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

What are you reading?

RAWR! Someone got to read Dune for school! On top of that, I lost my copy of Dune, so now I need to get my hands on one again.

On another note: Current book- Empire of Ivory by Naomi Novik

(Sidenote: Post #5000)
I lost my copy of Empire of Ivory, too. Now I have no new books to read, so I'm rereading the current books in the Temeraire series that I have. I'm rereading Black Powder War right now.

I am reading:

Dinner at the New Gene Cafe
Why There's Antifreeze in Your Toothpaste
The Smartest Animals On the Planet
Latias's Journey
A medical sociology textbook

-----------------

Latias's Journey is the single fiction piece there. It is a dark PokÈmon fan fic but even then, some chapters are very dark and extremely violent. But at the same time there is comedy (rather...surreal though)

Poster of the GOF's 200,000th post

Please read and rate: Land Before Time: Twilight Valley - The GOF's original LBT war story.

How did you like it?
If you like Victor Hugo's books you may want to read "Les Miserables" as well (unless you already have read it).

Got a new book yesterday, Stauffacher (the book shop) has changed quite a lot.  It was quite different..and I'm not sure if I like it...

Anyway, new book was something that I saw (pressed for time) and thought I should just see what it is like: Caesar by Colllenen McCullough.
