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

Hey everyone.

hello!
First of all thank you Rhombus for helping me out with getting my account activated - I am so glad to be here! :Mo I go by Hawk! I recently rediscovered my love for Land Before Time, and when I learned there was an active community, I couldn't resist.

I'm 18, I am a university student in the sometimes wonderful city of Chicago. I started watching Land Before Time when I was a baby (thank you to my parents for giving me this wonderful franchise to grow up with) and I genuinely cannot remember a time where these films weren't a part of my life. Growing up, my favorite sequel was probably The Big Freeze. I love all of the characters equally, except for Ducky who I love just a bit more.

My interests besides LBT are sort of all over the place, but for the sake of simplicity I'll say my biggest fandom would be Marvel (mainly the films, but I do read comics here and there). Not sure how everyone here feels about it, but I will shill the MCU until I die. :lol In my free time I play video games, do art, and chat online.

I'm running out of things to say about myself so I'll just stop there. It's getting a bit late and I have to be up early tomorrow, but I couldn't go to sleep without saying hello first. I'm hyped to be a part of this community, so I hope to see you all around!

Hey Hawk, welcome to the forum! Always good to see new people join.

What's your favorite Marvel movie? I have seen most of them and watching them is always a good time.

And what kind of games do you play? ^^

Hello there! Yeah, me was surprised ta' find an active LBT community meself! Welcome to the Gang of Five, buddy! :D
Would it be possible for swimmers and flyers to get more love around here? Both figuratively… and literally. ♥







That one guy who writes LBT fanfiction and accidentally makes them five times longer than he'd originally intended.

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome! :^^spike

@Mumbling  Infinity War is hard to top, but my favorite is Thor: Ragnarok! Also, Into The Spider-Verse (which came out just a few days ago) is actually so good. Not MCU but still highly recommend it. I'm also real excited for Captain Marvel coming out next year.
I play games on PC and PS4. Mostly I play 3D platformers and action/roleplaying games with a few other genres here and there. On PS4, Horizon Zero Dawn is my favorite game of all time, and I am slowly working my way through Spider-Man. On PC I just very recently started playing Dauntless, not sure how long that's going to last but it's fun for now!
What about you??

Sounds good! Infinity War is also definitely up there for me, lets see where they are going with Endgame!  :)littlefoot

Sounds good! I'm mostly a casual games these days due to time constraints. Play Pokémon GO while commuting, or spend some time playing on my Switch. Just recently got Stardew Valley there (again, I already owned it on PC) and been enjoying that.

Spider-Man on PS4 looks absolutely amazing. I have yet to play it, but the swinging around town part is absolutely beautiful. Same can be said for Horizon, beautiful, still gotta play it. A lot of PS4 games actually... I should use mine more often. Recently got a PSVR headset and have been enjoying Astro Bot Rescue Mission a few hours at a time. If you like 3D platformers, that should be a blast for you too.

Ohh nice. I haven't played Pokemon GO in a while, it drains my battery too much :opetrie and I don't have a Switch but I'm hoping to get one for Christmas. And definitely, Spider-Man and Horizon are gorgeous. I have put way too many hours into each game just exploring and taking photos. I unfortunately don't have a PSVR headset but Astro Bot Rescue Mission looks like a lot of fun.

Hello and welcome to the GoF Hawk!  :)littlefoot

If you enjoy Dauntless then you'd probably like Monster Hunter as well. I've put way too many hours into those games :p

Yeah, I was interested in Monster Hunter but I wasn't sure if I would like it. So I picked up Dauntless because it's free :p and I don't have PS Plus so I couldn't play Monster Hunter World online :cry

Howdy, welcome to the forum! I have to say I agree with a lot of the things you say, especially about Marvel!
I'll find something better to put here eventually..
