How did you hear about Nixers?

Long time nixers
Kept seeing it in screenshots on /r/unixporn, and I googled it one day and arrived here.

I got an account and lurked on the forums for a bit, but actually never saw the IRC details until I was back on /r/unixporn one day and noticed "Unixhub IRC" in the sidebar.. and that's when I joined the Unixhub IRC for the first time (And, I should mention, used IRC chat for the first time)

Was specifically searching for an irc channel to become part of, there was one I frequented a few years ago and that was fun so why not do it again. Found the post on /r/unixporn, and here I am.

I've heard about UnixHub, because of hanging around in r/unixporn. Typed `unixporn` into googles search bar and found you ganja smokers at first entry. I've looked into your screenshot thread and thought 'dats muh tast'; lurked around some other threads, and there was no OS- or Distro bashing. Simply enjoining *nix's world.

So, I signed up.

Well, Distro bashing in irc for fun is another case, then real hating users for using Distro A, or Distro B. The diffenrent between most forums (&irc) is, that users not be hated from other users for their flavour. I love that.

Yeah, first comes the distro-bashing, THEN we hate users. :3

Found it via /r/unixporn.

Distro bashing is always user bashing ;)

If I remember correctly, yrmt bullied me into joining, to get the ball rolling in the beginning.

I found this site when a bunch of folks made an exodus from some FBI honeypot where the average users were only interested in skid kiddie - point & click - hax apps.

I'm definitely not one of the "good ricers," but rather resemble one of the skid kiddies I've mentioned above.

Why not create the **Unixhub Monthly News**.

Maybe we could finally get "A monthly news update of UH in the style of newspaper report.", just like the News subforum says :p

And I am very sorry to report that that member is me.
I used to be an original member, well I guess a few things changed, mostly my things.

We make mistakes, because we are humans,
that is something we can't be proud of.
But we are more then just humans, we are geeks
and that is something to be proud of.

Well everywhere, but nowhere if you know what I mean.
Going to get my things back together :D

Maybe I'll see you on the IRC soon

I was first introduced to UH by this user, http://forums.unixhub.net/member.php?act...ile&uid=33, which I used to talk with a lot. He was also from derpforums.net Unix section. I haven't heard of him in a while.

Joomscrap was down and everyone told me to move over here, I thought it was a troll till I came over.
Use to look a hell of a lot different back then.

If it makes you feel any better, I'm still here. I just lurk like crazy.

I found UnixHub through Beastie and Venam on derpforums. With all of the "Ubuntu or Linux Mint" type threads, I felt like I was wading through too much crap to find any good stuff.

And then unixhub.net...

Oh yeah, him too! I have no idea where he's been.

He's still alive probably. His last visit to DerpForums was on 01-16-2014.

Though he did post some nix porn on 12-03-2013:

I came with the exodus from HackForums. Someone had the link in their signature and I moved over. It's been a couple of years now I think...

Couple of years since you've moved from derpforums to here? That doesn't sound accurate.
