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 Obsessed Are You?

I'm pretty unhealthy when it comes to this.  I'd say in the past 2 months, 90% or more of free my time is spent watching LBT, or doing other things related to it.  What's a healthy percentage?  Which catagory do you fall into?

What a poll...less than 5%.  There are just many other movies/shows to watch as well.

I'd say about 5-10%, usually just working on the music videos.

I'd say about 5-10% only becuase I watch the movies on rare occasions...

Me too. :^.^:

EDIT: Okay, it's probably been more than that for me. I've been doing a lot of LBT related stuff the past couple of days, but it's all been a direct result of this board.

i spend probably around 10% due to being on this board, otherwise it would be way lower.

I just realized something.. Doesn't this belong in one of the LBT sections of this board?

well, it didn't exactly fit in with LBT sequals or LBT tv series, so I put it here.  I really didn't know where to put it.

Moved.

While it's true, this topic isn't directly related to the sequels, The Fridge is dedicated to non-LBT chat. The LBT sequels are the most likely connection to such "obsession" so I moved this topic here.

I watch Land Before Time on my iPod in bed. I have my favorite songs in audio form on my iPod. I even have Land Before Time AMVs on my iPod, which I watch regularly.

I personally haven't watched the movies recently, but I basically spend all my time on this and reading LBT fanfics. I'll watch a movie one of these days... <_<

I haven't read (exlcuding Twilight Valley), drawn, watched or written anything LBT in going on two years. :o So I voted less than 5%.

When I rediscovered LBT a little over a year ago it would've been near 100% but currently under 5% i'd say.

Under 5%. I'd like to devote more time to reading fanfictions, but I simply can't afford it.

I wouldn't call my passion for LBT an obsession but given the opportunity to watch LBT I would. I haven't watched much LBT since the turn of the year but there will be times when I'll get nostalgic and switch it on. Maybe about 10% ish if I was to put it too a scale but I've always known when enough is enough.

Not as obsessed with it compared to a couple of years ago.  The most I'd do now is watch the films when I want to and listen to some of the songs, although I do listen to the songs regardless.

Maybe 10%. Besides spending time on this board, I have tried to work more on my fanfic, and I managed to finish my music video that I've spent so long on. If I had to say before coming to college, it would have been much higher.

I misread the poll question. I spend less than 5% of my total time on LBT. That would be about 20% of my recreational time.
