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

Fort Necessity, wasn't it? Funny name for a Fort, but somewhat fitting as there weren't many necessities the "fort" was not a subject to by that time. From what I read the makeshift fortification barely deserved the name fort.

Christopher Lee. He was one of the hugest LOTR fans in the team, had met Tolkien in persona and knew Tolkien's elven languages before the movie was planned.
