    Oh, so this is who this infamous Gricer chap is.

    There used to be another uk contractor forum back in the day, cant remember the name/url.

    It was an unmoderated forum full of uncensored swearing and some racists and anti semites used to hang out there.
    If i recall one of the member(s) even posted pictures of the holocaust and would laugh at them.

    It was a real cesspit at one point. Although eventually they cracked down on the worst aspects. The uncensored swearing remained.

    I guess it closed some time in the naughties.

    And this Gricer poster became homeless and has been trying to hangout here ever since.

        Whatever you’re insinuating - you won’t find any racism in my posts, son.
