Graphics Crew: Pink or Red?

The great color debate that decided the GFX Basement's identity — pink won in a landslide.

A lighthearted General Discussion poll asking whether the site's Graphics Crew (GFX Basement) team color should be pink or red. Pink dominated both recorded vote tallies by a wide margin, with members chiming in with jokes and one-liners rather than serious design arguments. A tangential joke thread about the '1K Club' rank (comparing members to Liberace) spilled into the conversation, giving it that classic off-topic, low-stakes forum banter feel.

Yea Purple is so much better, now I just need a updated avater.— DJSketch

For GFX crew I say pink— Futerix

WHENEVER I SEE 1K CLUB NOW I THINK OF LIBERACE, DISCUSS.— mr.N0Nam3

Post Your Favorite Demotivational Posters

A late-2009 image dump where the forum's mods and VIPs just spammed demotivational posters at each other for a while

A lighthearted General Discussion thread from December 2009 where members traded links to old-school 'demotivational poster' image macros, the meme format popular in that era. Started by moderator ap3x, it quickly pulled in other staff and VIP members who piled on with their own finds, including some era-typical crude and un-PC content common to the site's culture at the time. It's a low-stakes, pure-nostalgia thread rather than anything dramatic — just members hanging out and sharing links.

Wow ap3x way to steal my shit— PopTart

keep this shit goinggg— ///xcF

oh lawd...— skramguts

Phish Community Method Not Working

A member's Steam group-joining 'phishing' trick suddenly stops working — cue troubleshooting and a guide-writer's wounded pride.

A user reports that a community/group-joining technique he'd been using (linked to another thread's 'method') stopped functioning correctly after repeated use, with joined groups failing to appear on his friends list. Other members chime in with troubleshooting suggestions like restarting Steam or adding a friend first, while the original guide's author shows up a bit defensive that someone was using his method before crediting him. It's a low-stakes, everyday technical-support thread typical of the site's Off-Topic/General Discussion board, showing the casual cheat-adjacent tinkering culture of the forum.

Awww someone likes my guide <3. There's no limit on how many groups you can join or leave. Least not for me.— bobbafett07

Lolz, twas using it before u posted my friend. Its an awsome method though.— blacknight00

try adding someone before you join a group 8)— thesource

Best MW2 Knife Throw Ever!

A single lucky MW2 knife toss had the whole forum yelling "BULLSHIT" in unison.

A short, low-stakes hype thread from November 2009 where ap3x shared a clip of an unlikely Modern Warfare 2 knife-throw kill, prompting a cascade of disbelieving reactions from regulars. The replies are pure early-MW2-era forum banter — mock outrage, jokes about the victim's reaction, and a few members recalling similar flukes of their own. Nothing controversial, just a quick burst of communal 'no way' energy typical of the General Discussion section back then.

THAT'S BULLSHIT!— ap3x

Pussy. I can throw 600 miles and hit someone.— vermiLLion

How to Connect to the Fkn0wned IRC Server

The sticky nobody read: a step-by-step guide to the FkN IRC channel that everyone still messed up

A member named h4voCK wrote a beginner-friendly walkthrough for connecting to the Fkn0wned IRC server using mIRC or XChat, complete with SSL setup instructions, aimed at stopping the flood of members asking how to connect over MSN. It got stickied by a moderator despite sticky-fatigue on the board, and the replies turned into a mini tech-support thread with a member named slingblade struggling through connection errors, other members offering fixes, cracked software links, and BNC workarounds. Someone even noted the actual IRC channel was 'damn near deserted' once they finally got in — a small, telling moment about the community's fading activity.

I'm personally sick of how many people can't connect to the FkN IRC. It's not that hard.— h4voCK

even though it occurs to me that the fkn0wned channel is damn near deserted— slingblade

Remember, in a world of errors, Google is your best friend.— ap3x

Anti-Thanks Mod Exploit Callout

A noob tried to publicly expose a hide-content bug to an admin — and got clowned by the guy whose profile he called out

A brand-new member (m4ster, only 6 posts) posted a thread trying to point out a supposed exploit that let users view hidden 'thanks-locked' links without actually thanking the poster, name-dropping a specific member's profile as the example. That member turned out to be PaRaNoID himself, a veteran 1000-club poster, who along with staff regular hunterbrute224 and fellow veteran Paws brushed it off as a long-known, harmless quirk rather than a real bug. The thread was quickly marked closed and answered by PaRaNoID, ending in mild mockery of the OP for making a fuss over nothing.

erm its a known bug.. not really a bug tho— Paws

what a pointless thread seriously this is well known.....— hunterbrute224

its just a bug the admins will fix it— PaRaNoID

Need The Runescape Phisher Please

A guy just wants a RuneScape phishing tool, gets roasted, gets it anyway

Member paradoxizff posts a bare-bones request looking for a 'Runescape Phisher' tool, admitting he couldn't figure out the setup himself. He gets mocked by iamrag for thinking it would even work, but persists, and fellow member monopoly171 offers to try building one before dropping a link. A classic slice of the era's cheat/scene forum culture — low effort request, some ribbing, a quick fix, thread closed with a nod of approval from OmfgzATree.

