JUSTiiN's Phished Steam Account Shop
A member sets up shop selling phished Steam accounts by the digit-count — and the forum's own vouch system backs him up.
In the Market Place section, member JUSTiiNCREDiiBLE advertises a batch of compromised Steam accounts (bundled with Counter-Strike 1.6/CSS) priced by how short the account's digit ID was, taking PayPal with a scripted 'no dispute' note buyers had to include. The thread is a classic slow-burn sales post: an initial pitch, a vouch from a trusted trader, several bumps over a few weeks, and a newcomer asking how to buy who gets redirected to the forum's 100-post rule before selling was allowed. It's a small, mundane slice of the site's account-trading economy rather than a dramatic event, but a clear time capsule of how that scene operated day-to-day.
I am selling some of my phished steam accounts which i have had for a few months now— JUSTiiNCREDiiBLE

Buying a Fake @blizzard.com Email for WoW Phishing
Kid wants to pay someone to fake an @blizzard.com address — mods smell a WoW phishing scheme instantly
A member offered to pay someone to craft a custom email address ending in 'blizzard.com', which forum regulars quickly clued into as a likely attempt to phish World of Warcraft accounts. A [FkN] Crew member pointed out this could be done for free with an existing tutorial (used legitimately for fkn0wned.com email suffixes) rather than paying anyone, while another member correctly called out the real motive. The thread was closed by staff once the point was made that no payment was necessary and the intent was suspect.

Hes trying to phish WOW accs ;)— Unbeliveable
I gave him an answer and he can make this by himself without reason to pay someone. /closed— vermiLLion
j00's Steam Shop
A guy sold off phished Steam accounts for as little as $3 a pop — PayPal only, buyer beware.
A Market Place classified thread where user j00j07 listed several Steam accounts for sale, openly noting most were phished but 'safe.' Over the course of a week the prices got repeatedly slashed and bumped as items sold, with the seller insisting on PayPal and buyer-goes-first terms (except for staff). A few members expressed interest via MSN or vouched for the transaction, giving a small glimpse of how casual account trading was in this corner of the forum.
Most of these accounts are phished, but they are safe .— j00j07
Awesome!, nice guy A+!— tylerztz67
Added you on MSN, talk there.— zeksta
Selling 4 Digit Steam Account
A low-digit Steam account sells in minutes flat on the Fkn0wned market — back when a '4 digit' account was serious bragging rights.
A quick Market Place listing from December 2009 where member Esk0 offered up a coveted low-numbered ('4 digit') Steam account, complete with CS and CS:S, for PayPal only. It sold within minutes, prompting a couple of members to ask about pricing on his remaining 6/7/8 digit accounts. A snapshot of the era's account-trading culture and the forum's 100-post minimum rule for market threads.

Steam Shop by Rock Superstar
The forum's resident Steam account dealer, taking PayPal only, no trades — and the receipts to prove he was legit.
A Market Place storefront thread run by longtime member Rock Superstar, reselling old Steam accounts bundled with games like Counter-Strike, Half-Life, Orange Box, and Left 4 Dead. He explicitly demanded PayPal only (no trades, no going first) and backed his reputation with a wall of customer testimonials. The thread ran from May to July 2009 with periodic bumps, sale confirmations, and casual back-and-forth with buyers over MSN, plus the occasional skeptic asking if the accounts were phished.
I only want paypal, no trades! I take $ (dollars) and (euros) ;) I will not go first.— Rock Superstar
not at all, none of them. And I've kept every account I sell for atleast 2months :)— Rock Superstar
100% Legit, brought a 6 didget off him, fast, easy, great buyer A++— Demote
1up's Vendor Feedback Thread
The old Market Place trust ritual: a self-started thread where a Steam-account trader vouches for himself and the regulars pile on with 5-star reviews.
This is a User Review thread from Fkn0wned's Market Place, started by the trader '1up' themselves with a bare 'gogogo' to kick off testimonials. Founder TuxifieD immediately drops a cryptic dig about 1up losing VIP status 'for a reason,' which gets picked up by another member before the thread pivots back to its intended purpose. A string of regulars (fkngames, Sleeping Forest, aimshot120, zeksta, hoOkz, and others) then post glowing vouches for 1up as a fast, reliable seller of Steam accounts and similar goods, mixing genuine trader-rep culture with typical forum shitposting and inside jokes.
He used to be vip, but isnt anymore for a reason. Thats all I gotta say.— TuxifieD
He gave me a bj Love this guy! Oh sorry on topic: Legit seller!— JUSTiiNCREDiiBLE
+ 1 for lubrication. -1 for smoking. other than that, once your locked, he aint failing you.— Sleeping Forest
hoOkz Steam Shop
Cut-rate Steam accounts, a raffle for a 'nice' account, and a chorus of mods vouching he wasn't a scammer
A Market Place vendor thread from March 2010 where member hoOkz ran his personal storefront selling secondhand Steam accounts loaded with games like CSS, L4D, HL1 packs, and Orange Box, priced roughly $5-$20, plus a 50-cent-ticket raffle for a bonus account. The post laid out his usual seller disclaimers (PayPal only, no trades, post before adding on MSN, guarantees on disabled accounts) typical of the forum's account-flipping scene. Notably, staff members SNK and PopTart both publicly vouched for hoOkz's legitimacy, and regular buyers chimed in confirming good past experiences, making this a well-regarded, 'verified' shop thread in the Market Place.
