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

The good thing about LBT...

...is when you're worried about things like power outages, LBT movies are good things to watch to keep you from panicking. I admit I freak out during power outages easy, and when they have the potential to occur. That's what makes LBT so great! :D


Sorry if this doesn't really belong here, I just felt like I needed to get it off my chest, and didn't know where else to put it. No where else looked appropriate. Also, I freak easy and am paranoid, as I have anxiety issues in my family and Asperger's Syndrome...I've even got Stone of Cold Fire up in a tab...Pterano can keep me calm better than anyone else...

If it works for you, that is the key thing.  That movie is a good movie, as I recall, just the odd bit about the rainbowfaces seems out of place.  But that isn't till the end.

I mainly watch for Pterano and Rinkus. I like Sierra a bit, too, though. Somehow, I can't imagine Rinkus without Sierra. Yeah, actually before I was watching the 4th one. The next one will be the 12th...dang, I should've been specific and said LBT MOVIES! Ah, well. Just listening to "A Very Important Creature" has been put me in a better mood.

Edited the first post to be clearer. My brain is not a clear-thinking place right now. Sorry about the confusion.

They are not.  Everyone does need to have ways to cope with it, especially in places where power outages are regular at certain times of the year.

Well, so far things are good, and I finally managed to get some sleep, and have eaten. I feel much better after watching LBT 4 and 12, and since things have calmed down a bit.

That is great that you have gotten some sleep and are feeling better.  There are the other movies if you need to watch them for some reason.

I was going to watch them all up to 12, except 11 and 13...not a big fan, just randomly. I might still do that later tonight.

Sounds like fun.  You can spread it out over a few days, maybe watch the tv series also if you have access to that.

I haven't been able to find that on any site that doesn't charge...which sucks, cause I wanna watch an episode of it. That IS a good suggestion, though. I use a Random Number Generator to choose which movie I watch, and I REALLY hope it lands on 7.

Hey, whatever works :).

Oh, and stay warm.  I know how it feels to go without power for days in a snowstorm :confused.

Thankfully, we didn't loose power, and I CAN stay warm. I just figured: I've recently become obsessed with it, maybe it can distract me. It worked.

a power outage during winter is certainly no fun.  Hope you have sleeping bags or blankets.  

have you heard of Dink? It was a tv series similar to lbt, and it has some episodes on youtube.  Also there is Dinosaur Train, though that is meant to be educational.

We were well prepared in case, but, thankfully, the winter weather is past us. I have heard of those. I might check them out. It can't hurt, and I HAVE been wanting to check out Dink. I also saw another one: Denver the last dinosaur. I remember the theme song, but I don't remember much else. I might try and find that again.

good thing you were prepared.

You should be able to find at least some of those, including Denver, on youtube.  Good luck.  It may keep you busy or a while.

Which is what I'm planning on doing. I'm feeling much better now, and everything's melting off. I can only hope this is the last big winter storm we have...

They are going much better for me. I feel so much better now. This thread can now be closed, if you need. Thanks you guys, for helping me. I didn't freak out nearly as bad as I normally do. This makes me realize I made the right choice in joining this community
