In my 5th year on boards at this stage and the only experience I have of Bubbles is from reading over the wiki and the old threads.
He was banned from boards by the time the OP joined! I think for relative newbs like myself arguing the merits of whether or not Bubbles is a LOTB is a bit like joining in a conversation half way through.

yes - he made challengemaster cry once using his awesome mastery of the internet (no joke)

I was only thinkin about Bubbles the other day, with the prank he played on that guy making him come into the city centre from Maynooth for promises of sex...Wish I still had those audio files, wouldn't have liked it to be me for definite but that doesn't make it less funny

After reading the Russian Wives thread, I dearly wish Bubbles was still on Boards.

The merry little prankster.

*TomTom* · 10-02-2010, 13:35

I just remember him from IRC, avoided for fear of ridicule.

That_Guy · 15-02-2010, 13:58

The Master told me about him at TLL beers on Saturday.

Yes a definite legend.

He was a legend of the boards (not in a good way, but it doesn't have to be "good" to be a "legend" surely...) but clearly, looking at the poll results most "modern" non-"old skool" boardsies have no idea who he is...

...which is sad.

it is sad indeed, Bubbles is already a legend...he goes back to the beginning...ya know, the good old days...when boards was boards. *sigh*

Just reading through a zombie thread revived in Retro, seems he was so caustic that even his username was banned

We're forever blowing bubbles, Pretty bubbles in the air, They fly so high, Nearly reach the sky, Then like our dreams, They fade and die. Fortune's always hiding, We're looked everywhere, For we're forever blowing bubbles, Pretty bubbles in the air

i seem to remember some prank pulled on boards (more than 5 years ago anyways) about some guy driving from kildare to dublin in a taxi for a 'ride' off some lady boardsie and posting the msn text and phone calls afterwards...

was bubbles the prankster behind this?

i think the victim was mr.vestak or somethin like that, i actually think i may have the mp3 of the calls on an old HD...

or i could just be going mad

BlackBoy · 19-09-2012, 17:04