A runescape phisher would fail. everyone knows the fags from jagex don't email you.— iamrag

I got a lot of people who believes in shit i say— paradoxizff

+1 for monopoly171 Lol, That site is win.— OmfgzATree

Possibly the Best Prank Call Ever

deX- shares a prank call clip and the thread immediately splits into 'lol win' vs 'that's just mean'

A quick General Discussion thread from December 2009 where member deX- linked a Break.com prank call video, calling it possibly the best one ever made. The replies were short and split down the middle — some members found it hilarious, while others felt the target of the prank was too poor to be a fair mark for the joke, sparking a brief little moral debate over what makes a prank funny versus cruel. Classic low-stakes forum banter typical of the era.

the sad thing about that is that doing it to someone as poor as that person is just cruel. now i could understand doing it to say like a middle class person, thatd be funny as shit— Emrys

WOW This is fucking mean....— PopTart

Thats the whole point!— deX-

Alternative Ways to Get High

A brand-new member's terrible idea for a thread somehow got staff replies too.

A newly registered member, fresh off getting caught trying an infamous marijuana-growing thread, proposed a thread crowdsourcing legal or household ways to get high. Staff and older members chimed in half-jokingly, tossing out household-item suggestions and dismissing them as impractical, with someone else derailing into nutmeg. It's a classic mid-2000s off-topic forum thread: a bad idea proposed earnestly by a noob, met with dry sarcasm from regulars and staff rather than any real guidance.

I was thinking that it would be a cool /good idea to maybe start a thread listing alternative ways to get high.— ROY4LTYx

Spray paint is too expensive. Might as well buy weed.— ROY4LTYx

nutmeg!— ballistic

Guy's Desktop Files Vanish After Reboot

One reboot, one Windows update, and asshoel50's whole desktop just... gone.

A member named asshoel50 posts in a panic after rebooting his PC and finding every file on his desktop missing, asking if there's any way to recover them. Fellow members chime in with suggestions ranging from System Restore to checking desktop display settings, but a couple of posters speculate he'd been hit by a trojan and warn the files might be unrecoverable. A small, mundane tech-support thread typical of the forum's Off-Topic/General Discussion section, showing the community's casual back-and-forth troubleshooting style.

all files on my desktop were gone. is there a way to restore this cause i had some importan files on it :/— asshoel50

your trojanned, resotore with windows disk— ballistic

id say trojaned and your not going to get your important files back if you were. Sry Bud.. Better Luck next time...— darkfin2323

Awesome or What? (the TF2-showed-up-on-every-account mystery)

Everyone's Steam account mysteriously had TF2 — turns out it was just a free week, mods closed it in minutes.

A member named gunhater noticed Team Fortress 2 appearing on freshly made Steam accounts and asked the forum if it was a glitch. A few regulars chimed in with half-serious theories (preload, a Half-Life-style unlock quirk) before staff member hoOkz pointed out it was simply a free promotional week for TF2 and locked the thread as solved. Pure small-talk filler thread, notable mostly for the quick, low-drama mod close and the casual back-and-forth typical of the General Discussion board.

actually, i think its like half life, once you install it, it comes on all your accounts. but you cant play it unless u have it on that account. AMIRITE?— [VIP] ojj321

TF2 is a free week so all steams will have it— [FkN] hoOkz

Team Fortress 2 is free for this week /solved— [FkN] hoOkz

iPod Games - Fkn0wned.Com

A guy with a fancy new iPod Nano just wanted free Snake, and the thread that followed is pure 2007 internet time-capsule energy.

A member who'd just bought a 3rd-gen iPod Nano asked whether iTunes games could be pirated or otherwise bypassed instead of paying $5 a pop, grumbling about Apple pricing. Replies were short and casual — one classic sarcastic 'google it' response, one guy plugging Rockbox as a way to play games like Snake and Doom on his iPod, and another vaguely pointing toward 'patching' the device. Low-effort, low-drama, everyday General Discussion filler typical of the era's off-topic banter.

does anyone know if its possible to download the games on bittorrent or something and make them work with itunes?— dainbramaged

www.google.com =]— jcomp6

i use rockbox on my ipod i can play snake, doom, copter game .....— bragamuffin

The 'Leaked JWoww Nudes' Reply-to-Unhide Thread

21 pages of guys typing 'unhide' for a Jersey Shore pic that was never actually there to see.

