[font=Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif]TWO YEARS ON FORUMKORNER[/font]
[font=Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif]Two years ago, today, a post-pubescent 17-year old sat in his computer chair like it was any other typical day. He browsed YouTube trickshotting team channels as he did regularly, but something caught his attention from the corner of his eye. It was a video in his suggested videos section titled "SELLING 12.7K ACTIVE FOLLOWER INSTAGRAM!!"[/font]
[font=Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif]www.youtube.com/watch?v=zBRQRBmDYlg[/font]
[font=Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif]That boy then contacted the owner of the channel that the video was uploaded onto. The owner of that channel would be the one and only @"187". After a few hours of discussion, the boy was directed towards what would soon become his home on the Internet.[/font]
Well, that dumbfounded child is me.
I joined ForumKorner with an empty PayPal account and a love for Photoshop. I quickly became very interested in the "OG" game. Thanks to @"Reptar" and a few social medium banners, I was able to begin bartering my way up into the market. I started off with an AIM messenger (dive) and an Instagram handle (yank). Months later, trade after trade, I managed to be the owner of some of the BEST Instagram handles (air, emo, two, 50, rampage, meth, fear, etc.), as well as some of the best KIKs (simple, OFWGKTA, on, no, etc.). Along with all of those, I've managed to put away around $13,800 and update my room/set-up completely.
After almost 730 full days spent enjoying this site, I've accomplished quite a bit for being a member with such little tenure.
I've managed to:
- Exceed 2,300 reputation points
- Accumulate somewhere between 500 & 1,000 post reports
- Post approximately 4,600 times
- Receive nearly 1,500 Kudos
- Become a resigned Staff member
- Own a good 10-15 of FK's best groups
- Make many new friends (as well as lose some)
- Become trustworthy in the eyes of hundreds of members
- Middleman hundreds of deals
- Help and offer assistance to others in need
- Learn a lot in life (believe it or not)
SHOUT-OUT TIME!
@187 - The kid that referred me.@Reptar - The potato that got me into the market with his nasty AIM (trophy) and pathetic Instgram (yank) and ended up making +$10,000 my first year.
@Nevermind - The apple to my eye and the only kid I trust with anything.
@Mike - My best friend that ended up scamming me for my Instagram (fear), but then paid me back like x3 it's value without even asking.
@jason - My only Oreo that I know. He doesn't like when I make racist jokes.
@Critical - You suck at every Call of Duty known to man. You're also a f*ggot. I wish my name was as gay as your's.
@Greed - For only ever playing FIFA and NEVER talking in the Skype calls.. pussy.
@Rude - For trusting me when no one else would. I trust you as much as I do Alex.
@"Cann!bal" - For sucking at Philosophy & Debates threads.
@Philly - I joined FK, the other site, and the other other site all on this day.. and you are now my daddy. I chose you, but in reality, you chose me. Even though there are days you hate me, you can't even attempt to deny that I hold a piece of that heart. None of us would be here without you, big girl. Thank you. I've also given you like $1,500 for all the groups and shit.. so you have to love me.
@Chill - My second friend I made here. The first time I spoke to this kid was in the most awkward 1-on-1 Skype call. I was intimidated, but things warmed up. We've both had our differences, but shit hasn't changed. I also protected Emily from the sex-craved kids in the Skype calls.
@Flippy - Ryon the God. Ripper of rippers.
@Brennan - I know your last name, fucking potato. You still owe Chill like $60.00.
@Bryan - For being a main nigga until you tried scamming me.
@Trilogy & @kyle - For just being those fuckboys. #FreeNevermind2015
@"м¢ℓσνιη" _ Ohhhhhh, Evan. I love you so. You little Australian computer nerd. Maybe I'll join that one Tech forum some day.
@"Michael" - I don't thump Bibles, but we get along quite well. I hope to see you return some day.
@Jimmy & @Andy - These two taught me to stop being a pussy and hiding behind corruption. They have made me the asshole I am today (in a good way).
@Difficult - Marc.. fag.
@Astro & @Prepare - The other two graphics fags that motivated me to be better than them. I gave up. They won. Hit up @Astro for your userbars, kiddies. @Prepare makes stuff too.
@Abel - Thank you for keeping me safe while I helped you with your math homework/tests.
@Lethal - Always sold me my best shit on the down-low and cheap as fuck. Gracias.
@Poe - For basically scamming a friend and I of somewhere around $11,000.
@Pun - You're on the bottom because I had to think of what I was going to type here. And.. I still don't know.
I probably forgot a lot of you.
Well, that wraps it up. Thanks for making it a great 730 days and here's to 365 more!
