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

Longtail and Cayso met locking claws in the center of the feild. Longtail never took his eyes off Cayso waiting for the next move to come, and as he did he said "Well, nice to see you've finally decdied to fight like a sharptooth, now I'm sure your family won't have to laugh at you."

"And what about your family?..." - Cayso said still grinning, trying to get a hand free to attack Longtail. - ".. I bet they must be also proud of you, 'warrior with a big mouth'." - Cayso succeded in freeing his right hand and attacked Longtail directly, but since it is only a sparring match, Cayso just made a light scratch on Longtail's right shoulder

Longtail winced in pain, more from the comeback than the light attack he'd just recived. He looked to meet Cayso's eyes again and shed a tear as he shouted "Aside from my Uncle Cyrix, my family is dead!" His right eye then turned a birght yellow as he said "So, if you wanna fight...then let's get it started!"

Longtail then brought his tail down upon Cayso's head and broke the grapple by throwing him to the side.

Cayso stood up as soon as he landed, ignoring the beat on his head he replied - "At least you uncle looks like the kind that would never betray you or ... try to kill you!." - Cayso grabbed his left forearm, where his large scar is, with his right hand and noticed Longtail's right eye - "something is not right with that Flyer..." - Cayso thought and charged against Longtail once more - "... time to figure out some things".

As Cayso charged, Longtail let loose a feral and primal screech that sounded much like a sharptooth. He then charged Cayso as well and tried to head butt him with the crest on his head.

Longtail's screech was enough to stop Cayso from his charging, even if angered he still has his mind cold enough - "WHA!!!" - Cayso did all of his effort and stopped Longtail's head butt, not before having to take some steps back - "What are you?" - the Fast-bitter asked and since he saw he wouldn't get an answer quickly he managed to push Longtail far enough, and he gave a loud screech on his own too.

Longtail slid across the ground after being pushed by Cayso and smiled as he heard him roar back. Longtail then ran forward and as he did said in sharptooth "Now let's see who's been better trained...me...or you!" He then bared his teeth and readied both his claws for a real fight.

Cyrix stood up and said "This is starting to get out of hand....I wonder if I should step in and do something?"

Cayso sharpened his eyes again and bared his teeth while replying in Sharptooth - "you now has a sharptooth scent but you are also a Flyer... you will tell me what are you". Cayso gave a more evil grin as he began charging, his claws ready aiming for the Flyer's neck.

Longtail at the very last moment switched his footing and ducked under Cayso and bit down on his left leg...not enough to draw blood, but hard enough to get his point across as he said in sharptooth "I'll only tell you if you beat me first! And I promise you that won't be easy!" He then put more force into the bite drawing blood.

Cayso couldn't avoid screaming from the pain, but he then let himself fall down by by raising his right leg and making his knee to land hard over Longtail's chest - "(still in sharptooth)Don't dare to understimate me!" - He then used both hands to open the Flyer's mouth and release himself from the bite. Ignoring the pain, Cayso jumped away and charged again, this time with his head more lowered and a more raised tail to keep a better balance, still aiming for Longtail's neck.

Longtail smirked and said in sharptooth "Don't worry...underestimating you won't be a porblem...you're still too weak to challenge me!" Longtail then spun in a circle three times and shouted "Heres a trick I made to handle your kind....SPIN LAUNCH!" After the third spin Longtail shot off towards Cayso like a bullet, also aiming for his neck, and baring his teeth

"Looks like things have stepped up a bit.  I wonder if they are still sparring, are realling fighting, or somewhere in between." Mim said.

"It is hard to tell." Littlefoot said.

Longtail's attack didn't make Cayso to change the grin off his face, on the contrary, he knew what he could do to stop the Flyer. Cayso let himself to fall on his own back while raising his legs and grabbing Longtail's shoulders with his feet, and using all of his strenght to repel the attack. Not before using his own counterattack on his favor allowing him to stand up.
Cayso then run very fast and grabbed Longtail from his neck while he was still on mid-air - "(still on sharptooth) So, the great Flyer's attack didn't work against someone 'too weak' as me?" - Cayso then slammed Longtail into the cave's soil.

Longtail snarled as he felt Cayso slam him into the ground. He then shouted in sharptooth "You really think this is the end of the fight?! THEN YOU ARE WRONG!" Longtail then whipped Cayso with his tail several times in the face trying to get him to let go.

Longtail's tail whipping worked well and Cayso was forced to release the Flyer's neck. So he gave a jump back and hissed in anger while replying, still talking in the Sharptooth language. - "You are right, the fight is not over yet!". - But then Cayso grinned evilly again. - "So, why don't you show me more of your Fast-bitter killing techniques?"

"Looks like it is getting pretty intense." Mim said as she continued to watch the fight.

"I Just hope none of them get hurt." Littlefoot said watching the fight.  "That one looked like it hurt." He said.

I know that Cayso can take much. But not too much. If that is going to be too worse I¥ll try to stop them. But until now, I don¥t really see a reason.

Longtail gave a wicked smile to Cayso as he said "Fine...I'll show you my favorite three...Brutality, Animality, and Fatality!" He then charged forward and jumped into the air, spinning like a top and finally brought his tail around at a very high speed.
He the at the same moment brought his claws, and teeth down upon Cayso's neck...or tired to hoping that he wouldn't move out of the way.

Cyrix nodded to Ecco and said in reply "Yes, only if it goes too far will I step in as well...oh dear...Longtail is using his favorite three Sharpteeth killing moves...I do hope Cayso is ready for them."

"Maybe Cayso has some of his favorite moves that he can use also." Littlefoot said.

"It would be interesting to see if he does." Mim said.

At a fraction of a second, Cayso could figured out what is Longtail. The little Fast-bitter just smiled and jumped to counterattack, this time, he aimed for his left wing - "If he's a Flyer, or part Flyer, then I will impair him if I can hurt his wing." - Cayso thought as he kept his left arm to try to protect himself long enough from Longtail's teeths while his own teeth and right arm aimed for the Flyer's left wing.
 Both fighters clashed in mid-air.
