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

Two Years Ago Today

Two years ago today, there was a great big fire on the mountains where I live. I don't know exactly how long it was, but some say that it was in betweeen a mile and a half and two miles long. It was pretty close to our house, so my sister and I were pretty scared. We knew we were probably gonna end up evacuating, so we packed the stuff we needed. So we waited nearly all night for the police to come and tell us to evacuate...but they never came. Soon I ended up falling asleep at like four in the morning. I don't really know about my mom and sister. My mom was on the computer and my sister...well she was already asleep. The next morning was pretty foggy, we could barely see anything more than ten feet away. But the fog eventually cleared and we ended up seeing the aftermath of the fire. Burnt trees...and a lot of them. But other than that, it almost looked like as if the fire never happened. Strange...but true. So yeah, we never really had to evacuate. The firemen took care of the fire the best they could and I believe we owed them a great thanks.

Just thought I'd share something interesting with ya.  :yes  :p
Petra is a variant of the Greek name "Petros" meaning "strong" or "rock." Andi is a variant of the Greek name "Andy" meaning "masculine" or "brave." Therefore, I am tremendously brave and strong! :lol
