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

On Friday, March 20th there will be a solar eclipse in the morning in many parts of europe :yes So check the sky if you live there, it only happens a few times in your lifetime ;)
Inactive, probably forever.

Sadly it has become the shabbiest solar eclipse ever over here. It is so overcast that you don't even notice any difference at all :(

I was stuck in class sadly, so I didn't get to see any of it :(

I had an excellent view and I also have something for those unable to see it:



And here's a single shot:


I'm surprised myself that my camera was able to show the sun's surface like that. The single shot even shows a sun spot.
