but still funny classic.

go mow some yards, bitch— miLLer

The 13 year old started crying in school and he told the counselor that someone stole his Steam account.— orangespwnz

Wow, dont put stuff on hide so the thread stays alive... Dont do it again it's gay =/.— Nerf

Xfire rando spams 'bashed by lebs'

Some random 15-year-old xfire warrior spams a member with 'bashed by lebs' for like 100 lines straight, and it gets archived forever.

A member posts a copy-pasted Xfire chat log (credited as 'stolen from DCXVI') showing a random stranger, going by GeneralSmith-CM, spamming another user (DonuT^) with an absurdly repetitive taunt about being 'bashed by lebs.' The exchange spirals into juvenile trash talk, mock-concern about self-harm, and racism accusations before fizzling out. Replies are short and jokey, with other members chiming in about getting similarly spammed by other randoms on Xfire, treating the whole thing as harmless forum comedy rather than real conflict.

bashed by lebs— GeneralSmith-CM

notice how my cbf factor is at 100% right now ?— DonuT^

Does posting this make you feel like you are special? I get spam bombed all the time....— hunterbrute224

247Vent - Prank Ventrilo Server Thread

500-slot prank Ventrilo comes back from the dead, and fkn0wned shows up to gawk at the drama

A member advertises the relaunch of 247Vent, a large entertainment-focused Ventrilo server known for prank calls and live pranks on unsuspecting listeners. Replies range from nostalgic excitement from old-timers who remembered the community, to basic connection help, to a griping detour about the server's admins being trigger-happy with bans. By the end of the month a couple of posters check back in to see if the server's still active and get vouched for by a longtime listener.

They are known for hilarious pranks, and prank live!— Rebelz

The admins are assholes They ban kids for stupid reasons— waLLa

I've been listing for about two years now and they are extremely cool people.— Nerf

guy just lost his ability to breed

A viral break.com fail clip turns into a two-week pile-on of 'fkn0wned' jokes at some poor guy's expense.

Member Paws shared a link to a break.com video of a guy badly wiping out and hurting himself, launching a short-lived but steady stream of replies riffing on the injury for comedic effect. The thread ran from late November into early December 2007, mostly one-liner reactions cracking up over the fall, with a brief bit of drama when banak got called out for double-posting/spamming and clapped back sarcastically. Classic low-effort, high-turnout Links/Humor thread typical of the board's off-topic culture.

He breaks his arm ,and cracks his balls. Core Duo .— Paws

wow he got fkn0wned by a rail hahahahaha poor bast...— olie22

Hey, dude no need to spam— banak

Railgun Video Thread — Links/Humor

Someone posts a Navy railgun clip and the forum nerds out about physics for a page.

A member shares a YouTube video of an experimental electromagnetic railgun, admitting he went from mocking it to being genuinely impressed. A short back-and-forth follows about why the tech can't be miniaturized into a handheld weapon (heat, materials, projectile speeds beyond the speed of sound), with a couple of regulars dropping quick one-line reactions. Low-key, casual Off-Topic filler thread typical of Gametration's Links/Humor subforum.

This is amazing. At first I was like these guys are a bunch of nerds, but at the end I was awed.— egawge

that was cool but it be cooler if it was like a hand held gun— mako_x23

Perfect aim , its nice— blackxthink

The Worst Kung Fu Movie Auditions EVER!

A 2007 YouTube link that had the whole Links/Humor board in tears laughing at some truly abysmal kung fu auditions.

A quick, throwaway Links/Humor post from minitureman sharing a YouTube video of terrible kung fu movie audition footage. It pulled in a steady trickle of one-line replies over about a week, mostly members just cracking up ('ROFL', 'lol') and one guy dropping a related video link of his own. Nothing dramatic — just a classic low-effort, high-laughs forum humor thread typical of the era.

ROFLMAO I CREAMED MYSELF WATCHING THIS.— [LiP]STicK.

lol he got fkn kungfu ownd— asshoel50

R O F L M A O— prefeK

Kat Williams Weed

A 2007 YouTube clip of comedian Katt Williams talking weed had half the forum in stitches — and one guy who just didn't get it.

