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

I Have An Idea

I have an idea so stupid it might actually work

What if we write a letter to Universal about LBT and then include all of our signatures to show them how many people care

I'm not sure how much good it would do in the end, but I wouldn't mind signing a letter. What can it hurt, anyway?  :ChomperImAwesome

Ill go ahead and write the letter

I did that back in the day. It was between LBT 7 and 8, I sent them like a dozen letters over a period of about a year. Since the franchise wasn't dead back then, it was mostly "thank you for making these movies", suggestions for future movie plots, fanart of the characters, basic kid stuff. They completely ignored me.

Then I wrote a single letter to GI Joe with similar sentiments, and they sent back a thank you letter with coupon for 10% at Toys R Us. So yeah. Save your energy and send the letter to a studio who actually cares.

Ouch. You'd hope those folks aren't in the studio anymore, but you never know. I'm sorry they never bothered to reply.  :littlefootangry

I’m pretty sure if someone were to send an e-mail to Universal, you just get an auto-response that says: “Thank you for your response”.

Then nothing else happens after that, and you end up feeling like you got scammed. :rhett_upset
