Nice! (the one-line compliment thread that sparked a mini mod-vs-member spat)

A newbie just said 'you guys kick ass' — and somehow it turned into a forum-police showdown

A low-post-count member named affliction dropped a simple one-line compliment thanking the community in the Suggestions & Feedback section. A regular, Legit_Hacks, jumped in claiming it was posted in the wrong section and should get the poster warned, which drew immediate pushback from logik92 and supervisor DCLXVI, who pointed out the post was correctly placed feedback and that Legit_Hacks (a veteran member) should've known better. The thread is a small, good-natured snapshot of forum culture: quick to police newbies, quicker to call out the self-appointed forum cops. Peski-Ruski chimed in just to razz affliction for having a lower post count despite registering earlier.

You guys kick ass, I love you guys!— affliction

wrong section, stupid post..In my mind you should be warned, but i suppose your new and you dont know any better?— Legit_Hacks

Uhh, this is the right section, and it's a feedback post. In my mind, you should warned because you've been here for a while and should know better.— DCLXVI

wtf hide content... — the classic newbie confusion thread

A brand-new member gets stuck on every single 'Hide Content' wall — and gets told the secret in one line.

A newcomer (11 posts deep) hits the wall every early-2000s cheat forum member remembers: reply-to-unlock 'Hide Content' tags blocking scripts and downloads on every thread they open. A couple of regulars quickly explain the reply-to-reveal mechanic, and a mod-adjacent member shows up just to ask that the thread be closed. Mundane by design, it's a perfect little time capsule of forum culture and the low-stakes housekeeping that filled the Suggestions & Feedback board.

EVERY thread i looked in its been Hide Content. how can i get the stuff?— cLue^

Just post in that thread and you can see the content.— Renegade.MB

Close this nau plz.— The Moose

The 'Why Don't You Make a Hacking Category?' Suggestion

New member pitches a dedicated hacking forum — staff shuts it down fast, points to the exit (H4ck-y0u.org)

A newer member, FullSpeed3D, suggested Fkn0wned add a proper 'hacking' section for topics like cracking passwords and websites, arguing it would draw more visitors. Another member jokingly pointed him toward the site's affiliate H4ck-y0u.org instead. Staff member Peski-Ruski shot the idea down, explaining the site had already dealt with waves of kids wanting to 'hack shit' who just ended up banned, which FullSpeed3D took some offense to since he felt his suggestion was mischaracterized.

Show your work in the raging forum, and pray that people think you're something special and that somebody will actually give a shit.— Peski-Ruski

Check out fkn's affilate, H4ck-y0u.org (<--click it)— bobbafett07

I didn't said I want to hack. I just suggested you guys to make such a category.— FullSpeed3D

why am i not in 1k club?

A guy with 1,035 posts demands to know why he's not in the '1K Club' — chaos and cookie-shaming ensues.

A member named asshoel50, already past 1,000 posts, complains that he hasn't been promoted to the site's '1K Club' user group and says his PM to an admin (tux) went unanswered. Other members chime in with theories (site changes causing bugs, admins just being slow), some good-natured mockery, and a supervisor named Shifty briefly gets confused and thinks the OP already has the tag before backtracking. It's a small, mundane slice of forum bureaucracy — post-count rank grievances — treated with typical light forum humor rather than real drama.

I have over 1k posts and im not in 1k club, wtf?!?!— asshoel50

Are you guys blind? ROFL edit - nvm, his avatar tricked me.— Shifty.

You're special.. Here, have a cookie.— lol

Making Site Voting 'Obligatory' to Climb the Rankings

Two members plot how to bribe the porn-and-warez crowd into voting for Fkn0wned

A short suggestion thread in the Site Related > Suggestions & Feedback board where member Peski-Ruski proposes making voting for the site mandatory, floating the idea of tying it to warez/pass access to boost turnout, arguing the site's porn and warez visitors alone could push it to first place in whatever vote ranking system was in play. banak chimes in referencing how a Russian site handled voting via a popup window and asks if something similar could be implemented here, while noting the 1K Club (a veteran member group) shouldn't be affected by any changes. It's a small, practical housekeeping thread typical of the era's forum culture, focused on site growth tactics rather than drama.

