I was on AllHipHop (IC) and that shyt was like the Wild Wild West from around 2004-2010.
Those exposures were brutal, females getting their intimate pics leaked, home addresses leaked, job information leaked, and at least one person got their social security number leaked.
I remember there was a female poster over there named Cali or some shyt (big thick light skinned sista with big breasts) she was real pretentious and snobby intially, she pissed the wrong guy off and he came back and exposed her for having a whole webcam show service. You could pay for a subscription to it. It's funny now that this exposal kinda foreshadowed the Onlyfans pages of today. I remember dudes coming back and posting videos of her with dildos in her snatch and the whole nine. I think there was even one video of her getting smashed. Cali's whole little online vibe and posting style completely changed after that situation.
I remember a poster named Ducky literally seized control of the whole forum and was leaking DMs and all kinds of stuff. The mods were helpless against him.
There was another poster there named Choice that posted under several aliases dude was a world class hacker. There was literally no one he couldn't get dirt on or find out about. Posters put respect on his name and no one got out of line with him at all. I believe certain posters even started going to him when they had a problem with someone else to get him to try to get dirt on them.
Those dudes lived for that shyt over there, then the site went down for like the better part of a year for upgrades. It came back with a bunch of neat reactions like co-sign, nosign, GOAT, wack, feelings, etc.
Most of the posters did not come back though. In the end, it was probably 3-4 dozen regulars holding that entire forum down in the final years and months. I was one of those posters holding it down, because intially I refused to join another forum.
Some other posters from there supposedly went and started another forum called the Waven or some ish like that I don't know if I'm spelling it right, but I never found that forum.
I went and posted on NikeTalk for a minute but didn't really like it, and that board didn't get as much traffic either. I remembered when the Coli tried to invade the IC so I said let me check out the Coli. I lurked here for a few months before I started posting waiting on registration. I finally reached out to an administrator on the page and they opened it up to let me in.
Do you remember the infamous "The Jamal is now your toilet" thread by that dude Gambino34 ? Now that dude was a certified hacker. The IC was filled with al ot of them
