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

Cayso noticed Ruby - "Do you want to participate too? come on, it will be fun!, and the more we are the better".

Okay, if you want. Just make sure that Ecco is safe.

"Are you sure Ruby, we don't want to make you do anything you don't want to do." Littlefoot said.

"Awesome, then let's do this..." - Cayso got even more enthusiastic. - "... and since you are the ones living in here, then you are free to give the signal to start this race."

"Ok, who wants to give the signal to start?" Littlefoot asked looking at Ruby and Ecco."

Why you look at me, Ecco asked. I am just sitting on Cayso. Haha. But you can give the signal if you want.

I am ready Ruby said. I am ready too. Ecco said while waiting at the response of his friend.

"I'm ready too." - Cayso said with animosity, with his attention focused on Littlefoot while waiting for the signal.

Longtail by this point had gotten bored and was pacing around in circles waiting for the others to return. He then stood up and said "that's it! I'm going to go find them...this is taking way too long!"

Before Cyrix could tell him otherwise Longtail had flapped his wings and taken off down the path the others had traveled. Cyrix sighed and said "Mim...do you think that was a good idea for him? I know he's going to get himself hurt."

Mim shrugged, "Sometimes one is unable to stop another from an action that may bring them harm.   Though hopefully nothing will happen except his finding his friends."

Littlefoot nods, "Ok, everyone get into position and get ready." He said looking at the others and got into position himself.  When he saw they were in position he then said in a loud voice so they would hear, "Go." He said then took off himself running for the place where the others were.

Cayso heard the signal and began running too, as fast as he could. - "Come on Ecco, we can win this!" - He kept on running with a big grin on his face.

Longtail had sped up flying faster in the hopes of reaching his friends faster and as he rounded a tree, he was flying far too fast to see the others coming from down the path and just happened to run head first into Littlefoot who was leading the race, and bounced off his head and then bumped into Cayso who was only a few steps behind him.

Longtail then landed on the floor and on his head with a groan. "W-what did I hit?" he asked while trying to get to his feet.

Cayso had his mind focused on running so he didn't see Longtail until it was too late, but still he was able to make sure that Ecco didn't hit the ground by landing first. - "Ouch!, Argh! what was that!?" - Cayso was not really able to stand up with Ecco still over him. - "Are... are you ok, Ecco?, I am just feeling all dizzy and squished.".

Littlefoot was focused on running and saw something about the same time it hit him in the head and bounced off his head.  

He jerked to one side in startlement and tripped and flipped landing on his back and sliding a foot or so.  "Ow, ... what happened?" He said as he tried to get back up.  "Why is everything spinning?" He lay back down and decided maybe it was best to wait till everything stopped spinning around.

Longtail moaned again and rolled onto his back to get a better look around. He noticed Cayso and Littlefoot on the floor as well and said "Sorry...I think I bumped into you guys while flying too fast...sorry."

Cayso remained silent for a few seconds, the he replied - "Well, at least there is nothing broken on me, but I have a Leaf-eater over me that eats too many of those star-shaped leafs." - Cayso managed to smile at the situation - "Is everything alright there Littlefoot?".

Littlefoot looked at Longtail then Cayso, "I didn't know you both had twin brothers." Littlefoot said, seeing 2 longtails and 2 Caysos, "and both talk at the same time, not like Rocky & Dusty." Littlefoot said still laying down on his back.

"Well, I suppose it could have been worse." - Cayso replied to what Littlefoot said with much curiosity in his face. - "How are you Ecco? everything ok up there?" - Cayso waited for Ecco's answer while also asking Longtail - "Are you feeling ok Longtail?, that was, hehe, quite a bumping".
