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

A World so Far but so close

"Whatever" Topys grumbled then walks away with Tria.

"Don't worry about daddy he will be alright once he got to know you" Cera said to Stripetail "But you say that simple part like we stupid or dumb... you should try to not word and say it like that..."

Latias looks at Cera the Stripetail "She has a point. maybe if you have some power or something with no one watching make yourself look like a dinosaur... something furry like you probably don't even exsicted on this world and you will get nothing but weird looks" Latias suggested then said "I could do that easily myself since I have the power to look like anything... like this" Latias showed them and she glowed with particles flying around her and in seconds she was standing on the ground looking like a longneck but about twice as big as Littlefoot showing her age being around 13-14 years old about 2 to 4 years older then Littlefoot.

"What how! she... she a Longneck!" Cera looked stared and Petrie landed on her head to see if it wasn't a trick of his eyes

"Me feel her head she is longneck!" Petrie said with a freaked out voice flying off her looking down with shook.

Littlefoot looked at Latias with a surpised look on his face "I miniced your kind well the age that matches my age of course... it a ablity I have to make myself look like other creatures it another defence to protect myself from others" Latias stated

Littlefoot watches with stunned eyes and a gaping mouth.

Donna was also in awe.  "Wow!  You look almost as old as my sister Goanna!  I just hope you don't act like her..."  She giggles at the thought.

"I don't know how your sister acts" Latias replied "Each have their own personlites... mine is that I hate trouble and I rather hide from it then fight it and like to have fun with friends that I meet" Latias said to her then looked at Littlefoot

"Are you going to look at me opened mouthed with shock face and shocked feelings all day?" Latias asked Littlefoot

Stripetail turned to Cera. "what I said, i said in fustration. I am used to having very complex conversations, covering all sorts of strange issues. Plus, to be honest, i have little patience for those who are not able to understand matters as quickly as myself. Hence my rebuke to your father." he Turned to Latias. "I can change my appearance, it is called transfiguration where i come from, and I happen to vbe very good at changing my appearance. but for now, I will stay as I am."

Cera looked at him with a shake of the head "How about turning into a Rainbow Face?" she suggested. "Those dinosaurs we met act just as weird as you and talk all this stuff about the Great Beyond... if you can change that is and if you can I still remember what they look like and you could look at what I saw from my head... just that part please..."

Cera said seeming to believe what Stripetail had said after seeing Latias change and now thinking that is a good idea if Stripetail would even though he was weird and odd to her then looked at Latias.
"she over there seem to have it naturally how ever that happened but you with your wood thing will make heads turn and soon they will ask you to leave." Cera spoke to him getting some idea what going on but not all still speaking in simple terms.

"yeah me see me no like what might happen... we all peaceful but new and very odd will make them no trust you first sight" Petrie said flying up to Stripetail "Looking like dinosaur like us will make you get along with others and they no have go at you or stop staring. mama saw you and she say no trust you at first sight. me no lie about that" Petrie said to Stripetail flying around him.

Both of them seeming to get the words just about right making Stripetail think about what both the Flyer and Threehorn said to him

Very well Then" Stand back please" Stripetail said . he Closed his eyes and focused, and his staff gave off a blinding glow. Transfigurus" He called out in a loud voice. and he began to glow and change. In a twinkling he had changed himself into a RainbowFace, his Body growing in size , his snout enlongated and turned down. and his skin turned into odd-colored split of yellow and brown. Only his eyes stayed the same his staff vanished into nothing. He steeped forward and looked askance at the shock on Cera and Petrie's faces. What?" he rumbled.

"You look like a Rainbow Face part from the tail" Cera almost started to laugh "I think you messed up a bit there" Cera bursted out laughing and Stripetail turned his now slightly longer neck to see his normal tail instend of a Rainbow Face tail part of the torso and legs on the side.

"Maybe you should finish it off" Cera calmed down from her little laughter

STripetail looked nonplussed. and gestured at his lower body, which quickly changed  into the correct form. "i must have not been concentrating' he muttered to himself as Cera began laughing again.

"Hey don't worry only us two saw what happened and none of us can do that power of reading minds or changing form and that... we might not be like you but we like what we are" Cera said with a few snickers at what happened "But you have to laugh about it. you found this place so great you kind of not fully foucs on when you changed into a Rainbow Face" Cera said to him

Petrie nods "Me think so too. Great Valley is no place to be complaining about if it means you make mistakes. Me see things that slip that no mean happening but we all leave it as it is and move on. Me like having fun... do you Mr Rainbow Face?" Petrie asked with a wink from Cera as a dinosaur walk by not taking any notice of Stripetail just seeing him as a normal Rainbow Face.

"See what I mean no one took a look at you they just see you like a vistor from far away lands of our world" Cera said to Stripetail "Be the way what is your name?"

Cera looked up at him "Erm I don't think adults would look right playing games we play like not it... it would be even weird for me... Latias would fit into games like that cause she just a little older then us" Cera said with a raised right eye

Petrie looked at Cera and nods landing on top of her head "Me have to agree on that it would be weird for me too... game we play is kid games" Petrie said looking down at Cera.

"Couldn't put it better any other way" Cera nods once "we just kids you know... not adult like you and others around you like daddy. games we play we play cause we kids"

Cera took a thought again then looked at Stripetail "If you was too look at it as our eyes wouldn't it look weird to you seeing a adult playing a game like 'Not It' or Hide and Sneek?" Cera asked him wondering if he would see what she and Petrie met.

naturally what adults consider fun and children consider fun are two different things. indeed  what is fun to adults would not be so for children, they'd quickly beccome bored. the trick is to fins something that both can play, not as simple as hide and seek, but also not complex that kids don't understand the rules.' stripetail nodded.

"That won't do for us... if you want to have fun with us you need to be around Latias or our age to have fun with our games. and maybe you will" Cera said with smile "But you couldn't do that... that impossible" Cera said turning with Petrie away both thinking that he couldn't become their or Latias age.

My dear you have no idea of what I can do. Stripetail said in a voice that stopped cera and Petrie cold in thier tracks and they turned around with a scared look on thier faces. "Cronoe Revesum" he commanded and he shrank down in size and quickly became a young Rainbowface.