I approve on ho0kz he is a 100% legit seller and is not scam material.— SNK
Verified By Poptart— PopTart
Bump For HoOkz, Very Legit And sexy! I Bought over 5+ Steam accounts in the past and still currently have them— JUSTiiNCREDiiBLE
$2 Steam Accounts (zEpp's Bulk Sale)
A member unloaded a giant stash of cheap Steam accounts for $2 a pop — no questions asked, first come first serve.
Longtime member zEpp posted a Market Place listing offering a large batch of Steam accounts (CS 1.6, CS:Source, DOD:S, MW2, etc.) for a flat $2 each, sold via PayPal on a first-come-first-serve basis. Several regulars, including forum staff, jumped in requesting specific games, and at least one deal (with mod PopTart) went through fast with a lighthearted 'trusted +rep' vibe. A side comment from f0wh speculated the accounts may have come from phishing rather than legitimate sources, hinting at the shadier undercurrent of the marketplace typical of this scene.
Every account I have is going for $2 no matter what the steamid is and no matter what games are on the accounts.— zEpp
I doubt it, he's using phishing pages I think ;)— f0wh
Legit as fuck Just sent me a real nice steam with 0.0 hours of gameplay.. Trusted +rep— PopTart
Bulk Crysis and Call of Duty 4 CD-Keys
Bulk-buy CoD4 and Crysis keys, tiered pricing, replacement guarantee — until the mods pulled the plug when stock ran dry.
A member named inSpired ran a Market Place listing offering large batches of Call of Duty 4 and Crysis CD-keys at bulk discount pricing, with a FAQ covering banned-key replacements and resale policy. A couple of buyers left positive testimonials confirming working keys, while others asked (unsuccessfully) about Steam compatibility. The thread was eventually auto-closed by founder TuxifieD once all keys sold out, a routine but telling snapshot of the forum's grey-market key-reselling scene.
phished stolen or legit?— hitmanre
if it's crap, I'll replace.— inSpired
No these will NOT work on Steam.— inSpired
iPredict's list [5,6,7,8 Digit Steams]
The old Steam account bazaar: a guy called Botoxx hawking low-digit accounts to the highest (lowest-rep-first) bidder
A Market Place listing thread from October 2009 where user Botoxx advertised a running stock of old Steam accounts (identified by their low digit-count Steam IDs) for sale via PayPal and MSN deals. The thread follows the classic marketplace format: rules about trust order, disputes over selling-only vs trading, and a steady stream of bumps as buyers reported 'smooth' transactions and requested specific digit-count accounts. It's a small, mundane slice of the era's account-flipping economy, complete with a buyer joking about the accounts probably being phished.
I only sell very legit accounts that won't be retreived!— Botoxx
just bought a 7dig, nice smooth trade— bl1ss
Im hoping thers a discount since you probably phished these accounts.— pspwizx
Selling Low-Digit Steam Accounts — 1up's Account Bazaar
A VIP member hawks a stash of low-digit Steam accounts, and the forum just keeps bumping it for him.
In this Market Place thread from November 2009, VIP member '1up' listed a batch of Steam accounts (6, 7, and 8-digit IDs) for sale, posting screenshots and STEAM_ID prefixes on request and insisting on PayPal with an admin/Smod middleman option for trust. Several members vouched for him as a reliable trader over the following weeks, while others asked about trades, digit numbers, or just dropped bumps to keep the listing alive. The thread is a fairly ordinary slice of the site's account-trading economy — low digit Steam IDs were treated as status/collector items back then — livened up only by repeated 'bump' spam and one memorable enthusiastic bump from Slickz.
BUUUUMP FOR A DOPE NIGGAH— Slickz
Trusted guy, went first. No problems at all.— kubaxplx
cmon guys i got 6digits and 7 digits that have been laying around for a long time— 1up
Runescape Store: Speedo's Stolen Account Sale
One VIP, four hijacked Runescape accounts, and a month of relentless bumping in the name of desperately needed cash.
VIP member Speedo posted a Market Place listing selling four Runescape accounts for a few bucks each via PayPal, openly stating they were stolen and that he didn't know the security info attached to them. The thread's real content is mostly the sale terms (no refunds, no trades, buyer beware) followed by nearly a month of Speedo repeatedly bumping his own thread with one-word posts, occasionally joined by other members poking fun at the bump spam. It's a small, blunt snapshot of the forum's black-market side and the shameless self-bump culture common in its Market Place section.
No Refunds, all sales are final. I am not responsible for anything that happens to the account after you have bought it.— Speedo
i think this needs another bump— esahc26
rofl too many bumps going on here— ap3x
Selling iStealer 6 in the Black Market
A member hawks a 'clean' copy of the infamous iStealer keylogger for $10 (then $5), gets vouched by an admin, then gripes when the thread gets hijacked
In the Black Market subforum, member ckgx advertised a cracked copy of iStealer 6, a keylogger/stealer tool, offering it for $10 (later dropped to $5) via MSN messenger, with a free trial to a 'trusted member' to prove it wasn't backdoored. Admin ap3x and moderator PopTart jokingly volunteered as testers, and after another member ('1up') vouched the file was clean via a malware scan link, the thread reopened and sales resumed. It ends with ckgx complaining about people derailing the marketplace thread, and ap3x reminding everyone not to hijack threads before removing the offending posts. A small, characteristic slice of the forum's cheat/tool marketplace culture and its light staff moderation banter.
