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've seen a lot of street signs ranging from strange to funny, but this was just weird.  I was just thinking about Ruby when I saw this sign (sorry about the bad quality.  Cell phone photo):



Pretty nifty huh?  I'd love to live on that street.  I've also seen street names such as "Furness" and "Rekdal". :lol

A bit of googleing did not provide me with any pictures, but credible indications that there are also Cera Streets, Ducky Streets/Roads, Petrie Streets/Roads (one of which is supposed to be in London), Spike Street (that one obviously brought a lot of results about road blockers), and Chomper Street :)
No certain sign of a Littlefoot street / road, but I admit I didn't search very long.

Obviously Great Valley Roads and Streets seem to be in ample supply too, but again people don't frequently post pictures of roadsigns online ;)

Shucks.  If it were one word, I would have bought it. :D

That is a really cool revolving-360-degree image thing on that house bid.

Try looking down the road and clicking the little white arrow.  You can actually move down the street!

Ahh, technology is so insane these days. :p :D

Probably a million dollar home.  Actually Ruby is a pretty common name (at least among a generation or two back) so I'm not surprised its a street name.
