This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Damn, so all those people asking for my password were nice? :(

I actually bought Builder's Club for someone back in the day. They asked first. I was pretty clear on the risks, though.

Was that when I was 12, or something? I was always quite honest.

Or black hat hacker confirming that a stolen credit card works without raising red flags

Or hindering a possible investigation by implicating the kid that owns the account.

I've had people on a local forum who bought me games on Steam and I later wire transfered them money in bank because I didn't have credit card yet back then. I had some presence there as security and tech "guru", but they didn't actually know me.

One even lend me his entire Steam account for a while to play his CounterStrike:Source coz he wasn't playing it. Later I bought the Orange Box myself, that one was actually from retail lol, still have the box.

I'm not clicking on this link. I suspect a yacht is not the only thing that are never gonna be given there.

My youngest son has a story just like this, but he would have been a toddler without anything to play Roblox on in that time-frame.

Damn, I wish he liked anything like beetles or stamps or whatever, even half as much as he likes the most disappointing sorts of video games, and no, I don't mean trash games, I mean abandonware of the RFID/janky-peripherals variety. Oh, and fortnight/roblox.
