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

Considering mine is digital and in 24 hours (like you Europeans use :p) I guess I can safely say as long as I can read it, I'll like it.  :^.^:

Going for an old fashioned look in a photo would you

a.) take the picture in monochrome (black and white)
b.) take the picture in sepia tone (what the Wizard of Oz was in before the rainbow :p)

Chess, because it's more of a challenge.

As a candy filler: peanut butter or caramel?

Ewww...that must purely be an American thing having peanut butter as a sweet filling/covering  :x Bleah! Caramel would be my choice...peanut butter belongs on BREAD as far as I'm concerned! :P:

Sticking with sweets...

Toffee or Fudge?

It's quite popular actually so I guess that's true. :lol:

Fudge, paws down.  Toffee is ok, but some things I just find too sweet and caramel/toffee is one of them.

Early bird or night owl?

More like the early bird on most days I suppose.

I prefer the time in 24 hours, even though I understand most clocks.

Do you prefer...

Eating more foods that's native to where you live?

OR

Eating more foreign foods?

Probably more likely to eat food more native to my area but if I'm away on holiday then I like to at least try the culture's food.

Do you prefer wacthing:

Nickelodeon or Cartoon Network (provided you have them)

IMO, they both suck.  <_<  Nick only plays the good stuff when I'm not awake or something like that.  CN has Boomerang with the older cartoons from Hanna-Barbera but that's a specialty channel and we don't get it anymore. :(


A quick read or a long novel?

That's a tough call.  I guess I'd have to say cold since my bad plant allergies make it hard to enjoy a moderate/warm/hot/humid climate around here. :( :(

Working in your comfort zone or being spontaneous and taking a chance every now and then?

Cant say I've ever bin to a beach by a river :unsure: so I guess that leans it in the only other direction. LOL

OK...You're faced with a messy situation (dunno...a fight or you broke your neighbour's window with a ball or something  :P: ) do you...

Stand and fight or take flight?

(The good old adrenaline moment...Fight or Flight?)

If it needs to be done, I'll stand and fight.

Do you prefer...

Strangely enough, Hershey's is a rare sight in the UK. I have had it before and it is nice but my personal fav would have to be Cadbury's! Dunno if anyone's heard of it outside of the UK

Animation techs: Do you prefer:

Hand drawn or CGI?


Stitch

Hand Drawn

It is good enough that the gang who made Lilo and Stitch used watercolors for the background (hasn't happened at disney since Dumbo).

Cartoon buffs: would you rather watch:

Rescue Rangers or Darkwing Duck?

I watched both of them and I'll have to give the edge to RR. I liked Darkwing Duck too, but if I had to chosseit would be RR
Dante's Inferno or Milton's Paradise Lost?
(yes I've read both of them :lol: )

Isnt the Pierce Brosnan movie "Dante's Peak" based on the novel Dante's Inferno? I liked the film but I'm not sure about either book since I havent read them.

Might have had this one already but:

Thunderstorms at night...Scary or Awesome?
