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

Happy Brithday Fox MaCoy!

Hello:
 Heheh yep, he can. Too bad it is almost a year he hasn't post in this forum, maybe he lost interest... or maybe lots of things happened (because lots of things can really happen), but I do hope this member will find his way back into the forum :yes .
 But still, this is his birthday, and a birthday is reason enough for us to start  a party! Happy Birthday Fox MaCoy, wherever you are!  :birthday  :DD  :smile  :angel  :lol .

I think he is deterred by the believe that his English was insufficient for the GOF. A sadly high number of non-native speakers are scared away by this. I wonder how many non-native speaker newbys are even aware of how many here are no native speakers and that they might get help from someone of their own native tongue :(

Anyway, happy Birthday to Fox MacCoy :birthday

Happy birthday, wherever you may be.   Maybe there could be a section where non English languages are allowed.  

 :birthday  :p  :DD  :lol  :wave  :smile  :!  :idea  :angel

thanks to all of you, guys. It seems, that I wasn't online a long time ^^.
Sorry, my english isn't really better today. Reading is no problem, but writing and speaking  :oops

Greetings

Hello:
 That is correct, I saw no problems with your english. The goal is that everybody can understand what you want to say, I can tell you that because I am not a native english speaker either.
 The best way is to practice, that's the trick :DD .

Oddly enough, I revisited this topic just last week on a traipse through memory lane...of course I didn't check to see exactly how old it was!

It's been a long time since you visited the GOF, Fox MacCoy, and things have changed a lot. I bet you have changed too! Happy birthday and I hope your next year is full of smiles! :cheers
