The latter is called deathworlders. It was written as a short story. The author disappeared for a while. When he came back, he started writing a whole web serial on the premise.

I also remember reading the former, though where is another question.

Thank you so much! I read that years ago and have never been able to find it since. I even asked chatGpt and it wasn't able to find it either. I'm going to go look it up now!

Glad I could help. I still remember reading the forum posts when the author came back from his hiatus. He was almost freaked out by the fact his throwaway story practically created an entire genera of story.