Anyway, I will be selling iStealer 6 for 10 dollars. iS6 has been cracked but only trusted people have been able to get it.— ckgx
Am I a trusted member? :)— ap3x
AHHHHHHHHHH YEEEEEEEEE BACK IN BUSINESS.— ckgx
Decryption Services (lam3r's crack-it-for-cheap thread)
A member offered free-to-$10 decryption jobs — and got handed a WEP key almost immediately.
In the Black Market subforum, member lam3r advertised a casual decryption service, pricing jobs from free up to $5-10 depending on difficulty and offering his best effort as a self-described amateur rather than a professional. Two members took him up on it: mutantcookie posted a short hash asking for a crack, which lam3r said was too short to be SHA1, and TheMightyDaewoo later dropped a 128-bit WEP key plus several 64-bit keys for cracking. The thread is short and low-drama, but a good little time capsule of the forum's casual 'ask a guy to break your encryption' economy.
Basically prices are like this: 1. If i can't decrypt it: FREE... 4. The more info you can give me about the encryption the better!— lam3r
im pretty sure that this is a sha1 hash... could u please try and crack it— mutantcookie
This was used to encrypt a WEP Key and should be fairly easy.— TheMightyDaewoo
Rawrsec's BlackMarket: Hacked Servers and Stolen Databases for Sale
A user calling himself rawrsec set up shop in the Black Market, hawking hacked servers, stolen databases, and admin access to an anime site — before the ban hammer closed the thread for good.
In this Black Market listing, a poster known as rawrsec advertised access to compromised servers, hacked hosting/domain accounts, stolen forum databases, PHP shells, and bulk email lists, along with an offer to sell admin access on the AnimeOnline site (and, ironically, to 'fix' its vulnerabilities for a fee). Reactions were mixed: a couple of members made light jokes or expressed interest, but the thread was short-lived — rawrsec was banned and the topic locked by a moderator within about six weeks. It's a small but characteristic snapshot of the site's shadier Tech & Security corner, where black-market goods and quick bans went hand in hand.
want admin on your favorite anime site? it'll only cost you $25 ;)— rawrsec
You must really hate anime.— Hinoki
Closed, banned.— Patiencee
Is there a such thing? (headshot circle-target question)
A newbie asks if there's a totally-not-aimbot way to get a target circle on enemy heads — chaos and helpful nerds ensue.
A fairly new member named Archies wonders aloud whether some kind of program exists that draws a targeting circle around an enemy's head to help land headshots, insisting it isn't wallhack or aimbot. A handful of regulars chime in with theories, pointing him toward the idea of a custom player skin with an exaggerated head hitbox and mentioning ESP as the general term for what he's describing, with some back-and-forth about using Steam's SDK/tools to edit models. It's a small, casual General subforum thread typical of the era — a curious newer user getting mentored (half-seriously) by more experienced posters.
Is there a progamme for it? If there is could you help me? Also i dont want a progamme that will get you banned.— Archies
just make the skins head a big box..— asshoel50
its called ESP— snuffz
"I work for steam" LOL
A guy claimed to be a Steam employee and threatened a ban countdown — nobody was scared.
A member recounts trying to phish/steal a Steam account and getting a defiant reply from the target, who claimed to work for Steam and threatened an imminent ban with a mock countdown. The original poster brushed it off as an empty threat. The thread got only a couple of short, low-effort replies, typical of the forum's casual General subforum banter.
You will be banned in 24 hours due to impersinating a Steam employee
You will be banned in 23 Hours 16 Minutes and 32 Seconds
Cool?— waLLa
SuperSimpleWallhack Release Sparks Credit Dispute
Guy posts a 'VAC proof' wallhack, gets called out for not asking permission — then accused of just re-hexing someone else's tool.
A member named Sekte posted a wallhack release for CS 1.6, but the download link was pulled almost immediately after being flagged as containing a virus. Other members quickly piled on, first questioning whether he'd gotten permission to release it per forum rules, then accusing him of rebranding a hack originally made by 'Prodigy' of Prolifik Gaming rather than crediting the real author. Sekte backpedaled, admitted he didn't know the release rules, and posted a screenshot as proof of the hack working. The thread captures a classic minor cheat-scene drama: reposting/rehosting other people's tools without credit and getting dragged for it.
asked permission to release it??? ... read the rules malware said always pm me before you release something— rnie
For your info SSW is made by Prodigy from Prolifik Gaming not Midas or whoever the fuck that is... nice hex job moron.— BLG
It's a public hack and u suck!— Sekte
Four Seasons Hack 0.4beta (VAC2 'proof') release thread
The classic 'unhide plz' cheat-release thread — dozens of one-post wonders begging for a download link, until someone flags it as detected.
A February 2008 release thread in the CS 1.6 General board announcing 'Four Seasons Hack 0.4beta,' a multi-feature cheat (aimbot, ESP, wallhack, speedhack, etc.) claimed to work across Counter-Strike 1.6, Condition Zero, Day of Defeat, and Half-Life. The reply chain is the typical era pattern: members demanding the hidden download be 'unhidden,' quick thanks-and-run posts from throwaway accounts, a handful of one-post-wonder registrations, and scattered feedback about compatibility (one user reporting it didn't work on Vista) before the tool was eventually reported as VAC-detected. It's a snapshot of the low-effort cheat-sharing culture that defined boards like this — heavy on hype, light on lasting value.
it's detected !!!— Shadowek
doesnt work for vista— Sasio
unhide and ill scan— KenKen
Which Hacks Are Vac2proof?