A classic forum bait thread from January 2011: [RnR] TuxifieD posted a supposed leaked nude of Jersey Shore's Jenni 'JWoww' Farley behind a reply-gated 'Hidden Content' spoiler, a well-worn trick to farm registrations and post counts. Dozens of brand-new accounts (many one-post wonders who signed up that same day) piled in with one-word replies like 'unhide' and 'lemme see it,' while a few regulars stopped by for the joke. It ran to 21 pages, making it one of the forum's classic engagement-bait threads rather than an actual nude leak.

WHERE THE FUCK IS MY VIP.— [VIP] raw

I call bullshit— DickFor

I would like to see. bet its not her.— [email protected]

"I think my computer got hacked" - net send scare thread

A random 'HI MATT!' popup sends a member into a panic — was it a hacker, a RAT, or just a buddy with net send?

A member named abstract1337 panics after a message reading 'HI MATT!' pops up on his screen, prompting a back-and-forth with the mystery sender before he yanks the internet and reboots. Regulars and staff (Goodapollo, laptops, Shifty) chime in with theories ranging from a prank via net send over his open wireless network to an actual RAT (Remote Administration Tool) infection, with advice to get antivirus and change passwords from a clean machine. It's a classic slice of mid-2000s forum tech-support culture — half genuine troubleshooting, half everyone assuming it was just a friend messing with him.

At 2:10 today a text message popped up that said "HI MATT!" ... HOW DID THIS PERSON GET INTO MY COMPUTER AND CAN I FIND OUT WHO DID IT???!!!!!— abstract1337

Yeah that could be, most likely someone that you know? just gankin your chain— Goodapollo

I think.. Someone is using a RAT on you (Remote Administration Tool)... i also suggest you change your passwords, as the guy already has them, or will get them soon.— laptops

Merry Christmas From Me! (2007)

The one time the whole fkn0wned crew put down the cheats and just said Merry Christmas.

A short, warm holiday thread from Christmas Eve 2007 where Media Crew member Sammo wished the community a merry Christmas before going inactive for the week, inviting others to post their own holiday messages. A handful of staff and media crew regulars (toby., Goodapollo, Industry) dropped in with quick well-wishes and inside-joke replies. It's a low-key, feel-good thread rather than a drama or cheat-related one — just a snapshot of the site's community taking a break together.

Merry Christmas Everybody. Please place your christmas message in this thread for everyone!— Sammo

merry christmas sammo ^^.— toby.

<3— Goodapollo

Xbox PC

Someone crammed an Xbox into a PC case and the forum lost it — 'crazy shit' indeed.

A short, feel-good General Discussion thread from December 2009 where vermiLLion shared what appears to have been a video or build showcasing an Xbox-into-PC case mod. Regulars PopTart and kubaxplx chimed in with quick approval, and mcm admitted to watching the whole thing and getting inspired to try case modding himself. A tiny, wholesome side-thread from the forum's console/hardware chatter, notable mainly for the mix of staff and VIP members casually hanging out.

Oh shit thats pretty amazing.— PopTart

crazy shit— kubaxplx

Lol, watched the whole thing. Pretty cool, I wanna mod my case as well sometime soon.— mcm

Help Get Fkn0wned Back on Top! (Voting Drive Thread)

The one where staff begged members to proxy-vote the site back up the rankings

A long-running (8-page) General Discussion thread where Fkn0wned members and staff rallied the community to vote for the site, apparently in some kind of top-sites/gaming portal ranking contest, trying to reclaim lost ground after falling behind competitors. Co-Manager Shifty and other veterans repeatedly bumped the thread urging everyone to vote, with talk of using proxies to get around vote limits. It's a snapshot of forum community-building culture circa 2007-2008, complete with casual crude banter and a random tangent about a mysterious 'Gold Member' banner.

we are down by 3 haha.— blacknight00

bump vote everyone.— Shifty

EVERYONE VOTE! USE PROXYS DO WHAT IT TAKES— Shifty

[Movie] Disney's A Christmas Carol

Jim Carrey's 3D Christmas Carol gets the fkn0wned jury treatment — verdict: split down the middle

A short, cozy little holiday-season thread from December 2009 where lam3r, a longtime [FkN] Crew member, kicks off a poll asking what people thought of the Disney/Jim Carrey 'A Christmas Carol' film. A handful of regulars weigh in with quick takes ranging from praise for the animation to dismissing it as a kids' movie, and the attached poll ends in a perfect three-way tie between 'awesome,' 'OK,' and 'sucked.' Nothing dramatic — just a low-key, wholesome slice of everyday off-topic chatter between members.

