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

F-22 looked out over the valley and said "yeah it is a nice view'. "What valley are you from F-22' asked littlefoot. F-22 caught by suprise from the question said the first thing that came to his mind "Belka Valley' is where I'm from' said f-22. "Belka Valley? Isn't that a strange name for a valley?' asked littlefoot. "Yeah I've gotten that a lot from the places I've been' said f-22. F-22 sighed and started to sing "The dawn a brand new day, the sun beating back the endless night. "What song is that?" asked littlefoot. "Oh just a song I used the hear the herd elders sing.' said f-22.

Brian glanced up towards the lookout spot and pointed towards it

"I bet they have a wonderful view where they're standing at, Shall we venture up there, I myself would love to have a look at this wonderous valley."

"We got to wait till they come down, since there was alot of us and that land look like it couldn't support the whole group so we going up soon they come down" Wayne stated to Brian.

"Yeah that why we just be sitting here." Cera said in a sarcastic tone to Brian which he'd would of expected from Cera.

"It worth the wait, oh yes yes yes" Ducky chimed in.

Having nothing better to do for the moment Rick sat down and began talking with Longtail. "So tell me Longtail, where were you hatched?" This caught the little flyers attention as he looked up at Rick and said "None of your business!" Rick felt a little offended but shrugged it off and replied "Alright. Sorry."

"Is that a touchy subject for him?" Wayne questioned to Cera his voice not too loud so Longtail or Rick heard

"Guess so, but don't let it bother you, we be going up soon" Cera said looking up at the hill "Once those lot finished looking around for who knows how many times" Cera said getting rather boried just sitting and waiting for their turn now.

Rick didn't like it when it was quiet so he tried to strike up another conversation with Longtail. "Look I just want to get to know you better...can you tell me anything about yourself?" The flyer looked at the older longneck, and replied "Yeah...I guess...well I'm stubborn, I like to fly and if you ever ask me anything about my hatch day again...well let's just say you won't like my reaction."

But Rick just smiled as he said in response "Well I don't think your uncle will tolerate your actions too well." Longtail then shouted "WHAT DO YOU KNOW?!" Rick took a deep breath and sighed and looked into the sky and didn't say anything, he just nudged Longtail and whispered "Trust me...I know alot, but I'd know alot more if you just tell me."

Mim, Diver and Kor continued to look out enjoying the view.  Mim turned to look at the others, "You want to be here a bit longer or are you ready to go down and let the third group come on up?" She asked looking at the others.

"Longtail chill! his only trying to get to know you... geez" Cera said getting rather annoyed with Longtail's anger outburst.

"I can't remember when or where I was hatched or even who my parents are, I was found wondering alone by Rick and the herd he was in" Wayne said his and Rick's made up story.

Longtail then turned on Cera and said "Yeah, well maybe I don't want him to know me! Did you ever think of that?!" Rick needless to say was surprised as he knew Longtail was prone to have a bad temper but never like this. 'This is not going to end well.' said Rick to himself, at which point he stood up and took several steps back and waited to see what would happen.

"You'll want to..." Wayne jump between them

"Cut it out please... Mr Threehorn watching and do you really want him to come over here and get involded in this?" Wayne spoke out

Cera turn to the place she saw her dad before and he was still there eating some leaves "Yeah you got a point, fine, I'll drop it, only because you got a good point" Cera said to Wayne and turn to Longtail "Lets just forget this whole thing, or do you really want my dad to jump in... you know what my dad like"

Brian stood there observing the conversations

"I'd probably feel awkward myself if some stranger kept insisting to know so much about me. No offense, man."

Rick looked over to Brian and whispered "Normally you would be right, but I did create him, and so I do tend to know most of his quirks."

Longtail looked over and said "Yes...I suppose you both have a point, thank you Wayne and Cera." He then sat down and said "I do hope they get done soon I'm tired of sitting here."

"No problem at all, I just kind of hate aurgments so I would rather try and get it to end before it explodes so much that there no point to it" Wayne said to Longtail

Cera smiled "Sounds like more Longneck stuff got rubbed onto you Wayne" Cera looked over to Rick "Most likely from you isn't it?"

"I think I"ll go down and let some others come up.  The rest of you can remain up here if you wish." Mim said.  She then turned to go.  

Diver nods, "Everyone should get to see the view, they certainly should." She said from Mim's back agreeing with her.  

"Yea, let's go.  We can always return here later." Kor said and he turned to go down with Mim and Diver.  

"We don't want to keep this view all to ourselves." Chomper said.  The group of Mim, Diver, Kor and Chomper went down to near where the others were waiting.

"Ok, group 3 can go up.  Littlefoot and F-22 are still enjoying the view, but it there's enough room for the rest of you to go up too." Mim said.

"Yea, the view is better then it was last time." Chomper said a bit exited.

F-22 said to littlefoot "Well sometimes it's a stragne feeling when you're alone without your friends' "Yep" replied littlefoot. "Hey littlefoot who is that down there' asked f-22 pointing toward Mr thicknose. "That's Mr thicknose the oldest and wisest in the valley" responded littlefoot. "Really now' asked F-22. 'Yep' replied littlefoot. F-22 sighed "So have you been on any adventures' asked F-22 who already knew the answer. "Yeah me and my friend have been on many adventures' replied littlefoot.

Mim nods to Cera, "Sorry, got a bit carried away by  how the view looks and forgot the time. "

Diver nodded, "It is a good view, it certainly is."

"Yea, it's neat." Chomper said, using a small fist to gesture and add emphases to what he said.

"You ready to go up?" Mim asked Cera and the others. Kor decided to not say anything but look around a bit more at the valley that he'd not noticed on the way up.  He was thinking however long this dream was he'd best always stay near someone who knew their way around till he learned his way around.  Easier being a flier, he thought.

"Thats ok, at least we get to go up now" Cera turn to the others that not went up.

Wayne took a look up "Alright I love to see the view from up there"

"Then lets go" Cera came around behind him and give him a push and he starts walking

"Could of just asked you know" Wayne said to her

"Yeah, but that was quicker" Cera chuckled
