Laser AWP Skin Share (CS:S)
A noob's one-post love letter to a laser-dot AWP skin, tucked away in CS:S Skins forever.
A short, simple post in the Counter-Strike: Source Skins subforum where a member named Lawlzor234 shared a custom AWP weapon skin featuring a laser dot effect, hosted via a Mediafire link. The post is brief and enthusiastic, mostly praising the accompanying sound effect. It's a small, unremarkable snapshot of the era's skin-sharing culture, sitting alongside period-typical ad banners for a supplement giveaway.
This is a pretty good awp skin. I just love the sound :)— Lawlzor234
64-bit XP Cheat Request (Unanswered)
One lonely post asking for cheats that'd run on 64-bit XP — and nobody ever answered.
A brand-new member with a single post to their name asks the CS Source General board for free cheats compatible with 64-bit Windows XP Professional. The thread is a tiny time capsule of the era, when 64-bit operating systems were still a novelty and forum regulars were often more experienced than the wave of newbies flooding in looking for quick hacks. There's no visible reply, making it a classic unanswered 'noob question' post typical of the board.
What are the best free hax available that are compatible with windows xp proffesional x64 edition (64 bit)?— jedimasteralex1138
Wall Hack Request for aim_ Map Textures
One member offers free custom GFX art to whoever helps him see through walls on aim_ maps.
A short, single-post request from member Devlin1991 asking if anyone knows of a wall hack compatible with the dev/texture setup used on aim_ style Counter-Strike: Source maps, since most tools he'd found only worked on stock CS:S maps. As an incentive, he offered to make a free signature or wallpaper for whoever helped him out, showcasing a few samples of his GFX work. The thread got no visible replies logged in the archive, capturing a quiet, everyday corner of the forum's Counter-Strike: Source General section.
i am quite a skilled GFX artist and will do a sig or wall paper for the 1st person to help me just as a wee thank you— Devlin1991
Transparent Air on Dust Question
One-line question about clearing up Dust's smoke, one-line answer pointing to the cheats section — thread over in under an hour.
A very short, minor thread from November 2007 on Fkn0wned.com's Counter-Strike: Source General board, where a user with only this one post asked how to make smoke/air transparent on the map Dust. A regular from the site's Media Crew replied briefly, pointing them toward existing hacks on the forum that handled that effect. It's a tiny snapshot of the everyday cheat-scene chatter that filled these boards rather than any major event.
Get a hack that removes that stuff, alot of them on here do that.— DJSketch
Noob Requests Basic Wallhack in CSS General
A brand-new noob wanders into the CSS section asking someone to just make him a wallhack.
A short, single-post request thread from November 2007 in the Counter-Strike: Source General board, where a newly registered member with only 6 posts asks if someone could make a hack that renders all walls a single flat color (i.e. a basic wallhack). The thread got no visible replies in the archived content, typical of the many low-effort 'make me a hax' requests that filled the CS:S forums. It's a small, quiet snapshot of the site's cheat-request culture rather than any major event.
make a hax where the walls are all one colour.— UNDERTOW
Sketchy 'undetectable' CoD4 Steam cheat drop by instantly-banned poster
A broken-English pitch for a 'undetectable' CoD4 Steam cheat, dropped by a user who got banned almost instantly
A new member posting under the handle Norte, self-identified as a Spanish speaker with limited English, claimed to have an undetected Call of Duty 4 cheat for the Steam version and posted download mirror links. The post has the classic hallmarks of a low-effort or malicious file drop rather than a genuine release, and the poster's account is marked as Banned. No replies or discussion followed in the archived content.
I am Spanish and speak English alone evil queria to say that I have a cheto of CoD4 indectectable for steam to my me works I leave the link you.— Norte
Banned member begs for CoD4 CD key on Christmas Day 2007
Christmas Day 2007: a banned member begs the Other Games forum for a working CoD4 key, offering a BF2 key and a game character in trade.
A short, quiet thread in the Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare sub-forum where a user named Poppins (posting while already marked 'Banned') asks for a working CD key, offering to trade a Battlefield 2 key and an in-game character. It only got one reply, from a brand-new one-post member ('h4x0rs') whose account was flagged for an admin check. A small, forgettable slice of the CD-key trading/begging culture common on cheat-scene forums of the era.
i am willing to trade a bf2 key for it and maybe one of my characters that i have.— Poppins
cod4 server crash?
