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

Stranded

"Do you want to remain? You can if you wish, yes you can." Ducky said.

"I guess it's like my grandfather said. Just living is a risk.  Living is not without risks." Littlefoot said as he looked over at Hunter.

"This island looks like it is a safe place indeed, but I think your presence will be very appreciated as you seem to be very strong, Hunter." - Trod said as he turned his head back to see Hunter.

Rhamphy walked some more, seeing that the Mainland is still far. - "Wow, I didn't know the Mainland was this far... but then again, I have no idea how I managed to get to the island in the first place."

"You can stay at my family's cave if you want Hunter," Chomper offered, still moving. "Maybe you could get to know those fast biters, I'm sure they'd be glad to hunt you."

Hunter stopped walking for a moment and thought about the proposal she'd been given by Chomper and the others to stay...but she quickly shook her head and said aloud, "Nah...Cyrix would be lost without me...and he needs someone to keep him on his toes. I couldn't just leave him."

Cyrix laughed out loud as he heard Hunter statement.
"You may be a bit unsure of yourself my dear, but I do welcome your company!"

"We are staying together, that is good, it is, it is." Ducky said nodding happily.

"yes, we better hurry." Littlefoot said.  "We don't know how much time we have."

"Yes, hurry." Ducky said waving a hand to indicate for the folks to continue along the land bridge..

Twiz, Kit and Petrie continued flapping across with the others. As he hopped from rock to rock, Cory frowned up at them, "I still agree with Cera that you guys got the easy way of crossing" he said before paying attention and jumping once more.

"Cory" Kit laughed a bit, "why don't you let someone give you a ride like Ducky is" she indicated the other swimmer on Spike (?). "Aw, it's ok" Cory said, leaping to the other rock, "I got it".

Kit shook her head at her friend's independent attitude, but kept on.

Ducky looked at Spike and patted him, "Are you getting tired Spike?" She asked with concern in her voice.

"<I hope there is nothing wrong happening.>" - Rhamphy said as he stopped from walking, he stood up on his two legs as he shook some dirt from his hands.

"<What is it Spike, did you see something?>" - Trod asked since Rhamphy cannot speak the Sharptooth language.

Cory turned back as the others asked if Spike had seen something, then glanced forward again, "M-maybe he was just saying hold on like...don't fall" he said, thinking that sounded like a better thing than having seen something scary.

"I hope it is nothing too bad for us so we will not be kept stranded in the island." - Trod said.

"What can you see Spike?." - Rhamphy asked, waiting for an answer to see what can be done to solve it.

"Then why did you stop?" - Rhamphy asked Spike, but he added - "Ehh... I am just curious, I don't want to sound rude or anything like that."

"Ohh, that is nice indeed. Hehehe, I didn't really realize that." - Rhamphy said while smiling.

OOC: I didn't realize that myself either :smile .

"Oh...well sure I'll climb up, thanks Spike" Cory said, climbing on top of the spiketail.
