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

Un-mothballing :)

Hello everyone!

It's been a long long time since I've had the pleasure of roaming these parts. I've nearly forgotten how it felt like. But when I checked a rather seldomly used mail account, I saw the message about the tumultuous last few weeks, and I was saddened by such news,  but when I visited this new location of our old site (an oxymoron, I know :p), it all came rushing back.  :wow Years worth of many good moments with many of you people here. The emotions became overwhelming and so I decided to login in. I am impressed that almost everything important is still there! Great job saving the work of generations, guys! :yes
I have a lot of catching up to do with you, and I hope I have not wronged any of you the last time we spoke. I owe you many more things to say, but this introduction should suffice.

I'm in relationship of 3,5 years with an awesome woman who has greatly changed my life for the better.  :yes

I worked for a couple of months clearing neglected irrigitation canals, then I've been retraining as a pharmacy technician, completed a year of internship and now I'm working at a local pharmacy. I'm planning to get car of my own soon.

My world view has evolved somewhat, I've expanded my musical and movie tastes, my hair is graying quite visibly now, and my English has deteriorated. :lol
