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

"Mind if I join you guys?" Allison asked.

"Feel free to hop right in." Baloo said in his usual friendly jovial manner.

Namita swam over closer and came out of the water, shaking off, "Hi, I'm Namita" she greeted.

Shere Khan frowned a bit, "No...thankyou" he struggled to keep it polite since he knew he should, "I just so happen to be an excellent fisher" he bragged.

"Yes, greetings" Hathi said to the tigress, then turned to Khan, "You're what?". Shere Khan sent him a look and he frowned, "Oh I mean, of course you are, right! Great fisher!".

"And you're cute too," Allison smiled to Khan.

"I do not think many have said that to him before." Kaa said from where he was floating on the water, he said it not in a mocking tone of voice, but more in a matter of fact voice, not wanting Kahn to get angry which he seemed to do, sometimes not for any reason at all.

"Wahl maybe that's cause there's been no girl tigers around his age before." Baloo said.

Bagheer wondered how Shere Khan was going to react to this comment.

Even with as little as she'd been around the tiger, Namita knew enough to begin to wonder the same thing. She bit at her bottom lip a bit and glanced between the two as the pond seemed to have gone quiet.

If Shere Khan was shocked by the comment, which he was, he held it rather well. He frowned a bit, but that could have been being caught of guard.

"Well...good for you for noticing such..."

Namita tried to hold in her giggle at the look on Khan's face as he walked a bit to the side, only to try swatting up a fish at that part.

Letting a slight giggle out, she walked closer to Allison to speak where Shere Khan might not hear, "Just give him time, I can tell he's got walls" she smiled.

Baloo looked at the new female tiger. "I guess you've not been here to long?" He asked.

"Really, I'm kinda new myself" Namita told Allison.

(BTW, started up a Jungle Book rp discussion atleast for those interested in claiming up their characters here there http://z7.invisionfree.com/thegangoffive/i...showtopic=6608)

"Neat," Allison said to the panther. She then walked over to Khan. "Can I fish with you?" she asked.

"This is a pretty nice place overall." Baloo said still floating on his back and waving one arm to gesture to encompass the jungle.

"I...uh, sort of work alone" Shere Khan said as not meanly as he could, yet straight forward.

"Aw come on, atleast give her a shot" Namita tried to encourage along Allison's tries of kicking it off with the tiger cub.

Shere Khan grimaced, yet sighed, "I guess you could, try to show me what you got...as far as your hunting skills go" he admitted, stepping back and almost looking like he was sure she wouldn't catch anything.

Allison stepped forward. After about 15 seconds, she had caught a fish!

Namita hid a giggle as Shere Khan frowned. "Well...lucky swipes will happen..." he said, strolling back up, "but the master..." he swiped his own paw...and come up with water.

"Caught nothing!" Hathi couldn't help trumpeting out a laugh, as Khan frowned dangerously at him, "Keep laughing trunk boy...".

"Just keep trying and you'll succeed." Baloo said in friendly tone of voice and not a mawking one.  "What others say about you doesn't matter."

Shere Khan just frowned, barely holding in snapping back a comment to Baloo.

"Yes well...fishing is only one...talent" he said dismissively.

"Right" Namita said, changing the topic, she turned to Allison, "are you a good swimmer?".

"Folks have lotsa talents, even some they don't know they have." Baloo said in his usual laid back manner.