One lonely post asking how to take down a COD4 server — nobody bit.
A brand-new member named end3r posted a single question in the Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare subforum, asking if anyone knew how to crash a CoD4 server, mentioning he'd already tried pinging one to death without success. The thread got no replies, just two guests reading it into obscurity. A pretty unremarkable, low-effort post typical of the era's 'how do I mess with servers' genre.
anybody know how to crash a cod4 server? i have tried pinging it to death...but no luck....— end3r
[Req] Test dummie/bot for a exe, will remove instantly.
One VIP, one mystery .exe, and a request nobody wanted to touch too closely.
A short, single-post request in the Server & Computer Security subforum where user S3RK, a VIP member since mid-2007, asked if anyone could run an .exe file on a spare machine or bot to check whether it was being flagged, believing it to be 'FUD' (undetected by antivirus). The thread got no visible replies, capturing a very typical low-key moment of the forum's security/black-hat corner rather than any major saga.
I need someone to run a .exe on a bot or something so I can see whether it's working or not. I believe it's FUD.— S3RK
Portal Console Command Trouble via SteamEMU
A brand-new member just wants his Portal console to work — a tiny time capsule of the pirated-Steam era.
A lone post from a freshly-registered member ('Noob' rank, joined December 2007) asking for help getting the developer console to function in a copy of Portal run through a cracked Steam emulator, so he could use cheats and load his own HL2 maps. No replies followed, leaving it as an unanswered, single-post thread. It's a small but telling snapshot of the era when SteamEMU/pirated game setups were common discussion fodder on cheat-scene forums like Fkn0wned.
I downloaded Portal that runs off steamemu and it runs really well, however I cannot get the -console to work, so I can't use cheats/load my HL2 maps.— nikkun
Steam Game Server Status thread (page 3 of 3)
The tail end of a years-old thread just asking: hey, are the servers even up?
This is the final page of a long-running Steam Client subforum thread where members periodically checked in on the status of Steam game servers, mostly for Half-Life, CS 1.6, and CS:Source. By late 2007 the thread had devolved into low-effort bumps, one-word reactions, and someone asking if the original trick/status method 'still works' years later. It's a snapshot of the forum's Steam Related section functioning as a casual utility board rather than a drama hotspot.
does this still work?— mystical1
CS:S problem written by Napi
One lonely post, one broken download, zero replies — a tiny time capsule of tech support limbo.
A brand-new member named Napi posted a single support request in the Tech Support subforum, asking for step-by-step help getting some downloaded tool (linked to a forum attachment) to run, describing an error after extracting the file with WinRAR. The thread got no visible replies, capturing that classic 'first post, never answered' fate common on the site's Tech Support board. It's a minor, quiet artifact rather than a dramatic one, but typical of the day-to-day troubleshooting traffic on fkn0wned.
i can't get this system working could somebody help me step by step?— Napi
Halo 3 Montage: Revolver (Dutchy + Herbal T)
vermiLLion drops a Halo 3 montage and calls it one of the best in ages — video's long gone, hype remains.
A short thread in the Halo Series discussion board where longtime member vermiLLion shared a Halo 3 montage titled 'Revolver', featuring players Dutchy and Herbal T, calling it one of the best montages in a long time. The actual video content has been lost to time (marked 'Removed' in the archive). Typical of the console gaming clip-sharing culture on the forum, with no replies recorded on this page.
One of the best montages in a long time— vermiLLion
Decent 5 Digit - Sold
A market listing for a 'decent 5 digit' item, long since sold out and snipped into oblivion.
This was a brief marketplace listing posted by user FlareBunny in the Top Sellers District, a section of the Fkn0wned forum's Market Place where members advertised goods for sale. The item referenced (a '5 digit' good, likely a numbered account or similar digital commodity typical of the site's trading scene) was marked sold, with the original listing content redacted ('-Snip-'). The thread got minimal engagement, just the seller's own follow-up post confirming the goods were gone.
Good(s) are no longer available, they are sold.— FlareBunny
CS:S Demo to AVI Converter Request
One guy just wanted to turn his CS:S demo into an AVI — did anyone else remember that?
