bnmjy Posted May 29, 2017 Posted May 29, 2017 I once kudoed hubbbb to the top of the leaderboard on the old boards. :poop:
NaBarney Posted May 29, 2017 Posted May 29, 2017 If they don't unban hubbb I'm going to lose my shit
Codename: Jackass Posted May 29, 2017 Posted May 29, 2017 Did Hubb ever reply in their threads? Sometimes. Once in a blue moon he'd reply to people in other threads as well, especially if they name-dropped him. Of course, I think the whole hubbb thing was one guy using a spambot for the lulz. Or maybe he was truly insane.
NaBarney Posted May 29, 2017 Posted May 29, 2017 I remember talking to him about his dad being like a real estate developer or something in Arizona once in a pretty normal way.
Codename: Jackass Posted May 29, 2017 Posted May 29, 2017 I feel like at the end there he was using a spambot. Maybe back in the day it was a real person. Or maybe he went off his meds and completely lost it, I don't know. I don't see how a normal person could derive amusement out of the way he posted.
Bouvre Posted May 29, 2017 Posted May 29, 2017 Me, for now. God knows how I'll feel about this endorsement in a few hours, but still...

Bouvre Posted May 29, 2017 Posted May 29, 2017 (n)ot FORSAKEN I always imagined hubbb was like some personified Umberto-Eco-/Mark-Danielewski-level of cross-cultural, cerebral puzzlemaking that one day would be cracked and reveal the reason why James Franco was trying to direct nearly-impossible adaptations of classic literature.

Are you saying that hubbb is James Franco? It all comes together. Now I see.
Bouvre Posted May 29, 2017 Posted May 29, 2017 Are you saying that hubbb is James Franco? It all comes together. Now I see. Would you be surprised, regardless of the truth?
Codename: Jackass Posted May 29, 2017 Posted May 29, 2017 I'm rarely surprised by anything I hear or read these days. I'm not jaded, I've come to realize that truth really is stranger than fiction. I used to think it was just a saying when something weird happened. Not anymore.

Yeah, that time I had the closest thing to a conversation with him was many years before Lithium got deleted.
Codename: Jackass Posted May 29, 2017 Posted May 29, 2017 Yeah, that time I had the closest thing to a conversation with him was many years before Lithium got deleted. There were a few times where he'd toss out something akin to a rational thought that I can remember but I think the likeliest scenario was an unhinged man slowly descending into insanity (which is the more dramatic, Pulitzer-worthy story) or some weirdo who liked to dick around on internet forums using a spambot and giggling at people trying to make sense of it.

Both are Pulitzer prize worthy to me, honestly.
Codename: Jackass Posted May 29, 2017 Posted May 29, 2017 I've decided that I'm going to write a one-act play about hubbb. It's probably not going to be very good but be on the lookout. You'll know it's me because of all the run-on sentences in the script.

Codename: Jackass Posted May 29, 2017 Posted May 29, 2017 You'll have to come down to the small town college where I intend to premiere it.
Mini_ghost420 Posted May 29, 2017 Posted May 29, 2017 Hubbb has transformed into one of my extra arms
Admin Posted May 29, 2017 Posted May 29, 2017 Are you saying that hubbb is James Franco? It all comes together. Now I see. See I was with you earlier when you said you weren't sure you could see how any sane person could derive pleasure from posting like that. But now that you bring James Franco into it, it really does make perfect sense.
Chapinator_X Posted May 29, 2017 Posted May 29, 2017 This forum has been lacking in graph charts of wavelengths and tectonic plates connected with Metal Gear references

Admin[/member] what did the mods generally think of hubbb, did they think he was actually a bot, was it discussed among yourselves
Admin Posted May 29, 2017 Posted May 29, 2017 Admin[/member] what did the mods generally think of hubbb, did they think he was actually a bot, was it discussed among yourselves Most of the threads/posts I saw seemed to refer to it as a bot.
Rumb0 Posted May 29, 2017 Posted May 29, 2017 Most of the threads/posts I saw seemed to refer to it as a bot. Maybe the older hubbb was a bot, but the newer/most recent hubbb gave human replies to posts that he liked.
