Nobody can be told who Bubbles is. You have to see him for yourself.

When is the return of this fabled one, and what message will he bring to his followers? Come all, we must prepare the way for Bubbles.

What happens in the Thunderdome stays in the Thunderdome.

On a serious note, I posted something to a forum who's sole reason for existance is to troll people. I was under the impression that anything goes there. It's a trolling playground. What I did was no worse than what everyone is saying about a certain someone on there.

I am obviously mistaken, seeing as I have been banned from there. Seeing as there was no charter I thought anything could be posted there. Sorry for being mistaken.

Isn't Bubbles supposed to be unbanned today under the infamous deal done with Dev?

I chatted to him recently in IRC and i'd say himself and pighead will have to thrash it out for the Boards.ie Christmas No. 1 funniest post.

I remember posting a picture of a solitary bubble on the Bubbles forum, and Bubbles said "nice bubble".

It was a magical moment...

You know there's a clear difference between written insults, and linking to a site that could literally get you fired in work, in deep **** at college, and above all that, it ****s with your pc, opening Outlook and attempting to send messages.

Anyway, whats the deal with this december 12th thing. I actually forgot about it, but now my interest is reawakened. Is he coming back? :v:

Look, I'm not trying to pick a fight or be argumentative. I could easily say "You shouldn't really be on boards.ie if you're in work", if I wanted to be a smart arse. Please don't bring the threads in AH or any other forum down by bringing up what happend on The Thunderdome. If I wasn't banned from there I would reply there. If anyone would like to talk to me about it, just send me a PM and I'll be glad to reply.

Back on topic, I like the idea of a Pighead / bubbles fight for funniest post

The old school heads know he is the king. I remember being in his house and he put sugar cubes in his diet coke, even Karen poped in and said hello (in saying that i think i was 15-16 meeting up with a 28-32 year old to discuss websites)
