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

Hello all, TAP here

Dunno how I managed to work my way back over here but I did. Hello all  :)

For those who don't know me I used to be pretty active on here, around 2012-2016, back in my cringy teenage years. Now I'm in my mid-20s...and unfortunately I'm still cringe, just in different ways lol.
Basically I was known as the one dude obsessed with Petrie before Diddy joined. Made some friends here, wrote fanfiction, did some audio stuff, was pretty active in captioning stuff. I swear half the stuff I've done on the Caption This section was waaaaaay beyond family-friendly or otherwise cringe, especially in later years. Seriously I dunno how I wasn't banned years ago for the content of those alone haha. Fortunately those years are long over and now I think I'm a pretty chill dude. LBT still holds a special place in my heart but maaaaan have my tastes expanded over time.

If anyone on here remembers me from long ago, I look forward to getting reacquainted with you. To anyone on here who's joined in the last few years that I haven't interacted with, hello. :)
I don't really intend on becoming active on here again but at the very least I wanted to catch myself up a bit on what's going on. Glad I'm doing so now :)

Hi TAP! Welcome back :D

I too had my cringe teenage years on this forum. Now that I'm in my early 30s I look back on those posts with nostalgia and feel very happy that they are still available to me for reference, since my memory isn't the best.

Hope you've been well!

Thanks, Mumbling! Lots has happened with me over several years' time, but overall I'm doing pretty good currently :)
Honestly I'm the type that doesn't like to go back and re-read my old posts on stuff, but maybe I will soon.

Thanks for the greetings everyone else :)

I've not been keeping track of the exact number, but it's pretty co-o-o-ol and reassuring to know that, despite so many older members here haven't been active for quite awhile... they do seem to come back every once and awhile... even if only for one day. Welcome back!!! Nice to meet yo-o-oou!!

Welcome back to the forum! :rainbowwave
I too, recently posted pretty much for the first time in four and a half years (I only had one post in the years between Oct. 2020 and this week haha).
Growing up I was a big LBT fan and had seen all movies and TV series episodes. On the forum, I was formerly known as Hypnobrai until Nov 11, 2017.

In recent years, I have gained an interest in the production of The Land Before Time, particularly the deleted scenes of the original film. New discoveries have been made in the last few years and continue to be made, so I feel that it is a good time to contribute.

I have always loved sharpteeth more than any other creatures in the franchise, such as the fourteenth film's Carnotaurus, the fifth film's Sharptooth, and #1 by far - the original Sharptooth.

From 2017-2019, I was an administrator for the LBT wiki.
