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

"Well wanna join us?" Namita asked Allison, which had been why she'd asked in the first place.

"Yea, you can jump in, or do you prefer the bank or shallower water?" Baloo said.  "Any of those are find. "

"Many choices, but you can choose only 1." Kaa said.

"Bank," Allison chose. She charged then dove into the water, causing a big splash.

Namita giggled, then decided to try the bank herself. She backed up and ran and jumped, causing a smaller splash.

"Hey, no disturbing the water too much" Hathi said, swimming about.

"Huh?" Namita turned to him, "isn't that...kinda the point" she laughed a bit.

"Well as the other elephants are always telling me" Hathi replied, "having fun is fine but rough housing is just unbefitting".

Namita didn't really mean to, but she laughed a bit, and then apologized, "Sorry...but it's not like we're knocking all the water out or anything" she shrugged.

"No, I guess not..." Hathi realized.

"I'll try not to splash you, though" Namita went on.

Now with both girls feeling bad, Hathi's chivalry bugged him with guilt a bit. "Well...it's ok, I...guess I overreacted, and especially since you girls are new and all" he admitted.

Namita smiled.

"Well splashing does bother fish" Shere Khan commented, not blamingly so much as just commenting. He swiped at the water again and this time a fish did come up on the bank. He smiled, "Not that it bothers my skills" he smirked.

Shere Khan smiled proudly, especially after Allison's compliment, "Well of course I was just going easy on the fish before" he stated, strolling over to sit at a different part of the bank, looking smug.

Unlike the other cubs, Allison wasn't bothered by Khan's ego. In fact, she kind of liked it.

"Well of course you did Baloo, because of course I would do it" Shere Khan said.

He'd forgotten one thing though,

"Um, your fish is getting away..." Namita said.

"What?" Shere Khan turned to see the fish floundering nearer to the bank and the water.

"Oh no you don't!" the tiger cub pounced and actually grabbed the fish again, only...unfortunately, and alot like another situation, he ended up plopping unceremoniously into the shallow bit of the water.

Allison helped Khan get back upright in the water. "You were close," she assured.

"Well, yeah" Shere Khan tried to cover with pride again, "I just...".

"Were going easy on the fish again" Namita meant it all in good fun and only laughed a bit, but the tiger's patience was getting thin.

"What'd you say?!" he asked, wheeling to face Namita who was in the shallows now.

"I...uh, nothing" Namita backed up a bit.

"Woah, woah, Khany, no need to go snapping at the young ladies with us" Hathi said, coming forward a bit.

Baloo made sure to turn away as he saw Khan about to jump at the fish on the bank, so he was sure to not see what would likely happen and perhaps help Kahn not to be to embarrassed.  

"Perhapsss he let the fish go ssso he could have the fun of catching it again." Kaa said.

"Yeah, that's probably right," Allison agreed.

"Exactly" Shere Khan smirked. In the back of his mind he thought through whether agreeing with this idea would make him look weak in anyway...but it didn't seem to, so he went with it.

"I'm sure you did" Namita said with a smile, although she knew she was lying, but anything to convinced the proud, temperamental tiger.

Shere Khan seemed satisfied, "Well, just don't any of you forget it, I'm the greatest hunter and such and such in this jungle".

"Oh no worries there, we won't forget it" Hathi said, then muttered, "you remind us too often".