One CS 1.6 noob asks the eternal cheat-scene question: what won't get you VAC2 banned?
A November 2007 thread in the Counter-Strike 1.6 General board where a member named DudeNo asks the community which cheats were considered safe from VAC2 detection at the time. Several regulars chime in debating which tools were marked 'VAC2PROOF' in the site's database versus which were just rumored safe, with talk of Steam's frequent update cycle and how quickly cheats could go from undetected to banned. It ends, as these threads often did, with someone reporting they got banned anyway after trusting a supposedly safe cheat.

Aimbot, Wallhack and norecoil? — CS 1.6 General
A Swedish newbie asks for the 'perfect' cheat combo, and gets a full lecture on the physics of no-recoil vs no-spread instead
A member from Sweden, self-described as new to hacking, asked for recommendations on aimbot, wallhack, and a 'perfect' norecoil for CS 1.6, confused about why his current tools worked inconsistently. Replies ranged from a quick, somewhat inaccurate explainer to a detailed, almost academic breakdown by veteran member DCLXVI on the technical and historical differences between no-recoil and no-spread cheats. Another poster dropped raw code snippets for wallhack, norecoil, and aimbot logic, treated half as a joke ('lolz!'). The thread is a fairly typical slice of the forum's cheat-support culture — casual, technically minded, with regulars happy to correct newbies at length.
Well hello mates of the hacking comunity. Im from sweden and my english will not be 100% accurate.— Lucke
Essentially the same thing, no-recoil and no-spread attempt to reduce the inaccuracy of weapons when firing.— DCLXVI
lolz!— h4xor_bob
VAC Banned Hack
A worried noob asks if switching Steam accounts will save him from a VAC ban — and ends the thread declaring his love for the site.
A brand-new member with only 5 posts admits several cheats he tried didn't work, but one finally did, and now he's nervous about VAC bans spreading to his other account. A couple of regulars, including longtime [FkN] Crew member Arcade, reassure him that switching accounts and deleting the cheat leaves him clean. The thread is short, low-drama, and ends on a wholesome note with the OP thanking the community.
I finally use Project Dionysus and it work greatly.— n00bish
No, there are no traces left by those hacks.— Arcade
I love you and this site.— n00bish
is there a way to upgrade to 1.6?
A newbie's innocent Steam question spirals into a shady cheat-site plug, a keylogger accusation, and a mod telling someone to 'go die'
A confused new Steam buyer named |-noodle-| asks whether he needs to 'upgrade' his Counter-Strike purchase to 1.6, not realizing 1.6 was simply the current version on Steam. Regulars clear up the confusion quickly, but the thread takes its usual Fkn0wned turn when a low-post-count user (sniper24) starts pushing a third-party cheat site and offers to email the file directly, prompting immediate suspicion of a keylogger/virus scam from other members. Forum vet 'The Moose' calls out the advertising outright and tells sniper24 to 'go die,' while sniper24 insists it was just a genuine suggestion, not a shill.
better yet, i'll send it to u. Give me ur e-mail address and i'll send u the file.— sniper24
are you gonna send some keyloger virus to him?— lragnarok11
Yay, advertising! No, seriously, go die.— The Moose
CS:S Skins for CS 1.6 Transformation Pack
A member drops a CS:S-to-1.6 skin pack, and the room immediately smells a rat: 'it's a .exe, someone could scan it?'
In this short General thread, member 1337jizz shares a downloadable pack (hosted on Rapidshare, with Photobucket screenshots) that ports Counter-Strike: Source models and guns into Counter-Strike 1.6. Fellow members souler and hunterbrute224 push back with skepticism about running an unknown .exe, worried about scans and VAC detection, while the OP insists it's just cosmetic skins and not a hack. The thread is a small, everyday snapshot of the era's file-sharing and trust culture around third-party mods and tools.
This is a really cool and safe program....— 1337jizz
i dont really trhust it , because it's a .exe , someone could scan it?— souler
I dont trust this either, if it is VAC detectable or something happens its risky....— hunterbrute224
Hacks for VAC
A newbie asks if any wallhack is truly VAC-safe — and already knows the answer from experience.
A brand-new member named korppen posts a broken-English question asking whether any cheats could be used on VAC-secured Counter-Strike 1.6 servers without triggering a ban. Regular haha.1 (a prolific '1000 Club' poster) plugs their own 'Super Simple Wall' cheat release and says to check the release section for VAC-ban status updates. Korppen then admits they'd already been VAC banned once before using that very hack. A third poster, aleksi8, drops a link to another wallhack/ESP tool. The thread is a small, quintessential slice of the site's cheat-support culture — earnest, low-stakes, and a little doomed from the start.
Can someone says are those hacks which can use in vac server and not come vac ban?— korppen
okey. last time i used super simple wallhack i get vac ban .. Hope not this time— korppen
SSW SUPER SIMPLE WALL V3.6 .. i will update the hacks.. see the release section and the LATEST posts by me to see if the hack is vac banned or not..— haha.1
noob guide needed
A newbie just wants a CS:S hack tutorial — and gets a mini-lecture on why coding isn't a weekend hobby
A member named ABACABB asks in the Programming subforum for a beginner's guide (or link) to making his own CS:S hacks, admitting he only knows how to use hacks, not build them. Other members chime in with pointers toward C, C++, and VB6, and a low-grade debate breaks out between conTagious and doobie5 over how long it actually takes to write something 'useful' versus just copy-pasting open source code and calling it your own. Classic mid-2000s cheat-scene forum energy: earnest noob question, a bit of gatekeeping, some ego about who 'really' codes.
