Complete Idiots Guide to Playing Guitar (Rapidshare)
A gaming/cheat forum's book-piracy corner where someone dropped a guitar tutorial and got mocked for asking if it was 'like Guitar Hero 3'.
A short, low-key thread in the Electronic & Audio books sub-board of the Red Light District section, where user asshoel50 posted a link to a guitar-learning ebook via Rapidshare. Replies are mostly quick thanks and jokes, including someone confusing the book with the video game Guitar Hero 3, which got playfully clowned by another member. Nothing dramatic here — just a typical small-scale file-sharing thread with the casual, jokey tone common to the forum's off-topic corners.
is this like guitar hero 3— jcomp6
gh3 is nothing like guitar k i keeeeel u!!!— AlbinoBoi
Fuck yeah I need this shit after getting 1 for x-mas— lragnarok11
Hypnotic Handshake - Learn It!
A guy tries to teach the forum Erickson-style hypnosis, gets buried under a triple post and a wave of skeptical 'unhide' replies
In this Red Light District thread, member Afreak posted an explainer on the 'Hypnotic Handshake,' a brief-hypnosis technique attributed to Dr. Milton H. Erickson, framing everyday zoning-out (like driving on autopilot) as proof people slip into trance states constantly. The thread runs from October 2007 into 2008 mostly as a long tail of one-line reactions — skepticism, curiosity, 'unhide' spam to reveal hidden content, and thanks-for-sharing posts — rather than real discussion. Its most memorable moment is scuddzilla accidentally triple-posting the same reaction, which gets called out by other members as classic forum clumsiness.</br>Overall it's a low-stakes, mildly odd curiosity thread typical of the site's 'Electronic & Audio books' subforum, where random self-help/pseudo-science content got dumped and mildly engaged with.
WTF WAS THAT lol— scuddzilla
thats tripple post...— banak
LOL @ triple post. And im very skeptical bout this...— -Shikari-
Will Bodybuilding Stun Growth?
A teenage gym rat asks the age-old locker-room myth question — and half the forum's veterans weigh in with dubious gains wisdom.
A member worried that hitting the gym would stunt his growth kicked off a casual back-and-forth in the Sports & Fitness section. Regulars traded old-school gym folklore about squats and bench press supposedly compressing the spine, army service anecdotes, and reassurances that things sort themselves out by 16. It's a low-stakes, friendly thread typical of the forum's off-topic lifestyle side, with some of fkn0wned's longtime higher-rank members (Founder, VIP, 2K/1K club) chiming in casually alongside newer members.
stay away from squating and benching, they will stunt ur growth. Leg presses are fine. You really dont want to compress your spine when you're young.— TuxifieD
And dont join the army lol I joined at 6' And in the last and now Im 5'9 and a half— retsnomlc
Once your reach about 16, youll be fine. Really. Dont worry about it.— -Jedi-
72 Dating E-Books
A Fkn0wned staffer dumped a 72-item list of pickup and seduction e-books, and the replies were pure mockery.
A staff member posted a numbered list of 72 dating/seduction e-books and guides (covering everything from classic pickup-artist material to relationship and 'attraction' texts) in the Electronic & Audio books subforum of the Red Light District section. The thread quickly turned into a lighthearted ribbing session, with members joking that anyone needing that many dating books was 'in trouble' and reacting with disbelief and laughter rather than genuine interest in the content.
lol if u need this many dating books u r in trouble— scuddzilla
de angelo ftmfw— f3nr15
erm.. i dont need this :sneaky eyes:— Paws
Sams Teach Yourself Visual C++ 6 in 21 Days (ebook share thread)
A dusty Visual C++ tutorial book thread where half the CS:S crowd swore they'd finally learn to code their own hacks.
A long-running ebook-sharing thread in the Electronic & Audio books subforum of the Red Light District, originally posted by user 'pato', offering the classic 'Sams Teach Yourself Visual C++ 6 in 21 Days' programming book. The thread stretched from mid-2007 into early 2008, filling up mostly with short 'thanks/ty' replies from members grabbing the download, plus a couple of members mixing up Visual C++ with Visual Basic. A recurring bit of dry humor was the running joke about Visual Basic being 'for girls' compared to real C++.
thnx dude this will come in handy now i can learn to makes my own hax— mermaid00
s'good To bad visual basic's for girls might look later..— AlbinoBoi
unhide i am trying to learn c++ sort of.— minitureman
New GFX Card: Budget GPU Advice for CSS (2009)
A guy with a $100-150 budget just wants to run CSS without lag — the forum piles on with GPU advice circa 2009
A member named tauruspt2 asks for help picking a budget graphics card ($100-150) for an aging Athlon X2 rig, mainly to play CSS, CoD, and HL2. Several regulars chime in with era-appropriate suggestions — Radeon 4870s, 4850s, 4770s, 9600/9800 GTs — trading FPS bragging rights along the way. Tauruspt2 ends up grabbing a PNY 9800GTX+ from Best Buy on tech advice, then runs into a 'no signal' display problem and asks for troubleshooting help. A fairly mundane but charmingly of-its-time snapshot of late-2000s PC gaming hardware talk.