Should be obligatory.— Peski-Ruski

If we had half the people that come here for pr0n and warez vote (minus the active members) we would have no problems with getting to the first place.— Peski-Ruski

Yeah, the russ site they open a new window of the voting site. Maybe we could do anything like this here?— banak

The Lottery - Ticket Display Bug

A member spent his points on lottery tickets and vanished into the void — turns out the ticket board only had room for 15 names.

A small support thread in Fkn0wned's Suggestions & Feedback board about the site's points-based lottery system. User completeidiot reported that buying tickets deducted his 10 points but didn't display his name on the ticket list. Regulars mystical1, minitureman, and bragamuffin clarified this was a known limitation of the lottery mod, which only showed the first 15 buyers regardless of how many tickets were actually sold. A minor, mundane bit of forum housekeeping, but a nice snapshot of the site's old points economy and community-run mini-games.

It shows the first 15 people that have baught a ticket. That mod only supports the first 15 people unless the mod is edited to show more.— mystical1

yh lol didnt you realise why you can only see 15 people when its got like 23 bought tickets— minitureman

Wrong Section, Kid: The Great Hitbox Hack Ask

A two-post newbie wanders into Suggestions & Feedback asking for a 'hitbox' hack — the regulars weren't having it.

A brand-new member with only 2 posts asked for a good CS 1.6 hack with a targeting/hitbox option, posting it in the wrong forum section entirely. Veteran members quickly clowned him for both his low post count and his misplaced thread, with one delivering some classic dry sarcasm and another simply pointing him toward the correct Counter-Strike 1.6 support section. A small, mundane, very typical slice of forum gatekeeping culture — new guy asks obvious question, old guard rolls eyes and redirects.

Yes, its the right section. You have 1 post aka you haven't downloaded a single hack.— banak

no that is not the right section...the right setion would be counterstrike 1.6/support— albert90

Just introducing myself (posted in the wrong forum)

New member says hi in Suggestions & Feedback instead of the intro thread — staff pile on to point out the mistake

A brand-new member named ateinchkok drops a one-line greeting into the Suggestions & Feedback board, evidently meaning to introduce themselves. Staff and regulars quickly point out this isn't the right section, noting there's already a pinned introduction thread over in General Discussion, and debate whether the thread should just be moved or closed. It's a small, mundane housekeeping moment typical of forum life, with staff member miLLer and regulars Keskin^ and [LiP]STicK. weighing in.

Completly the wrong section please read the title of the forum before you post. ps. welcome to the site.— miLLer

In General Discussion is already a "Indtroducing yourself" Thread.— Keskin^

Private Msg System

miLLer just wants to know why his PMs won't send

A short, mundane bug-report thread in the Suggestions & Feedback section, where staff member miLLer asks whether the private messaging system is broken for everyone or just him. GFX staffer Kismism replies, though the substance of the response is lost to formatting glitches in the archive. A small glimpse of everyday site upkeep rather than any major drama.

Is it just me or is the pm system not working?— miLLer

Suggestions & Feedback board index (Fkn0wned.Com)

Where members begged the admins to fix bans, add scammer sections, and stop the site from dying — for years.

This is a board-index listing for Fkn0wned's 'Suggestions & Feedback' subforum, spanning multiple eras of the site (visible threads range from late 2007 into 2009). Topics run the gamut of forum-life housekeeping: requests for new features (multi-upload, closing your own threads, a scammer section, mobile support), complaints about bans/warns and moderation, gripes about staff (like questions over who ran the 'rage' section), and periodic 'what happened to this site' morale threads. The tone is classic mid-2000s cheat-forum chaos — equal parts community self-governance, staff back-and-forth, and members venting about rules, all under the site's tongue-in-cheek motto 'We Moderate Your Fun.'

why is -still life- still in charge of the rage section?— [1K] Industry

BAN ME THIS SITE SUCKS— tdx622