im a noob when it comes to makeing them or anythig i just no how to use them— ABACABB
will take u atleast 1.5 years before u can write something usefull unless ur a super nerd who lives on the pc 24/7— conTagious
no u didnt "make" ur first hack u copied ur first code from open source and implemented it in what u cal "ur own"— conTagious
CRC32Static Generator: A VAC-Dodging Tool Debate That Became a Gravedigging Magnet
A 2007 file-hash tool, a rumor about dodging VAC, and a two-year trail of gravediggers saying 'unhide'
DCLXVI dropped a Rapidshare-hosted CRC32Static Generator tool in the Programming subforum back in mid-2007, with barely any explanation attached. Replies quickly turned it into a low-grade technical debate about whether tweaking a file's CRC could help avoid Valve Anti-Cheat detection, with members disagreeing on whether VAC or VAC2 even checked CRC at all. The thread then went quiet for a year, only to get periodically necro'd by newer members typing 'unhide' to get at the hidden download link, until a moderator finally stepped in to warn a gravedigger and the topic was locked.
Its been said that it can help you from being VACED don't know if that is true or not so don't fucking flame me for making a mistake.— hEndr!x
The pros say VAC2 doesnt scan crc, just VAC, but w/e!— Sonikk
Warned for Gravedigging.— Skippy
SuperFast Firing Dual Elites (Rapidfire Config Thread)
A basic bind-and-config trick for dual elites turns into 20 replies of pure 'unhide' spam
Member ThatMicWhore posted a simple Counter-Strike config script for rapid-firing the Dual Elites pistols using mousewheel binds and a toggle key, hidden behind spoiler tags. The thread quickly devolved into the classic old-forum ritual of newer members chiming in just to say 'unhide' or 'thanks' to reveal the hidden code blocks, with barely any real discussion of the technique itself. It's a small, dated snapshot of CS 1.6/Source-era scripting culture and the forum's hide-tag economy.
unhide— Botoxx
sounds complicated but sure— 4Saken
why is this good?— Kida
WowEmuHacker 3.0.9 — The Suspicious 'Download' That Wasn't
A two-post 'noob' drops a WoW hack link, refuses to prove it's clean, and gets called out as an upload-link scammer months later.
A low-post-count member named Xtr3me posted a supposed WowEmuHacker tool for World of Warcraft patch 3.0.9, claiming it worked '100%'. When asked to have it scanned for malware, Xtr3me deflected instead of complying, which drew immediate suspicion. Months later other members piled on, pointing out the poster barely had any posts and that the link wasn't even a real download — just an upload link, likely bait from, as one member put it, 'an annoying swedish geek.' A minor but classic example of the era's sketchy warez/hack posting and the community's built-in skepticism toward randoms dropping 'working' tools.
Someone scan this...?— OmfgzATree
Hmmm, why don't u try to scan? I swear its not TrojanHorse or something :S— Xtr3me
There is no download link. its a upload link. its just a annoying swedish geek. who want to be an asshole like always.— sinder
Semi Wallhack Script for de_dust/de_dust2
A 'wallhack script' for two CS maps only, gated behind a spoiler tag, and half the thread was just people typing 'unhide'
In April 2008, user hugz` posted a limited-scope wallhack script claiming to work only on de_dust and de_dust2, with the actual script and a demo video hidden behind a spoiler tag pointing to an external link. The nine-page thread quickly filled with low-effort replies from members either thanking hugz`, dismissing it as fake ('bs waste of time', 'phail'), or simply typing 'unhide' to reveal the spoiler. It's a pretty typical snapshot of the era's cheat-sharing culture on Fkn0wned's Tech & Security > Programming board — more hype and skepticism than substance.
bs waste of time— doom49
does it really work?— arjayfunkie
unhide— zech
[Tool] My FPS Config. And Others. — Keke10000's FPS/bunnyhop config share
A CS:S fps config, a buy bind, and a mouse-wheel bunnyhop script kick off a five-page 'unhide/ty' pile-on.
Keke10000 posted a personal FPS-boosting config for Counter-Strike: Source along with a buy-bind and a mouse-wheel bunnyhop script, claiming both were league legal. The thread quickly turned into the classic hidden-content ritual, with dozens of members posting 'unhide,' 'thanks,' or 'ty' just to reveal the download. A small side debate broke out when parkie claimed bunnyhopping wasn't league legal, and Keke10000 pushed back citing years of league experience. Otherwise it's a low-drama, high-traffic utility thread typical of the Scripts/Tools section.
Except I have been playing in leagues since 2006, and I know that every league allows bunny hopping, under the rules of some shit called "air strafing" or allows it in general.— Keke10000
show EDIT: looks good but bunnyhopping isn't allowed in leagues, so it is not league legal.— parkie
unhide, i make them i wanna check your tho— KreaT!vE
CS:S Server Lagger Bind - evilbill2's Revenge Script
One salty CS:S player's revenge script for admins who picked on him — 'lag any server with a bind, easy as pie'
Member evilbill2 posted a downloadable .cfg script tied to a keyboard bind, claiming it could lag any Counter-Strike: Source server, framed as payback for getting hassled by server admins. The thread is a classic low-effort drop-and-run: a hidden download link followed by page after page of one-word 'ty'/'thanks'/'unhide' replies from members just farming the hidden content, with barely any real discussion or feedback on whether it worked. It's a good snapshot of the Scripts/Tools subforum's culture at the time — quick tools, thin justification, and a crowd more interested in unlocking the download than debating it.