Or if you want to spend some more money, get the HD4890, im getting 300fps easily on css— SuperOc
I like the 4850's, they're cheap and can run Crysis on max. GL to you mate! ;)— ap3x
well I ended up getting a PNY 9800gtx+ because it was only about $100 at my local bestbuy— tauruspt2
Halo: Reach Hype Thread
Bungie ditching Microsoft for Activision? One member's hype thread turns into a rumor-mill for Halo: Reach.
A short hype thread started by Blackfathom ahead of Halo: Reach's release, asking members what they were excited for. Replies range from genuine anticipation over the new Battle Rifle and jetpacks to admin ap3x dismissively calling out 'halofags' and defending Halo 3, plus a (incorrect) rumor that Bungie had left Microsoft for Activision. Small, casual, very of-its-era console gaming chatter with the usual forum slang and light ribbing.
all you halofags need to calm down halo 3 is still the bomb... microsoft is just trying to play out the series for moar cash— ap3x
Bungie basically dropped microsoft and teamed up with activision NAB NAB NAB. <3— Blackfathom
jetpacks foar all (y)— lulraep
Is This Worth In-School Suspension?
Kid doodles a dick on a girl's cheek with a leaky pen, gets slapped with 25 demerits — forum jury says overkill.
A member at a strict private school recounts drawing a crude doodle on a female classmate's cheek as a joke, which led to a teacher and principal escalating it into an in-school suspension worth 25 demerits. The thread turns into a lighthearted debate/poll on whether the punishment fit the 'crime,' with most voters (58%) siding with the OP that it wasn't worth anything. It spirals into members comparing absurdly strict school rules across countries, trading school-drama and hot-teacher stories, and general off-topic ribbing typical of the Debating subforum.
Wow, what strict mother fucking bitches, do you lo...— HaSh
I'd say just 5 for drawing a dick haha.— Janza
I highly recommend you transfer to another school.— Hasibur.fkn
Life, the Universe, and Everything
A late-night dorm-room philosophy dump lands in the Debating forum — aliens, religion, and why humanity keeps ruining its own party.
In December 2007, member hunterbrute224 opened a rambling late-night existential thread in the Debating subforum, floating the idea that humans might be aliens from Mars, questioning the point of religion, and asking why people keep trying to 'make the world better' while making it worse. A handful of regulars (Peski-Ruski, Eckos, Seaking, olie22) jumped in with quote-chain replies, mostly praising the topic and sparring lightly over the points raised. It's a small, low-drama thread typical of the forum's Off-Topic corner — a place for stoner-hour big questions between rounds of CS.
What if humans are the aliens themselves?— hunterbrute224
WHY DO HUMANS CONSTANTLY TRY AND MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE TO LIVE, BUT ONLY SUCCEED IN MAKING IT EVEN MORE OF A SHIT HOLE?— hunterbrute224
Awesome topic, respect.— Peski-Ruski
Will France Ever Be Useful?
A 2007 poll and pile-on about the French turns into a mini flame war over Iraq, WW2 jokes, and one guy's 'French ex-pat email' copypasta.
A Debating-board thread opened with a poll asking users' opinions of France, followed by a wall of old French-bashing jokes and a copy-pasted email supposedly from someone who lived in France. Most replies were low-effort jabs and jokes (rugby player Sébastien Chabal, French kissing, accents), but user Peski-Ruski broke from the pile-on to angrily call out the OP's Iraq/WW2 comparisons as incoherent, sparking a brief real argument before the OP admitted it 'wasnt really a debate.' Typical Off-Topic energy: a flimsy premise, a poll nobody takes seriously, and a couple of members trying to inject actual substance into the chaos.
Are you trying to change some one's mind about the French? ... So far you've only stirred shit— Peski-Ruski
France Sux, Quebec pwn kthx— blackxthink
iut wasnt really a debate, i just wanted to know people's opinions.— Industry
"Most Painful Way of Suicide" — Off-Topic Debating Thread
A joke debate thread where forum regulars one-up each other with the most absurd, cartoonishly gruesome hypothetical death — then get called out for it not actually being about suicide.
A member named Legit_Hacks spun off a companion thread to an existing 'least painful way to die' topic, asking forum-goers to imagine the *most* painful way to go instead. What followed was classic Off-Topic escalation: increasingly over-the-top, tongue-in-cheek scenarios (sandpaper, acid, sledgehammers, and worse) rather than any serious discussion. A side-argument broke out over grammar and whether the posts even qualified as 'suicide' versus just describing murder, with staff members and regulars ribbing each other and the OP's spelling. A staff member eventually shows up pages later to point out the thread is a duplicate and belongs in the humor section, not Debating, calling it barely a 'debate' at all.
None of you are talking about suicide. Your all talking about some killing you, you have to be able to di it yourself.— Bucketface
if the dumbass cant spell "suicide" correctly in the thread title then im not going to talk about what the thread is intended for.— -Still Life-
this thread is not only a duplicate, but it also fails, it should be in the humor section. It's as much as a debate as my socks ffs.— Peski-Ruski
Cannabis Legalization Debate (2008)
Fkn0wned's resident CS 1.6 mods and 1-post wonders settle the war on drugs, 2008-style.