I thought Jim Carey and Disney did an amazing job. The animation was great as was the acting. I would definitely give that movie 9/10— lam3r

I heard it was shit, but not sure if it was the same movie— JuMx

Isn't that movie for like 7-year-olds or something?— ap3x

Bitgamer Invites!

One member's got 8 golden Bitgamer invites to give away — first come, first served, and they vanish in minutes

A quick, friendly giveaway thread from April 2009 where member Cortez7 offers a handful of invite codes to the private tracker Bitgamer, asking interested members to PM their email. The invites go fast, with Cortez7 updating the thread as they run out, and a few regulars drop by to say thanks. It's a small, wholesome slice of the old private-tracker invite culture that was common on forums like this one, capped off with a locked thread once supplies ran dry.

I only have 8 so hurry! :D— Cortez7

They're going like warm pie.. Because everyone likes Warm Pie, don't we guys?— Cortez7

Golden Torrents don't count towards your Download!— Cortez7

Ventrilo Server Back Up

PopTart relaunches the [FkN] Vent server... and almost nobody shows up

A short, mundane December 2009 admin announcement from PopTart letting members know the community's Ventrilo voice server was restored on a new host after provider issues, limited to 20 slots until he could afford more. The thread is a small, quietly funny snapshot of community life: staff banter about how empty the server usually is, with one lone member cheerfully claiming to be sitting in it alone.

about fuckin' time.— ap3x

lmfao there no one in there =/— shwager

yea i know nobody comes :(— PopTart

"For Those Who Don't Know" — Staff Rank Explainer

A supervisor breaks down fkn0wned's staff hierarchy, and immediately gets called out over a bogus warn.

A supervisor (posting as mr.N0Nam3 / later NoNamE!) lays out the site's staff ranking system for confused members, from CEO/Root Admin down to the '1K' 1000-post club, nicknamed 'our cheerleaders.' It reads as a recurring FAQ-style post explaining forum hierarchy. The thread quickly turns mildly petty when member sammo replies mostly to gripe about a warning he received for posting in the rants section, and another member (Industry) asks a genuine follow-up about the admin vs. super-moderator distinction. Small, everyday slice of forum bureaucracy and the minor status squabbles that came with it.

CEO - Root Admin Manager - Admin Co-Manager - Admin Supervisor - Super Moderator Staff - Moderator 1K - Our Cheerleaders.— mr.N0Nam3

Ok, I knew this but im replying cause you gave me a warn for 2 posts in the rants section, wtf?— sammo

whats the difference between admin and smod?— Industry

So I was just chilling at the mall, till some douche bag planted a bomb

A mall bomb scare breaks live in General Discussion while regulars ask for news that hasn't even been written yet.

A thread in General Discussion where a member recounts a bomb scare at a mall, sparking quick back-and-forth about whether it was a real attempt or a false alarm. Regulars like kudi and PopTart chime in asking for more details and news links, with PopTart (an admin) noting the event had just happened within the hour. Jeremy Lin adds an unrelated aside about America being 'fucked up.' It's a snapshot of the forum's casual, real-time chatter culture outside of its usual cheats-and-hacking focus.

More a failed attempt rather than a false alarm, or at least that's what it seems like— NigelStrawberry

It just happened within the hour, doubt there is any news stories yet.— PopTart

America is fucked up.— Jeremy Lin

How not to get your ass kicked by the police!

NIX drops a Chris Rock clip and the thread turns into a one-liner appreciation society

A quick, low-effort General Discussion post from NIX sharing an old YouTube clip of Chris Rock's famous 'how not to get your ass kicked by the police' bit. The replies are short and jokey, with regulars and staff (Kimmi, ap3x, marz, lulraep, shwager) chiming in with quips rather than debate. It's a snapshot of the forum's casual, meme-sharing side rather than any drama or scene business.

Chris Rock is the definition of awesome when you search for it in the dictionary.— Kimmi

Get a white friend.— ap3x

All Time Greatest FkN Quotes

Members dug up the forum's funniest, dumbest, and most cringe-worthy one-liners for posterity

A nostalgia thread in Off-Topic/General Discussion where members collected and re-posted memorable quotes from the FkN0wned community — shoutbox one-liners, IM logs, and forum zingers. The tone is casual and joke-heavy, heavy on early-2010s internet forum humor including some crude and offensive jokes typical of the era. A few posts also touch on site drama, like someone calling out another site for stealing an FkN image.