WillowZ dropped a link to a Katt Williams stand-up clip about weed in the Links/Humor subforum, sparking a quick chain of replies mostly agreeing it was hilarious. banak was the lone dissenter claiming it wasn't funny, which drew a bit of ribbing from HaSh about not smoking weed or having a sense of humor. A handful of regulars piled on with quick 'lol'd' style approval before the thread petered out — a classic low-stakes off-topic filler thread.

Weed isnt a drug, its just a plant, and when you light it on fire, theres some effects— HaSh

Cause you dont smoke weed and dont have a sense of humour.— HaSh

I lol'd at his haircut alone.— bobbafett07

Guy Takes On 4+ And Wins (viral fight video)

Someone drops a link to a guy flattening a mob of four — the thread that just wanted to say 'lol owned'

A quick Off-Topic/Links-Humor thread from 2007 where member laptops shares a tooshocking.com clip of a guy fighting off multiple attackers and winning. The replies are the usual low-effort forum banter: people saying it's funny, arguing about the ethnicity of the guys in the video, and someone noting a related Mike Vallely fight clip. Nothing dramatic, just classic early-2010s (well, 2007-era) forum link-sharing culture at Fkn0wned.

wow he straight dropped those guys. the mike vallely fight is pretty good too.— Eckos

Fucking owned lol. They were all... Indians.— [LiP]STicK.

Nop, i know how to speak indian, and they werent speaking indian lol :S— laptops

The fkn Rank on internet!

A screenshot of a random toolbar's site-rank turns into a forum-wide 'lol you got spyware' pile-on.

blackxthink posted a screenshot showing Fkn0wned's ranking (apparently pulled from a Megaupload toolbar) and hyped it as a good rank. Confused members chimed in, several jokingly accusing him of having spyware, while others genuinely didn't understand what the screenshot was showing or whether the number was even real. It's a classic low-stakes Off-Topic thread: a mundane bragging post that spirals into ribbing and confusion rather than any real discussion.

Lol you got spyware— havok123

Its the Megaupload toolbar— blackxthink

that can't be real can it— Uncensor3d

MIC SPAM FTW!

One guy blasted a CS 1.6 server with mic spam, took a screenshot after everyone rage-quit, and posted it like a trophy.

A short, low-effort Links/Humor thread where member c0rpsegrinder posted a Photobucket screenshot claiming a round of in-game mic spam had made 'everyone mad' and emptied the server. Replies were skeptical, with waLLa pointing out the screenshot showed no one actually in the server, and c0rpsegrinder insisting people had rage-quit before he could capture it. It ends with a jab at c0rpsegrinder's in-game score, a classic bit of forum ribbing typical of the site's off-topic banter.

everyone got mad =]— c0rpsegrinder

Theres no one in there— waLLa

Your score is bad. Now I know why you come to fkn0...— bobbafett07

Trippy Trip Trip - the spinning silhouette GIF thread

Which way is she spinning? This 2007 optical illusion GIF had half the forum arguing with their own eyes.

Renegade.MB posted a well-known spinning silhouette optical illusion GIF in the Links/Humor section, musing about how perception of its rotation direction seemed to change depending on how you looked at it. The thread turned into a casual back-and-forth with members reporting whether they saw it spin one way, both ways, or not spin correctly at all, with a bit of skepticism thrown in that the image itself was secretly changing. Low-stakes, good-natured off-topic filler typical of the Links/Humor board.

Your mind really controls the whole thing.— Renegade.MB

i dont believe that...i think it changes on its own— bearsfan300

I only see it spinning one way;\.— trance144

"Time Traveler, WITH PROOF" — the viral YouTube clip thread

A guy posted a shaky 'time traveler' YouTube video and swore it wasn't fake — the forum wasn't buying it.

A short, quintessentially 2008 Links/Humor thread where hunterbrute224 shared a YouTube video claiming to show a real time traveler who looked identical to his younger self. nullvoid quickly shot it down as an obvious hoax, and hunterbrute224 backpedaled, insisting he wasn't gullible, just curious. A tiny, three-post exchange capturing the era's viral video credulity and forum snark.

I am not sure if it is real, but the guy looks exactly like his younger self.— hunterbrute224

people are so gullible lol— nullvoid

I am not gullible, it was just interesting to see.....— hunterbrute224

Noob Begs for Wallhacks, Gets Mocked

A brand-new member begs 'can some1 send me some wallhacks?' — and the whole forum piles on to mock him.

