I am sorry, friend, but what does HPB mean?
It's an old school diss
High ping bitch/baby
I was one of the first LPB (low ping bastard). Back in the 90s, some servers would just flat out ban you if you were one or the other. I was very competitive in Quake/Halflife/Counterstrike and even had a shirt with the Ethernet symbol and LPB under it. I fucking loved that shirt.
I was i.am/zzottt if anyone remembers the first days of Counterstrike
Thanks for explaining, comrade. May Shub-Internet be kind to you.