You can't even type properly, if you ever make a hack the menu will say. "oleis hcak"— mr.N0Nam3

Rofl Subzero/imm0rtal is paying me $50/week to stay on his site— c0ke

New Rebecca Black song?

Zanderdanmark shares a new Rebecca Black song, gets instantly told it's already old news, self-locks the thread in under a minute

A quick, low-stakes General Discussion thread from July 2011 where member zanderdanmark posted a link to a new Rebecca Black song, only for two other members (OJJ and 'Justin Bieber') to reply almost instantly saying it had already been posted. Zanderdanmark then closed his own thread as a moderator seconds later. A tiny, mundane slice of forum life that captures the fast-paced, meme-heavy, nothing-serious vibe of the board's off-topic chatter.

Damn it sucks.— [FkN] zanderdanmark

Already posted— [VIP] OJJ

has been posted before :)— [1K] Justin Bieber

Game Conn - Fkn0wned.com

A rival site dangles a $500 giveaway to poach members — and gets roasted for it.

A member with a fresh, low post count drops in to advertise 'Gameconn.net,' a new community forum, hyping cash and gift card prizes to lure people to register and even take on moderator roles. The pitch reads like classic forum spam/cross-promotion of the era. A veteran uploader clowns the offer by 'offering' to moderate for $500 flat, and another member just asks what the site is even about, unconvinced. Thread fizzles out after three replies with no real traction.

Register for a chance to win $500 and 5X $50 giftcards for best buy!— swat0880

pay me $500 US i will moderate/manage your forum. day to day.— KZA

what is this site revolving? is it similar to this? is it a tut site?— irishash

Remote-upload Rapidshare Trouble

sammo can't get RapidShare remote-upload to work, and the thread mostly just roasts him for it

A member named sammo asks for help with RapidShare's remote-upload feature, which kept telling him the URL was invalid despite pasting working links from warez-bb. Fellow members poke fun at his troubleshooting attempts and question whose premium account he was even using, while staffer Don Ruski (Peski) gets called out by name and jokingly plays along. A pretty ordinary tech-support gripe thread that turns into some light ribbing, typical of the forum's off-topic banter.

rapidshare.com isn't a valid url. Anybody know what im doing.— sammo

also your RS premium is goneski's ??— jcomp6

You tried to say Peski?— Don Ruski

Jay-Z ft. Hudson - 'Forever Young' music share

Admin ZoaQ drops a Jay-Z track and the thread just... agrees.

A short, low-key General Discussion thread where forum admin ZoaQ shares the Jay-Z ft. Hudson track 'Forever Young', calling it worth a listen. A couple of members chime in with brief agreement, including VIP DJSketch and regular jonneh28, before the thread fizzles out. Nothing dramatic — just a snapshot of everyday music-sharing chatter typical of the forum's General Discussion board.

just wanted to share the song thinks its /win :p— ZoaQ

Agreed, good stuff for real.— DJSketch

I listened to this about a week nonstop— jonneh28

Suck My Dick 7/11

A thread about scamming free stuff from 7-Eleven turns into a coupon-logic debate

A General Discussion thread, crudely titled after 7-Eleven, centers on members discussing social engineering tactics and coupon exploits to get free items from the convenience store chain. Regular Puree and forum veteran Nick weigh in on whether such tricks count as social engineering or are 'completely legal,' with Nick shutting down a coupon reuse idea as dead on arrival. Typical low-stakes, mundane hustle talk that filled out the site's general boards between the bigger cheat/hacking discussions.

All SE'ing is the same. Call. Say XYZ doesn't work. Work around YXZ. Get free shit.— silentr0ck

No Se'ing at all. Completely legal.— Nick

Nope, once used the coupon is dead Forever— Nick

Anthem celebrating Contadors Tour de France-win

Wrong national anthem plays for the Tour de France winner — cue five-minute forum roast.

Admin ZoaQ posted a short, mildly patriotic news bit about a 2009 broadcast mishap where Tour de France organizers played the Danish anthem instead of Spain's for winner Alberto Contador, linking a Danish TV2 clip. The thread barely got going before it fizzled into a broken video link, a quick fix, and a couple of dismissive one-liners about Contador's appearance. Classic low-stakes off-topic filler typical of the General Discussion board rather than any real drama.

The Tour de France organizers, A.S.O. love Denmark :3 <3— ZoaQ

meh they both looks like fagots or 3 idr.— Captainplanet

However, there is something wrong with that guy, his face, how he acts. Fail.— the unnamed

Favorite Shoe Brand?