A quick, low-key request thread in the German-language sub-board 'Deutsche Hacks', where a longtime 1000 Club member asks if anyone recalls a tool for converting Counter-Strike: Source demo files to AVI. Rather than search for it himself, he asks the community for a link, hoping someone else already has it bookmarked. A small, mundane slice of everyday forum life rather than any major drama or cheat release.
Hm...sowas hats doch mal gegeben oder? Der konnte das zu AVI und so conventieren... hab keine lust zu suchen hat jmd nen link? plz— albert90
Selling Runescape Account (52 Combat, 355 Total, 30-Day Membership) - Nov 2007
A forum GFX staffer hawks his RuneScape account for gold or items back in '07.
A one-post trade listing in the Other Trades sub-board where member Geist (aka Connor), a Graphics staff member, offers his RuneScape account for sale — 52 Combat, 355 Total level, with 30 days membership active. He's asking for RuneScape items or gold in trade and drops his Xfire handle and email for interested buyers. A small, dated snapshot of the mid-2000s RuneScape/forum trading economy crossing paths with a CS:S-flavored cheat-scene community.
Offer me bitches or add me on [email protected] for more details.— Geist
One-Line Plea for a CoD4 Wallhack
A brand-new noob begs the CoD4 forum for a wallhack, gets... nothing.
A throwaway thread from March 2008 in the Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare subforum, opened by a fresh member ('ownagers', post count 1, joined the same day) asking if anyone had a working wallhack/ESP for the game. There's no reply or follow-up preserved on the page — just a lone, hopeful ask hanging in the archive. Typical of the low-effort request threads that filled the smaller game subforums outside the site's main Counter-Strike focus.
Hey, You have a wallhack or an ESP in Proof for cod4??? if you have please help me.— ownagers
Selling Steam acc With CODMW3 and more
A single lonely listing: one member's Steam account, CODMW3 bundled in, best offer wins
A one-post listing in the Regular Sellers District where user erre666 offered to sell a Steam account (bundled with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and other games, plus email access) to the highest bidder. The post included a screenshot link and got zero replies, a small snapshot of the forum's account/game-trading corner of the Market Place.
Hello im selling my steam acc with this games and his email im looking for any offer n.n— erre666
[WTT][H] Steam Acc. w/ Insurgency & more [W] GTA V or PvZ: Garden Warfare
A lone trader offers up a stacked Steam account for GTA V — nobody bit.
A single-post trade listing in the Regular Sellers District where user alphakiller offered a Steam account bundled with several games (DayZ, Rust, Left 4 Dead 2, Insurgency, Garry's Mod, and more) plus wallet funds and an Origin account with Battlefield 3, hoping to trade for GTA V or Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare. The thread got no replies, a small snapshot of the forum's low-key game/account swap market rather than any drama or notable event.
I have Steam acc. with these games as follows :- DAYZ RUST KANE AND LYNCH 2 LEFT4DEAD2 VILLAGERS AND HEROES- HEROES OF STORMHOLD PACK INSURGENCY STEAM GIFT Garry's Mod AND ACC. HAS WALLET ENABLED AND A ORIGIN ACC. WITH BATTLEFIELD 3— alphakiller
Black Ops Steam Account Traded for Minecraft Accounts
A quick Black Ops-for-Minecraft swap, wrapped up and locked before anyone could blink
A brief classified-style post in the Seller's Lounge where user sw1ft offered to trade a Call of Duty: Black Ops Steam account for two Minecraft accounts, marked urgent ('PLEASE FAST'). The trade concluded quickly, with the thread tagged [SOLD] and locked, and sw1ft leaving a short thanks to the trading partner. A small, everyday snapshot of the account-trading economy that ran through this corner of the forum.
GONE TO h4x0rz! THANKS FOR THE TRADE! :)— sw1ft
Use input from console? (CS:S scripting question)
A new scripter asks how to pull console input into a script — no drama, just old-school CS:S tinkering.
A single-post thread in the Counter-Strike: Source Scripts/Tools subforum where newcomer anderj917 asks whether it's possible to feed console input into a script, using an example of a name-change script that required manually editing a config file with a server IP each time. They pre-empt the obvious 'just do it manually' reply by framing it as a learning exercise in scripting mechanics rather than a practical need. The thread got zero replies, a small but authentic snapshot of the DIY scripting culture around CS:S at the time.