A 2008 Debating subforum thread kicked off by longtime member/moderator c0ke asking whether weed should be legal, weighing the appeal of legalization against how easily the black market could be exploited for profit. A handful of members chimed in with typical forum-philosopher takes on regulation, dealers moving to harder drugs, UK drug classification law, and anecdotal claims about weed and mental health. Fairly low-traffic but earnest thread, capturing the classic early internet forum pastime of teenagers debating drug policy in the off-topic section.
I think that bud should be legalized but at the same time I don't because of how exploitable the black market for it is.— c0ke
It'd be more helpfull if it was legalised, even though i can't see it happening. And dealer's would have to move onto Harder drugs.— Geist
Moving should be made illegal but possession and use should be made LEGAL.— zumzum1
AMD vs Intel, Nvidia vs ATI hardware debate
The classic PC hardware holy war lands in Debating — everyone's rig, nobody's mind changed.
A straightforward hardware debate thread from the Fkn0wned Debating subforum, where Famousss asks members whether they run AMD or Intel and Nvidia or ATI. Responses are quick and casual, with most posters admitting brand loyalty rather than hard data, a couple of Intel Pentium/Core 2 Duo callouts, and a mild meta-jab about the thread even belonging in the Debate forum. Standard early-2010s tech-forum banter, low drama, high nostalgia for the old CS 1.6/CS:S crowd comparing gaming rigs.
Meh bad topic All this does is cause Arguing Intel sucks AMD wins— hunterbrute224
never go for intel pentium there shit intel core 2 due and quds are good AMD is ment to kik ass— olie22
And to hunterbrute, this is the Debate Forum.— Arcade
Paranoid behaviour when smoking weed
A small-town stoner asks if anyone else feels like their dad's hiding in the bushes — cue the forum's resident smokers, skeptics, and one guy repping legal weed in Germany.
A member starts a thread in the Debating subforum asking if others get paranoid while smoking weed, describing feeling watched in his small town. Replies range from non-smokers shrugging it off, to a member citing Germany's weed laws, to a moderator (miLLer) admitting he gets 'big time' paranoia too. The tone is casual, joking Off-Topic banter typical of the board rather than a serious drug discussion.
LOL, if your gonna be paranoid dont smoke it— mr.N0Nam3
I get Paranoia big time... you're not alone.— miLLer
who ever takes drugs is kinda a loser if ya cant enjoy yaself without drugs— olie22
Fucking BULLSHIT (Rapidshare is down)
The day Rapidshare broke and half the forum panicked mid-download
A member named Insatiable vents about Rapidshare suddenly refusing to connect, right after they'd uninstalled a Greasemonkey script that faked premium downloads. A handful of regulars chime in to commiserate, confirming it wasn't just him and that the service was likely just glitching or temporarily down. Don Ruski laments being one link away from finishing a Call of Duty 4 download. Ultimately marked closed by a moderator (Exodus) with the reason simply restated as the thread title itself — a classic low-stakes rant thread about early file-hosting frustrations.
I cant connect to Rapidshare...And that boys, girls and ollie, is FUCKING BULLSHIT!— Insatiable.
I know, I was one link away from playing COD4— Don Ruski
Feel the phail of www.rapidshare.com— Insatiable.
British Sport (as of late)
Shifty rages about England's terrible October 2007 sporting month — then gets baited into a Russia/football/military derail.
Forum supervisor/admin Shifty. opens a rant thread venting about a rough month for British sport in October 2007: England's football loss to Russia, the Rugby World Cup final defeat to South Africa, and Lewis Hamilton blowing his F1 title chance, offset only slightly by an Amir Khan boxing win. Replies mix commiseration and needling, with Peski-Ruski razzing Shifty over the football loss which spirals into a mock-serious 'football vs military' bicker before both sides laugh it off. Admin Malware chimes in blaming the media for hyping/slamming British teams and taking a jab at Russia. Overall a light-hearted, off-topic sports gripe thread typical of the Rants and Raves board, ending amicably.
MOTHER FUCKING BRITISH SPORT IS CURSED— Shifty.
YOU LOST TO RUSSIA IN FOOTBALLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!— Peski-Ruski
your country cheats and will soon be communist again - enjoy the ride.— Malware
Google SketchUp Pro Crack Request
A newbie with barely 10 posts asks for cracked Sketchup Pro, gets called out, gets served anyway
In the Red Light District's Requests section, a low-post-count member named dalags asked for a cracked copy of Google SketchUp Pro to export a 3DS Max file for a game project. Fellow member ynaggo jokingly called out his post count for not meeting the 10-post minimum, but veteran Rager 'Arcade' delivered the goods anyway with a full scene-style release post crediting TEAM ACME. A couple of members thanked the poster before the thread quietly ended, a small snapshot of the forum's casual warez-request culture and its post-count gatekeeping rules.
