CollabVM Wikia/Forkie
Forkies are mentally diseased n-words who think running fork bombs (shitty programs that keep opening themselves) is really funny. The typical forkie will be extremely desperate in attempting to run their shitty fork bombs. They are the most desperate people on CollabVM and typically will stay for hours at a time until either everybody leaves or they finally get bored and go away. Forkies typically do not return afterwards but a few stick around for a few days or weeks. They are almost always a guest but sometimes they pick a name for themselves.
A example of a fork bomb programmed with batch:
:s start cmd.exe goto s
Forkies are not only present on Collab VM. Forkies are known to be frequently present on socket.computer and a few other websites that offer a controllable virtual machine.
Lists of mutants forkies
- BSOD-esque (called Tottally Forkie) : The most severe mutant, Users Trick appeared around the end of 2020 to make it even more forkie, such as changing the language of the browser or the operating system, changing the screen resolution, putting a wallpaper containing NSFW etc. The concept is BSOD
- unknown-esque1 (called pornfag) : Users putting pornography either on UserVM or on the CollabVM main server (which banned it in early 2021)