A one-post-count newcomer named evrung asked the forum to just hand him wallhacks for CS 1.6, ignoring the site's existing cheat database. The request was widely ridiculed as classic noob behavior, with member after member chiming in with 'LOL', 'HAHAHA', and jabs about using the database instead of begging in Off-Topic. A couple of posters (including a banned member) dropped sketchy external links and fake-sounding cheat instructions, poking fun at the situation rather than genuinely helping. The thread is a small, dated snapshot of forum culture: low effort request, instant public mockery, database elitism.

Can some1 send me some wallhacks ?— evrung

HAHAHAHA ~ POST CLOSED ~— ynaggo

omg jsut use database is there something wrong with people?— xdan38x

Amazing slow-motion! (Links/Humor, Dec 2007)

A guy shares a slow-mo video, someone races to be 'first reply,' and gets called out for it — peak 2007 forum energy.

A short-lived Links/Humor thread from December 2007 where banak posted a slow-motion YouTube video for others to enjoy. A minor spat breaks out over someone bragging about getting the 'first reply,' which another member mocks. A couple regulars chime in with their own slow-mo clip and general approval, and the thread fizzles out after a handful of low-effort 'nice' posts over the following days.

first reply, thanks for sharing! the balloon pooping was awesome@— MostWanter

Lol, who cares about who gets 1st reply, go on youtube and say something like that.— that 1 dude

cool + heres one that dosnt pop— snipedbyhax

Off-Topic Religion Derail: Anti-Islam Link Sparks Amateur Theology Debate

A snarky link-share about an anti-Islam activist spirals into a full-blown religion debate in the Links/Humor forum.

A thread started in the Links/Humor board sharing a link to Victor Vancier (Chaim Ben Pesach), founder of the Jewish Task Force, framed by the OP as mockable propaganda. The comments section quickly derailed from the original joke into a lengthy back-and-forth about Islam, forced conversions, extremism, and religion in general, with several members trading historical claims and counter-claims. It wraps up with a couple of posters just shrugging the whole thing off with 'fuck religion, atheist FTW' energy. Fairly typical of the era's Off-Topic boards where a lowbrow link could turn into an amateur theology debate.

fuck religion Atheist FTW— jcomp6

Religion kind of fails imo. Santa ftw.— The Moose

this fucking noobs who claim to be muslim are distroying the reputation of a muslim— haha.1

Why PS3 Sucks (Console Wars Shitposting)

Someone dropped a shaky console-wars YouTube link and the whole thread got stuck on why the guy was filming from a bathtub

A short 2007 Off-Topic/Links-Humor thread where user asshoel50 posted a trio of joke YouTube videos mocking the PS3, Wii, and Xbox 360. The replies mostly ignored the actual console debate and instead fixated on the absurdity of the video itself, particularly a guy apparently filming in a bathtub/shower. Classic low-stakes forum shitposting with a handful of one-liners and no real resolution.

wtf...y is he in a tub?— bearsfan300

Why is he taking a shower at the same time in all the clips?? It doesnt make any sense to me.— Lucke

I don't need a video to tell me the PS3 is bad.— bobbafett07

Airforce One Gets Tagged

A guerrilla graffiti stunt on Air Force One splits the forum between 'holy shit' and 'that's fake'

blackxthink posted a YouTube link claiming to show artist Marc Ecko's famous 2007 stunt of tagging Air Force One with graffiti. Replies split between amazement at the boldness of the act and skepticism that it was staged or fake, with one member pointing to the tag's promotional website as evidence it was real. A couple of Supervisors chimed in near the end, one calling it 'fucking real' and praising the artist's public statements.

HOLY SHIT.. That's daring.— The Moose

its fake— pyeman

Fucking real, love the guy's speeches.— Don Ruski

Who Wants Free Games?

