First of all, welcome. Second of all, not everyone that pushes all-in over a raise of yours is an arsehole and third (and most importantly), punctuation is your friend when writing a message.

You have to accept that any large freeroll such as the Hubble ones are going to take insane amounts of luck to win or go deep in. People will play loose and aggressive and often you will get your chips in good and come out in second place but that's the nature of the beast.

My advice if you have the patience for these things is to play fast and loose, to take every coin flip going and once in a while you will get lucky a few times and build a stack. Trying to play 'good' poker in these things is pretty much a pointless place to be.
