"Must be another one..."

This is the page for the Within Hubris Forums.
You may be looking for the website Withinhubris.com.

The Within Hubris Forums are messages boards that have had several incarnations over the years. Throughout Johnisdead, the "Newbris" incarnation of the forums were used by players to archive information, theorize, and interact with characters.

History

The Within Hubris forums have had several different incarnations over the years. The original Within Hubris forums, dubbed "Oldbris" by the players, was created by Jadusable and hosted in Invisionfree. These forums were to be used in Arc 3 of his ARG. On Oldbris, players discovered various accounts belonging to canon characters and a locked board named Wayward Horizon, where souls of various ascended Moon Children were being guarded by Kelbris. Unfortunately, "Oldbris" was short lived, as the forums were shut down on August 8th, 2012 by the police.

Later that same day, players created a reconstructed version of the Within Hubris forums that was dubbed "Newbris". Now being hosted on Zetaboards, these forums contained a variety of new, customizable features that the original did not, including badges, customized emojis, a built-in chatroom, and more. Johnisdead itself began with a post on "Newbris" from TheLaw, asking players if they were aware of the newly created YSHDT.com. Players created an individual topic to investigate YSHDT.com titled "yshdt.com - Side-Story thread". It was in this thread where players first spoke to various characters such as Helper, Patrem, and SKM. Once the YSHDT Arc of Johnisdead ended, the thread was eventually renamed to simply "johnisdead.com". Canon activity continued to take place in this thread well into the Our Horizon Arc.

In 2018, Zetaboards was bought out by a company named Tapatalk. Taking priority in minimalistic, mobile-centric designs, many of the customized aspects of "Newbris" were removed. In response to this, players created another incarnation of Within Hubris forums dubbed "Tribris". These forums were hosted independently from sites like Zetaboards of Invisionfree, as they were established on the newly created Withinhubris.net. These forums aren't to be confused with Withinhubris.com, which is a general player-owned website that hosts several wikis. Despite this, canon activity continues on "Newbris" as opposed to "Tribris".

Updated 15/5/2015:
Old game (yshdt.com) has ended (sort of). There's a new ARG coming up apparently. and Dawn/Eve told me to rename this topic... I'm down with that, but i'd like to conserve everything as is for Legacy reasons.
Anyways, this threat will be intended towards this new ARG from this point onwards. I'll leave the original post here, spoilered~~, to conserve it's historical value~~

Spoiler: click to toggle

Ok, so a little while ago this new guy posts in the Help Central asking when the ARG returns, and one of the links he puts up is This one here

A page called yshdt.com... not the full old "youshouldnthavedonethat.net" because that's a corpse.
In the page there's a zelda-styled textbox saying

"Im still waiting
Let's play again soon"

with some eerie music playing in the background, and maybe some figure in the darkness, I can't really telland honestly, it unnerves me to fuck and back, im a scaredy-cat, whatever
When inspecting the html, there's text saying


~~So..... New development hype or troll baiting us? Discuss~~

Oi, dont get pushy, we dont know. As i said, it could be a trollbait for all we know. and the domain owner is registered as private, so as far as my (little) ammount of skills in web tracking goes, that's as far as i got
I did as jad via twitter, but he has me blocked (Why? I dunno. Real smooth, jad) so chances are he wont answer me

If he is a troll, he's putting a hell of a lot of effort into this.

Also, I just noticed that subtle BEN in the background.

Yeah, I noticed that, too.
On my shitty monitor it's a lot brighter.

I'll give it the benefit of the doubt, after 4 years I'll give anything a chance.

Interesting.

Not sure about the use of the eyeless Link from TP though, that's never been a thing with the ARG before.

Even if this is a fan thing, looks like it could turn into something interesting.

Song is also called Game Over.wav, in case anyone is wondering.

aw man. ;3; i'd sadly give a great amount of things for this to be actual development hype even after all of this time. guess i get to keep my eye on this.

and hey. if it turns out to be a reeeeally late gamejack after all, i'm not sure i'd be particularly hateful either.

edit:
also hi
