More and more I find myself becoming the old man criticising 'kids these days' for thinking they invented everything As I reminisce on the old days where all we had was some ASCII characters, a few special colour and formatting tags, and a /me to top it all off.
hunter2 was one of the top handful of highest-rated quote on bash.org, a site for voting what the funniest* IRC quote was, which was a big part of early 2000s internet culture.
bash.org is down, and they didn't show "added by" dates anyway, but here's a wayback snapshot of the hunter2 quote from June 4, 2004. So yeah, hunter2 fully predates reddit. (Going by my memory, that quote was totally there in 2002, too.)
* This is early 2000s internet culture so "funny" is 90% pointless cruelty and misogyny.
i believe historically Bash goes down like that randomly from time to time. I actually did find the original post from there last night when I looked and it worked without issue, weird: www.bash.org/?244321
tbf hunter2 is an irc reference that practically predates reddit but understandable

ah, yes, old bash.org, from back when irc quotes, flash videos, and weird geocities pages comprised most of the worthwhile content online.
edit: Huh, it's dead. When did it die?
