The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

So you're a Dinotopia fanfiction writer? Awesome! :smile I've read a lot of Dinotopia books, but I've seen very little in the way of fan work.

Welcome to the Gang of Five! :D

Oh my god! Hey! It's Kingdomkey23! Great to see you!

I got your PM. I'm not sure how I can help. I don't even know about the Dinotopia series.

But anyway, glad to see you on the Gof.

I have some knowledge of Dinotopia, having seen the miniseries, listened to an audiobook of book one and part of book 2, looked through books 1 and 2 at the library, looked through Journey to Chandara (which I bought), saw the animated movie, and saw part of the TV series.

My favorite incarnation of Dinotopia, though, is the book series and audiobooks of Dinotopia. Not really too much of a fan of the miniseries, TV series, or animated movie. I do like some things about them, like Freefall from the miniseries and TV series, but for the most part, I prefer the books/audiobooks.

Welcome to the GOF Emeraldsunstone1990 :)
It's very nice to have another Dinotopia fan with us. Sorry for the late welcome. I have been on a trip through Sweden and Norway during the last week without any internet connection.
Do you know the Dinotopia audio plays which Kacie (DarkHououmon) already mentioned? They are based on the first two books by James Gurney and I think they are a really awesome addaptation of the books.
I was very disappointed with the miniseries which I found fell really way too short of the Dinotopia of the books while I did like the series (not quite the Dinotopia of the books (which in any case would be a really huge thing to achieve) but certainly closer to it than the mini series.
Anyway, please feel hearty invited to join our discussions or start threads of your own :yes
