    Just so I know.

    Hamish = Bruno with a new login?


    I suspect that there are several posters on here that could possibly be Bruno, I doubt if Hamish is one of them, but would not rule him out:)

    His hate of property bears and worst still "BTL SCUM" was scary, he was even banned on YouTube.

    Who's Bruno when he's at home?

    This is Bruno arrested for a crime he didn't commit (well actually did by threatened to kill the members of HPC at a pub meeting with a AK47)
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4o3_lwp60T4&feature=plcp
    There was a posting on You tube recently by an individual suggesting that he may turn up at a social function related to your website that is apparently taking place on 8th July 2008 in Glasshouse Street, London, W1.

    The person who posted this on You tube suggested that he would turn up with an AK47 assault rifle and cause problems.

    For your reassurance, police from West End Central Police Station have
    arrested and charged Bruno Powroznik in connection with this.

    Our assessment is that the risk level is LOW as it appears to be a misguided prank and that such an attack will not happen.

    If anyone has any concerns please telephone Detective Inspector Andy McDonald on 020 7321 8870

    Was he a member on here? Many of you seem to know a lot more about him, though I've been around on this forum for longer than a lot of you who seem to know so much? I've never seen him on here?

    I don't think so. I believe it was just Hamish and Sibley who were kicked out of HPC and sought sanctuary here.

    His views don't seem mainstream and he seems to be suffering from terminal colour blindness.

    Oh dear if you admire Jonathan Davis don't watch this:

    I did think this video was quite amusing:

    Obviously it is from a bear perspective but I still found it amusing

    Bruno is a man with rather individual problems.

    He, I believe, sold his house in advance of a house price crash that never happened. Subsequently he realized he'd fallen for a load of BS from Internet experts and went Bad.

    He then threatened to turn up to a housepricecrash.com meetup with a gun (AK-47?).

    He later posted a video on YOuTune of himself which culminated in him sticking an umbrella where the sun don't shine.

    One of the HPC people on here like Hamish should be able to give more detail.

    No, that about sums it up.

    Bruno was one of the bears on HPC. He's always been a bear, not a bull.

    He realised he'd been conned by the HPC crowd, and lost the plot in a spectacular fashion involving death threats regarding an HPC pub meet and umbrella insertions on youtube.

    In a way, you have to feel sorry for him. It's clear there's been a lot of vulnerable/imbalanced people conned by that site. Bruno just went pop in a more public fashion than most.

    I think he went too far Hamish when he called STR's retards, surely at least a small perecentage of them were not retards and were just working within personal circumstances at that particular time (unlike Jonathan Davies of course lol).

    In fairness, he's probably not that much more imbalanced than characters like Abaxas or Brit.... He just realised he'd been conned a bit quicker, and snapped sooner as a result.

    I reckon there's a few more bears close to the edge.

    And not just the ones daft enough to have STR-ed....;)

  • I never knew Bruno in his heyday. He certainly looks like a card. You have to assume that stuff like this is firmly tongue in cheek.

    Can't disagree with you there, as ever your logic is sound.
