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

Go Flames Go!!

Haha, the NHL hockey playoffs are just starting up, and Calgary just snuck through a 2-1 WIN over Anaheim a few minutes ago!  Go Flames!
(I know, I know, those Canadians and their hockey! :lol )

LOL! :D I was never too much of a Hockey fan. But too tell you the truth the only sport I actually watch is baseball. {I know typical American}

Probably depends on the region of America where you live. In Minnessota where I lived during my students exchange Ice Hockey was clearly the sport number 1.

Wasn't saying that Hockey wasn't a big thing in AMerica too. Probably 70 too 80 percent of the people I knew in school talked about Hockey teams. Mostly it was either about the Rangers or the Devils. Just a sport I never have gotten into. I find that some sports I like more when I'm actually playing like take Golf for example on TV In My Opinion that is the most boring sport in the world but when I actually play it which I don't do normally I like it more.

No, don't worry about, Nick.  I like hockey, but I never get *that* into it :lol
I just like to see the home team succeed, as many other locals around here.  This city likes its Hockey, especially if we make the playoffs :P:
I appreciate it, though :wow
