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

Ducky shivered, "It sounds scary, it does, it does." She said getting closer to where Littlefoot and Spike were.  

"It is a good scary story." Littlefoot said.

"Well that's sort of the point of it" Twiz pointed out, "but don't worry, like I said I don't think it's really real or anything".

"And even if it was real, then two big sharptteeth like me and Terri would be scary enough for it and it would not dare to come here" Dein said self-confidently "Either way, you have nothing to be afraid of, kids".

"Yeah, my mommy and daddy could beat anyone up," Chomper smiled.

Ducky nodded, "We are safe here, we are, we are." She said nodding.

"Yes, but if you want to stay safe, then I advise you not to go to other half of the island. Fastibters live there and unlike me or Terri they have no reason for not eating you on the spot" Dein said seriously.

"My dad's right, don't go there," Chomper added sternly.

"Then we will follow your advice and remain in the vecinity without going farther, thank for letting us know that." - Trod said while nodding.

"That will be wise of you" Dain said, yawning. He felt tired after hunting. "I need to take a nap now. Yess... A bit of sleeping will be good..." he yawned again and then.... he fell asleep right on the spot.

"Big sharpteeth can be spooky even while sleepiing." - Trod said as he gave a small smile. - "Well, two of us are sleeping, any one of you, that are still awake, have any idea of what to do now?."

"Want to go to the beach and swim in the not-big Water?" Chomper asked.

"That doesn't sound bad... I just didn't want to leave Rhamphy alone." - He thinks for a minute. - "Well, we can go since he seems to be covering himself with many leaves in a very high branch... if the others agree."

"That does sound like fun, it does, it does." Ducky said nodding.  

"It does sound like fun." Littlefoot said smiling.

"Let's go" Cory said. "Yeah" Kit nodded. "Ok...long as this water really not big" Petrie said.

Terri smiled as she watched her mate fall asleep so easily.
"I still dont' know how he does that." she whispered to herself as she too yawned and quietly set her head down to sleep.

Cyrix and Hunter however had been a few feet away speaking privately to each other while the children told their stories, and once they were finished they were able to catch the end.
"Well...I suppose you'll need a grown up or two to watch over you young ones, so i'll of course be more than happy to help."

Hunter chuckled and asked Chomper, "Are you serious? I've visited the other side of the island dozens of times and I've never seen any fastbiters...or maybe they just know not to mess with me...which would be good in any case."

"Well, they probably hunt too, which is why you never see them," Chomper deduced.  The little sharptooth then walked over to his mother.

"<Mommy, want to come with us to the beach?>"

Terri opened her eyes as she heard the question.
"Okay...sure." She replied as she stood up and yawned. She then turned to follow the children to the beach.

Ducky climbed onto Littlefoot's back, "We'll have fun, we will, we will." She said smiling happily.

"Yea, I bet we will." Littlefoot said.  He then looked at Chomper who knew the area best, "Do you have a place in mind?" He asked him.

"There's aplace where the water is nice and warm and shallow," Chomper smiled.
