I don't need to put any spin on why it was deleted.
It was hidden amongst something around 200,000 pages of tat you would have had to sifted through anyway.

Nobody did
He'd just come in & start bitching about how he was worthless & hated his grandmother and how he couldn't talk to girls and all that stuff.

Sometimes he would go on for 40 pages plus.

"Dude, I dare you to delete the shoutbox records."

"What?! No way man! Do you know what Yac does to people who do that ****?!"

"I double dog dare you."

"It's on like Donkey Kong!"

True, but he didn't realise it would actually work.

Possibly the best thing he did was appear in the comic that GentlemanJohnny drew of him crying at his computer.

Sometimes I still trip over that and piss myself laughing.

Yeah, I had found a page that listed all the Vbulletin Moderator shoutbox codes, and someone had dared him to try out the "/prune" function. Six years of shoutbox history, gone like that!

The way I remember it was a few members were trying that prune command and it wouldn't work and so they called a mod to try it, Freebase did and the rest is history.

I'm pretty sure there was thread about feminism in the Current Events forum that started the whole thing. Boo Boo's gender politics were pretty fucking archaic and I think some of our female member at the time (Lateralus I know for sure) called him out on it. I was among the banned, but I never participated in that thread, I think he was just deleting people at random.

ba dum, tsh!

:laughing:

I really do hope boo boo's life has improved since then. A lot of his e-drama I think stemmed from his own issues and insecurities he had in real life.
