Music Section Introduced!
The day fkn0wned finally got a place to talk chords instead of cheats.
An admin announcement from ap3x rolling out a new 'Music -beta-' subforum under Art & Design, meant for music theory, self-composition, and general music talk. The reception was warm and low-key — a handful of regulars thanked staff for listening to a long-requested feature, with a bit of light debate over whether it belonged under Art & Design or deserved its own top-level forum. A minor but fondly-remembered quality-of-life update for the community.
Now get postin everyone.— Emrys
I'm glad that you've read the requests and made the section. :D— Pestilence
Music is art that's why it's there.— mystical1
Steam // Rapidshare Daily Give Away!
Free Steam keys and Rapidshare premium, twice a day, PST — first come first served.
A Minor Updates announcement from founder TuxifieD launching a recurring daily giveaway event, handing out Steam-related prizes and Rapidshare premium access at fixed times (9:00 AM and 3:00 PM PST). The thread ran alongside other site activity of the era — SOTW ('Screenshot/Signature of the Week') contests, a new Ventrilo server, and the forum's warn system update. Typical Fkn0wned energy: casual staff-run perks mixed with community contests and inside banter.
9:00 AM and 3:00 PM PST give aways— TuxifieD

Fkn0wned Official IRC Channel Announcement
The day fkn0wned got its own IRC channel and everybody was told to come idle.
Founder TuxifieD announced the launch of an official IRC channel for the fkn0wned community, hosted on irc.dal.net as #fkn0wned, with instructions for joining via GameSurge, the site's built-in Java IRC client, or mIRC. Member h4voCK responded enthusiastically, excited about the new hangout and asking if it could be used to organize scrims. It's a small, upbeat 'site update' style post capturing the community-building side of the forum rather than any drama.
We hope to see everyone come and idle... Thank you, COME IDLE!— TuxifieD
YES, we got an IRC! Finally! w00t! Can we organize scrims there?— h4voCK
Recruiting Recruiters & Advertisers for Fkn0wned
The site founder puts out a call for spammers and talent scouts ahead of a big client release.
This is a 2008 staff-recruitment post from Fkn0wned.com founder TuxifieD, seeking members to fill 'Recruiter' (finding graphic artists and coders) and 'Advertiser' (spreading the forum's name across other sites and YouTube) roles. The push was tied to an upcoming release of the site's cheat client, which was framed as bringing perks and private hacks to staff. It's a small snapshot of the site's growth-hustle era, with founder TuxifieD laying down expectations for dedication and an early reply from longtime member glish.
My hope is that this will bring together our community tighter than all others and I want to share the wealth— TuxifieD
If you think you can slack off in a position? You're very wrong....— TuxifieD
Amateur VIP Porn Section reopens
The infamous 'renamed jailbait section' announcement that says a lot about how fkn0wned actually ran.
A Minor Updates post from founder jhurl announces the reopening of the site's 'Amateur VIP Porn Section,' bluntly describing it as a rebrand of a previous section to dodge scrutiny, bundled into a $20 VIP membership sold alongside cheat access. Admin Skippy replies shortly after. The thread is short but stands as a stark, unfiltered artifact of the forum's more troubling side and how casually paid 'VIP' access mixed hacking tools with adult content.
The section is open again, its basically the jailbait section but renamed with a name that isnt seen as so bad.— jhurl
New Give Away Section! (announcement thread)
The day Fkn0wned rolled out a dedicated give-away section — and everyone just said 'awesome.'
A short Minor Updates announcement thread on Fkn0wned.com noting the launch of a new 'Give Away' section on the site. By page 4 of the thread, the only visible reply is a brief one-word reaction from member lragnarok11. The page mostly preserves site chrome and forum structure rather than substantial discussion, but it marks a small administrative milestone in the site's evolution around mid-2009.
awesome— lragnarok11
