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

Cyrix ran over to others and said "Alright. Come on now everyone...lift!" he then put his arms under Scarface along with Ecco, and started to try and lift Scareface onto Ali's mother. 'He's a lot heavier than I thought!' thought Cyrix to himself

Mim worked her arms under Scarface carefully, trying not to make any wounds worst.  She lifted with the others and adjusted her lifting speed to theirs so hopefully Scarface would be lifted as close to evenly as possible.   She worked with the others to lift him not Ali's Mother's back.  "We're.... doing well." Mim said, pausing to adjust herself since Scarface was heavier then he looked like he would.  

Ali's mother remained as still as she could so it would be easier to lift him onto her back, as well as already having squatted as low as she could.  

"I hope he'll be ok." Ali said watching them work.  

"I'm sure he will be.  He just needs some rest, and maybe some nightflowers." Diver said to her.

Ecco worked carefully with the others, lifting Scarface up to Alis mothers back.

Cayso was helping too, holding Scarface's neck while trying to keep his own claws away from there - "Wow, he is heavy, it is a releif we are many here to lift him." - Cayso thought, keeping his eyesight focused on both Scarface's neck and where they are all going, to avoid falling or tripping.

Blue Eye & Mim continued to help the others to lift Scarface onto Ali's Mother's back.  

"Just you rest." Blue Eye said to Scarface, "You'll be well soon enough." He said as he continued to lift him.

"We should be near the night flowers now." Ali said to keep up everyone's spirits.

Finally the group got Scarface on Alis mother back. So, anyone here who want to write with him, to take care that he doesn¥t slip off? Ecco asked and looked in the round.

"I may help doing that" - Cayso replied to what Ecco said - "besides, this can be a unique chance for a sharptooth like me to be carried by a grown-up Longneck and I may say this is fascinating, but I wish the circumstances were different." - Cayso then looked up ans asked Ali's mother - "I hope you don't mind if I remain here to help keep Scarface safe until we get the Nightflowers."

Ali's mother shook her head as she moved it to be closer to Cayso, "Someone has to ride up there to keep him safe and from sliding or falling off." She said.

"I can help, but I cannot do it alone, so I hope Blue-eye or Ecco can help me to do this." - Cayso replied making a smile, still amazed and somewhat nervous to speak with someone as big as Ali's mother.

Well, if you need help. Sure, Ecco said. But if you, he looked at Blue-Eye, prefer it to ride with him. Then you can.

Blue-eye nodded, "I would like to, but if you would like to ride with your friend..." He said, 'I would understand." He said.

"How both of you ride, then you'd both be with your friend and with 3 it may be easier to ensure he doesn't slip or fall of." Mim said.

"That is an idea, what do you think about it?" Ali's Mother said.  

"I like that idea, I certainly do." Diver said.  

"They don't look to large for mother to carry." Ali said looking at the 3 fastbiters & her mother.  

"And how often will you get to ride a longneck." Mim said.

Eeh... Ecco was unsure, if that wouldn¥t be to heavy for the longneck. Well..., eeh. Just if it¥s really okay Ma¥am.

Onyx smiled and said "If you're feeling unsure about it I can always keep him secured up there instead. Just a thought."

Cyrix looked over to Mim with Longtail tied to her back and whispered to himself "You're going to be okay Longtail...I promise!"

"Well, I would like your help on this Blue-eye, because you are far stronger than me." - Cayso then looked back to his friend smiling - "I'd also like your help here Ecco, but if you think that also having you up here will be too much for Ali's mother, then I'll understand." - Cayso would also like having the help of Ecco, but it would also be helpful if his friend remains with the others, specially if there are any other dangers.

Well, let¥s wait what Alis mother has to say to that, Ecco said and looked up to her.

Cayso waited for Ali's mother response too, and he is hoping that she will agree. After all, to have Ecco's help would make things much more easier.

Ali's mother nods, "I like the idea, and you can also take turns if you start to get to tired." She shook her head, "I don't think you would be to heavy.  We can give it a try if you would like." She said.  

"Kind of exciting being on another adventure together." Ali said to Littlefoot.  

Mim nods to what Cyrix said, "Yes, you'll be well again in no time.  This will be a story you'll have fun telling others about." She said smiling a bit to try to keep Longtail, and others, spirits up.

Yeah, it¥s really nice. We should do things like that more often. Littlefoot smiled and looked over to Ali.

Oh, well. Now that starts again, Cera said nerved.

Ecco looked at the huge longneck, then at Cayso and Blue-eye. Well, okay. If you say so. We can give it a try.

Cayso smiled after seeing that Ecco will join them too. - "Then we can move now." - He then looked to Ali's mother - "We are ready ma'am, we will hold Scarface so we can depart as soon as you and the others are ready." - Cayso took a moment to take a look at the surroundings, amazed on the great advantage Longnecks can have due to their size.

Ali's mother nods, "We can set out if everyone else is ready." She said.

Ali nods looking at Littlefoot while smiling, "I would like that, I hope we can have more adventures and stuff like that in the future." She said.

"I"m ready, is everyone else?" Mim asked.

"I certainly am." Diver said.

Blue eye looked around, seeing things to an extent how adult longnecks must see the world and was amazed.   He put his hands on Scarface to help hold him in place and from moving around.  

I'm ready also." He said.
