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

Nope.  I'm pretty sure he knows who he is if he'd stop by in this thread (again).

I thought you said you weren't going to give more clues. I would be very concerned if someone didn't get it right after that obvious last clue you gave. :D

Still, how did I get that authority tag just because I voiced my opinion in the new changes announcement you made? You did invite members to say "yay or nay," didn't you? :P:

*Don't start a new one just yet. This is awaiting confirmation from Petrie, but I'm 99% sure he was referring to me, mainly, because of some background information tied to that last clue.

I do read other topics that you have replied to....and just got the feeling you're not one to back down, but to question.

Unless I realize (and it has happened on occasion) I've messed up, then no, I don't back out. Sometimes, I "drop it" when I come to the conclusion that nothing I say will make a hill of beans difference (like the forementioned changes topic :yes ), but I don't "back down." It doesn't mean I don't listen. It just means that when I KNOW I'm right... I just have to stick to my guns, if you know what I mean. I wonder what topics you could have read to have came to that conclusion...? :unsure:

EDIT: Something about the way I said that didn't quite come out the way I wanted it to. But how else can I put it? Oh, well....

EDIT: To continue the game, the member Tails_155 speaks of is without doubt F-14 Ace.

Apparently, Tails_155 is awestruck at my ability to hit the hammer on the head. :D

*topic bump*

Since I"m pretty sure the last answer is correct, here's the next one:

1.) bright
2.) artwork
3.) European

Two members come to the top of my head. With that in mind, I'll say Malte279.

Sky was the answer, WL. :)  Sky is from Austria, and skies can be bright.

I've got another on my mind:

1.) Has a postcount in the FOUR digits
2.) lives in the U.S.
3.) is the only member to have zero replies to his welcome thread

Can you guess? :P:

Trick question.  :lol:  :nyah

I do have a postcount as Petrie in the four digits but the board boss account has only four.  I do live in the US, and the welcome thread I made with the main account has no replies to it.  There was never a need to post a second welcome thread with this account.

Post a good one Tim.