A 2008 tip about a Steam/Nvidia promo turns into a casual joke about pirating Portal

In January 2008, a member named hunterbrute224 shared a link to a Steam/Nvidia promotion, noting Steam and ATI were having compatibility issues at the time. The thread quickly drifted from thanks-for-the-freebie replies into lighthearted banter when hunterbrute224 mentioned that extracting the Portal demo fully could get you the full game for free, prompting jokes from other members comparing it to phishing or bank robbery. It's a short, breezy Off-Topic thread typical of the forum's casual link-sharing culture, with a handful of regulars chiming in briefly.

id just phish the full portal from someone with the orange box— blacknight00

Gosh i'm low on money. OH, i think i'll just rob a bank.— Goodapollo

LOL this is easier then Phishing and a lot safer— hunterbrute224

TF2 Over 9000 Meme Thread

The day 'It's Over 9000!!!' meme talk hit the Fkn0wned Links/Humor board, DBZ face-posing and all.

A short, low-stakes Links/Humor thread from December 2007 where hunterbrute224 posts a YouTube video referencing the 'It's Over 9000' meme, sparking a brief back-and-forth about its Dragon Ball Z origins and its spread via 4chan. Other members chime in with quick laughs and meme appreciation, including a nod to the era's 'face posing' trend. It's a small, dated snapshot of mid-2000s internet meme culture as it filtered through a gaming/cheat forum's off-topic section.

A MEME DERIVED FROM THIS SHOT FROM DBZ, PEOPLE MAKE IT FOR MANY THINGS, SUCH AT OMG LOOK AT THAT CAR, HOW MUCH IS IT THEN SOMEONE SCREAMS ITS OVER 9000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol its a 4chan thing— hunterbrute224

lol i laugh at his face.. pretty funny.. "over 9000??!!?!?

rifk, <3 4chan memes. TF2 + 9000 = epic win— zarmanin

WoW-forums are gud

A screenshot of a dead WoW player's inventory turns a whole thread into a running gag about loot drops.

A short Links/Humor thread from December 2007 where user Bradders posted a WoW forums screenshot ('I lol'd') that got a steady trickle of replies from regulars riffing on it, particularly a low-level character's comment on the death. It's a small, low-stakes slice of forum life rather than any drama — just members trading one-liners and laughing along over a few days. Reflects Gametration's off-topic humor culture around 2007, when Counter-Strike cheat scene and general gaming banter shared space with random meme posts.

I lol'd— Bradders

Lol @ the level one's comment. How WoW is that...— -Shikari-

he passed away sucide? like serenity? anyway...— jcomp6

OWNAGE gifs thread

Just a January 2008 night of Photobucket-hosted 'ownage' gifs and a pigeon debate that never really ends

A classic low-effort/high-fun Off-Topic humor thread where LoRd Ragealot dumps a batch of 'ownage' reaction gifs (blue screens, facepalms, spartan kicks) hosted on old Photobucket albums, and regulars pile on with their own gif collections and quick reactions. It's pure filler-content nostalgia bait typical of mid-2000s forums — no drama, just members laughing, bumping the thread months later, and debating which gif was the best. A small slice of the site's Off-Topic > Links/Humor culture where CS:S/CS 1.6 players hung out between cheat discussions.

ROFL the pingeon one is better— DarkSoulSwiper

BUMP because i found my favorite one.— Goodapollo

I lold really hard at a few....— hunterbrute224

Watch This 100% Classic

A random 'classic' video link spirals into a nut-squishing insult war on page 3.

A Links/Humor thread sharing a video someone deemed '100% classic' ran long enough to hit a third page, by which point the actual link had been buried under bickering. havok123 fired off a crude insult defending the post, Don Ruski (a well-known veteran member, 'FkN Godfather') co-signed it approvingly, and banned member Keskin^ lingered nearby with a hostile signature line. Classic low-stakes forum sniping typical of the Off-Topic section.

Odds are, you are a 16 year old cunt getting his nuts squished. If you can do better, lets see.— havok123

Couldn't have said it better.— Don Ruski

I don't like yuo!— Keskin^

Jeff Hardy

A YouTube wrestling clip and an instant 'it's fake you moran' takedown

A member posted a Jeff Hardy highlight video with unabashed enthusiasm, only to get immediately clowned by a Supervisor who dismissed pro wrestling as fake and boring. A GFX staffer chimed in right after, suggesting the thread was heading into typical off-topic ribbing rather than genuine discussion. Classic low-stakes Links/Humor fare: someone shares something they love, the forum pushes back hard for laughs.