Lol u have 12 posts— ynaggo
doesnt matter ive only got 12 now 13 posts veryone has to start one day— dalags
WHERE OTHERS PATCH WE KEYGEN— Arcade
DIY t-shirt printing tutorial request
Someone on a CS cheat forum wanted to make DIY band merch, and the thread got weirdly wholesome
A member named Cud asked the Requests board for a tutorial on printing designs onto t-shirts at home, completely unrelated to the site's usual gaming/cheat content. Fellow member ynaggo offered up a guide (apparently used it before to print the fkn0wned logo), leading to some back-and-forth about light vs dark shirts and how complicated the process sounded. A couple of onlookers chimed in that the topic seemed interesting before the thread petered out.
need tut on how to print my own things on shirts at home, ty— Cud
On which shits dark or white? Because is matters and ive got a tut right beside me XD.— ynaggo
Yeah ive tried if befor i put the fkn0wned logo >:O— ynaggo
Portal and BioShock Warez Request Thread
One guy just wanted Portal and BioShock — and half the forum showed up just to say thanks.
A simple 2007 request thread in the Red Light District's warez Requests board: member jacal asked for a copy or torrent of Portal and BioShock, and Arcade delivered with an .iso pointer. What followed was a long, low-key parade of members dropping in over the following weeks just to say thanks, a nice little snapshot of the forum's file-sharing culture and community courtesy norms of the era.
if anyone can upload the portal gfc somewhere or the torrent for it plz tell me and the bioshock gfc to plz or at least 1 will do me thank you— jacal
Been looking for Portal TY— Thanatos
ty biotches been looking for these thx ^^— 3dstz
Wo seid ihr denn Alle!!!!??? — German Mac vs Windows banter
A German 'where'd everybody go' thread devolves into a full-on Mac vs. Windows slapfight.
This thread in the German-language subforum of Fkn0wned.com started as a check-in ('where is everybody?') but by page 4 had turned into a lighthearted but heated Mac-versus-Windows argument among German members. Users traded jabs about Apple's OS supposedly copying Windows, with links and broken English/German banter. Typical low-stakes off-topic bickering that filled the quiet spells of a niche cheat-scene community's foreign-language corner.
Apple ist total zurck geblieben, Windows FTW.— Keskin^
wer musste den bei apple fr ihr neustes betriebsystem abgucken ? windows— flatschGER
wenn es nie windows 1.0 gegeben htte, htten die MAC macher auch nicht mal nen ansatz einer idee was sie machen sollten....— albert90
German Warez Sites Thread devolves into 'Pen0r' semantics debate
Seven pages of Germans arguing about warez sites and, somehow, whether 'Pen0r' means 'Penis'
This was the tail end of a long-running German-language thread in the 'Deutsche Hacks' subforum where members swapped chatter about warez sites. By page 7 the actual topic had mostly dissolved into off-topic banter, including a nitpicky back-and-forth over leetspeak slang ('Pen0r' vs 'pen1s'). A newer member thanks the group and says he'll check things out, showing the thread still served its original purpose for lurkers even as regulars derailed it.
Pen0r = Penis? Da passt was nicht.— Keskin^
pen1s = Penis!— Keskin^
vielen danK;) werde mal durchchecken— emre71
28 Weeks Later
German members argue about zombie-movie realism, contrast filters, and whether a download link is worth the risk
A casual off-topic thread in the 'Deutsche Hacks' subforum where member aKari shares clips and a download link for the horror film '28 Weeks Later', sparking a lighthearted back-and-forth in German about the movie's visual style, its 'realism', and whether it's worth downloading. The tone is chatty and low-stakes, with some ribbing between regulars and a passing mention of aKari hitting his 200th post. Typical of the forum's Other Games / Deutsche Hacks corner where German-speaking members hung out for casual chat rather than hacking talk.
der film schein ja vor realismus zu platzen^^— albert90
haste angst mhh???— aKari
ich finde ihn so lala— albert90
28 Weeks Later & 28 Days Later movie share thread
A German-language board gets its horror-flick fix — in English, naturally, and someone had to point that out.
In this 2007 thread from the 'Deutsche Hacks' subforum, member anarchie65 posted Rapidshare download links for the films '28 Weeks Later' and '28 Days Later,' both in English despite the board being German-speaking. This sparked some light teasing from aKari about posting English content in a German forum, met with self-deprecating humor from anarchie65. The thread devolves into friendly banter, a running joke about 'therapy,' and a brief debate on whether English or German movie dubs are superior, with albert90 backing anarchie65's side. It's a small, casual slice of the community's file-sharing culture and easy camaraderie.
frage?? du postest es in Deutschen forum aber verlinkst den Film in englischer sprache????— aKari
filme auf englisch sind eh 2 mal besser als auf deutsch!— albert90
mhh ich kann dich THerapieren ??— aKari
Rapidshare Premium Accounts For Sale
A guy named 'laptops' hawks year-long Rapidshare premium accounts for cash, undercutting the official price and haggling with a Fkn0wned Crew member over months and dollars.