This is purely for the sake of learning scripting and getting input from console.— anderj917
Steam Reader - locked-out member asks for a login/password recovery tool
One forgetful Steam user, one clientregistry.blob, and a one-post cry for help that went nowhere fast.
A short, single-post thread in the Steam Client subforum where a member named Rock Superstar asks if anyone knows of a tool that can pull saved Steam usernames and passwords from a local clientregistry.blob file, having forgotten his own login. It's a small, mundane slice of the era's Steam account culture on Fkn0wned, sitting alongside the site's broader ecosystem of account trading and 'cheat scene' boards. No replies are recorded, just the original ask hanging there.
Is there a reader that reads the login and the password from the accounts that were used on a computer? Because i 4got mine :S.— Rock Superstar
HL2 Portal File Request
One lonely post asking if anyone's got the Portal game file — nobody answered.
A short-lived, single-post thread from October 2007 in the Steam Client subforum where member krakowwak asks if anyone has the game file for the newly-released 'HL2 portals' (a typo for Portal/Half-Life 2 era release). No replies followed, leaving it as a quiet snapshot of day-after-launch chatter. The page mostly preserves the site's full forum index and sidebar clutter, typical of the era's layout with Sig Of The Week callouts and IRC/affiliate links.
So it came out yesterday, does anyone have the game file?— krakowwak
Steam Friends Overlay Broken in CS:S
One member's Shift+Tab friends list quietly died in CS:S back in December 2007 — a tiny time capsule of old Steam growing pains.
A short, single-post tech support thread from Fkn0wned's Steam Client subforum where user goofu reports that the in-game Steam friends overlay (Shift+Tab) stopped working specifically in Counter-Strike: Source, while still functioning fine in the original CS 1.6. They mention already trying to delete their Clientregistry.blob file with no luck. No replies followed, leaving it an unresolved snapshot of everyday Steam quirks from the late-2000s.
i could usally press Shift + Tab in CSS and then i can see my friends online etc. but its not working anymore for some reason— goofu
BF2142 skins blocked by PunkBuster
One guy just wanted some BF2142 skins — and got warned that PunkBuster would flag him as a cheater for it.
A short, low-key thread in the Battlefield: 2142 sub-forum where user fizzer asked how to install custom skins and where to find them. The only reply, from darkfin2323, explained that skins weren't really a thing for BF2142 since PunkBuster would misidentify them as hacks and block play. A quiet, small-scale exchange typical of the niche 'Other Games' corners of the forum outside the main CS scene.
well there is no real skins for it, it make pb think its a hack and doesnt let you play— darkfin2323
[Request] Transparent Materials — CS:S Materials board
A one-line plea from 2009: somebody find this guy transparent textures for gg_texture_city and the snow GunGame maps.
A brief, single-post request thread in the Counter-Strike: Source 'Materials' subforum, where user Trollin asks for transparent material files usable on GunGame maps like gg_texture_city and various snow maps. No replies were archived, and the request stands alone as a small snapshot of the site's map-modding/texture-sharing culture. The surrounding page chrome shows the era's typical bodybuilding-supplement banner ad and a stray 'Hide hack is working now' shoutbox line, giving a flavor of the site's mixed gaming/cheat-scene ecosystem.
For maps like gg_texture_city, snow, alot of GunGame maps.— Trollin
Vn5socks.net Auto-Posted Proxy Dump
A bot posting endless 'LIVE' proxy dumps to the Proxies/Socks board — pure background noise of the cheat-scene economy.
This was an automated repost thread in the Proxies/Socks section where the user cashino113 dropped periodically refreshed lists of 'live' SOCKS proxies sourced from vn5socks.net, each entry tagged with IP:port, latency, and rough geolocation. The thread has no real discussion — just four back-to-back auto-generated posts spanning under 24 hours, functioning as a live-updating resource dump rather than a conversation. It's a small but characteristic artifact of the forum's proxy/sock trading corner, where automated tools and third-party checker sites fed constant streams of infrastructure listings to members.
