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

A few ideas

I've had a few ideas going on in my head for the last couple days. Please critique and comment.

1. A Land Before Time role-play that would take place during the first movie. Most would be off to find the Great Valley. There would be segregation, racism, and terror all around. Whoop whoop.

2. A LBT role-play set in the time of the Lone Dinosaur. Obviously, since we know next to nothing about that time period, I figured we would have to discuss it and 'draw out the details' beforehand.

3. A LBT role-play that takes place during the present time [or at least where the gang has been in the Great Valley for a while]. A wandering herd of Styracosaurus bearing bizarre crimson tribal markings has requested permission to stay in the valley for the night, but they are nervous and speak of a terrible event that will happen soon. When someone asks about this terrible happening, the Styracosaurus simply become very still and do not reply.
Note: I will try to expand this idea if people like it. This may contain some possible dinosaur mythology later on. All the myths mentioned in the series [the Lone Dinosaur, even the tale in the TV series about the Pterosaur who swallowed the two T. Rexes] interests me greatly.

4. Long before the Great Earthquake, the Great Valley had been home to a brutal society of Therizinosaurus. Their history and mysterious disappearance has been etched on a section of the valley walls, a section that is forbidden for the young dinosaurs to venture near. When Pterano returns from his five-year-long banishment with tales of beasts with claws as long as a longneck is tall...well. It'll be carried out from there.

I like the first idea.  It would be perfect for my characters because that is when they first met.  It would be easier to introduce them that way.

Thank you. I think that would be best for my character, too, but I want to see what other people think of my ideas.

I like all the ideas. But I think I like the first idea best of all.

The first one sounds interesting.  I also like the second ideabut I like the forst the best.  We have plenty rps that take place during the present movies.

(Heh, both Grievouses are replying. Funny)

I think the first idea sounds quite good, but I would be open to all of these ideas.

Hmm. There seems to be a lot of support for my first idea. I'll need a couple more inputs before I start figuring the details out.

Actually, I'm pretty sure no one is going to out-vote my first idea, so I'll start a topic on that right now!

Well it all depends on which you think might work out.

Acutally I like the first idea best and the second idea isn;t bad either....and it actually makes sense, but my OC won't be living in the great valley when everyone else arrives....but I say go for it! :yes
