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

"maybe if I get upside down I can tell." Ducky said and went to a nearby tree to lay down against it and work till she was able to get upside down with her legs against the tree and she looked at the shadow, seeing it upside down.

"<Any luck with that Ducky?>" - Trod asked the Swimmer.

"Is that a Longneck?" - Rhamphy asked, trying to think if it could be something else.

"Yes. It is as clubtail, Kit." Dein said, getting up from the ground.

"You did very well, you did, you did." Ducky said nodding while looking at Kit.

"Yea, you did well." Littlefoot said.

"<Hehe, me neither>" - Trod added.

"Anyone else wants to give it a try?" - Rhamphy asked to the remaining dinosaurs.

Kit smiled, "Thankyou". She didn't have any ideas and looked to the others to see if any of them wanted to go as Rhampy had asked. Neither of her cousins or Cory were interested and shook their head.

"I don't have any ideas, does anyone else?" Ducky asked.  "We could always tell stories if no one else has any ideas."

"Oh yes, but most of them involves a scenes of hunting down leafeaters... Do you think you can listen to scary stories, kids?" Dein asked Chomper's flattooth friends.

<I like a scary story sometimes, I do, I do.> Ducky said.

<Yea, they can be fun to hear sometimes.> Littlefoot said.

"<I can guess your stories have 'happy endings' depending on the perspective.>" - Trod said.

"Still, their should be interesting to hear." - Rhamphy added. - "Please tell us a story." - he asked the big Sharptooth.

"Rhamphy, you should really learn how to speak the sharptooth language." - Trod said and then he translated what his Flyer friend said to Chomper's parents.

Petrie dove behind where the others were sitting, "Um...me think me just go to bed now and skip story".

"Oh don't worry Petrie" Kit said, "they wouldn't tell a story where they actually caught something...or if they did they wouldn't tell us that part I"m sure" she went on optimistically.

"Well...eitherway, I'm not afraid" Cory said boldly, "So...yeah Mr. Chomper's dad, you just go on ahead with the story...if everyone else agrees to that is" he looked to the others.

Terri smiled at Petrie and said in sharptooth, <"Don't worry little flyer, if you don't want to hear the story you don't have to.">

Cyrix however stepped forward and smiled as he sat down within the group.
"Petrie would you like to hear another story? One about a flyer who brave that he wasn't even afraid to die?" he asked the young flyer casually.

"That's sound interesting. Go ahead, Cyrix." Papa Sharptooth said. Scary (for some) stories can wait, he thought.

The nervous look immediately dropped from Petrie's face and he turned to Cyrix at his proposed story. "Not even 'fraid to...die..." he whispered in awe. "Ooh" he flapped over, "me like how that story sounds!".

Kit giggled, "Now you've done it" she told Cyrix.

Rhamphy looked at Cyrix - "That indeed called my attention mr. Cyrix. I'd like to hear that story."

"<It looks there will be always more kind of stories than we can get to imagine.>" - Trod said smiling.