Jeff Hardy fKn pwnz!— ZarbonPRO

Wow, you like wresting? It's fake you moran. It's not even entertaining...— Bucketface

Crysis Barrel Physics YouTube Link (Links/Humor)

Someone dropped a Crysis physics video in 2007 and the crew spent two pages losing their minds over stacked barrels.

A low-key Off-Topic thread from late 2007/early 2008 where longtime poster LoRd Ragealot shared a YouTube clip showing Crysis's Sandbox 2 engine physics — barrels piling up and a satisfying explosion. Other members, including a Toronto CoD4 player and site staff, chimed in marveling at the graphics, joking about needing better hardware, and asking how the barrel stacking was even done. It's a small, cozy time capsule of the site under its earlier name (Gametration.com, later rebranded Fkn0wned.com) and its old forum hierarchy of cheat databases and off-topic banter.

at the end, the explosion, is so fkn cool— LoRd Ragealot

youd be amazed... you will SHIT BRIX, its AMAZING— Anexxion

CATZ - Funny Cats Thread

A 2007 cat-video thread that somehow peaked with 'invisible bike' and Pokemans jokes

A lighthearted Off-Topic post from bragamuffin sharing a funny cat video link, which turned into a small round of members swapping cat humor and links (including a shoutout to roflcats.com). The thread is short and low-stakes, mostly forum regulars riffing on early YouTube-era meme culture like the 'invisible bike' clip. Nothing dramatic happened here — just a snapshot of casual downtime chatter typical of the Links/Humor subforum.

pictures wit cats r the funniest things ever— mako_x23

Lol, The invisible bike and the 'let me show you my Pokemans' were the best. haha.— ♠P@7R1K♠

That Human Tetris Japanese Game Show Clip

A member drops the infamous human-Tetris Japanese gameshow clip and the whole thread just laughs at 3:50.

A quick, low-effort Links/Humor post from December 2007 sharing a YouTube link to a Japanese game show segment featuring 'human tetris.' The replies are short and lighthearted, with several regulars piling on to say it's funny, especially one moment around the 3:50 mark that gets quoted twice. Nothing dramatic — just a classic slice of forum downtime between the cheat-scene talk.

LOL @ 3:50.— The Moose

3..50 OWNS!1 LOL— haha.1

Stupid fucking pastor

HaSh drops a Break.com link and the Links/Humor crowd finds their new favorite villain.

A short 2007 Links/Humor thread where supervisor HaSh shared a viral video/link about a controversial pastor, calling him 'an old asshole.' Media Crew member Goodapollo replied with a much more personal, heated rant, revealing the pastor's church operated near his hometown and that he'd followed the guy's antics locally and nationally for years. It's a small snapshot of the board's off-topic culture: quick reaction posts, dark humor, and members occasionally getting genuinely worked up over outside-world news.

what an old asshole.— HaSh

he is honestly one of the few people i would just blatantly walk into a crowd and shoot in the face. i have such a passionate hatred for him. but you knowwww. hate breeds hate— Goodapollo

Potato Gun

Someone got 'fkn0wned' by a potato gun, and the physics lecture followed.

A quick throwaway thread in the Links/Humor section where Keskin^ posted a video link of someone getting hurt by a potato gun, using the site's signature 'fkn0wned' catchphrase. banak replied with a deadpan physics explanation about recoil and equal-and-opposite reactions before laughing it off. A small, low-stakes bit of forum humor typical of the Off-Topic board's link-dump culture.

He got fkn0wned with Potato Gun.— Keskin^

Simple physics, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.— banak

Revenge is Sweet: Viral Spin-Kick Video Thread

A 2007 video link thread where one spin kick united the whole Off-Topic crowd

A quick Off-Topic/Links-Humor post from October 2007 where member ZarbonPRO shared a link to a viral clip (hosted on nothingtoxic.com) showing someone getting a violent comeuppance. The thread is short and casual, just a handful of members reacting to the video, joking about the 'spin kick' and wishing for subtitles. Typical low-effort, high-nostalgia forum filler from the site's Links/Humor section.

Wow, that spin kick was fucking deadly.— orangespwnz

there should hav been sub titles,would hav loved to knowen what they wer saying lol— Famousss

Gamer Gets Owned

A funny video clip thread that ran two pages deep, mostly laughs and one-liners.