A late-2007 trading thread in the 'Other Trades' subforum where member 'laptops' advertises Rapidshare premium accounts of various expiration dates for sale, preferring cash/PayPal over game-account trades. A back-and-forth haggling session ensues, mainly with 'Sonikk' (a [FkN] Crew member who later shows as a Supervisor), negotiating price and account duration down from a full year to six months as a loyalty discount. It's a small, casual slice of the site's grey-market trading culture, complete with cheeky off-topic banter about pizza and hand jobs derailing the deal briefly before business resumes.
how bout a hand job and a piece of pizza!— .:XxX:.
a years account from rapidshare itself is 37.50 so im chargin 12, very worth it!— laptops

The '300' Streaming Thread That Wouldn't Die
One dead link, a hundred bumps: the archive's most persistent '300' rerelease thread.
A user named Guru posted streaming links to '300' in the Movies subforum of Gametration's Red Light District section, and the thread limped along for months as the links repeatedly broke and got re-hosted. It devolved into the classic 'unhide'/'thx'/'ty' spam pile so common on cheat-scene forums' warez boards, punctuated by a few dramatic reactions and dead-link complaints. It's a snapshot of the low-effort media-sharing culture that lived alongside the site's cheat and hacking content.
GOD DAMN THEY CAN RECORD. They had to have had a l...— Rockforce

FUCKING HELL I LOVE YOU SO MUHC HAVE MY BABIES— Toulamackrides
How Do I Get Portal Running?
Fresh off buying it off bitlord, a member just wants to know how to get Portal running — cue confusion and a sarcastic 'just buy it'.
A member fresh to the newly-released Portal (2007) asks how to get it running, mixing up mods that put the portal gun into Half-Life 2 versus actually playing Portal itself. Regular pyeman links a guide that turns out to be the wrong one, leading to a bit of back-and-forth clarifying the difference. The thread ends with thesource dryly suggesting the obvious: just buy the game. Classic small-scale tech-support chatter typical of the Steam Client subforum in late 2007.
It keeps saying 'mountappfile()failed' or something like that.— kazein
no that site tells u how to put the portal gun in hl2 not how to put hl2 into portal— pyeman
Or you can just buy it— thesource
BF2142 CD-Key Begging Thread Turns Into Shock Site Prank and One-Day Ban
A guy just wanted a BF2142 CD-key — instead he got a shock site link and someone got a one-day ban for it.
In the Battlefield: 2142 sub-forum, user mr.N0Nam3 posted a shock-value thread title purely to grab attention, then asked if anyone had a spare, unactivated game key to trade or give away. Member 'thesource' replied with a disguised shock site link instead of a real key, prompting mr.N0Nam3 to call it out and get it removed, followed by admin Shifty. handing out a one-day suspension. A brand-new member chimed in afterward just to complain about shock sites. Small, petty exchange typical of the era's cheat/gaming forum culture — clickbait titles, key-begging, and quick moderator justice.
good, now that i have your attention, what do i have to do to get a key?— mr.N0Nam3
your banned now tyvm. no shock sites and btw im not stupid.— mr.N0Nam3
Shock sites make me cry.— superawesome
Merry Christmas Or Happy Holidays?
A holiday poll that broke, a smod raging against 'political correctness,' and eleven guys just saying Merry Christmas anyway.
A throwaway holiday-season thread in the Debate Hall where deX- tried to poll the forum on 'Merry Christmas' vs 'Happy Holidays' but the poll feature didn't work. Regulars and staff piled in mostly just to say Merry Christmas (with a few Happy Holidays and Merry Xmas variants), and smod ap3x used it as an excuse to grumble about political correctness. Low-stakes, festive, very typical late-2000s forum filler thread with the usual crew tossing around casual profanity and holiday cheer.
MERRY CHRISTMAS YOU CUNT!— inSpired
Merry Christmas. Fuck "political correctness." Where did your poll go?— ap3x
merry fucking christmas and have a nice day, asshole— slingblade
Windows. — the great OS poll of 2009
26 votes, one eternal question: XP or Windows 7?
A casual poll-and-chat thread in the Debate Hall asking members what version of Windows they ran, posted right as Windows 7 was fresh on the market. Replies split between XP loyalists defending its legacy, Vista haters, early Windows 7 adopters, and a few old-school holdouts still repping Windows 98. Nothing dramatic, just a laid-back tech-preference chat typical of the forum's General/Debate Hall culture, with regulars and a couple of later-banned members weighing in.
FUCKING WINDOWS 98— esahc26
XP was such an epic benchmark for microsoft. they killed it with vista... but i have to say it, windows 7 has replaced xp pro imo.— lulraep
Windows 98, cuz im old school like that?— deX-
What race turns you on?
Fkn0wned's Debate Hall tackles the tough questions: Italians, Latinas, or Parisian girls?
A casual, low-stakes 'debate' thread in the Debate Hall subforum where members traded preferences on nationalities/ethnicities they found attractive, mostly framed around girlfriends and hookups. It devolves into good-natured ribbing, a mini side-argument about French people between Emrys and AKULA, and the usual chorus of 'it's about the person, not the race' takes mixed with blunter one-liners. Pure early-2010s forum small talk — no real drama, just members hanging out and bantering.
