10,000 Members! Time For a Blast From the Past!
I'd like to take the time to thank everyone for making Console Discussions what it is today! I know most of you wonder how we got to where we are, so I figured I'd give a glimpse back into the becoming of Console Discussions. Thank BlackVenom, he's the one that told me reminding people about how much blood, sweat, and tears was put into the site was important. He's right, I mean I know you guys know I love the site and pretty much am either on the site or working on it, but do you know how we got to where we are, how hard we worked, thought, ect?
Well it all started by when I was being fed by a tube inside a dark place... Well that may be a little too far back. It all started in the Christmas of 2005. I got my PSP from my mom as a present.
https://www.consolediscussions.com/f...tmas2005-1.jpg
I got Twisted Metal Head-On with it and played it for awhile. This was before all the hacking, so the good games were fun. I later got Socom U.S. Navy SEALs Fireteam Bravo, I made a clan called Johnny Bravo (lol) and met Matt (Wolfe715). He later joined my clan and we made a website for our clan on freewebs. The hacking started and the clan slowly started not coming on, although remained in the clan. Eventually me and Matt moved on to Syphon Filter Dark Mirror. We met a chick named Chick AssAssin, Matt and I became good friends with her and we all made a Cell together called Silent Kill Ops (On Syphon Filter Dark Mirror a Cell was a Clan). After the Cell was made I then made another freewebs website and linked the old Johnny Bravo freewebs to the new Silent Kill Ops freewebs. The old clan members of Johnny Bravo started coming back and joining Silent Kill Ops. Everyone knew the new clan website and eventually freewebs deleted the Johnny Bravo freewebs. Chick AssAssin would give us ideas for the freewebs site like babe of the week, during one week sometime after Halloween we chose her as the babe of the week. She gave us a picture from the previous Halloween and we added it to the babe of the week. A few days later, her parents found it and yelled at her, so she asked us to remove it for awhile.

Matt then thought we should actually buy a website and he even had a hosting company worked out called IPower. We began to move everything over and then changed the Silent Kill Ops freewebs to alert everyone we moved to SilentKillOps.com. The Silent Kill Ops freewebs is still up today link back to us at Console Discussions :happy::
http://www.freewebs.com/silentkillops/
We became popular, but Syphon Filter Dark Mirror died quickly, mainly just because the ranking system. The concept is similar to Call of Duty World at War, but it was way to easy to reach the highest rank, and when you did you wanted to make a new name. I've made so many names and eventually got bored myself and Matt, my Cell, and me left Syphon Filter Dark Mirror. We then went to Socom U.S. Navy SEALs Fireteam Bravo 2. We tried to make a new clan, but changing Silent Kill Ops into a clan for another game just didn't feel right. We eventually changed it up and then added a link to the Syphon Filter Dark Mirror Silent Kill Ops Cell.
Chick AssAssin was one of those that could not join us on Socom U.S. Navy SEALs Fireteam Bravo 2 as she didn't have a lot of money, so she just stayed on Syphon Filter Dark Mirror. I still played with her from time to time and eventually she got some other games I had including Socom U.S. Navy SEALs Fireteam Bravo 2, but for some reason she just loved Syphon Filter Dark Mirror too much.
https://www.consolediscussions.com/f...sinChick-1.jpg
As for what happened to Chick AssAssin, most of her friends, some being mine, left to another game or left completely because of the hackers. However the hackers never bothered Chick AssAssin as she hardly played. She mainly just loved to talk, you guys know how girls are. Even though we still stayed in contact, me going on Syphon Filter Dark Mirror every once in awhile to keep her company, she eventually got tired of everyone else leaving her and ended up selling her PSP. I haven't heard from her since.
At this point I was already hacking as I became interested in it. Things weren't so bad, it wasn't like it is today with at least one hacker in a room. You could play legitly and most hackers weren't 11 year old immature morons who didn't know when to play fair. However I was interested in everything about PSP at this point and discussed with Matt about expanding our website. We then became PSP Discussions.
At this point not only was I hooked on learning more and more about PSP, I was hooked on learning more and more about websites. I would post updates and tutorials from our beloved Dark_Alex and help other PSP sceners out there with their problems, while at the same time adding cool new features and learning more and more about actually owning a website.
We then grew more (so much that our IPower host was having trouble supporting us and we set off in search for a new host) and I loved working on the website more and more. Constantly learning things everyday and waking up to the site to see what was up and see what new things I could try to make members go ":blink: That blows my mind" about.
Then Console Discussions was formed. I bought my own 360 and wanted to show it the same love I show my PSP. So I decided to think of a way to lay out more consoles and went and opened what you see before you Console Discussions! I still love it and the more we grow the more I love it. There is nothing that is going to separate me from the rest of you guys, as I will always be here for you guys as I am sure you guys will too. Sure I know some of you guys work, but hey we're here 24/7 and I nor the site is going anywhere.
https://www.consolediscussions.com/f...11/Today-1.jpg
Here I am today. Doing all this over the years has really got me interested in websites. I'm planning on majoring in website design and I will be looking forward to seeing Console Discussions everyday as a reminder of who I become. I think I'm going to cry. :sad:See BlackVenom, you got me going now...
Continue to grow and I love all you guys. (No homo)

I got mine 06. I remember sneaking into my moms bedroom & finding the PSP a couple days before christmas. It took an hour & a half.. she had a decoy bag with my couzins presents in the closet. It was hidden under her bed in a carrage box for cloths under a sweat shirt. Yeah shes smart i guess.
I remember joining this site as PSP Discussions only 5 months ago. Seems SO MUCH LONGER. I feel like i've been here a year. A great year it seemed like to. Well a great 5 months :)

Re: 10,000 Members! Time For a Blast From the Past!
Ok so i think i should share my story about being here since SKO. It all started about 2 or 3 summers ago when i met this kid we all thought was cool named 7zifle who later screwed me and johnny and everyone else in the socom community over. Anyways when i joined here I was a total socom ftb 2 hacking scrub who couldnt even make his own Cheat.DB file and would always bug johnny for his. Then i got into programming for the psp and making simple codes for ftb2 like text mods and color distorations and things like that. Not to mentioin you guys would not have files to download with out me giving my megaupload account to Johnny =]. Anyways cheers to 10 thoushand members johnny and ill always be on this site even if I dont post as much as i used to. Johnny I love you bro (no homo;])

Re: 10,000 Members! Time For a Blast From the Past!

No they still would have had them, I still uploaded files to megaupload fine, they just couldn't use the Direct Links script to download them all at once without wait times. Although it has been a HUGE help for me to upload things faster using the manager.

Messing with Cheatmaster, then I went to CWCheat where a few known hackers helped me some like shredurface. From there onto NitePR where I started using the built in engine to search for stuff and started messing around with functions. I'm not that good with other games just Socom and Syphon Filter. There are a few games I am ok with. I hacked ATV to make me go faster on an ATV and to fall through the map lol.