This was a lighthearted Links/Humor thread on Fkn0wned.Com sharing a 'gamer gets owned' video/clip for the community's amusement. By page two the discussion had trailed off into short reactions like 'staged' and 'LMAO!!!!' rather than any real debate. It's a small, unremarkable but charmingly typical slice of the forum's off-topic humor culture from late 2007.

staged— that 1 dude

LMAO!!!!— Killz0rzz

The "New" 2 Girls 1 Cup Thread

A 2007 shock-link callback thread that's basically a time capsule of internet gross-out humor's golden age.

A short-lived Off-Topic/Links-Humor thread from December 2007 where a member (posting under a Banned account) shared follow-up shock-site links riffing on the infamous '2 Girls 1 Cup' viral video, referencing related spinoff links some members had apparently been hunting for in another thread. It's a quick, low-effort post typical of the shock-link/prank-link genre popular on gaming forums in the mid-to-late 2000s, capped off by a self-deprecating typo correction. Only one reply followed, a brief joking remark before the thread went quiet.

Edit : I just noticed I spelled chicks wrong. Oh well, I'm retarded.— Seaking

lol just pwnt somebody heh heh— olie22

A way to watch TV shows/Movies free

2008's version of cord-cutting: some guy discovers Hulu 'in beta' and the thread immediately turns to torrents

A member shares Hulu, newly in beta at the time, as a way to stream TV shows and movies for free, noting the limited movie selection but good quality. Another member almost immediately counters with a torrent site link instead, boasting about grabbing a batch of stuff from it. Classic low-key Off-Topic filler thread from the Links/Humor section, more of a quick tip-share than a real discussion.

I found a website thats in beta http://www.hulu.com/ allows you to watch movies and Tv shows free from there website.— Jerry_Seinfeld

Or torrents. Look I got 1-9 from there. xD haha.— Marc347

Don't Hide Your Links (Mod PSA in Links/Humor)

A one-post mod rant that shut down a whole thread over bump-farming etiquette.

A short, blunt moderator post in the Links/Humor subforum calling out members for hiding or obscuring their posted links just to keep their own threads bumped up the list. The poster, Exodus, a well-established '1K Club' member, framed it as a community courtesy issue — give other threads a fair shot instead of gaming visibility. The thread was closed by Exodus himself the same year it was archived, suggesting it served as more of a standing rule announcement than an ongoing discussion.

Many people hide their links to other websites to keep their stuff bumped.— Exodus

So remember kids, don't fucking hide your links. That is all.— Exodus

Post your funny signs!

A 2007 image-dump thread where one member kicked things off with a real 'illegal software' rule screenshot from Microsoft.

Started by member ri0t in the Links/Humor sub-forum, this thread invited people to post genuinely funny signs — real-life photos or internet screenshots — with strict no-photoshop, no-repost, no-bump rules. The opener shared a screenshot poking fun at oddly-worded Microsoft software rules. It's a classic low-stakes, time-killing off-topic thread typical of mid-2000s gaming forums.

Post your funny signs! Funniest ones i find will be put in this post.— ri0t

Thats what it actualy says on the MS rules.— ri0t

ITS A TRAP seriously (car commercial edition)

A banned Toyota ad, a wall of lulz, and an Admiral Ackbar joke born before it was a meme

A short, cheerful Links/Humor thread from December 2007 where hunterbrute224 shares a YouTube link to a (apparently banned) car commercial he found funny. A handful of regulars chime in with quick reactions ranging from mild laughs to confusion over why the ad was pulled, and someone jokes about redubbing the clip with Admiral Ackbar's famous 'It's a trap!' line — giving the thread its title. It's a low-stakes, of-its-era slice of forum culture: quick posts, xfire handles in signatures, and casual banned-content curiosity.

LOL Someone needs to redub it with Admiral Ackbar— hunterbrute224

lmao why do all the funny ads get banned?— dainbramaged

Links/Humour Forum Rules

The fine print that kept the meme dumps from descending into total chaos.