Puerto Ricans and Italiansssss alL dayyyyy NUFFF SAIDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD— Mystik Supeme
No race turns me on.... it depends on the person.— AKULA
im turned on by cockasian girls ...Jokes... Just any hot bitch would do— aimshot120
TITS or LEGS/ASS
60 votes cast, and legs/ass won by a landslide — the great Fkn0wned body-part referendum of 2009.
A classic off-topic Debate Hall poll thread from October 2009, asking members to pick their preference between tits and legs/ass on 'the beautiful female.' It's pure lighthearted forum filler — the kind of thread that pads post counts and lets regulars crack jokes — with legs/ass winning decisively at nearly 72% of the vote. Regulars including vermiLLion, Kimmi, AKULA, and Slickz weighed in, mostly agreeing on legs/ass, with a few holdouts and the obligatory 'why not both' crowd.
My gf has both. I prefer legs/ass though.— vermiLLion
How can you like boobs? IMO they are skin bags XD— vermiLLion
Legs/Ass its where your dick spends most of its time. Gotta treat it well.— PaynE
RPG or FPS?
A 2009 poll pits WoW grinders against CS headshotters — spoiler, 'Both' wins in a landslide.
A lighthearted Debate Hall poll thread from November 2009 asking whether members prefer RPGs, FPS games, or both. Most posters landed on 'Both,' with a good-natured back-and-forth about grinding for gear versus pure reflex-based skill. It's classic low-stakes forum banter, mixing genuine game opinions with some era-typical crude jokes and one-liners, plus a couple of admins and long-time regulars chiming in.
RPG's suck cock.— xXHeistXx
RPG = LETZ GET GEAR N STATS K GUIS?????!!! AND LETZ GRINDF THESE MOBS FOR XPXPXPPX. FPS = Skill— xXHeistXx
WHY ISNT THERE A NEITHER lol— shwager
Funny fkn0wned website
Someone found a goofy easter egg lurking on fkn0wned.com's own IRC link — cue the ROFLs
A short, lighthearted 2007 thread in the Off-Topic > Links/Humor section where a Super Moderator shared a silly discovery involving the site's own irc.fkn0wned.com link. A handful of members chimed in with quick laughs and approval, with no real drama or depth — just a small, forgettable but charming moment of forum camaraderie. Notable mostly for prefeK, a very early member (Member No. 50), dropping by to co-sign the joke.
I was just messing around and found this http://irc.fkn0wned.com <-- Click it— DCLXVI
haha *ROFL* Thats just nice, nice find xD And thats on fkn0wned!— banak
Hahahahaha. Nice one.— prefeK
Caption This! Week 1 VOTE
Gametration's first-ever caption contest came down to a two-horse race between DCL and MuusiK^ — and someone cried foul over the tally.
This is the voting thread for the debut round of 'Caption This!', a lighthearted community game in Gametration.com's Site Related section where members captioned a picture and the forum voted on the best one. DCL edged out MuusiK^ in a close 59-vote poll, with Devlin1991, Fluffman, and |-noodle-| trailing behind. A SuperMod publicly questioned the legitimacy of the vote, joking that it should be limited to staff, sparking a bit of good-natured grumbling amid the congratulations. The thread was formally closed by moderator DCLXVI once voting time expired.
and you voted bunnyfuck funny? do a vote between staff or something.— NoNamE!
wow, i don't think really any of these are funny except dcl's— Industry
I'm loving MuusiK^ -'s one Priceless— lordofrum
The 'Real Way' to Get Money Easy and Fast
Ten pages deep, a member swore he made $30 in an hour — the thread that kept fkn0wned dreaming of easy cash.
This was a long-running Random Tuts thread on Fkn0wned.Com where a member claimed to have found a quick money-making method, kicking off ten pages of replies from curious and skeptical users. By the tail end shown here, the thread had mostly devolved into short one-line reactions and low-effort posts from newer members rather than substantive discussion. It's a snapshot of the classic 'get rich quick' tutorial thread that every mid-2000s forum had in its Off-Topic section.
got $30 in the first hour..

Me and my wife raged a hacked facebook
One member's Facebook prank spirals into a shocked, laughing 8-reply pile-on in the Raging subforum.
A short thread in the 'Raging' section where user neverl3ss posted a screenshot of a crude, explicit wall post made on someone's hacked Facebook account, framed as a joke by 'him and his wife.' The replies are quick, jokey reactions from other regulars mocking the NSFW content, laughing at the absurdity, and riffing on comments in the screenshot itself. It's a small, typical slice of the forum's 'raging' culture — pranking hacked or compromised social media accounts for laughs and posting the results for the community.
NOW WHERE THE FUCK IS THE NSFW LIKE WTF YOU CANT JUST POST THIS SHIT O_O WARN SOMEONE DAMNNN— Shwager
LMAO that guy who commented "First line" I give him +100000 Reputation for that reply.— SNK
neverl3ss, I'm sure your mama wouldn't approve of this post and it's gonna hurt my little baby sis's eyes, so I'm gonna have to unfriend you— 2PM
Mega-Thread: Bangbros
A 17-page relic of the forum's Porn Paradise section, still going strong at post #325.