Nike, Vans, or Uggs for style — Fkn0wned settles the great sneaker debate of December 2009

A lighthearted off-topic thread in General Discussion where PopTart asked members what shoes they preferred, and a good chunk of the community's regulars weighed in with their brand loyalties. Nike and Vans dominated the responses, with shoutouts to Adidas, DC, Osiris, Etnies, and even Uggs. Nothing dramatic here — just a casual, mundane hangout thread showing the human, everyday side of a forum better known for CS hacks and warez.

mine is NIKE because its the only that i can fit into :p :p— PopTart

Is this even a competition? For me, it has to be either Etnies, Nike, Ugg, or Osiris.— h4voCK

Any way to skip closed ports?

A guy tries to dodge his work firewall and the forum shrugs back at him

A member named Kane asks if there's a way to get around ports blocked by his workplace's network admins so he can run a program at work, and whether he'd get caught doing it. Supervisor Janza suggests just switching to a different port, and hunterbrute224 chimes in about using port forwarding for hosting stuff on his own router at home. Pretty mundane, low-stakes tech-help thread typical of the forum's General Discussion section.

Is there any way I can connect to ports even their closed? Any way around?— kanetheheatsink

Just a question, why can't you just use a different port?— Janza

I use port forwarding to host shit on my router— hunterbrute224

Music Torrents

Demonoid's dead — where do you get your tunes now?

A short, casual January 2008 thread in General Discussion where a member asks for good music torrent sites after Demonoid went down. Several regulars chime in with their go-to sites of the era (isoHunt, Mininova, The Pirate Bay, btjunkie, torrentz, and staff member Arcade dropping what.cd and waffles.fm), with some good-natured ribbing about torrent-hunting skills along the way. Nothing dramatic, just a snapshot of how people found music before streaming took over.

LoL me and kza talking

Founder TuxifieD pastes a rambling MSN chat with KZA about Buddha, diabetes, and nothing at all — pure 2009 forum filler.

Site founder TuxifieD posts a copy-pasted instant-messenger conversation with a member called KZA, mostly rapid-fire 'LOL'/'LMAO' exchanges that spiral into a nonsensical riff on Buddhism and diabetes before dissolving into keyboard mashing. It's a low-effort, goofy off-topic post typical of General Discussion filler threads, shared just for laughs rather than any real subject. One other member, Puree, chimes in briefly. The thread captures the casual, joke-around culture of the board rather than anything about cheats or gaming.

yeah I know we have really long convos that barely get any point across lmao but maybe one of you guys will lawl— TuxifieD

Favorite Food?

Sushi vs. pizza vs. lasagne — fkn0wned settles the eternal food debate, one-liner at a time.

A light, off-topic General Discussion thread from late December 2009 where forum regulars traded their favorite foods. Nothing deep here — just small talk between members, ranging from sushi and lasagne to pizza and spaghetti, plus one deadpan joke answer. A nice little snapshot of the community's casual, low-stakes side away from the hacking and warez talk.

pizza rapes all kind of food, no doubts. Dont even try.— kubaxplx

Staff Emails — The Official Verified Contact List

The stickied list every member checked before trusting a DM: 'if their email isn't here, block them.'

A locked, pinned reference thread from Fkn0wned's admin team listing verified staff contact emails, posted so members could confirm they were really talking to an admin, mod, or crew member and not an impersonator. Maintained by [FkN] PopTart with an ongoing changelog stretching from August 2010 into mid-2011, tracking staff additions, removals, and role changes over that year. The update log itself is a quiet timeline of the site's internal churn — mods coming and going, roles shuffled, a 'Founder' title handed out, and a 'massive update' by NIX in July 2011.</br>

Staff members will not ask for your passwords or account credentials. If someone messages your claiming to be a staff member and their email is not on this list, please block them.— [FkN] PopTart

Made my love Founder— [FkN] PopTart

A Complete List of What Drugs Show Up in a Piss Test?

A CS:S kid asks the forum to crowdsource a drug test cheat sheet — the internet answers, obviously.

A member named MeTaLn2 asked for a rundown of what substances (from meth and weed to prescription pills like Adderall and Oxycontin) actually show up on a standard drug test, worried about a parent-administered test. Fellow off-topic regulars chimed in with links, personal anecdotes about their own testing experiences, and the usual mix of jokes and half-informed advice typical of a mid-2000s gaming forum's General Discussion section. It's a snapshot of the off-topic chatter that filled the space between cheat releases — teenagers talking about real-life problems in between CS:S threads.

lol piss tests how bout piss in ur bosses face? XD— RecoileZ

thanks<3— MeTaLn2

9/10 Top Posters Are Banned...

A thread cataloguing the site's own purge turns into a full-blown tC vs Fkn0wned rivalry flare-up.

