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

How did you find the GOF?

I found this place through a link on a YouTube video. Actually, that's also how I rediscovered it after my year of inactivity ;)

Just browsing through the sections here and I thought I should clear something up.  I only said that Novaflare referred me.  I'm going to give more information about that.

First off, after I started getting back into LBT I wanted to watch video previews about the different movies before I went out and downloaded them (this was when I was first getting into LBT again and I didn't own the movies anymore.  On top of that, I had only seen 1-6 as a kid since I got out of it before number 7 came out).  

Anyways, I went to this place called IMDb to watch some previews.  On one of the discussion threads, there was someone by the name of Novaflare who claimed there was a community of people who liked LBT, but they refused to give out the URL on a public place like IMDb.  So I found Novaflare's email address and emailed her begging her to give the the URL.  She did and I lurked around here for perhaps a day before I decided to join.  After I joined, I spent a few days before making a welcoming topic.  This was my first forum after all, and I had no idea what to do.  But I made it around here pretty easily.  I had a rough first year here but after that everything started getting better. :yes

A tough first year is practically an understatement. ;)  I'm glad we worked things out...imagine what we would have missed.

The LBT wiki is the most common way to find us these days.

I was browsing around for some LBT stuff, came across the LBT wiki pages a few times, then this forum. I thought I would join this forum sooner or later... and I did. :p

I found this place through the link on LBT wiki. But I didn't start posting until I got in trouble for posting an unauthorized sequel to Twilight Valley, which has been removed for a while.

I found the GOF through the Land Before Time wiki. I visited these forums anonymously for a few days before eventually deciding to join.

Jedi472 told me about it in a FF.net PM, I went to this site and wasn't originally planning on joining but something about this forum and its members made me do so.

I found GOF on some guy's profile on fanfiction.net. I was interested and wanted to see what it was so I searched it and whoop! There it was! So, I finally built up the courage to make myself a member now here I am, posting and replying. And as of now, I don't regret my decision.:D