Lag Any Css Server With A Bind Easy As Pie— evilbill2
This Is A Script I Made When I Was Getting Picked On By Admins So...— evilbill2
unhide; if it works: really, thank you !— pocal
The RuneScape Hack Bundle Auction
One member liquidated his entire RuneScape cheat collection for forum points — bundle deal, no returns.
A 2007 auction thread on Gametration.com's Auctions board where member 'fizzer' put up a bundle of old RuneScape tools and guides (miners, clickers, macros, auto-talkers, a 'making millions' guide he'd once paid real money for) for sale in exchange for fkn/forum points. Other members chimed in with bidding etiquette and a warning against including certain riskier items in the lot, while fizzer haggled over pricing and later just bumped the thread trying to drum up bids. A small, mundane but charmingly of-its-era slice of the site's internal points-based economy.
the secret to making millions guide(this one actally cost money in real life, i hade it like 3 years... now selling for fkn points!)— fizzer
Dont sell things like Art Money and Scar scripts a...— Sonikk

The Great Steam Account Auction of 2007
An 8-game Steam account with a broken points system spirals into a month-long bidding war (and a fake 4000-point troll bid).
A classic Gametration.com auction thread from October-November 2007 where user Legit_Hacks put up an old-school Steam account (CS 1.6, Half-Life, DoD, TFC, and a handful of other early Valve titles) for auction using the forum's point-based currency. What should've been a quick sale turned into a weeks-long back-and-forth bidding war between mystical1, Jack Daniels, and a few others, complicated by the site's points system going down mid-auction, leaving bidders arguing over whether bids of '150' or '280' even meant anything without a working economy. It's a small, mundane slice of the cheat-scene marketplace culture — account trading as its own micro-economy, forum drama over imaginary currency, and the site's infrastructure quietly falling apart in the background.
4000 jk 250— Cud
220 and no it wont it'll be mine hehe— mystical1
The points aren't coming back.— Rebelz
The Great CS 1.6 Account Auction of October 2007
A single CS 1.6 account auction dragged on for weeks, spiraled from 100 points to a wild '5000 points' bid, and ended in a mod-close plea.
In the Auctions section of Gametration.com, member orangespwnz kicked off a points-based auction for a CS 1.6 account, starting the bidding at 100 points with in-game screenshots as proof. What followed was a slow-motion bidding war stretching from early October into November 2007, with regulars like Famousss, mr.N0Nam3, milkrulz04, minitureman, and Arcade trading escalating bids (100 up to 550+), plenty of stalling, side commentary about points inflation, and good-natured grumbling about how long the auction dragged on. It ends anticlimactically with an outlandish 5000-point bid from blackxthink and another member asking a moderator to just close the thread.

Soldat 1.4.1 Multi Hack Release Thread
A 2007 cheat drop for the 2D pixel-shooter Soldat, plus the eternal chorus of 'unhide plz' and 'can someone scan this for viruses'
A July 2007 release thread in Fkn0wned's Red Light District > Software section, offering a multi-feature cheat for the game Soldat 1.4.1, credited to a coder named Tr3nx. Replies trickle in over several months (July through November 2007) with the classic low-effort forum cheat-thread ritual: thanks, requests to unhide the download, and one member nervously asking for a virus scan. Mostly forgettable but a good snapshot of the era's casual cheat-sharing culture and forum member ranks (Noob, Trained Noob, etc.).
Can anyone scan it for viruses??— pwn911
WUNDERBAR!! I'M A SOLDAT JAWOHL!— Igot2balls

Aimbot That Doesn't Make Headshots
A newbie wanted his aimbot to look less obvious — the regulars mocked him, then told him anyway.
A new member ('fkunknown') asked for help configuring an aimbot to avoid always going for headshots, hoping to look less suspicious in Counter-Strike: Source. Regulars ribbed him for not searching first, with one member ('-Darkness-') pointing to an outside cheat site before being scolded by longtime member '-Still Life-' for linking off-site. Others chimed in with general banter about hitbox/aimspot settings and silent aim to avoid looking like an obvious cheater, all wrapped in the forum's usual sarcastic, joking tone. The thread is a small, everyday snapshot of the site's cheat-support culture and its in-jokes about regulars' many aliases.
i'm growing weary of non google users.... G00GLE IT— -Darkness-
stop linking to other hack sites you fucking idiot— -Still Life-
why not just use a detected hack i mean if your too dumb to google might aswell get banned =]— jcomp6
fizzer's Bunnyhop-Only VAC Panic
Dude only wanted to spacebar-bunnyhop and ended up convinced VAC 2 was coming for his soul over a demo file.