This was a long-running megathread in the Porn Paradise > Images/Videos section, dedicated to sharing content from the Bangbros site. By the last page it had stretched to 17 pages and 325+ posts, mostly low-effort 'ty'/'thanks' replies from members bumping the thread to access the shared material. It's a good snapshot of the era's forum culture where megathreads served as informal content-sharing hubs, propped up by a steady stream of one-word gratitude posts from mostly low-post-count members.
Thank the lord for proxies.— XyHavix

Call of Duty: Black Ops announcement/hype thread
Before it even had a release date, fkn0wned was already arguing over Treyarch vs Infinity Ward and betting on Black Ops
In late March 2010, forum regular vermiLLion posted an early news roundup (sourced from gamerant/Tek9/MapModNews) revealing the reveal of Call of Duty: Black Ops — its Cold War setting, SAS missions, the Iranian embassy siege level, returning Nazi Zombies, and the return of PC dedicated servers after Modern Warfare 2's absence of them. The post included commentary favoring Treyarch over Infinity Ward for supporting co-op play and PC server infrastructure. A handful of members replied with short hype/skepticism about the November 2010 release window, mostly worrying the game would feel rushed.
Im so gonna buy this :D— zanderdanmark
November is just so soon. Better not suck ass.— Goodapollo
IF they rush it, then it will be terrible lets hope they dont make to many mistakes— ZeroTee
XXX Passes
A wall of stolen porn-site logins that ran on for six pages — the Fkn0wned Porn Paradise at its trashiest.
A long-running thread in the 18+ 'Porn Paradise' section where a super moderator posted a giant dump of username:password combos scraped for various adult websites, inviting members to try them. The thread stretched to six pages over roughly two months, with most replies being one-word 'thanks', 'nice', or bumps rather than discussion. It's a good snapshot of the era's throwaway access-sharing culture that filled the R18 corners of gaming forums like this one.
I tried a few and they worked.— DCLXVI
thanks!— Leech
bump— niceguy
What Would You Do With $10,000?
Fkn0wned's forum theorizes about instant riches — shops, university funds, and 'doubling it up'
A casual General Discussion hypothetical thread asking members what they'd do with a windfall of $10,000. Replies ranged from practical (saving for university, keeping it for emergencies) to entrepreneurial (opening a shop, investing to grow it), giving a glimpse of the community's mix of teens/young adults and its overlapping interest in Steam trading and item shops. Nothing dramatic — just a relaxed, low-stakes hangout thread typical of the site's General Public section.
New gaming stup (2500) and then save for my university— BizT
I would open a shop and earn more money.— Danny_US
Definitely save them up and try to invest them to double em up— walking^semen
Gaming PCs - Serious Discussion
Build it yourself or buy it? Fkn0wned's old guard weighs in on the eternal PC-building debate.
A casual, helpful thread in the General Discussion section where members traded advice on building versus buying a gaming PC. Regulars pointed newcomers toward pre-built vendors (Digital Storm, iBuyPower, CyberPower, Alienware) and tools like PCPartPicker, while others made the case that building your own rig was cheaper and more educational. Nothing dramatic here—just an ordinary slice of the forum's tech-help culture, with VIPs and staff (like Jeremy of the FkN Crew) chiming in alongside regular members.
Building the computer yourself is a lot cheaper than buying it from somebody company cuz essentially you pay for time and labor to build the PC— mint
www.pcpartpicker.com << basically you input what you want.. then they search the cheapest website where you can buy them.— Kaminari
Why not... amazon? , buy the pc piece by piece— Jony113
"The Pirate Bay - Away from Keyboard" documentary thread
Members watch the TPB documentary and muse about the future of piracy — plus classic 2013 sig spam and vouch trains.
A short discussion thread in Media Discussion where members chime in on the documentary 'The Pirate Bay: Away From Keyboard.' The tone is casual and appreciative, with a couple of members reflecting on the site's legacy and predicting a future of private trackers and darknet sites resistant to takedown. The replies are heavily padded with the era-typical forum furniture — elaborate custom signatures, panda-themed shoutouts, and long strings of trade vouches from the Gaming Market side of the site.
I watched the whole movie. It was interesting! And they have some nice colocation centers.— BU12TRAS
I feel like one day people will have access only to private torrent websites :/ Or something on the .onions website that cant really get taken down unless it's get as much publicity as tpb— デイブ
The thing with TPB is that it's not just a tracker, it pretty much represents the idea of freedom on the internet.— Mickey
I got banned from Xbox Live
13-year-old modder gets the Xbox Live hammer, asks the forum for a way back in
A young member (self-described as 13) posts that he got banned from Xbox Live for modding his 360 and asks for help getting unbanned, preemptively asking people not to just tell him to buy a new console or mock him for his age. Staff members hunterbrute224 and Shifty chime in early, with a quick joking suggestion about a new hard drive. It's a pretty typical low-stakes Off-Topic thread capturing the era's console-modding-ban culture and the forum's casual, teasing camaraderie.
i got banned from xbox live for modding my 360 its lame because im only 13 and dont got much of a job so wont be getting 1 for a while now.— adamdafoo
Easy, get a new hard drive— hunterbrute224
What is your stance on women and suffrage?
