Past:
Knwn was once a renown hack maker. As of late, he is currently banned from BWHacks because he created a host hack, which Dt deemed as "malicious".
This ended with the famous line: It's called responsibility. People like knwn harm the whole gaming community." - DT :(
Not much longer after this, the DOSS wars began between Ghoztcraft and BWhacks. Knwn was the Co-Administrator for ZeroGamers, so he stayed out of the fighting that occurred during this time, at least that was what he wanted to appear to be doing...
It turned out that Knwn had defended ZeroGamers because XGhozt would not stop members of GC from dossing ZeroGamers. The following is a direct quote from Knwn himself:
[10:44] ViperGTSR3g: shortly after that dossing incident
[10:44] Knwn4Trbl: lol
[10:44] ViperGTSR3g: a third party came and starting dossing both of our websites XD
[10:44] ViperGTSR3g: and it just so happpens that he had been affiliated with ZG XD
[10:44] ViperGTSR3g: so BWhacks totally came crashing down for a while after that
[10:45] ViperGTSR3g: so much to the point that Ghoztcraft was providing webhosting for BWhacks for a bit
[10:45] Knwn4Trbl: i was around for that i dont remember what all happened though
[10:45] ViperGTSR3g: lol
[10:45] ViperGTSR3g: yeah that was some hectic times
[10:45] Knwn4Trbl: i love it :D
[10:45] ViperGTSR3g: I kinda drifted away when the little doss thing started
[10:45] Knwn4Trbl: im always the one to go fight it out
[10:45] ViperGTSR3g: hehe yeah it was entertaining
[10:46] Knwn4Trbl: speaking of....
[10:46] Knwn4Trbl: i have a confession
[10:46] ViperGTSR3g: :O
[10:46] Knwn4Trbl: lemme find the chat log
[10:46] ViperGTSR3g: rofl
[10:46] Knwn4Trbl: you will love it ;)

Interview *
1. When did you first start hacking Starcraft?
when i first started playing in 2003
2. So what types of hacks did you make?
oh i invented unit suicide :D
fuckin dt we got in a fight about that
i made it in one language that Overflow didnt know
so he took it to dt and had him convert it...
i dont even know dt but i know he is a dick
3. What kinds of programming languages have you used?
vb c++ uhhhhhh
and that one that i cant remembers name
bahahaha
thats about it though
ill try and remember
cant believe its been 4 years
4. Are you planning on getting back to working with Starcraft in the future?
i have been thinking about sc2 for a while
yeah lots of opportunity there
and many original idea's
5. What other hackers have you helped along the way?
not too many of them used it though
Agent_god would be the most successfull
Killer_Kevin too
i got Permaphrost into it :D
6. And what other hackers have you worked with back in the days?
i talked to Overflow, he helped me quite a bit
7. How did you end up residing with ZeroGamers.com?
haha good story
back in the day when i got into sc i made a small free site for hacks
well i met 2 other guys that had the same thing going on with a 2 small free site's
so we all linked up and became "affiliates" and shared eachother banner ad's
well we became good friends and decided to just make one real site and created GamerzFx.net
those 2 other guys were BoredNerd and Lights
after a couple weeks of people attempting to hack our site and causing drama we met n8 and thought it would be a good idea to join up and work on zerogamers with him
since then we have went through a lot together
me and n8 even started a business
and i traveled up to canada once to visit him
and he came down to party with us in seattle too
8. What kind of business was it?
it was based off of web advertising mainly
9. So how did you come around to creating Knwn.net?
haha, i had that site on the same server as zg
i just felt like sharing some of the programs i make so that they have some purpose and at the same time have a site for all my friends to check out the pics i take from parties and what not
10. Why did you have to take it down?
well me and some guys made a nice little setup that steals myspace account
lets just say that i uploaded it and in about 3 days i had like 6k accounts
ViperGTSR3g: rofl
ViperGTSR3g: including mine >_>
oh yes you remember that
well myspace found out and tracked it to knwn.net and threatened to sue us and zg and blah blah blah
so n8 freaked out and we erased the site just so they wouldnt have any proof or anything
i planned on putting it back up but i was always busy
then i stopped making programs too so there wasn't much of a point
i was actually thinking about starting a new site
but i cant stick to one idea
and im leaving to iraq in like 2 weeks
Small update **
1. Seen any fighting going on?
Knwn: lots
2. Got caught up in any?
Knwn: not really
3. So what's a day in Iraq like?
Knwn: umm
Knwn: it was hot until this week
Knwn: now its really cold in the morning and at night
Knwn: i work with iraqis all day and escort them so they dont do anything bad, if so i shoot them :D
Knwn: its true! :D
Knwn: its not too bad
Knwn: work on base like mexican slave labor
Knwn: :D
ViperGTSR3g: I hope the shooting part hasn't had to happen
Knwn: not yet
Knwn: close though
Knwn: i almost got shot!
Knwn: like 2 weeks ago by a sniper!
Knwn: it was crazy :/
Knwn: i was standing by my truck putting on my armor and then i got shot at from off base and he missed by about 4 inches and hit my window!
ViperGTSR3g: ho shit
ViperGTSR3g: wow did you guys find him ?
Knwn: nope
Knwn: he was way off base
Knwn: shot through the fence
ViperGTSR3g: the bastard
Knwn: yeah probable one of the guys that attack us with mortars
