Trading Rules and Middlemen

The stickied law of the land for Fkn0wned's trading forum — VAC checks, no stolen accounts, and a warning not to trust anyone but the official middlemen.

A staff-posted sticky laying out the official rules for the Trading > Auctions section, covering account trading etiquette: no VAC-banned or stolen accounts, no private hacks, proof-of-ownership screenshots, and a ban on hijacking other members' sale threads. It designates three named staff members as trusted free middlemen for trades and specifies the one official hotmail address they'd use, warning users to distrust impersonators. The post closes with a direct callout naming a specific user as a known scammer to avoid.

RuneScape Level 95 Account Auction

A guy tries to auction off his old recovered RuneScape account for 'fkn points' — except the site's currency was down, and someone got roasted for their fletching stats before a mod slammed the thread shut.

Member Monoxide41 tried to auction an old, recovered RuneScape level 95 account starting at 400 (the site's internal 'fkn points' currency), posting stat screenshots as proof. It quickly emerged the points system was temporarily disabled, deflating the whole auction, though a couple of members still expressed interest in buying. The thread fizzled into some good-natured stat-shaming of the account's skills before a supervisor stepped in with a warning and closed it.

theres no fkn points right now so no point really— Jack Daniels

I Lol'd at your 9 farming your 80 fletching your 21 construstion and your 52 crafting HAHAHAHAH.— Whats that?...BANG!!

Warned and Closed.— mr.N0Nam3

Bidding Starting at 1 [FkN] Point... (Demonoid Invite Auction)

One member auctioned off Demonoid invites for forum points — and someone named 'waLLa' walked away the winner.

A quick little auction thread in the Trading > Auctions section where user Famousss put up Demonoid invites for bidding, priced in the site's internal '[FkN] points' currency. A handful of members traded bids over about a day, with one guy asking innocently 'whats demonoid???', before the auction closed and waLLa took it with the top bid of 30 points. Classic small-scale forum economy stuff — low stakes, fast turnaround, and a clear deadline set by the seller.

demonoid invites...this will in on 6th oct at 12mid night UK time get bidding or make me an offer— Famousss

whats demonoid???— Legit_Hacks

and wer done, winner ins "waLLa"— Famousss

Demonoid Invite Auction: starting from 2PTS!!!

Back when a couple Demonoid invite codes were basically forum currency, up for grabs at a 2-point starting bid.

A short-lived auction thread in the Trading > Auctions section where user Famousss put up two Demonoid invite codes for bidding, starting at 2 points with a strict midnight UK deadline. It's a tiny, mundane slice of the site's trading economy — invite codes for the then-hard-to-join private tracker Demonoid were valuable enough to auction off for forum points. The thread got barely any traction, with one low bid and a moderator note about improper posting before it fizzled out.

2, thats right, TWO demonoid invites, one for your self maybe and one to sell prehaps....— Famousss

Battlefield 2 Key Auction on Forum Points

A Battlefield 2 key auction that lasted about 20 hours before a mod had to step in.

A quick little forum-points auction in the Trading > Auctions board: user Famousss put up a Battlefield 2 key with bidding starting at 10 points and a hard deadline the next day. Bids escalated fast — one user jumped straight to 50 points — prompting some light ribbing about points getting wiped out, and then a moderator had to remind people to bid correctly before the thread was closed out. A tiny, mundane slice of the old points-economy trading culture that these forums ran on.

Start at 50 points— miLLer

oh man ur already beaten all my pts— bragamuffin

Stop with the spamming auction still at 50 points.— miLLer

Demonoid Invite Auction: One Bid, No Drama

One lonely invite, one bidder, and a gavel that fell fast — the tiny economy of a dead-simple auction thread.

A member called bragamuffin put up a Demonoid (spelled 'Demoniod') invite for auction in the Trading > Auctions board back in October 2007, starting the bid at 10 points. Only one other user, HaSh, actually bid, offering the opening 10 points, and bragamuffin admitted he'd hoped for more action before closing it out and declaring HaSh the winner two days later. A small, quiet snapshot of the site's internal points-based trading scene, where invites to private trackers like Demonoid were treated as valuable currency.

surely more bids i was hoping it would a bit highe...— bragamuffin

BIDDING HAS STOPPED HASH ONE— bragamuffin

Torrent Invites for Sale: TorrentLeech & Demonoid

A member hawks private tracker invites for forum points — until someone points out this isn't even an auction

In this 2007 Auctions subforum thread, member r3skyline offered invites to the private torrent trackers TorrentLeech and Demonoid in exchange for forum points, citing a weekly allotment from TL. A couple of members responded wanting invites, with one offering to bump the price up. Along the way, member Sonikk needled the OP for posting a straight sale in the Auctions section rather than running an actual bidding auction — a small but telling glimpse of forum etiquette policing in the trading boards.

this is not an auction, this is a shop..— Sonikk

I'd like one of each, will give 15 points tota...— TheLoneMan

Post-Christmas CD Key Auction

One member's Christmas 2007 clearance sale: a grab-bag of game CD keys, starting bid a fiver.

A short auction listing posted in the Trading > Auctions subforum by member Famousss, offering a bundle of PC game CD keys (Need for Speed: Pro Street, Call of Duty, Bioshock x2, Battlefield 2, Battlefield 2142) either as a lot or individually, with bidding starting around $5-$10. It's a quick, casual post typical of the forum's trading section rather than any major event or drama, dated December 26, 2007 — just an ordinary post-Christmas sale between members.

you are bidding on all these cd keys as a bundle, or one, up 2 u, let me know any questions just ask— Famousss

bidding starts at 5 - $10ish good luck— Famousss

starting at 25 points

A modded game key auction that opened at 25 points — and got flagged before it could close

A member called Famousss posted a short auction in the Trading > Auctions section, offering a game key/crack combo with a starting bid of 25 points and a 12-hour countdown. The listing was brief and typical of the forum's points-based trading economy, but it drew an immediate moderation response from TuxifieD pointing out the post didn't follow proper posting format. The thread closed out quickly with no recorded bids in the archived content.

no cd" CRACK and key tested crack myself and it works start bidding finishes in 12 hours from this post good luck— Famousss

City of Heroes Account Auction

Cud puts a lvl 20 City of Heroes account on the block for 250 pts

A brief auction listing posted by member Cud in the Trading > Auctions section, offering a level 20 City of Heroes game account with a starting bid of 250 points. Typical of the site's trading culture where members bought, sold, and auctioned game accounts and digital goods. No bids or replies are recorded on the archived page, just the original post.

yea... got a lvl 20 on it.. auction starts at 250 pts— Cud