A general discussion thread pointing out that most of the forum's top posters had been banned spirals into a rehash of old beef between Fkn0wned and a rival community called thec0re (tC). A veteran uploader chimes in dismissively, while a low-post-count account claiming to represent tC leadership shows up to declare the 'war' long over and disavow any current tC members stirring drama on Fkn0wned. The tone is classic mid-2000s forum turf-war posturing, laced with insults and bravado.

All this 'war' between tC and Fkn finished ages ago, the only people causing more conflict are the noobs from my forum that still can't get enough of fkn.— thec0re

You may ban my account if it hurts your feelings.— thec0re

Okay. ill prove it. there nubs. there. gg.— KZA

"doing c0ke first time tonight =)" — the classic Off-Topic overshare thread

A member announces he's about to try cocaine and the forum reacts exactly how you'd expect.

A late-page continuation of an Off-Topic thread where a member shares (with a winking emoticon) that he's trying cocaine for the first time, prompting a mix of deadpan jokes, mild concern, and other members casually admitting their own drug use. Staff/mod Panda pops in with dry one-liners, and regular MeTaLn2 nonchalantly says he's already done it several times. Typical mid-2000s gaming-forum Off-Topic energy: shock-value confessional post, low-stakes ribbing, no real drama or intervention, just forum banter around a taboo topic.

What's up with Niggorex?

A one-liner asking about a missing member turns into a two-post joke before a mod nukes the whole thread as 'spam fest.'

A member named Chazze posted a quick, curious question asking why a user called Niggorex seemed to be gone or erroring out on the site. Supervisor mr.N0Nam3 replied with a dismissive joke about the person's father, prompting a sarcastic 'that's really sad' response from Chazze. The thread never developed beyond that exchange before staff (Shifty.) closed it, logging the reason as 'spam fest' — a typical fate for short, low-content curiosity threads on this board.

DB Error, or what the phuck if someone knows?— Chazze

his daddy never loved him.— mr.N0Nam3

Oh really? That is really, really, really sad.... :<— Chazze

The Funny .gif Thread (56k Warning)

A decade-old dump of dead photobucket and tinypic links — the internet's original meme thread, in fossil form

A lighthearted General Discussion thread started by founder TuxifieD inviting members to post funny gifs to spice up forum replies, with a light rule against gore or low-effort posts. Regulars including Kimmi, f0wh, shwager, and a few newer members chimed in with batches of gifs and images (nearly all links now dead, hosted on old sites like Photobucket, TinyPic, and FunnyJunk). It's a classic slice of early-2010s forum culture — casual, meme-driven, and mildly flirty in the replies, with a small callback joke about Tux 'looking at Kathleen.'

Lets post some funny gifs that can spice up our replies in threads. Dont post shitty ones please.... make sure they are funny. No gore shit.— TuxifieD

lmao, its tux looking at Kathleen =O— shwager

does any one know (iPod/iTouch MP4 converter chat)

A guy just wants free MP4s for his iTouch, and half the forum shows up with their favorite cracked converter

A low-stakes 2008 General Discussion thread where user Famousss asks for free MP4 videos and a cracked YouTube-to-MP4 converter for his iPod Touch. Several regulars and a staff member chime in with their go-to tools of the era (bit torrent searches, PSP-oriented converters, Videora, Frostwire/Limewire), making it a quick snapshot of pre-smartphone media-hoarding culture on the site. Nothing dramatic happened — just a casual, helpful exchange typical of the forum's Off-Topic section.

yer i wana put some vids on to my touch thanks F— Famousss

I have an mp4 converter that i use for my psp... works great— Scratch

Locked Out: The Great MSN Password Recovery Plea

One member locked himself out of MSN Messenger and begged the forum for a way back in — staff wasn't fully buying it.

A member named jacal posted in General Discussion asking for help recovering a forgotten MSN Messenger password after also losing the answer to his security question. He asked whether any tool existed to pull the password from local files or crack it if stored as MD5, explicitly disclaiming interest in 'bruteforce' programs. Staff member Scratch pushed back with a basic troubleshooting question about the 'Remember my password' setting, and the exchange continued with jacal insisting there must be some file-recovery tool. A fairly mundane tech-help thread typical of the era's MSN/account-recovery chatter on cheat-scene forums.

i know im dumb is there a program out there that can find it??— jacal

did you select "Remember my password" on msn messenger? Otherwise you can't recover it.— Scratch

but isn't there a program that goes back through the files or something that gets the password??— jacal

Bio-Hacks

A member noticed something weird on the site — and got quietly pointed somewhere else

A short, low-key thread in General Discussion where a member named 'x3.' asked what had happened to the site after seeing some kind of message pop up, framing it half-jokingly as a warning that an 'attack' would backfire on the staff. Forum regular Goodapollo, a well-known [1K] 1000 Club member, brushed it off and redirected the poster to another thread for the real explanation. The exchange wraps up quickly and cordially, with x3. thanking him for the pointer — a tiny, mundane slice of forum life rather than any real drama.