Welcome to https://www.vn5socks.net/— cashino113
RCON pass getters? (unanswered)
One lonely one-liner asking around for RCON pass tools — and nobody ever answered.
A brief, barely-there thread in the Counter-Strike Source Materials/Scripts subforum, started by a low-post 'Noob' member named izetk0 in December 2009. The single post just asks if anyone has tools for getting RCON passwords. No replies were archived, making it one of those forgotten one-post threads that dot the old boards.
is there any rcon pass getters out there?— izetk0
How Much for a PSN Account?
Someone wanted to know the going rate for a PSN account — and the thread's biggest legacy is a VIP shop ad plastered over it.
A short, thin thread from the Gaming Market section of the Fkn0wned forum, apparently asking about pricing for a PlayStation Network account or related item. Little actual discussion content survives in the archive — what's left is mostly site furniture, including a recurring plug for user dazza821's VIP shop. A snapshot of the forum's low-key marketplace chatter rather than a major event.
YO BRO, CHECK OUT THE SHOP OF DAZZA TO SUPPORT FOR VIP— dazza821
Selling Steam Account with ~30 Games
A dead link to a dead account sale, on a dead site — the full circle of forum entropy.
A trade listing in Gametration.com's Steam Account Trades subforum, where a member advertised a Steam account bundled with roughly 30 games for sale. The original post content is gone now, marked '[DEAD]' by whoever archived the page, leaving only the listing title and forum navigation intact. Typical of the era's grey-market Steam account trading scene that thrived on small cheat/gaming forums before Steam cracked down harder on such trades.
Dead Steam Account Trade Listing (Gametration.com)
A dead listing for cheap low-number Steam accounts, frozen in time on a defunct cheat-scene trading board.
This was a marketplace-style thread in Gametration.com's Steam Account Trades subforum, where a seller advertised a stock of Steam accounts with low six-digit IDs (prized for looking 'old' or original) at discount prices. The actual listing content and shoutbox chatter are gone, leaving only the dead thread title and forum navigation skeleton as a marker that this kind of account trading was a normal part of the site's Trading section. It's a small artifact of the early-2010s cheat-scene economy, where forums like this doubled as informal marketplaces alongside their cheat databases for CS 1.6, CS:Source, Battlefield, and other games.
ZenosEngine Tutorial (content lost, Gametration MapleStory subforum)
A relic from Gametration's MapleStory corner — the ZenosEngine tut everyone half-remembers.
This page from Gametration.com's Maple Story subforum housed a tutorial thread referencing the ZenosEngine tool, part of the site's broader cheat-database ecosystem that also covered Counter-Strike, Battlefield, and America's Army. The actual thread content wasn't preserved beyond the site's navigation chrome, but its placement shows Maple Story had its own dedicated niche among the shooter-heavy crowd. Gametration was a fairly typical early-2010s multi-game cheat/mod community with staff hierarchies, reputation systems, and its usual mix of off-topic and 'basement' sections.
2moons (Gametration Other Games thread, content lost)
A lone MMO thread flickers in the 'Others' graveyard of Gametration's Other Games board.
This is a barebones archive capture of a thread titled '2moons' tucked into the Others subforum under Other Games on Gametration.com. The actual post content and replies didn't survive the archive, leaving only the site's navigation chrome and breadcrumb trail. Gametration was a broader gaming forum with dedicated Counter-Strike, Battlefield, and Steam sections, plus a cheat database, suggesting the 'cheat scene' crowd also drifted into general MMO chatter like this 2moons discussion.
WoW Stat Changer 2.0?
Someone asked if a legendary WoW hack tool had a sequel — and the thread barely got off the ground.
A short-lived post in the 'Others' subforum of Other Games on Gametration.com, asking about a possible follow-up to a World of Warcraft stat-editing tool. The page preserved is mostly forum scaffolding and navigation, with little actual discussion content surviving in the archive. It reflects the era's casual chatter about game-modifying tools across titles beyond the site's main CS/BF/AA cheat focus.
Warcraft III Programs (archived index page, no content)
A dusty corner of Gametration where WC3 tools got passed around before the site went dark.