A staff-posted rules sticky for the Links/Humor subforum under Off-Topic, laid down by moderator PaRaNoID (aka SyKoTiK HaCkEr) back in June 2007. It set basic housekeeping: one thread per person per 12 hours, no flaming, no thread hijacking, and no unauthorized advertising, with warnings and bans as the enforcement path. A small but telling artifact of how the site's mods tried to keep the humor/links section tidy amid the usual forum chaos.

We Moderate Your Fun!

One thread per person in the time period of 12 hours.— PaRaNoID

Google Tweaks and Easter Eggs

A 2007 bookmarklet prank that made every image on a page spin around the screen — except FkN's own site.

A short Links/Humor thread from December 2007 where Don Ruski shares a browser trick (a JavaScript bookmarklet) that animates and scatters images on a webpage for laughs, noting wryly that it worked everywhere but on Fkn0wned itself. Industry chimes in right after. It's a small, typical piece of mid-2000s internet fun-sharing — the kind of harmless novelty script people passed around forums before things like this became common knowledge.

lol it works on every site except of FkN.— Don Ruski

The '2 Guys 1 Cup' Shock Link Prank

The classic 2007 shock-link prank, immortalized forever in the Links/Humor graveyard.

A short, of-its-time Off-Topic post from December 2007 where a member named Blaqk dropped a link to the infamous '2 Guys 1 Cup' viral video under the guise of 'rofl,' baiting unsuspecting clickers. PaRaNoID chimed in shortly after, though the reply itself doesn't reveal much beyond forum presence. It's a tiny, dusty artifact of the era's link-prank culture that once thrived across gaming forums like Gametration.

rofl— Blaqk

THIS IS SPARTA! VESTI REMIX!

A guy shares a 'Sparta remix' meme video and gets called out for double-posting the same joke twice

A short, low-stakes Links/Humor thread from November 2007 where a member posts a YouTube link to a 'This is Sparta' remix meme video, prompting a handful of quick laughing replies from regulars. One poster points out this was actually a repeat topic, since the OP had posted about a different Sparta meme video before, which the OP clarifies with a laugh. Classic era-appropriate forum filler: a viral meme, some lol's, and mild ribbing over posting etiquette.

LOL! IMAGINE A REMIX!!!!! ROFLLLLLLLLLLL JUST WATCH HAHAHAHA.— Whats that?...BA... Whats that?...BANG!!

Lol.. You may edit your last topic about this.. anyways it's funny as hellz0r..— The Moose

My last SPARTA topic was about a different video. Completely different although both are very funny.— Whats that?...BA... Whats that?...BANG!!

Porsche 911 (Japp) commercial

A guy shares an old Japanese Porsche ad and everyone just... agrees it's funny.

A quick, low-stakes Links/Humor post from December 2007 where member Lucke shared a YouTube link to an old Japanese Porsche 911 commercial he found amusing. A handful of regulars dropped in to co-sign the joke with brief one-liners before the thread quietly died out. Nothing dramatic here — just a small, dated snapshot of the forum's Off-Topic humor sharing culture.

that was actually really funny dude— Goodapollo

I lold irl— blacknight00

I already know this, But nice found.— Keskin^

rofl funny iraq shit

A guy dumps some YouTube links, half the thread argues about whether they even work, nobody quite agrees it's funny

A 2008 Off-Topic/Links-Humor post where user l3m0nz shared a batch of YouTube videos billed as 'funny iraq shit.' The thread quickly derails into a minor squabble over whether the video IDs/links were broken, with l3m0nz insisting everything worked fine while others called the links dead. Reactions to the actual content were mixed — some laughed, others (like aKari) flatly said it wasn't funny — a small, forgettable slice of the forum's daily link-sharing culture.

all links are fucked.— LoRd Ragealot

its not funny boy— aKari

''U Want Candy'' ''Yea'' ''I Dont Have Any Candy, Do u want an handgranade'' LMFAO— Tundergun

matrix ping pong

A guy posts a 'funny video' link and immediately gets called old news by two different members.

A short, throwaway Links/Humor thread from November 2007 where member jacal shared a CollegeHumor video of a 'matrix-style' ping pong clip. It got a lukewarm reception — one reply pointed out it had been seen a thousand times, another flatly asked why it was even being posted, and someone accused jacal of double-posting under a different name. A tiny, forgettable slice of forum life, but a perfect snapshot of the casual link-dumping culture in Off-Topic.

