Optimistic Nut Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 Anyone remember the forum on the NUFC.co.ujk website? Was pretty good, got closed down when some bot spammed it with porn. Don't remember many username names other than Tanzo and Cheyne Gauci who was an Australian fan (DJ goes by the name of DJ Toon these days apparently).

Wandy Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 Hope Toontastic hasn’t gone for good as it’s the closest thing left to what Skunkers was like. Skunkers was basically the message board equivalent to being on the terraces in the 1980s. You said stupid shit that you didn’t believe or mean in the slightest. Pretty much everything was said for effect and to get a reaction & nothing more than that. There would be the odd divvy who would turn up and actually take the place seriously but they were quickly mocked for not being in on the ‘joke’.

My recollection of it is "anything goes" Not as in its OK to be racist, for eg, but as in one could verbalise in whichever fashion one wanted without fear of causing offence.

Not bad for someone barely scraping 4’2”. I would love to go back and read Skunker’s gerld section. Home to some absolutely world class meltdowns. In its heyday that place was brilliant. Alas, it’s long since gone to the big server in the sky. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pie self published a couple of zombie novels he co-wrote with his brother. Murr somehow read it, got in touch and they've since co-written a couple of books together and become good friends. There's talk of some of their work being made for television as well. Spawny as owt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure I was on there a few months ago - can't remember the reason why. Site still offline - not sure if a permanent or temporary thing. It's not offline, they just haven't replaced the SSL cert yet. Chrome probably doesn't like it but Edge should be ok. The admin is on holiday and has no access to replace the cert yet.

Mine was changed to Nooneatmyfuneral by the main mod, think his name was Windaz, he set it up and ran it until a couple of years before it died. God I miss the racism, paedo allegations, general abuse and fuckwittery of it all. Remember wtdog the mackem? He was always good for a bit of abuse back and forth.

LordJake Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 There were many highlights on Skunkers, my favourite being some makem from RTG coming on and giving it the big’un. Within a few hours everyone knew his name, where he worked and his penchant for ejaculating on slippers. Classic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