This is an archived board page from Gametration.com's 'Other Games > Others' section, home to a thread about Warcraft III-related programs. The actual thread content wasn't preserved beyond forum navigation and category chrome, leaving mostly the skeleton of the site's structure — Counter-Strike, Battlefield, America's Army, and other cheat/database sections that defined the community. It's a faint trace of the broader cheat-scene forum culture rather than a fleshed-out discussion.
Halo Aimbot Request Thread
An old console cheat request thread from Gametration's forgotten 'Others' corner.
A short, sparse thread posted in Gametration.com's Other Games > Others subforum, apparently seeking or discussing an aimbot for a Halo title. The archived page preserves mostly site navigation and forum chrome, with little substantive discussion content surviving. It's a small artifact of the era when console shooters like Halo got the same cheat-scene treatment as PC games such as Counter-Strike and Battlefield on this site.
War Rock Hack thread (archive fragment, Gametration.com)
A War Rock cheat thread on a long-dead multi-game cheat forum, preserved mostly as skeleton and site chrome.
This archived page sits in the 'Other Games > Others' section of Gametration.com, a cheat/hack-sharing forum from the early 2010s that also covered Counter-Strike, Battlefield, and America's Army among others. The actual thread content (posts, replies, discussion) wasn't captured — what remains is the site's navigation shell, forum category list, and database structure. It's a faint trace of a War Rock-focused hack thread rather than a readable discussion.
Steam Account Trading Listing - 7-8 Digit Accounts from $4
Somebody was hawking a 'big list' of cheap Steam accounts for as little as $4 a pop.
A seller posting in Gametration.com's Steam Account Trades subforum advertised a bulk list of Steam accounts, pitching low-digit (7-8 digit) accounts as a selling point and starting prices at $4. This kind of listing was typical of the account-trading economy on cheat-scene forums of the era, where old low-numbered accounts were prized as a status symbol. The archived page itself only preserves the site's navigation chrome, so the actual thread replies and haggling are lost to time.
Looking for 6-7 Digit Steam Account (Gametration Trades)
Someone on Gametration was hunting for a low-digit Steam account — the ultimate early-Steam flex.
A short trading post in Gametration.com's Steam Account Trades subforum where a member sought a Steam account with a 6-7 digit ID, back when low account numbers were a status symbol from Steam's early years. Typical of the site's Trading section, which ran alongside its cheat database and forums for CS 1.6/Source, Battlefield, and other early-2010s gaming scenes. The archived page itself is mostly bare site chrome, with the actual trade details lost to time.
Selling COD4 - $25 (Steam Account Trades)
A $25 COD4 listing, frozen in time on Gametration's old trading board.
A brief classified-style post in the Steam Account Trades subforum offering a Call of Duty 4 account or copy for $25. The page itself is mostly site navigation chrome from Gametration.com, a cheat/gaming community with sections for CS 1.6/Source, Battlefield, Steam trading, and more. No real discussion or replies survive in the archived content, just the listing title and forum structure typical of the era's account-trading scene.
Steam Shop - Gametration.com (dead link, no content preserved)
A dead storefront thread from Gametration's Steam trading days — link's long gone, but the vibe lingers.
This page was a listing in the Steam Account Trades subforum of Gametration.com, a gaming/cheat-scene community with its own cheat database spanning Counter-Strike, Battlefield, America's Army and more. The thread itself was a 'Steam Shop' post, apparently a member's storefront for Steam account trading, but the archive only preserved the dead shell of the site chrome and navigation — no actual trading content survived. It's a small artifact showing how these early-2010s forums blended cheat distribution with informal account/item trading economies.
Dead Listing: Low-Digit Steam Account for Sale
Someone was hawking a rare low-digit Steam account — and now the listing itself is just a ghost.
A trading post from Gametration.com's Steam Account Trades subforum, advertising the sale of a Steam account with a coveted low ('-1 digit') account number, a mark of prestige in early Steam collector circles. The actual listing content is gone, with the page title itself flagged '[DEAD]' — a common fate for account trade threads once links, images, or the seller vanished. It's a small time capsule of the account-flipping economy that ran alongside cheat trading on these old gaming forums.
GENUINE BioShock CD Key Trade Listing
A one-off CD key listing from the Steam Account Trades corner of a long-dead cheat scene forum.
