I went to an open day at my secondary school and did that, but they didn't actually teach it as a GCSE, only French, German and Spanish. We learnt how to say hello and some letters and that's about it.

So that's Russian - elementary on my LinkedIn then.

I only took French mind you. I actually got a job lead for a large format print manager / fabricator 2 weeks ago, which upon closer inspection turned out to be in France... How they thought I would cope with that I have no idea :lol:

Maybe what they said about having a language was true... I can barely request Ketchup in reality.

I got a A* GCSE but the reality is that I feel I was taught how to pass the exam rather than actually learning the language

So, I was a member of ONM in 2008 or something ridiculous like that. I then joined SONM later on, and I just thought to log back into SONM for the first time in years, and it redirected me here. So hi!

Hello! I am online and it's 2am, that makes me a great admin, even though I do almost nothing.

Orange Rakoon is the real admin obviously, he pretty much has me bang to rights, the bastard. Just won't stop chewing on my knees expecting rupees to pop out or something. And I lost my ocarina.

I'm new here. My name is Bruce Williams.

Hi Bruce, welcome to the forum. Have you been lurking for a while or is this your first exposure to the place?

I like to think of GRcade as this random bit of driftwood, floating through the unending sea of the internet. At first glance you'd just think it was void of life, but if you zoom in you'd see hundreds of little barnacles or limpets clinging on for dear life, all chatting back and forth and having a great time. That's us.

Or something.

It's good to be back. Been years since I have been on any forums! Not sure if you were around, but I'd like to make a public apology for my series of evolution threads back on ONM. :lol:

A series of them? Did they slowly change as they went along?

I really can't remember exactly what kind of threads I created. I do remember a lot of my opinions were uneducated and controversially opinionated. The thing is, I got accused of 'trolling' many times, however, that really wasn't the case. I generally enjoyed my time there, and I met a lot of great people. I simply didn't realise what I was saying was just plain stupid and 'thick' :slol: :slol: :slol:

Ahh so through trial and error your personality gradually changed and was refined into the person you are today?

If my memory is correct, didn't you used to be called 'D.J'? I'm looking at your avatar and it looks vaguely familiar... Ah, brilliant, is there a way to erase that memory :slol:
