So he does exist! And I thought he was a figment of my imagination. A phantom.

Went to use the chat room for the first time and I can't believe it.

Why does someone with a knowledge of IT ,hate it so much.
Is a java applet window more prone to letting code work undetected.

[edit: Ah, nerin beat me to it...]

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.

That depends on what you consider a Newbie! There must be a lot of "Newbies" judging by the poll result! Surely 12 months of reading and posting no longer qualifies as a Newb, as you put it?

Genius, absolute genius.

I remember reading it a few years back.If I can find it again, I'll post it up.

Bubbles is proof of the saying, "internet, serious business".

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.

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
My Mother use to sing this song, now she was a Real Legend, my Father too ---- Bubbles, you're indeed a real ****ing LEGEND Good on ya Mate

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

I once met this man called Bubbles. Seven feet tall he was, with arms like tree trunks, eyes like steel - cold, hard. Had a shock of hair, red like the fires of Hell...

He asked me for a set of DeVores jocks... A promise I agreed to, but as yet undelivered...