This page was a trade listing on Gametration.com's Steam Account Trades subforum, advertising a supposedly genuine BioShock CD key. The archived version has almost none of the original post content left, just the site's navigation chrome and breadcrumb, but it captures a snapshot of the site's structure — a gaming/cheat community with dedicated sections for CS 1.6, CS:Source, Battlefield, America's Army, Maple Story cheats, plus trading, tech, and off-topic boards. Typical of the era, key and account trading lived alongside cheat databases in the same community.
[MW2] OptTic DTreats :: Moodie Blues :: Montage
vermiLLion drops a lone MW2 montage link into the void — no replies, just vibes.
A short, single-post thread in the Console Gaming > Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare 2 section where longtime member vermiLLion shared a montage titled 'OptTic DTreats :: Moodie Blues', credited to editor 'written by vermiLLion'. The post got zero replies, typical of the era's flood of clan/montage promo threads. Notable mainly for showing vermiLLion's deep tenure on the forum (joined Nov 2007, over 5,600 posts, tagged as [FkN] Crew) and the site's general culture of console MW2 montage sharing.
Skins! (Team Fortress 2 skins thread)
The one where TF2 folks swapped custom skins before that was even a normal thing to do
A short thread in Gametration.com's Team Fortress 2 subforum where members shared or discussed custom cosmetic skins for the game. Not much drama here — just a quiet corner of an old cheat-and-gaming community talking shop about visual mods. A snapshot of the site's broader structure, which spanned Counter-Strike, Battlefield, America's Army, and a full cheat database alongside its off-topic and 'Raging and Advertising' boards.
[Halo 3] Muggsy + How2BR :: Overclock :: Montage
vermiLLion drops a Halo 3 montage in the Console Gaming halls — barely a trace left behind.
A short-lived Halo Series thread from Fkn0wned's Console Gaming section, posted by veteran member vermiLLion sharing a Halo 3 montage/video titled 'Muggsy + How2BR :: Overclock'. The archived page preserves only the opening post with no visible replies, typical of many single-post video-share threads on the forum. The surrounding page still shows the site's classic give-away banner touting free Steam accounts, a nostalgic reminder of the forum's promo culture circa 2010.
Cruel Bloom — COD4 montage/clip share by vermiLLion
A single, nearly wordless COD4 post from a veteran '[FkN] Crew' member — the archive's kept it, minus the actual content.
This is a short thread in the Console Gaming > Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare 2 Discussion board, posted by long-time member vermiLLion in May 2010, titled 'Cruel Bloom.' The original post content wasn't preserved in this archive snapshot, only the header and page furniture (site nav, giveaway banner ad for the era's free steam/rapidshare promos). vermiLLion was a well-established '[FkN] Crew' member with thousands of posts dating back to 2007, suggesting this was likely a montage, clip, or gameplay-related share typical of that section rather than a major event.
[H] Paypal [W] Two CSS accounts
A simple PayPal-for-CSS-accounts trade post from the Buyers Plaza days.
A brief classified-style listing in the Market Place's Buyers Plaza, where a member offered PayPal funds in exchange for two Counter-Strike: Source accounts. It's a small snapshot of the forum's informal trading economy, typical of the buy/sell/trade culture that ran alongside the site's cheat and hack databases for various games. No major drama or notable exchange is preserved beyond the listing itself.
Fopje's Logs Shop [Temporarily Closed]
A logs vendor's storefront in the Top Sellers District — closed sign hanging on the door.
This page was a vendor thread in the Gaming Market's 'Top Sellers District', run by a member going by Fopje who sold 'logs' (a common cheat-scene commodity of the era). By the time this snapshot was archived the shop had been marked temporarily closed, leaving just the shell of a once-active sales listing. No actual content survived in this capture beyond the site's navigation chrome and database/forum category links.
Halo 3 Montage: 'Tranquility' by vermiLLion
vermiLLion drops a Halo 3 montage called 'Tranquility' into the Discussion pit
A short-lived thread in the Halo Series > Discussion sub-board where longtime [FkN] Crew member vermiLLion posted a Halo 3 montage titled 'Tranquility'. The post itself is bare-bones with no replies preserved, typical of many montage-share threads on the forum where the video was the whole point. Surrounding site chrome shows the era's give-away culture (steam accounts, rapidshare) that ran alongside the gaming boards.