I've seen this so many times. It never gets ol...— Huffy778

This video is so old... Why bother posting it?— bobbafett07

Man!! You made 2 posts with different name...— AKULA

Next time dont cheat, LOL

An 'infamous cheater smashed at a LAN' clip gets posted for the millionth time — and gets called fake in record time.

A member posts a well-worn YouTube link showing someone allegedly getting caught cheating and having their PC destroyed at a LAN tournament. Regulars immediately pile on to call it old news and likely staged, pointing out inconsistencies like the outdated hardware and the target's lack of resistance. It's a quick, low-stakes Off-Topic thread typical of the Links/Humor subforum — more banter than substance.

this guy gets completly owned for cheating at a LAN tourny— Legit_Hacks

Fake as fuck. Look at how crappy his "leet" machine is, its like a 15 year old windows 95 desktop.— HaSh

EEEXXXTTTRREEMMLLYY old— scuddzilla

Rocket propelled bike

Someone found a jet-propelled bicycle video and the forum had thoughts

A short Off-Topic/Links-Humor thread from November 2007 where user bragamuffin shared a Break.com link to a jet-propelled bicycle, wishing they had one. A handful of regulars weighed in with quick banter, debating whether building the thing would be more fun than riding it. Classic low-stakes link-sharing filler thread typical of the Links/Humor subforum.

a rocket propelled bike, i want one— bragamuffin

More fun bulding it up then riding it IMO.— Don Ruski

Noo, because when you ride it, you dont get tired in your legs and thats fun— banak

Super Cheap Posters

A Vintage Stock employee tipped off the forum to dirt-cheap movie posters, then forgot the actual link for a week

In this Off-Topic/Links & Humor thread from December 2007, a member claiming to work at a video game/media store shared a tip about ordering full-sized movie posters for a couple bucks each from a poster wholesaler site. Several members piled on asking for the missing link, which the OP had forgotten to include, and it took nearly a week before he circled back with the actual URL. A minor, mundane thread but a good snapshot of the low-stakes, helpful-tip energy of the Links/Humor subforum.

wheres the link?— sammo

A link would be nice.— Bucketface

mehh fux. i could have sworn i put it in there..— Goodapollo

lmfao now this will get u laughing

A last-day-of-2007 link drop that flopped so hard a Supervisor closed it with just "I Laughed."

A New Year's Eve 2007 Off-Topic post by sizzlemx619 shared the link internetisseriousbusiness.com expecting laughs, but it landed with a thud — replies called it annoying rather than funny, and one member told the OP to go kill himself. Supervisor HaSh shut the thread down with a sarcastically dry closing note. A minor, forgettable Links/Humor post that's mostly notable for the reception it got.

this was imo not funny but fucking annoying.— goofu

Go kill yourself...— Pr0wL3r454

I Laughed.— mr.N0Nam3 (closing reason)

You pr0n Name

The classic 'what's your porn star name' game hits Fkn0wned, chaos ensues over a quadruple-posted thread

A goofy Off-Topic/Links-Humor thread from November 2007 where members generate joke 'porn star names' for themselves using the old first-pet/middle-name-style formula. The thread starter accidentally posted the topic four times due to a forum error, drawing immediate mockery from a Crew member before things settled into everyone just dropping their silly aliases. Low stakes, pure filler humor typical of the board's off-topic culture.

way to post this 4 times fucktard.— HaSh

My pr0n name is : Randy Rockstiff— blackxthink

mine is: Tom Spanks lol— asshoel50

Mr. Bean Dance

A random YouTube link, one dead-simple reaction thread, and a mini pile-on over a one-post wonder — 2007 forum life in a nutshell.

A throwaway Links/Humor post from blackxthink shared a YouTube video (the 'Mr. Bean dance' clip) with a one-word reaction. The thread got a handful of replies ranging from laughs to indifference, and briefly derailed into members needling a low-post-count newcomer for gushing over the video. Peski-Ruski and The Moose weren't impressed, calling it old or not funny, giving the thread its small dose of classic forum snark.

Where the hell do people like this come from, he joined before me this is his first post...— Peski-Ruski

no, it's shit, thanks. Wow.. That wasn't funny.. Like rly..— The Moose

hahaha yes i am the kewlist kid out— uknowit