A member named fizzer panics after a bunnyhop session goes weirdly glitchy (screen tilting) and he hears someone has a demo of him, fearing a VAC 2 ban despite swearing he only had bunnyhop enabled. The thread turns into a mini FAQ where regulars patiently explain that demos alone can't trigger a VAC ban (VAC scans your PC, doesn't rely on footage), and that his issue was probably just a spinbot-style script glitch. It ends amicably with fizzer thanking everyone and switching to a different, apparently more reliable bunnyhop tool recommended by rnie, who signs off correcting his own nickname's spelling.
im your [FkN] friend alright? ... please help with this coz people said they have a demo of me doing this but i didnt no it and i could be VAC 2 banned please help!!— fizzer
A demo cannot, repeat, CANNOT get you VAC banned. VAC will only ban you if you are caught by the scans they do on your PC/Folder.— qwerty54
np, use it on rpg servers with longjump, its so funny, people are like, OMG WTF HOW YOU DO THAT OMG OMG teach me!!!?!— rnie
Source Industries VIP Hack Inquiry Thread
A newbie just wanted proof the cheat wouldn't get him banned — instead he got a referral pitch, a trojan accusation, and a Manager's cameo
A member ('qwerty54') asks for video proof that Source Industries' paid CS:Source VIP cheat was 'undetected' before he'd buy it. The thread meanders through referral-hustling from other members offering to make demo videos in exchange for points or referral credit, a brief scare about the cheat being a trojan (deflected onto a different, unrelated product), and questions about payment traceability via PayPal. It ends with a staff-shared YouTube demo video credited to member Shifty, plus an appearance from site Manager Shifty himself. Classic scene-era mix of low-level tech support, cheat-seller promotion, and forum hierarchy on display via member titles like [1K] 1000 Club and [Manager].
Albert you fool its MSX that trojans you not SI.— Malware
good to say i know im not gna get cought and all you public uses may get banned eny moment lol— minitureman
if you donate me 100 points ill do a video..— andr3zit0
Fknowned CSS Hook Crashing After the May 2007 Update
A cheat user begs '8bit' to fix a broken aimbot while his whole Windows install quietly falls apart around him
A member named sidharth reports that his 'fknowned css_hook' cheat (aimbot, wallhack, ESP, etc.) stopped working and started crashing his game after a Counter-Strike: Source update. He pleads for the tool's author (8bit) to patch it and even compares it unfavorably to a rival hack. A retired supervisor, NutterNZ, chimes in to note that most hacks got detected/broken after the May 31st update. The thread spirals into an unrelated tech-support mess involving a different tool (HL2Hook) crashing, missing service packs, and a botched Windows XP repair attempt with no install disc on hand.
please help me out because i love usin this battleapps hack and need help since it surprisingly stopped working today!!!!!!!— sidharth
All hacks are detected after the May 31st update and most of them wont work anymore.— NutterNZ
Hl2hook says miranda32.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close.— sidharth
RuneScape Phisher by CandleJack
A 2009 thread where a member casually dropped a RuneScape phishing pack, 'ripped off some azn kid,' to a chorus of unbothered 'ty's
In this February 2009 thread in the Other Games section, user CandleJack posted a hidden download for a RuneScape phishing tool, openly admitting it was stolen from another user and explicitly disclaiming responsibility for its use. The replies are the classic low-effort thank-you chain typical of the forum's downloads culture — dozens of members hitting 'unhide,' saying thanks, or making passing jokes, with only a brief side conversation about the file possibly being corrupted. It's a snapshot of the era's casual attitude toward account theft tools being shared like any other file, wrapped in dark forum humor.
har har har its hidden biotch suck it I'm not responsible for wat you do with it and this is ripped off some azn kid its untouched btw— CandleJack
o yea treat her right or surprise buttsecks— CandleJack
Seems like it's corrupted/damaged— -Darkness-
Battlefield Heroes Aimbot/ESP Release Thread
kprof drops a Battlefield Heroes aimbot/ESP — cue the classic 'it won't inject' saga
A 2009 thread in the Other Games section where user kprof posted a cheat for Battlefield Heroes with an aimbot, ESP, and no-spread features. The rest of the thread is the usual troubleshooting shuffle — QuaXz (later BANNED) repeatedly failing to inject the DLL, kprof walking him through it, and streetmedic eventually chiming in with a fix involving missing runtime files. Later replies devolve into the era-typical low-effort 'unhide', 'reveal', 'ty' posts just to unlock the hidden download.
can't inject C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Desktop\41mb0t.dll into BFHeroes.exe— QuaXz

197-0 Crysis 'Rage' Called Out as Fake
One guy posts a flawless 197-0 Crysis scoreboard as proof of his 'custom hacks' — the mods weren't buying it.
Member Teamkillexpert posted a screenshot bragging about a lopsided 197-0 Crysis scoreline, claiming it was powered by his own 'custom hacks' that no other hack could counter. Forum regular The Moose immediately called it out as not being a real rage, and Teamkillexpert tried to defend himself by claiming the server had simply emptied out over time. A moderator swiftly closed the thread with a one-line verdict: not a rage. A pretty small, quintessentially early-cheat-forum spat over what even counts as bragging rights.
My custom hacks are so powerful that no hack but my own can break through this rage, it has perfect defense and firepower, ture super gay rage.— Teamkillexpert
This is not a rage, you totally fail, I am sorry to inform you about this.— The Moose
not a rage.— mr.N0Nam3
How to get BFH Aimbot to work
A hidden-content aimbot fix for Battlefield Heroes met by a chorus of "unhide" and one guy asking what game this even is.
A member posted a spoiler-tagged fix for getting an aimbot working in Battlefield Heroes, listing required files and hotkey configs behind a [hide_me] tag. The replies are almost entirely low-effort one-word posts ('unhide', 'lets see', 'wat') from members trying to unlock the hidden content, plus a bit of genuine confusion since BFH was still in beta at the time. It's a classic snapshot of forum-era cheat threads padded out by reply-farming to reveal hidden posts.
wtf u talking about battlefield heroes????? its still in beta— aimshot120
what game is this ?— joeym0nk
unhide— Koruptt
Battlefield Heroes Multicheat Release Thread
A 2009 Battlefield Heroes hack drops in, and half the replies are just people asking 'does this even work?'
