Guest hitoallusa Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 I think it was the screen id of the person who started this site? Is that right? I think he died a decade ago and our Oz took over the site, if I am not wrong.. Maybe others who have been here longer could elaborate on it more.

Hooboy was the screen name for the person who started the "other" site which "daddy" now runs. Hooboy died several years ago but I don't believe it has been ten years yet. Maybe seven or eight, at most. Hooboy was a friendly sort of poster and often engaged other posters in dialogue. He died suddenly while swimming. There was a lot of controversy over who would inherit the "other" site. Hooboy's heir apparently were difficult from what I read from the "other" site. However, everything ended up working out and the "other" site is running about the same as when Hooboy was alive and well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, everything ended up working out and the "other" site is running about the same as when Hooboy was alive and well. Actually, Daddy did not take over Hooboy's site. The "family" let the site die as they were not happy with the porn aspect of the site. They did use it for money for a bit but that didn't last over a year or so. In that time, Daddy ran the site for them. The family decided to close the site and Daddy opened his site. Some things he was allowed to take with him (things he did while he ran the site) other things were forbidden (things from when Hooboy ran the site). So, you are partially correct in some of your thoughts but not all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest CharliePS Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 Hooboy was the originator of this kind of site--a difficult person in some ways, but much loved nevertheless, and a good friend of Oz. He died in March 2005. "The Hooboy Pub" is named in his honor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