What have you guys done to the site, it came up with a message from you. Attack ftw, I have heard rumours this will very much bounce back on you as a friendly warning.— x3.

Look around a little more.— Goodapollo

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction downs.— x3.

Is it snowing?

A casual weather chit-chat thread that somehow got the whole globe reporting in — Germany, Australia, Sweden, and more.

A lighthearted small-talk thread in the General Discussion section where members compared weather conditions in their home countries around Christmas 2007. Don Ruski kicked it off complaining about weak German snowfall and his plans to head to Russia for 'proper' snow, and other members from Australia, Sweden, and elsewhere chimed in with their own local conditions. Nothing dramatic — just a snapshot of the community's off-topic, everyday banter with staff and regulars mixing in.

FUCK NO!!!! Australia is around 38 degrees celcius in other words FUCKING HOT!!— Olie22

Already been snowing in Sweden for like three days straight in like early December. But it ain't snowing when it's supposed to.— The Moose

Inspiring Piece

A Don Ruski copypasta manifesto about the 'underbelly of the internet' — years before Anonymous made it famous.

Don Ruski reposted a piece he'd dug up from an old closed FkN thread (originally from ShoutWire), a grandiose manifesto-style copypasta about internet outlaws, freedom, and a coming 'war fought online.' It reads today as an eerily early echo of the rhetoric that would later surround Anonymous and similar movements. Another member, jcomp6, immediately clocked it as a thread necro/repost with a joking 'nice grave digg.' Short thread, mostly just the one big post getting shared and acknowledged.

In case you missed the signposts, you have now entered the bad part of the internet.— Don Ruski

The next world war will be fought online.— Don Ruski

lol nice grave digg =]— jcomp6

IM BACK!! (page 2)

A dramatic 'I'm back' announcement thread turns into a pile-on over a months-old bump.

This is the tail end of a General Discussion thread where a returning member's 'I'm back!!' announcement got called out as attention-seeking for reviving an old topic. Sammo and Paws pile on the original poster ('The Blue'), with some light mockery over word-count in the back-and-forth. Pretty low-stakes forum drama, typical of the era's off-topic bickering.

This guy's a prick he bumps his old topic from months ago the attention seeking wanker.— Sammo

@ The Blue, while he used like 4 words to diss u, you used like a whole paragraph of junk.— Paws

The Hitchhiker's Guide To Murder

slingblade drops a cryptic video link, gets one reply, and even he's not sure why he posted it

A short, almost throwaway thread in General Discussion where longtime member slingblade shared a video titled something like 'The Hitchhiker's Guide to Murder', clearly expecting laughs. It flopped quietly for a day until VIP member retsnomlc chimed in with a lone '42' reference, prompting slingblade to admit the video had basically nothing to do with the actual Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy beyond the name. A tiny, quintessential filler thread from the forum's slower holiday period, right around Christmas 2009.

get outa my mind! haha!!— slingblade

42— retsnomlc

ok, i dont think anything in this video had anything to do with hitchhiker's guide to the halaxy in it, other than the similarity in the name— slingblade

RS speeds

A bunch of dudes bragging about their internet speeds in 2008 — welcome to the golden age of broadband envy.

A casual General Discussion thread started by Don Ruski asking members to share their minimum and maximum RapidShare (RS) download/upload speeds, referencing an older thread on the same topic from way back. Members chimed in comparing their connection speeds down to the kilobyte, a mundane but very of-its-era snapshot of pre-broadband-ubiquity internet life. Nothing dramatic happened — just regulars swapping numbers and reacting to each other's stats.

HOLY FUCK I get 310 max, maybe 100 min.— banak

I have a 4MG connection.— laptops

Phishing hoster

Someone shares a 'great hoster for phishing websites' and the thread just says thanks

A member posts a link to a web hosting service they claim was good for hosting phishing pages, noting it stayed up for months before takedown. A handful of regulars reply with quick thanks or a simple 'unhide' to reveal the hidden registration info, with little further discussion. It's a small, low-drama utility-sharing thread typical of the forum's gray-hat underbelly circa 2009.

Tis a great hoster for phishing websites. You can have it up for months before they take it down.— iamrag

thanks, this site is actually pretty sweet— lamer12