A member named erkan123 posted a multicheat (aimbot, ESP/wallhack, chams, radar, killsounds) for the free-to-play shooter Battlefield Heroes back in May 2009, complete with an injector how-to. The thread quickly filled with the classic low-effort forum shuffle: unhide requests, one-word 'test'/'ty' posts, and repeated reports from VIP regular Raidmaxxx that the hack was broken against the current game update. A side discussion broke out over whether BF Heroes had even been officially released yet, since it was still in closed beta requiring a key.
Hack does not work with current update.— Raidmaxxx
how the fuck are we meant to download it i keep gettin redirected from one page to the previous one— aimshot120
is bf heroes al ready released?— hcduckiej
COD:MW2 Player Stats Hack (Rank/Prestige Editor Thread)
Fake your way to 3rd prestige in MW2 — then argue in the replies about whether VAC is watching you do it.
darkblood24 kicks off this Other Games thread by sharing a pair of tools used to manually edit a Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 player's local stats file — rank, prestige, unlocks, kill/death counts, XP, and more — so it looked like a legit high-rank account. The thread has the classic early-download-link mixup, a quick 'thanks, works well' confirmation, then splits into a slow-burn debate about detection: one member claims VAC was actively scanning stat structs and warned that obvious jumps (like insta-level-70) would get people banned, while others (reflexez, JuMx) just want a straight answer on ban risk that never really lands. There's also a bit of forum texture — a confused newbie asking if it works on Xbox 360 getting bluntly clowned by the OP, and a legit player who leveled properly ribbing the rank-hackers for skipping the actual game.
if you have played for like 1 hour and you are @ level 70 you will also get banned— cardoow
how retarded are you.— darkblood24
Play the fkin game man, its always more enjoyable to get to that ak before other noobs but not before u even started playn the game.— aimshot120
BF2 keygen written by laptops
A guy just wants to play Battlefield 2 online for free — nine pages later, still no working key.
A 2007 thread on Fkn0wned's Other Games board where member 'laptops' asks for a keygen to get valid online keys for Battlefield 2. Fellow members oblige with a rapidshare-hosted keygen, skepticism follows about whether generated keys actually work online (with one user, Malware, warning that generated keys likely end in a banned range), and the thread devolves into laptops impatiently waiting on a physical copy of the game from Amazon while others chime in with 'cool', 'ty', and 'doesnt work.' Classic low-stakes, slow-burn warez-scene thread — mundane but a nice time capsule of forum etiquette (rep points, [hide] tags, rapidshare links) from the era.
FUCKIN AMAZON ARE PISSING MEOFFFFFFF. WHERE IS MY FUCKING GAMEEEEEE— laptops
Well it came back clean on the scan so use at your own risK!— Malware

The FSM-5AT Pistol - Ultimate Weapon in Crysis
One guy's homemade 'ultimate weapon' hack for Crysis, showcased in a shaky 320x240 YouTube clip
Member Teamkillexpert posted a self-made pistol hack for Crysis, claiming it could kill tanks and turrets where other downloaded cheats failed, complete with a low-res YouTube demo video and a webshots screenshot. He bragged about using it to freeze enemy vehicles like planes and tanks mid-action for laughs. The lone reply from veteran member mystical1 shot the thread down flatly, pointing out it belonged in a rage/showcase context rather than being framed the way it was. It's a small, quirky snapshot of the era's homebrew cheat-showcasing culture in the Other Games subforum.
By now, this pistol i made is the most powerful weapon there is, in the world(of crysis hacking).— Teamkillexpert
Freezing planes in-flight and let the pilot smash to the ground is also very fun!— Teamkillexpert
Sorry but this is not a rage. All it is is you killing people even if it is you.— mystical1
Crossfire Aimbot Release
A member drops his homemade Crossfire aimbot, and the replies devolve into Rapidshare hate and 'how do I even use this thing' confusion.
In this 2009 Other Games thread, member Ment0r posts a self-made aimbot for the game Crossfire, complete with a demo video and a Rapidshare download link. The thread quickly turns into a low-key argument over Rapidshare vs Mediafire hosting, some casual thanks, and a string of confused newer members asking how to actually run the tool. One user even questions at the end whether the tool was really an aimbot at all, capping off the thread's shrug-worthy, half-broken-download vibe typical of the era.
A real Crossfire hack...— Ment0r
Mediafire will forever PWN Rapidshit. I don't see why people use that.— h4voCK
thats no aimbot??— davvethebest
HowTo: Get rid of stealth effects in NeoTokyo
The niche NeoTokyo cloak-counter thread that outlived the game's own player count
A member named Mystry shared a method to strip the stealth/cloak visual effect in the indie Source-engine shooter NeoTokyo, turning cloaked players into an obvious wireframe model instead of using a standard material wallhack. The thread stayed alive for months with a handful of regulars swapping variations (a pink/blue shader-replacement version, editing client.dll, tweaking indicator icons for team colors) and other users just dropping quick thanks or asking for help finding a 'mathack.' Low-traffic but technically earnest — a snapshot of the forum's niche-game modding subculture beyond the usual CS/CoD crowd.
This makes anyone who uses stealth turn into a blaringly obvious wireframe model.— Mystry
I've made my own anti-stealth which turns them into a pink/white/blue type pattern.— naka123
You say you can get mathacks "EVERYWHERE" But I'll be dammed if I can't seem to find EVERYWHERE.— heretohack