A random 2007 political hot take derails into instant mockery on a Counter-Strike forum's off-topic board.
A member with a low post count opened a half-baked political thread linking women's suffrage to Roe v. Wade, asking whether abortion would be legal if women had no political influence. The thread barely got off the ground before being mocked and redirected to the dedicated Debating subforum, with only a couple of members bothering to engage seriously. A fairly typical example of the kind of off-topic thread that popped up on a gaming/cheat forum whose members were mostly there for Counter-Strike scripting and Steam trading, not political theory.
HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH are you f'rrl?— Goodapollo
this should be posted here or on the debateS?— haha.1
RapidShare Premium Account Dump
Someone dumped a pile of RapidShare premium logins and the crew just shrugged it off
A November 2007 General Discussion post from member 'laptops' listing a batch of shared RapidShare premium account credentials for anyone to grab, with a throwaway 'off to work' sign-off. Replies are short and casual, with crew member Rockforce joking he's just relieved his own account wasn't among those posted, and admin Shifty chiming in briefly. Pretty typical low-stakes filesharing-era thread for the board's Off-Topic section.
CHANGE EM WHILE U CAN!!! of to work laterz!/!— laptops
Shit, as long as mine wasn't on here im good.— Rockforce
What is wrong with this pic?
A staff member offered a free Steam account to whoever spotted the glitch first — then a supervisor closed the thread in under 5 minutes flat.
A quick 'spot the difference/error' picture-puzzle thread started by staff member mr.N0Nam3, who offered a Steam account as a prize to the first non-staff member to find what was wrong with an image. blacknight00 jumped in almost immediately with a guess about mismatched suit coloring. The thread was short-lived, closed by supervisor HaSh only a few minutes after it started, per the archive's closure note.
i'll give a steam account to the first person who figures it out, non-staff.— mr.N0Nam3
The space between CEO and Tuxifed is white even though his suit is black.— blacknight00
Does anyone know how to put on album art?
A humble iTunes tech-support thread from 2007, preserved forever.
A member named jorskobe asks the General Discussion board for help adding album art to his music files, and gets a quick tip from Bucketface about iTunes' auto-fetch option. The thread continues with jorskobe reporting the art won't transfer to his Pocket PC, a nice little snapshot of mid-2000s portable device woes. Forum admin Shifty. drops in near the end, showing the mix of regular members and staff casually helping out with everyday tech questions.
Hey, Does anyone here know how to put on an album art on the music files?— jorskobe
On I-Tunes go into options and select "Automaticly get album art"— Bucketface
Interesting questions!
The chicken, the egg, and a Chinese brain transplant — General Discussion tackles the big questions.
A member named sorbazz kicks off a late-night philosophical detour from the usual cheat-scene chatter, posing a classic brain-transplant identity riddle and the chicken-or-egg question. A couple of low-post-count members wade in with earnest, oddly confident answers about memory storage and chicken biology, and things end with some good-natured mockery. It's a small, forgettable thread but a nice snapshot of the off-topic goofiness that filled the downtime between hack releases and drama on Fkn0wned.
Just out of curiosity. Are you retarded?— NicCuh
no matter wut ur beleaf may be the chicken deff came first cause an egg cant hacth without the sitter!!— mr.shhh
LOLCODE Appreciation Thread
A guy named Wankst0r tried to get the forum hyped about coding in meme-speak, HAI WORLD style.
A short-lived, lighthearted General Discussion thread from late 2007 where a member (already tagged 'Banned' by the time of this archive snapshot) shared the joke programming language LOLCODE, complete with a sample 'HAI WORLD' snippet. Forum veteran ballistic, a high-post '1000 Club' member, replied right after, though the reply content itself was mostly just his signature/profile block. Typical of the era's Off-Topic filler threads — low stakes, a bit of nerd humor, nothing dramatic.
who doesnt want to code in a language most of all already know? LOLCODE is there for you!— Wankst0r
HAI CAN HAS STDIO? VISIBLE "HAI WORLD!" KTHXBYE— Wankst0r
DubStepHEAVENZ
A co-manager dusted off an old Reason disk and dropped his homemade dubstep tracks on the forum.
In this January 2008 General Discussion thread, longtime co-manager 'Shifty' (posting under the alias Crim) shared a couple of self-produced dubstep tracks he'd uploaded to the Newgrounds Audio Portal, made using an old copy of Reason and a MIDI keyboard. He mentioned having several more tracks sitting on an old hard drive he might upload later. A couple of members chimed in briefly with quick approval before the thread trails off.
So yah, I found my old Reason disk. Plugged in my midi keyboard and uploaded some old projects into Reason.— Shifty
Sick beats.— Wares
